As I was on post #590. :sly:

Wow .. thats some super treeage. I could say I couldn't see it because it was on a previous page .. but I'm set to 100 posts/page so I can't. :lol:

Now, am I the only one that bitches and moans about these things?
1. Some people only need a couple of bullets from a medium powered weapon (and they're not headshots) to get a kill;
2. Some people, although not having the Jugger, require a lot more bullets to die;
3. The Juggernaut perk is WAY too strong, especially compared to the Stopping Power (SP) perk. I think the percentage of increase should be equivalent (let's say 40% more for health/stopping power), so that it would require the same amount of bullets to kill someone 'normal' without the use of SP and someone with the Jugger while using SP.

I agree with you on all three of those points. I constantly find myself being left like "ok wtf, why didn't he die" when I definitely put enough rounds into him to kill him. Another thing that pisses me off is when headshots don't kill. I've had numerous deaths come from me unloading a three shot burst into a guys head and in the time between bursts get killed by a shot to the toe or something like that.

edit:

Watching my brother play reminded me of another thing that really irks me. The pistols (minus the DE) are ridiculous overpowered when you compare the amount of shots it takes to kill someone to another weapon. It'll take me 6 rounds to the torso to get some people to their Last Stand and then on my way to aim down I get killed by one shot to the torso or something like that.
 
Yep, the ridiculous amount of bullets to kill someone sometimes is what I presume to be lag, because some matches 90% of people are the same, and others 90% of people are not. It may seem you have put enough into the guy, but infact the bullets take a little longer to register than if you were playing against someone in the same country/or has a good connection.

That's why I feel they need to implement this EU to EU/ US to US thing right away and let the user have the choice to join a host that's in another country/continent.
 
I completely agree with all you guys, like said, some people take a ridiculous amount of bullets to kill. The Juggers especially tick me off its like you have to waste 30 rounds into one person before they get into their Last Stand mode and shoot you twice with a pistol.
 
LOL! Just did a 3-kill streak with my M9 pistol on Overgrown!
I was sniping but some of the other guys were getting too close, so... :D
 
I love that, when you are sniping then people see you position and think they can go in there and unload on the poor sniper but with the Gold D.E. I can pretty much take out the whole team by myself :lol:.
 
I bet, even with the M9 felt great.
Did you know that there are more golden weapons to unlock? In each category, if you complete all challenges with all the weapons on that category (Assault Rifles, Shotguns...), a golden weapon of that category unlocks.
On the AR's it's the AK-47 (:indiff:) and on the shotguns is... well, one of them. Don't know if there's more.
 
Ya there is a gold shotgun M1014, a gold Dragunov, a gold AK-47, a gold Uzi 9mm, gold m60. Yes you get them by completing all the different weapon type challenges
 
So whats so good about the gold weapon? I know it says Gold [weapon] when you're asked to pick it up .. and its got a gold finish. And its a way of saying "hey I'm better than you!" But is there anything else?
 
I am pretty sure they have increased power... kinda like the golden gun in the James Bond movie (but not 1 shot kills). I only have the Golden D.E. and I think it would be pretty hard to compare the strengths etc... Maybe it says in the stats?
 
Wow .. I just got put into a TDM and there was 5 seconds left. I was put on the losing side. The score was 700 to 250. WTF?!

Nothing, it's something like Blue or Red camo or Achievement Points and so on - makes your virtual-Dick bigger. I always keep with default color, those guys with blue/red camos are so pathetic.
 
If anyone beats this I'll be seriously impressed. :)

That happens a lot, and it really sucks, since it will count as a defeat anyway. If you're on a record winning streak, it will end due to that.
Same goes for when a host ends the game and it's a defeat for you, nothing more unfair, especially since the host gets a win as a reward for being a prick... :rolleyes:


EDIT: Aaahh... HQ on Shipment - Carnage heaven. :D Excellent score, mate!


amar - Hey!... I like the camos, they look cool. It's not even a question of blending in the environment, it just looks cool. Options never hurt anyone. 👍

Hey, don't get me wrong - I said nothing about the regular camos. But somehow I find those blue/red/gold stuff too non-modest. Like screaming at everybody: "I'm better then you, lalalala, I have shot 150 people in the head and I'm so proud of it" :)

Modesty should be a virtue... :)

Sorry if I offended anyone, it wasnt my intetntion.
 
None taken, mate.
And I'm using the blue one right now, will use the red as soon as it's available.
The lack of customization of the soldier itself makes me want to have at least an item that's different than most of what other people have, hence the use of the blue and red camos.
Plus, I think they look great under the sunlight. :cool:
 
Is there a way to know if you're hosting the game? Twice yesterday I closed out of the match and the game ended "Host Ended Game". The first time I wasn't very popular, many obscenities were being yelled into their microphones.... I didn't know I was hosting the game, nor did I know they were locally hosted games, I thought there were servers.
 
You're right, 24 deaths is pretty impressive! :rolleyes:
:lol:

Pako

Not sure if it's the same on the PS3, but you know when you're hosting when you find a game and you are the only one in the lobby. I've had it happen to me a couple of times - I just leave the lobby when it happens. And if you or someone else has a bad connection, during the game make your stats appear and you'll see the host is the only person with a full green connection strength bar while everyone else is red/yellow...

:lol:

I figured as much when I was the only one with Full Green bars, but it's good to know if I start out being the only one in the lobby. I have a 10mb download but my upload is only 768k. They should take that into consideration, especially when my wifes computer turns on and starts her 'limewire' application.
 
Hosting a game equals you being the most accurate guy out there, since all the lag (if existant) will be on the other guys. Especially if you're sniping, since most of the misses are due to 'invisible' lag, you can be sure that if you're aiming properly, you'll hit your mark dead on. 👍
 
icelt - I was watching that vid and hoping that any minute a fight would start. Didn't happen. It's cool to have the same maps you know with a different mood ( not like this, though - something real). I t's like they're brand new maps, with the advantage that we're familiar with the layout.

Here's your fight ;)


Check out the airstrike at about the 1:40 mark, you should be able to clearly hear Santa yelling "ho, ho, hoooo!!" as the the xmas ordinance drops :lol:

And I love the theme idea, especially the night setting this one uses. Are any of the standard maps set at night?
 
I believe only Bog and the 'boat' map are at night, which is a shame, seeing as it's jusl plain awesome to fight at night.
I mean, really at night, like that mission on the single player mode in which you use the Javelin (stupid name, imo).
Do any of you guys ever use the night vision on the multiplayer mode? Where?

Bog, of course, don't know why I zoned that one out. Haven't played on the "boat" map yet.

Man not being able to play this for the next week or so is really gonna be kinda annoying.
 
I almost never get into a game anymore. For some reason, and I think its due to my own internet connection, before the match starts, when it says, "Setting up game..." It just stays there. Its getting on my nerves, which is why I havent been playing lately. And then, when I actually do get into a match, half the time, the host ends it. Its so ridiculous.

Why can't us consolers have a holiday crash!!!??? That map is awesome!!!

And G.T that is a ridiculous score. wow.
 
In that game people were really peeved off with me, even my own team for taking so many kills from airstrikes/helicopters!

Shipment is only a good map if your team dominates it. If it is the other way around, it is seriously annoying, and if I'm doing really badly (like 2:1 death/kill ratio) then I really have to quit otherwise it'll eventually screw-up my stats. And to be honest, it's a ridiculous map, so I don't blame myself.

The saying "treat everyone like how you would want to be treated yourself" definitely does not apply in this game... :lol:
 
Just got the game! probably going to take me a while to get used to it! Played Graw 2 so hopefully shouldn't be too much of a learning curve...
