I don't care about them so it's clearly not everyone.  They aren't fun to use.

Lock on disables are still ridiculous but that's really the only fear a little bird has anymore.

Dumbfire rockets also have 5 times the acceleration and 3 times the average flight speed, it's never been easier to use them or to use them against vehicles. Plus the SRAW is still amazing. You're right in that disables are still ridiculous, which is probably why Dice is deciding to lower the insane acceleration and turning rates that make counter measures unreliable and lead to all those disables in the first place. Maybe you can let us know how that works out since they probably won't implement CTE changes on consoles until the game is a decade old, or whatever.

I think the target is September for all CTE changes on every platform. Even the 360/PS3 are getting the high frequency network updates.

Beastie posted:gently caress yeah dude, it's a world of difference from 360. The frame rate alone took some getting used to. If you end up getting everything all set up I'll be on after 5pm central time. i might be able to play a few vanilla maps tonight cause holy poo poo this whole process have been a pain in the rear end for me apparently games only fully download from the disc only if the system is disconnected from the internet which meant i wasted 4 hours trying to get bf4 to download and stop at 96% 3 times until i unhooked my ethernet cord and did it a final time and my box came with a defective controller so i had to go to game stop and trade in alot of my old 360 games to get a new one so i can just swap em out and return the defective one to them so now thats all done im just downloading the update for the game and still need to download all the dlc

XO-4s are fine, save your money on the XO-7. The headset adapter is included with the Turtle Beaches. Skater h8er posted:xbox live features That hasn't happened to me. Try a hard reset (unplug the Xbox for a 10 count). Just get the vanilla maps, let the DLC download overnight. Most of us play vanilla anyway.

Supposedly the CTE is a part of a new strategy in EA to keep games supported long term and they'll be pushing new content and fixes to it after the September patch. So best guess is EA dissolves DICE LA after the patch.

I think they made it so the SRAW goes to where ever the last place was that you had the crosshairs aimed, even the side of a moving helo. Dicking around on the AC server, I tried to shoot someone down, missed, then went and shot 2 mans before the screen lit up with a VEHICLE DESTROYED and an SRAW triple kill  There was a solid 10 seconds between putting away the SRAW and destroying the helo.

Do the XP boosts stack ? I've got a couple and debating on if I should cash them in with the XP event going on. I unlocked the LSAT and I got a cool ACOG scope for it. I sit back, suppress fire and supply up the team and figure I could rake in some XP.

What does stack is the premium bonus and the ones you get from battlepacks, so a 50% is getting doubled into a 100% for a total of 200%, I think. Not too sure on the actual math.

Thanks to that, I got like 97 +25% XP boosts to burn through. Doesn't help that I keep forgetting to reapply them after they expire.

Things I've learned today about this game: it does not count games you leave halfway through as losses (and as such I am currently sitting on a 100% win rate), the way you unlock guns is atrocious, and I'm pretty glad I didn't spend $500 to play it. Also my computer does not like 64 player servers much.

Sorry Nick I think Xbox Live just poo poo the bed. Got disconnected from session, now I can't connect to Xbox Live. Good chopper griefing tonight. One of us shooting down air with minis and the other rolling with 25mms was pretty fun.

its all good, golmund was next anyways, and that map is so boring. I still prefer 25mm on the scouts cuz its really easy to farm infantry with them. I kind of wanna be littlebird freaks on flood zone now. if we can steal the other scout, we can just farm all drat round with impunity. or we can both sit on opposite teams and do an old fashion air truce. edit: I want to bring back the server, but I want to get an east coast one. I checked out other rented servers and a good majority of them are east coast, so I can't help but wonder if west coast servers are hosed in some way. I've even had trouble connecting to the slaughterhouse when it was "up" so I'm really starting to think it's just west coast servers. only problem is there aren't any available, only thing I can do is renew the slaughterhouse, but I can't get a new one on the east coast. I would prefer not to waste more money on the west coast ones if it's only going to be full once a month. thenicko33 fucked around with this message at 08:49 on Aug 10, 2014 |

Actually, on PS4 you can select an option that would include whatever you said into the mic. I have a few recordings of me saying poo poo like that. It only records your voice though, not anyone else in your party so it kinda sounds like you're a crazy man talking to yourself.

Or at least I have a Destiny clip saved where you can hear everyone because of that.
