Dragon's Teeth comes with a riot shield and an EOD bot that features both a machine gun and a grenade launcher. This apparently fits in with the Urban Fighting theme of the expansion but will probably be used to absolutely piss off random pubbies because EODdy was already loving OP as poo poo on close quarters maps.

Hopefully it'll have a EMP as well. :unsmigghh:

It is giving me flashbacks to BF3 though. MAV ramming. With a gatling-gun attached. :stare: Excellent movie by the way if you like revenge flicks. Just turn it off before the end because the ending is utter bullshit.

yeah, it looked really good. I really can't wait to zap poo poo on it with my arc cannon.

I had the most hilarious round earlier today on Angel City. I (we'll my team helped a bit too) had them spawn camped for the entire round on it, to the point where we were calling Titans in on their spawn. I did my usual opening route, got a few kills, and then proceeded to call in my Titan and started killing them as they spawned for the next 10 minutes. Do the spawns not flip on this map or something? They never moved, either way, it was hilariously hosed up and it brought me back to the BC2 days of spawn killing.

I must not know the maps very well, I wasn't aware there was an enemy spawnpoint.

Active radar pulse is now my preferred pilot ability. I can actually find people to kill!

That's my favorite gun, and I hardly see it being used. With the right attachments you can full auto close to mid range and stay on target, or plink away at distant snipers and land your shots. It's great!

Wait until you get the airburst. It's a :smithicide: grind, but so worth it. Zavod is like free points if you UCAV the rooftops. I hit a helicopter on Floodzone landing on the skyscraper roof, it was glorious.

I have trouble telling pilots from grunts, so its helpful for that. It's also super helpful on CTF and hardpoint for finding campers.

It does suck on maps with wide open spaces though.

I have a vita, but it honestly doesn't get much use anymore. The integration is surprisingly good and there's actually a really good library of games (assuming you have an interest in more niche titles and/or have PS+), but I just find most of the time with my game setup whenever I'd want to play PS4 I don't really need the integration and I don't get to use it much on the go as I'm generally only out when I'm driving/at work/with friends.

It's a really good system and I actually had a bunch of fun with it before I got the PS4 (and I've also got a huge backlist of games for it) but I don't have enough situations to play outside and it's hard for it to compete with PC/PS4 when I'm at home.

Also after a long time of not actually playing (I hopped on the server a couple of times but it was deserted) I'm hoping to get in some shooting tonight. I still have a couple random unlocks I need from NS (on top of that stupid UCAV) so I may be running some weird outfits to get what I need.

Remote Play PS4 games on the Vita is great for games that have simple controls.

Seconding a bit of what alansmithee said. I've got a Vita, love it, but I don't use remote play. I'll multitask TV with the wife and vita because the pick up and play / standby is easy enough. With PS+ and a few purchases I've got way more gaming than I know what to do with. I got mine last August through eBay and I've picked up some $15-25 amazon specials as well as some PSN/PS+ sales, and my 32GB card is almost full.

Compare games and take a look at my list of Vita games, I can answer any questions about them if you'd like. If you have PS+ now start the 'purchase' of any Vita titles, you'll get the license assigned so you'll keep the free plus titles even if they go back to pay. Velocity Ultra is going off PS+ soon, and it's a lot of fun.

Edit: In case anyone cares, the Wireless Gold headsets are ~$86 on Amazon right now. I paid $100 and it was well worth that price point.

I downloaded all the currently available vita fee titles so I can claim those if I ever get a Vita. The memory cards seem pretty expensive though, do you think the borderlands bundle is worth it, since it's $230 for a vita, 16 gb of memory and borderlands 2, or should i just try to find a cheap used vita on ebay and buy a memory card separately?

I like my Vita 1000 but you should look for a 32gb card minimum. There's already been one price drop, and I think 64gb cards need to be imported. Any extended plus subscription will end up eating space. Killzone mercenary was 3GB, FF9 1.3GB, Ys another few hundred MB...it just adds up.

Next time I see you on chat we can annoy the rest of the 4ce with Vita chat.

the vita cards are expensive because sony needed a proprietary format that didnt just turn the system into homebrew heaven. i love my vita. it's not great for battlefield remote play because of the analog sticks, but it's passable. It's great for Trials, though, and i was using it last night to play MLB the Show with a buddy (didnt have two ds4's). With ps now coming out, I'd say a vita is even more worth it, but I'm using a 200 dollar handheld to play loving chess, so maybe I'm an idiot.

also, i just realized if i hadnt gone all digital after the last of us, remote play on the ps4 would be absolutely useless.

whaley, im going to try getting on bf4 more. ive been somewhat down lately, so i've been absent and unable to focus on mens shooter. add me at chamber9verse32

The Borderlands 2 port is supposed to be horrid and I pretty regularly see Vitas on Criagslist for around $100, so that might be worth checking out over buying the bundle.

I've seen Sankersizzle and scott playing PS3 BF4. I haven't played since the beta and I think Chalupa Joe is on PC now, but everyone else must be on PS4 by now.

Vita's pretty cool but if you're not into really niche Japanese games or Spelunky there's not a lot on it. Right now mine is a $200 portable Spelunky player, with occasional stops for Tactics Ogre and PS1 games. I'm happy with it but if that stuff isn't your thing or you don't care about playing PS4 games on it there's no reason to own one.

edit: oh yeah and if you buy an OLED Vita, those don't even come with a memory card fyi
