Haha TLOU is insanely hard to get decent at for some reason. I picked it back up after the story dlc came out and managed to get zero kills in about 45 minutes of play.

I mentioned it a couple times here, but I had a conversation with the guy what crashes MAVs into people and makes them upset:

Battlefield Trolling Conversation with Zelmarked

I figured since the BF3 console thread was where I found out about him it would be appropriate to post this here, it's mostly about his process for choosing people, getting footage and how he got into doing it. It's also set to video of Jihad jeeps and EODdy kills in case you would rather see that.

Nope, all you bro. It sure as hell wasn't our other LAV. Those of UofK fuckers were working nicely in tandem.

Next time I'm switching. I can't play on bad teams after a hard work day.

Also, Zuni rocket LAV fights look awesome from the outside.

From what the Symthic (or whatever) forums dug up the MAAR looks like it's one of those special weapons you pick up on the map.

If everything goes according to plan (which it usually doesn't), my ascension to the xbone begins mid to late june. Looking forward to jetageddon on 64 man servers.

Also, Titanfall, really good. Do you still play it, Mail? I'll probably pick it up too for Xbone if you guys still play it.

Great news! And yeah, I'm still playing Titanfall. The first DLC is coming out this month alongside a free patch to the base game that addresses my three biggest remaining problems with the interface. Respawn have been unbelievably responsive to the community, and I want to support that. I'll probably buy their DLC after all.

Hooray! Someone on Golmud was actually daring to jetlord us the other day. I need my protection in the sky.

We still play Titanfall. We're playing a lot more BF4 now since the 64 player servers work once again, but once they release the new Titanfall maps I'll be back on it.

Yo Nick and others on the fence, looks like starting July 9th the Xbone is going to be selling for $399. Looks like they're finally doing the Kinectless SKU.

Surely at this point, and without hyperbole, Spencer is doing the equivalent of a surgeon putting lipstick on the body of a 7/10 girl, who was in a horrific car accident, and then asking if you want her as your gf.

Kenect menus are great, expect one of the recent updates kind of broke mine and it doesn't respond to my voice only my wife's. It also pisses her off to no end when I walk into the room and it signs me in and it doesn't for her.

It's more like he's reversing a lot of really bad business decisions. So I guess it's closer to putting a meth head through rehab, getting her meds for her various STDs and then offering to sell her to you for "Friend" prices.

Basically I'm saying you should just build a PC.

From what I've read, making Netflix and Hulu free weren't definite as of yet, but I hope it is since that's always been a stupid decision to keep them behind a paywall. As far as the Kinect-less SKU though, it's stupid. The Kinect is an intregal part of what makes the system unique, in my opinion, and if you have $399, you might as well buy the complete system for $499.

They're already in the strong running to be the laughing stock of E3 again this year, but then again, all of E3 has degenerated into a cheesy B-movie anyway. Less than a month to go to see how corporations will destroy our hobby this year!

Protip for PS4ce: if you haven't used the share button since the last system update, do it. You have to go through the tutorial screen again before it will record your gameplay.

Secrets to enjoying Flood Zone:

If you're in an LAV, keep control of the highway.

If you're infantry, ignore the rooftop points.

Once I stopped fighting over B and C, I started enjoying the map much more.

Also, if you get the transport chopper you can either road kill snipers on the roof if they're enemies, or push them off if they're teammates. Either way is wicked funny.

What are you doing if your aren't at B or C? A is horrible to attack/defend and when you finally take it someone might not show up for the next 10 minutes. You get sniped relentlessly at D and there's pretty much one reasonably place in the convenience store to cap it where you don't immediately get wiped out by a LAV. E is okay but it's not very interesting and if the water's up your still a big swim from everything. In fact god help you if you're anywhere but B or C if the water's up.
