  1. Yeah Conquest is won with ground vehicles, as it should be. Choppers can catch flags but are sitting ducks for rpgs which is a one hit take down. Tanks roll in to defend the APCs and Jeeps that get their first and clean up if there is any threat left while the fast movers go on to the next objective. BTW I noticed I got assists that count as kills from non squad mates last night... so without looking into it more from what I gather, Squad assists are automatically counted as kills reguardless, but regular assists in the 80 range and higher also count as kills.
  2. I haven't tried. You can't really listen to the complaints. The maps are pretty big, and are multi layered. A lot of buildings have several floors. And then we have Caspian and Oman coming up next?. People are going to cry no matter what.
  3. Kotaku posted today that they are planning on giving players some "bonuses" when everything is fixed. They'd better hurry up because Double XP weekend starts the 30th, It would be nice to get in longer matches than the 12-15 minute domination round. If you have two evenly matched teams going against each other, domination is actually more fun than just crushing the other team... the matches can go on 30-40 minutes because most of the ticket loss is from kills as either team rarely controls all 3 flags and the control of two switches hands a lot... They did a better job with putting the flags out in the open, with less flags you can corner camp capture. You really have to expose yourself trying to get them like the one in the lobby on Zeba Tower rather than the pool area or that upper floor watchtower-like area. Even the ones that are inside a smaller room there are at least 3-5 entrances and you can only keep 2-3 of them in your field of vision. As for the bonuses, I'd imagine is some free gold battle packs with premium members getting double xp on top of that. The link kotaku posted was just to the origin store with no news. There were a lot of people crying about the battle pickups in this game. So far I've picked up mostly modded shotguns... these things are are decked out weapons that aren't much better than what you can make when you spend time with one firearm to get all its unlocks. I found a USAS-12 with a green laser, and holo sight. It was watered down from its super ultra mega over powered BF3 counterpart, I think it was equipped with slugs to prevent you from spamming it abusively... nothing really impressive, and carrying it around with you doesn't help you unlock more for a weapon class. The only thing its good for is extra ammo.... I don't know if this was a glitch, but as soon as I hit switch weapon, it went away. EDIT: MWAHAHAHA!! I've unlocked the RPG! Be warned chopper pilots, I shall make you rage face in Conquest now!
  4. If I listened to Raptr, I'd say Eppy replaces sleep and dreams with League of Legends. :P

      It's just a little site/widget that keeps track of all your gaming accounts stats and achievements. When someone on your friends list is playing a game it pops up similar to steam.

      Yea, just another app for tracking stats and a gaming community (they also offer some nice rewards for certain games as well). I only joined because it was the only way to track things on my GameSpot account and stuck around. Speaking of which I should probably go befriend Epples on it.

      Ahh.. I might check that out. I've seen where people have raptr ratings on twitter, but never looked into it.

