We congratulations pubbies, we had a few good days, but now youve gone and shat yourself and we can't play together anymore. Just had a gang war on the docks. Every single player apart from me and a friend of mine were using mini-30s. loving hell. Is free aim any better? Do you guys think this will clear up? I don't play many online games, let alone at launch. Will it pass?

I haven't touched soft lock and most of the gang wars played this weekend are nothing but Mini-30 fests with the stray guy using a pistol/SMG combo. I wonder if it's more of a weekend thing, lately it seems multiplayer games go to poo poo on the weekend then go back to normal during the week.

Trigger Warning: Mini-30s. Most of my Gang Wars/Large TDM games have featured people using Mini-30s with varying degrees of success. The easiest, most effective solution I've used to this is just to plot out a different route to where I'm going, use that one, dealing with whatever I encounter along the way and work my way around to the side/below/behind wherever the sniper is and shoot them in the back/head/arse. If you're playing on a Free-Aim playlist, which you should be, you shouldn't have any more trouble dealing with Mini-30's than you do with any long-gun or most of the small guns, for that matter. EDIT: Smoke grenades aren't among my most used accessories, but if you're really struggling with flanking/don't know the maps that well use them for misdirection and movement.

So I found every clue and got the trophy for it, but it doesn't seem to have unlocked the kill-cam for every enemy cheat? What am I missing here? Edit: Welp, suddenly it's unlocked. Nevermind then. Thanks guy below me! Cyra fucked around with this message at May 21, 2012 around 08:00 |

I've had stuff like that not unlock before. Strangely, it unlocked when I went into chapter select and play some random level. The option appeared for me after I played a level.

Unfair, some of you guys have had the game for almost a week now. I still need to wait 1 week and 4 days for the PC version..  You guys still like the game? Not bored with it after a week are you? Torabi fucked around with this message at May 21, 2012 around 08:29 |

When folks aren't playing this like 3rd person Medal of Duty Warfield Battlehonor: Tier One Honor Calling, it's a shitload of fun. That, and when matchmaking works. E: Was it tonight or yesterday some dude blew someone up with a grenade and said LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S LAUNCHING OFF AGAIN? Cause god drat that was a loving high point. Speaking of explosives, I put the fire power or whatever burst on my comedy RPD class and holy poo poo the grenade launcher you get at level 3 launches grenades that stick to people

Medal of Duty Warfield Battlehonor: Tier One Honor Calling is for girls, Call of Honor Dutybattle Warfield: Recon Elite is where it's at. ~~ xXxsn1pErClutchxXX ~~ "We will fight them on the beaches." ~ Eminem E: I really like the angle they took with gang wars, trying to give it some sort of narrative. Obviously there isn't a lot to it, but having the little bits of dialogue with the reporters or Max gives it just a bit more flavour. The music too, there aren't too many multiplayer portions of games that do music well, or at all, and I appreciate the kick it can give my kickin rad 2 storie shoot dodge.

Mouser.. posted:Also screaming "Yooooouuuu!" like a gangsta spooky ghost provides endless entertainment. This was an extremely amusing way to end my MP3 session last night (even if that Ghost guy did keep killing me). YOOOOUUUUUUUU!!!! Unrelated note: does anyone else find the aim controls to feel a bit 'slow'? I've played through the singleplayer campaign and the aiming just doesn't feel as fluid as, say CoD. It almost feels like lag on changing where I'm aiming - it takes a while for the crosshair to start moving, and by the time I get to my target I end up overcompensating for the 'lag' and aiming past it. Any tips for tightening up the aim controls? In case it's relevant I'm on 360, and have my X & Y sensitivity at 9 and acceleration at 10.

Any tips for tightening up the aim controls? I think this has to do with the fact that Max actually has to move his arm. Not like in CoD where there's just a floating gun. Also, someone said that the acceleration thing was reversed for some reason. So 8 is lower than 1??

MZ posted:Anyone found a sweet spot between aim sensitivity & acceleration? I'm finding my aim kinda going all over the place (Free Aim), not sure what to do... 4/4/10 seem to work right for me (PS3, controls may be more precise on 360 so you could raise the sensitivity there). Set to acceleration 9 if you need a bit more granularity.

That could be it I guess - just seems a bit odd that shifting his aim a couple of feet left-to-right has the same 'inertia' as pulling a 180 to try and shoot someone behind you...

It sounds like the less gear you carry in this, the more mobility you have. Is it feasible to go completely weaponless like in FEAR? My favorite part of that game was racking up 20+ kill streaks before being banned for using "exploits". Otherwise, this is my planned loadout:

My favorite part of that game was racking up 20+ kill streaks before being banned for using "exploits". I don't know if you can go completely weaponless, I haven't tried. I do have one class where I only carry a two handed weapon. When you're running with a bag in one of the Gang Wars modes you're completely handicapped that way since you can't fire a weapon. You can however bitch slap the poo poo out of people with the melee option and there's some extra XP to be gained for doing that.

Well that certainly throws a wrench at my Metal Gear costume plans for PAX....I really don't want to shave my head though.Anime Schoolgirl posted:Yeah, free aim pretty much makes mini-30 CoD jerkoff whoring impossible, and you see more people with dual pistols and actually using bursts. I wouldn't say it's impossible but it seems to be a lot closer to "as intended". By that I mean if you can get close to those people and have a short-medium weapon on you should have an advantage. I say "closer to" because it still seems like they have it too easy in close situations. I'm loving Payne Killer lately, all the other multi's are slowing becoming maddening and depressing as people get ahold of better guns. I feel a little guilty running with the RPK I bought just because I have nothing better to do with my rear end ton of money from looting max/passos. I hope they introduce more "silly" gametypes in the future. Intel&Sebastian fucked around with this message at May 21, 2012 around 16:01 |

How much does the Lucky Coin affect the money looted from Max/Passos? You could make even more  from it if it increases money looted by 30% or more.

SporkTSI posted:How much does the Lucky Coin affect the money looted from Max/Passos? You could make even more Problem is I'm not really seeing a whole lot of use for this money I'm piling up. I guess I'll buy all the weapons for the hell of it, but I'm probably only gonna be using the pistols. The attachments unlock through leveling the weapons, so no use for the money there.

Anybody have any trouble with a few of the kill cam trophies? The Rickty Boat trophy wouldn't unlock for me regardless if I took a few guys down before the leap or all 7 during the bullet-time jump. And yes, I am in Free-Aim. Also does covering Passos with perfect aim in the stadium allow for restarts? The fact that I didn't get it makes me think no, but hey, maybe it's just glitchy.
