I got some bomb rear end cleat looking shoes last night and I'm pretty sure it's because I got a multi kill with the goomba stomp. :getin:

Edit:gently caress the sac build. I'd rather run and gun with the wubgun or the kf5.

Comedy option is the duel LMGs.

BOYS clan war roster is set. I suggest Pillow Talk does the same so that you can exclude the members that do not own this game while keeping them in the clan roster.



What is Clan Wars, how do we participate and what are (supposedly) the rewards? And does any clan want me? (I'm better than average.) PS4.

did they fix the bug where emblems were getting reset on prestige with 1.5? It is very important that I don't lose the last 15 minutes of my life




Also if you unlocked gold camo for a weapon under the current criteria of 50 attachment-less kills, do you still keep the camo after the patch that increases it to 200 kills?

Go to your armory and look to see if there's a timer on them.


Also Rei I was being serious. FFA or Infected are the best modes to chill out and play while waiting for others to join up with.

If it's anything like Ghosts, essentially we'll be playing a game mode in order to rack up wins to capture that specific game modes node which in turn gives us points over time. The more points you have the better your clan is doing overall.

Reward wise we should get vanity items like new dress up stuff or camos/playercards.

The reward is that other people will be upset at having less points than us while not giving a poo poo about the points ourselves.

It's not enraging or even frustrating it's just like, kinda depressing to see this is how people choose to play these games.

Like one in every ten games I get to have a fast-paced fuckin' arena shooter style match where people are flying all over the place and everything's moving and things are just fast and frantic but like, literally every other match I play is people laying prone in corners and hiding behind fuckin' rocks like they're terrified to actually play the game.

That's something that will never cease to amaze me, you got all these cool rear end movement options and NOPE, just gonna sit here in this corner like a bitch.

My whole life just flashed before my eyes! Dude, I sleep a lot.
So does anybody else get gunshots firing from other people that doesn't really seem to come from anywhere? It was just constant tonight with me and I could not figure out where the gently caress it was coming from

Any time I was near a teammate I could clearly hear theirs coming from them, but there was just random bursts of gunfire that sounded like I was shooting it, and no it was not coming from my gun.

I feel like you should have realised your mistake when you typed "TDM."

Solo objective modes can be hilarious fun. Up until this weekend I'd never played with goons or anyone outside of my best friend so pubby life is a charmed life for me. Dom with them is delicious chaos where usually you and one other person run from A to B to C whilst the rest of your team does loving nothing or you race from A to B to C alone whilst the rest of your team tries to keep the points locked down by camping in places which I'm pretty sure can't see any of the flags. You get to be The Main Man and capture points whilst your teammates somehow get less than 2 captures when you start next to a flag twice per game and also get less than 5 defends.

Except on Comeback. Even as a pub lifer I cannot loving stand Comeback Dom with those assholes. What is it about that map which turns people into flailing spastics?

Ok I just described why playing with pubbies is awful but I kind of like it so in closing gently caress TDM.

Spoon Man posted:

Definitely make a clan and invite both XBone and 360 players since XBL is considered one platform and they can all contribute to clan XP and clan wars.

BOYS is the existing XBL clan, but has been near or at capacity since 2011.

For anyone that is emblem challenged, you can join a clan and use the clan emblem! Clan members can also submit emblems for the leader to use/save/discard so you can use clans as a way of sharing emblem creations. I know as a clan leader, I can save the clan emblem to my personal list. If members can also save the clan emblem, the leader can just swap the clan emblem regularly for members to save a variety of solid entries.

From experience I'd say it's highly preferential in regards to what map your playing on. I've gotten scores in the range of 30-5 with it on Ascend due to the long sight lines and playing to the weapons strengths but I'm not even going to bother with it on something like Biolab.

I can get behind this statement but I still think it needs a damage buff to actually be all that viable.

The noise it makes is so meaty and great though.
