I'm going to go ahead and load the 45 minute metro game from last night for all those interested on YouTube to show why I cut things to 4 or fewer minutes. Also why I don't usually record Metro games; no jihad jeep.

Edit: Watched the video. Maybe some other time, I can save this one.

Reviewing the video from last night I have both the moment you became a dart fan and the moment you got sort of upset because the game spawned you with the wrong weapon and you "had to shoot them more than once" to kill enemies.

You were on the team much of the time, but you switched me I think three or so times. The funniest thing was you hardlocking, joining the party again and then not the game to preserve the numbers you had before the lock. We finally got you back in because the teams were at a 2:1 ratio and we needed you to balance them. Then we won and you had even better numbers than before.

Edit: it should be noted that I am pretty much recording every game on the Playhouse at this point because I can't describe some of the moments in the thread. Arhnold/you taking a helicopter from the top of D. Peak and dropping it with a full team straight down was amazing to watch from the ground and I was kicking myself for not recording at that moment.

Kinda hard to be in the fun camp when you can't kill for poo poo thanks to stupid loving tweaks. (Not counting frag rounds and USAS but you hopefully get what I'm saying)

The numbers are saved at every death, the only thing you lose is the chance to be MVP*

*unless you're pro as hell

Seriously though, goons are somewhat immune to griefing, you kind of have to surprise them to really get them (like the chopper on Davamand), and when you get them... It's just perfect.

Same here. I thought the game was great before the patch. They just needed to fix the FAMAS and the USAS Frag.

Now I cant hit poo poo with any weapon and the MASS Dart is even more broken than the Frag rounds. I mean it is fun to use but its pretty rage inducing when you are shot from across the map every three seconds.

Wish the same could be said about some of the MW3 goons. Some of them have taken to appearing offline so you can't join in progress.

Some of my best moments are killing other goons, like my miraculous RPG hit on you in nosehair when I managed to tag the very edge of your tail rotor. I wish I had a way of recording for that moment. That had to have been the luckiest shot I've ever pulled off.

Just happened to me too. I was in your squad too- I was trying to follow you a lot and learn how you move through the maps. And keep you filled up with ammo. It was about time I went to bed anyway, but definitely a lot of fun for my first time in the Playhouse.

Thank god I'm done exams friday and can start to play more. I had an awesome game on Bazaar running the SKS with iron sights the whole round- I think that's my first time breaking 9k points. Took a bit to get used to the thing, but when you get it right it's a sweet little firecracker.

I made it almost through my first Metro round without a hardlock. Right as we won and it did the screen wipe to show the scores is where it finally froze.

This is a huge improvement on me hardlocking at least once a round on that map.

All the spoils of a wasted life

Hardlocked before the metro game was over and then I was put in the opposite team during Nosehair.

It is very frustrating playing against goons after being teamed up with them so I just quit.

And having my whole squad darted by Jackson888 out of a helicopter was basically the last straw.

Shooting down helicopters with a tank is just so rewarding.

And did this patch tweak the repair tool too? It seems so hard to repair vehicles now.

This patch let weapons that are mounted on rails like the M26 and M320 benefit from the hipfire accuracy bonus the laser sight gives. The heavy barrel is in the same accessory slot as the laser sight so it's now unintentionally giving the M26 a passive stat bonus.

More hilarity: someone posted in the PC thread that equipping a suppressor makes you not show up on the minimap if you use the mortar.

So I played for the first time since the beginning of March tonight.

If that's how it's going to be from now on, I don't know if I'm going to play anymore. I don't have you guys on my friends list so that we can be on different teams.

Especially since it appears DICE and/or Sony managed to lose the proof that I already downloaded the Karkand pack and apparently I either threw away the redemption code or I never got one (but I've played all the maps )so I'm not going to use my beloved PP-19 anymore. I'm pants-on-head retarded, nothing to see here.

So did I on canals, Jackson's darts are sharp!.

Anyways I tried the deadly dart for the first time tonight in that Metro game, I thought it was pretty good, but I'll probably stick to the G3 (which was also the first time I used that and it was pretty awesome).

Good games though nice to see a lot of new faces (which I didn't realize were goons until they posted in this thread!).