  5. True, but it also could swing the balance of power on Oman, you cant base rape when you have a whole squad of stingers can you? Of course jet jockeys are going to cry hard about it when people start unlocking the set, and you have to unlock the field upgrades per class. If you unlock anti-tank on assault, that's the only class you can use it on. They focused a lot on making you earn certain things instead of taking the easy route. The only thing that carries over each class are grenades and non exclusive weapon type unlocks. If they don't do it later in this game. I can see BF5 letting you customize your field upgrade. Id make one with Ammo, Quick Unspot, Sprint, and More Deployed Explosives. These battle backs are really neat. You get them every so many levels. I got a few from the start, then rank 5, 7, and another one at 10 coming up. 5 and 7 were bronze packs giving you 3 standard items. Rank 10 is a gold pack. The gold pack gives you five with a chance at 1 rare item. As a premium member you get a gold battle pack once a month I believe when i looked at the calendar. Apparently you can buy them all too. People tend to get pissed off at this stuff, but really who gives a crap? None of it really gives you that much of an advantage, and if they want to take the fun out of unlocking them, more power two them to waste their money. When I earn them through game play, it has some sorta of value to me, same as completing a hard assignment.
  6. I should have probably mentioned you can open and close the hatches at will, and when you die with the hatch closed then the area is inaccessible. I like it though because you dont have to worry about getting knifed. I also learned that back knifing has a decent range, if you're running behind someone you can hit the button and you will lunge out and grab them. I guess the length of time it takes to complete the process is the balancer. I've saved a few teammates that were in the hug of death, and I've been shot trying to get dog tags. Unlike COD where you can knife from a mile a way and the air bleeds while the person dies Field Upgrades you start with the defensive set, I had the shadow set too, but I dont know if this is for premium members or not from the get go because its 3rd on the list after Defensive. Defensive: LEVEL 1: ARMOR: Reduces incoming Damage to the Chest by 10% LEVEL 2: COVER: Decreases amount of Incoming Suppression by 50% LEVEL 3: FLAK: Decreases damage from explosions by 15% LEVEL 4: QUICK REGEN: Decreases time before Out of Combat Heal by 20% <This is amazing Offensive: LEVEL 1: SPRINT: Increases maxiumum Sprint Speed by 10% LEVEL 2: AMMO: Increases maximum inventory of Bullets by 50% LEVEL 3: GRENADES: Increases maximum inventory of Hand Grenades by 1 LEVEL 4: REDUCED FALL: Increases height you can Fall without Damage Shadow: LEVEL 1: QUICK UNSPOT: Reduces time you are Spotted by 2 seconds LEVEL 2: SPRINT: Increases maximum Sprint Speed by 10% LEVEL 3: REDUCED FALL: Increases height you can Fall without Damage LEVEL 4: STEALTH: Undetected by Motion Sensors except when Sprinting Anti-Tank: LEVEL 1: MINES: Increases maximum inventory of AT Mines or M2 SLAM to 6 LEVEL 2: ROCKETS: Increases maximum inventory of AT and AA ammo to 7 LEVEL 3: MORE DEPLOYED EXPLOSIVES Increases maximum deployed Explosives to 6 LEVEL 4: FLAK: Decreases damage from explosions by 15% Mechanic: LEVEL 1: FAST REPAIR: Increases speed and sabotage of Repairs by 35% LEVEL 2: FLAK: Decreases damage from explosions by 15% LEVEL 3: COVER: Decreases amount of Incoming Suppression by 50% LEVEL 4: REPAIR UNIT: Occupied vehicles will slowly Repair nearby Vehicles
  7. It'll be interesting to see the early stages of PS4's + perks, there were no new free games Tuesday because the console came out Friday. Even then, there isn't enough games in the library right now to make free. They'd run out by the end of this month unless more games become available in the next two weeks.
  8. Man I can't wait for N++! Its in the PS store listings and I got excited only to find out its just the trailer I wont even wait for it to be free on PS+ when it comes out. I got $10 in credit for buying the launch edition PS4 so that would take care of most of it. And the game is being made by a team of 3 people, so I don't mind contributing to their cause for a game that I love but tortures me with its insanity.

