Part of it is that on PS4, a lot of the players, at least the ones I met and made friends with, went back to Destiny when the DLC hit, and are still deep in it. I've been balancing my time between games fairly well, I think, but I get the urge to just submerge yourself in something like Destiny and get crazy loot.

Every time I log on, somebody is playing Destiny. This game has some pretty cool loot, too.

I'm going to have to find a (working) copy of this game from a Redbox first. If Xbox Live handles connections better then PSN, I'll probably switch over.

Sorry, guy.
Saw a message of the day about getting a helmet if I played this week (Starting today.)

I just played. I didn't get anything. Did I overlook some start time or something?

[edit] It eventually showed up.

Hey so last night I earned a 2xp bonus item I could "activate" for 10 min.

This morning it "expired" without me ever using it. What a short window!!

Reinforcement 2XP time activates automatically upon receipt and lasts for the indicated time in-match.

It does seem to convey that impression. Maybe that was something they intended to do at some point.

Go to the War Room where you see the nodes. Expand the clan leaderboard where it shows you how many CP each clan has. At the bottom of the clan leaderboard, you can switch it to the player leaderboard. This shows every single member that was activated for the clan war, their win count, and rank within the clan (the sort order is bugged).

Okay great, thanks. It also seems that it doesn't count wins for you if you don't have the BOYS clan tag in use because I know I've played and won more than 5 games for domination - either that or the app doesn't work.

It's probably not the clan tag since I took mine off at the beginning of the last clan war and haven't put it back on. It seems to be counting my wins.

I haven't used the BOYS clan tag in a while now, because when playing with other goons, a lobby full of people using the same clan tag tends to scare people away.

I think we all left after a third round of non-stop System Hacks, Bombing Runs, VTOLS, Paladins and drop-shoters. At least we got that nice win earlier against the 6 man group who were poo poo-talking us about how we'd never get more than 80 points next match after we beat them by 25 the match before; they even rage quit as the clock hit 5 seconds.

yeah i had to restart because i lost chat audio then I lost all audio all together. Also, when i group with goons, my connection goes to poo poo.. when I play solo, I seem to do just fine... no idea why that is, and it doesn't mean that im going to prefer playing solo. Just an observation because in one hour of playing solo HC KC I completed my double kill and slide kill camo challenges for that god forsaken awful piece of poo poo MP11 Goliath. only thing left now is headshots and DogFights :shepicide:

My experience is exactly the same. When I play solo my connections are significantly better than when I'm in a party with goons, and as a result my KDR is much better. I've always assumed it was because I'm on the west coast and most of the other guys are east coast and the game gives connection preference to whoever's hosting the party or whoever the most people in the lobby have the fastest connection to (or something like that).

That said, playing this game solo sucks so I'd much rather play with goons and finish bottom 3 every round then play solo and finish top 3.

I'm 50/50 on that. Playing with goons is fun, but honestly when I play with goons I'm not so good by comparison. On the other hand, I had a series of hardcore dom games earlier where I was just making GBS threads on some pubbies, having 40+ kills and 10+ caps in a single match. The rage mics were glorious, and I pretty much carried my team for a good 3-4 rounds. All those times I was pretty much dead weight, I now know what it feels like to be a Venutolo or a Ty Webb.

that I can deal with.. but the Non-hardWired System hack storm I encountered today was pure hell.. and I'm wondering why we arent causing that chaos. Seems like most of the goons that play are good enough to get a 600-1000 point streak.. so running a system Hack train on some poor defenseless pubs should be a normal thing.. almost like the VSAT chains of yesteryear.

I feel like the regular mag size on it is more than enough. I know there's other much better variants I just sold them when it still sucked. One has built in rapid fire?
