I've been trying to get the chopper points for gun upgrades, but no one knows how to fly the god drat thing. I mean, I don't either. But you don't see me pretending I can fly it.


EDIT: I'll be on for a while tonight if any Xbox folk want to party down and get double points together.

I always spot, and it gets me killed so much. I don't know why I do it.

Oh hey, a guy just came out of the room 5 feet away, ill spot him and oh im dead.

That's why you take the guy out in close quarters yourself and save spotting to point out vehicles, snipers, and other enemy targets you see from an unengaugeable range.

Dear diary, I got another erection today at work. SO embarrassing, but kinda hot. The CO asked me to fix up his dress uniform. I had stayed late at work to move his badges 1/8" to the left and pointed it out this morning. 1SG spanked me while the CO watched, once they caught it. Tomorrow I get to start all over again...

It is a fun game and has no lag and minimal bugs in my experience. It plays a bit differently from other BF games due to not having tanks or jets but cars are fun to drive and some of the new modes are pretty cool, I was kind of on the fence about buying it myself but am happy I did. There are some issues with gun balance though, and you die a bit quicker than you could in BF4 because the guns seem to do more damage.

I just applied for CAWK and CUMPolice (this is an official goon clan right?). spray painting is like a new level of trolling in this stupid game. It's way more fun to not give a poo poo about the score and torment useless snipers all day.

Also :holymoley: Hotwire is like free money, just get in a car and drive in circles. You guys need to jump on this before :dice: 'fixes' it.

CUMPolice are the PC clan I believe, they are heathen splitters.

Tormenting the snipers is great fun. I particularly like it when they all line up on that bridge in that Everglades map, so you can run them all over. Or shotgun them in turn, because they don't realise those gunshots they hear are the sounds of their teammates dying. Again.

Yah, it's really grown on me. I'm playing it non-stop any moment I get. The cops robbers thing is really great, and the vehicle spam is minimal. The maps are amazing.

Someone pointed out that its only $40 for all platforms over at Amazon right now. Definitely worth that price.

It's $40 for the vanilla version and $50 for the deluxe edition. Going to Best Buy tomorrow and am going to try to make a price adjustment happen since the game hasn't even been out two weeks.

I noticed this last night and was very saddened by it. Snuck up on a sniper and just kept injecting him thinking somehow it was missing till I gave up and hit him with a bat.

Hotwire is hilarious. Tearing around the Everglades while my friend leans out the window with an RPG he got from the trunk, blowing up cars with four guys in them.

I'll try getting my clips to my pc, but I have some really fun ones. I zip lined to the building in the bottom left of the downtown map during hot wire. It was really high up and by the city bus in the intersection I could see a tiny dot moving around. I haphazardly tossed an incendiary towards it, and watched it sail out of sight. Moments later it exploded right on top of him and I got the kill.

I was so surprised I almost forgot to record it.

Anyone know if it's possible to sell the ps4 gold battlepack code that came with the game? I've got one for 3 packs that I was hoping to get 5 bucks for but I'm not sure if they made it one code per game or something.

It's possible to get them in Conquest at certain meatgrindery points (like the motel area on Dust Bowl), but frankly TDM is the best place to grind them. I played just enough of that poo poo-assed mode to get my MAC-10 and then never looked back. I usually hate TDM modes in shooters, but it's extra bad in this game thanks to the overcrowding and horrendous spawn issues it breeds.

Hell, I think the maps are too small, period. I refuse to touch Conquest Large because it feels like the map was never intended to hold 64 players.

That's really my only issue with them though. These maps are pretty good, overall.

Eh, they're pretty good size wise. In conquest 90% of the people congregate around the 5 flag points. Making the map bigger or smaller doesn't really effect that unless you started adding more capture points.

Spawning has only been an issue in TDM for me. I play conquest large 99% of the time, and since there isn't ridiculous vehicle spam like in BF4, the maps work really really well.

I almost exclusively play Heist and I'm pretty sure the maps in that game mode are smaller versions of normal maps. And I like that size. My favourite map so far is The Block. Always action everywhere :clint:

The block is great for heist. I almost managed to win the game for our team with 1 ticket remaining. Taking the case all the way from the vault frantically running and getting stopped a house away from the drop point.

The block is no where near as lovely as I expected it to be, mostly because you can blow some poo poo up if you try. Hollywood Heights is the clusterfuck on all the maps with so much blocked off.

The Conquest maps are action packed with 32 players, 64 has to be a clusterfuck.