  10. As long as there are more over the top scenes than what is being shown in the trailer, I'm good... If that's all the best scenes and the rest of the movie is meh, I'll be pissed. I hate when trailers do that.
  11. A few more notes: Sniping is a pot luck with the first rifle you get. High center mass seems to be a instakill but I've had plenty of hit markers. There are a few maps with high vantage points, and you can close off the ladder access via a hatch, but none of your teammates will beable to get to it as well, and if you die, then that roof is no longer accessible. I was assault one round and my whole squad was sniping from the roof, I ended up with 3 defib ribbons with how many revives I performed. As recon, you can't unlock all the sniper rifles by using a carbine or shotgun... you'll only progress unlocks through that weapon type as you use it. (Crap... I have to go through all that to get my GOL Magnum arguably the best sniper rifles in BFBC2). Every class has access to, Carbines, DMR (designated marksmen rifle), and shotguns when they are unlocked. LMG, Sniper Rifle, Assault Rifle, and PDW are exclusive to their respective class. I did my first counter knife yesterday... its as easy as pressing one button. I'm not sure if its O or whatever you have as your melee button all the time or it prompts a random button. You have ample time to hit it and there is no point to knife from the front, because unless the other player just completely sucks, you'll lose every time... which is funny because my first successful knife was from the front. When a teammate is knifing someone from the front or the back, the enemy player becomes invincible so you cant steal their kill... however its wise to keep your cross hair on them on frontal knifing for the reasons I just listed. If an enemy is the knifer you can take them out before the process is complete. Field upgrades are similar to squad perks in later ranks on BF3, except there are in sets now and you can gain each tier as your squad progresses... once everyone in the squad dies the field upgrade resets to zero. I don't think people on PS4 realize how important it is when "LAST MAN IN SQUAD" pops up on your screen... its even more crucial that you don't die so someone can spawn and the field upgrades stay intact.
  12. I could have sworn I made a topic about this before. I couldn't find it in search... anyways..
  13. Here is your Trailer for BF4 Second Assault which will be available for Xbox One at Launch, and later on other platforms. Second Assault features BF3 maps with sleeker visuals and new Levolution events. Wow the sand storm on Oman is going to be crazy... Parcel Storm's rain levolution is awesome with turtles, it really sounds authentic how the rain hits the ground and your head. I can only imagine what Oman holds. I watched some Live Stream of Metro last night... although I don't like the map, It did look a lot better visually. The roof caving in is going to be interesting. I wonder if they will add choppers for this... at least a little bird for each team. This post has been promoted to an article

    Here is the third trailer for Robocop!
  17. Ah, ok: http://www.primagames.com/games/drive-club/news/driveclub-playstation-plus-edition-explained I assume since its a new major release, that is why its a partial game. I'm pretty new to the PS+ world. I'll probably buy the full game instead, its one of the few racers that has peaked my interest in years since the PS2 era. Perhaps Contrast is a filler for DC for PS4 users? I dunno. How many games of the month does PS+ normally run at one time? There are two currently.
  18. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/8465-Call-of-Duty-Ghosts LOL @ the end.
  19. I'm missing something. Was it being offered for free before PS4 game out? Because I don't see it in the store... Then again it was delayed for a year. That is an interesting point. There would be no point for keeping PS+ on PS3 in the long run because dev support will end one day, and it wouldn't make much sense from a consumer stand point to keep paying for a product that gives you nothing since you can play online for free. I think Sony needs a better exit plan than just having everyone lose their games when PS+ support comes to an end or just keeping it going and making people pay a yearly fee for a library of games. Since support would end, they should just let people keep the access to the games. I never had an original xbox so I don't know how it worked from xbox to 360, but I think its interesting I can see what people are doing on PS3 on my PS4 via friends list. I wonder if XB1 will do this with 360.
  20. It seemed to be the whole game. It didn't have any plot holes, and it had a beginning and an end. Drive Club? Isn't that a PS4 only game? Its a disc game too...
  21. legend of legendary heroes was added to netflix... looks interesting. I might have to check this one out.

      Nice. I'll def give it a shot then.

  22. Final Verdict: This game isn't worth $14.99 The story was great, the plot twists were cool, but it was WAY to short... I think I beat it in less than 3-4 hours. I missed a lot of collectables and luminaries, but there weren't many puzzels and I dont see a need to go collect them all... I think this was a crowd funded game... I'd like to see a longer sequel with more puzzles and more challenging ones. It kept getting better and better then all of the sudden I was at the end. LIMBO is a 5-6 hour game, but its nonstop puzzles all the way through, this game has some downtime for exploration but there were only 3-5 "secret" puzzles. Its worth the free download and one play through though.
  23. I love the SCAR-H so much right now, It will be a while before i try out the M416 which was my hands down favorite in BF3... I'm getting back in form.. I took down a group of 3 with one mag in the SCAR-H... this is insane... Squad Wipe ribbons FTW!
