    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I've just been playing Domination nonstop on hardcore. Not the fastest leveling. I want to try to get into Conquest or Rush more, but vehicles always piss me off as I like to play infantry and don't play engineer ever.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    From what I understand, these just have placeholder stats. I notice it has a very fast bolt action, but it seems very innacurate when barely moving, and slow feet per second speed and more drop compared to the SRR. Not sure which is better TBH, but I am not liking it much yet, hoping it grows...

    League Of Legends

    So I've never played a MOBA. I don't know much about them, but I'm not a big strategy gamer, which is why I never tried them. Anyways I am gonna try LoL or DOTA 2 or HoN and see what this shit is all about. Here is my question though. I am leaning towards playing LoL because it's said to be...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Yeah crashes may be more linked to certain hardware or servers at this point. Me and the wife literally both play every night for about 3-4 hours straight with 0 disconnects or crashes. The first few days were bad but they really took care of that with patches from our standpoint. The only...

    Call of Duty : Ghost

    So I've never played any CoD multiplayer before, but I have beaten and enjoyed all of them on single player (working on Ghosts now). I've always been a Battlefield player though. But BF3 I spent 90% of my time in Close Quarters, and I have spent literally thousands of hours on CS 1.5 through...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I get that in single player randomly every level once or twice, but never in multiplayer. I did some google searching and it sounds like it's been around since BF3 and there is no fix for it, but I didn't dig super hard as I don't really care about single-player.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I only played beta for a couple hours. I did improve, but I mainly am just getting used to the new mechanics still. One of the biggest things too is I don't know the maps yet really, I have been hopping around a lot. One thing I really do notice I hate, is all these noobs forget how to mark...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Don't feel bad. I rocked at BF3, normally 2to1 or 3to1 ratios nightly up until tuesday. Now in BF4 I am hard pressed to maintain 1to1. The game just has a different feel, recoil, and server detection still seems a bit sloppy.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Yeah it's really server dependent. I notice 64 man servers tend to be worse than say 32 man. I am thinking it is more on the server side anyways, will be nice when they patch it, should be as solid as BF3 then.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I got mine like 30 minutes after I preordered, in an email, but before that, I went to my games list in my account and under EA Origin, the key was there.

    Guild Wars 2

    I started on Blackgate last week, but I have a RL acquaintance that plays on Sanctum of Rall so I deleted my chars and started up there. I didn't know this at the time but as a bonus I got to keep my money/purple triangle things. I am enjoying this game much more than my first few days...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    TBH probably one of the best MMO engines ever created. I think it's more along the line of very long beards, just like very long hair. Their animation system would just not support it with physics and whatnot. Not like there are very long beards in WoW outside of dwarfs, etc.

    I just ordered a new 3TB HD and really wanted to reload my SSD with Windows 8.1 as I will have to reload a ton of games/etc anyways, but I cannot find a cracked version anywhere. I'm assuming it's just not cracked yet. Anyone know a working source? I am too cheap to buy OS's. That mouse...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Speaking of 2142, do people still play this? I had it at one point but lost my box/disc far before origin existed, and would love to purchase it on sale sometime and rip it up, but wondering if there are even still servers. I hope Battlefront 3 is BF4/2143 with lightsabers and blasters. I...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Nothing new there, they have remade levels multiple times throughout the series. FPS's do this. Counter-Strike has been riding on the same maps for like 15 years now. Normally I hate DLC, but rather than just having the same old maps imported in, $2.50 a map, for remakes, with better...

    Beetlejuice 2

    It will just be nice to see Michael Keaton Beetlejuicing it up again. Always been a fan of Michael Keaton. I am tired of remakes like Total Recall and shit lately. It seems like they are just remaking every movie and losing what originally made it good. At least sequels with the original...

    Beetlejuice 2 in the works, with Michael Keaton. Screw all these remakes like robocop, they need to just continue to make sequels with the original actors like this. Please don't suck. Tim Burton to Direct 'Beetlejuice 2': Report | Movies News | Rolling Stone

    Guild Wars 2

    I should probably just take more time to read up on this game. I didn't follow it at ALL before launch, and even before this. I figured it would flop, didn't like what I saw, and was stuck on Tera at the time. So I had 0 interest in it, and 0 intent to buy it, so I never read shit about it...

    Yeah I'll just have to get more into it. I literally did the first field I think, and just now realize I am supposed to go to the capital looking city or something? I want to try a greatsword, because I always love those, and this sword and horn just looks dumb. But what can I say, I am only...

    Ok this game is weird so far. I made a warrior and am running around just slashing shit over and over. Where do I get new gear and weapons and stuff?

    Guild Wars 2

    I always play melee, never casters, so I am initially pulled towards Assassin class due to stealth and liking WoW rogues, but I read a thread that they suck in pvp and pve. I do not want a gimped class. So should I play a Warrior instead? Those are like the only 2 that really stand out to me.

    So on 10/20 only it's 29.99. Think I may just pick it up, just because it's got no sub fees, can play it whenever.

    I agree, Dec is way too far out. I am still enjoying myself in game, but with only the content we have now I could see myself running out of shit to do before then. They should break it up into 2 patches or something if need be. But then again, supposedly there is new content already in the...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    So up until patch 2, my fx 6300 had horrible fps, like 5fps. After patch 2, I got like 30fps but horrible fps drops like every 3 seconds I'd drop to 2fps for like 1 second. I tried something I read, and went to task manager when the game was open, and set the priority of BF4 to low, and holy...

    I dunno man, I played FFXI for years. Now that is unresponsive. Yes okay, off GCD abilities during animation lock can be fucked up sometimes, but I find if I press it half way through the GCD, they always fire. If you press them while your initial animation is going, yes it's not going to go...

    Stuff like that, and the picture above, are what piss me off the most. Some random shit some dude posts about some game, and people believe it like any ol Joe Schmoe can just hack anyone's account. Chicken little much. Just because some random dude named Sauser says that you can type some...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    FFXIV doesn't come across as trying to clone WoW to me. It's not based around factions or PVP, it's got an actual storyline, cutscenes, multi-classes, etc. The only way it is like WoW, is that it has quests for leveling, and instanced dungeons. To me it actually does improve on some things I...

    Lol wut? Source? I am pretty sure I read somewhere that some WoW fanboy's kid's mom's brother's uncle's dog's neighbor can type in some binary into chat and it will force your character to give them a virtual handjob and a moneyshot of all your gil to them. I'm all for calling a game on it's...

    Except it doesn't need a "miracle patch". They did get it right, it is a great mmo, easily the best since WoW. Pretty much everyone here has said it is a fun/genuinely solid game and was well worth their money. How many other MMO's have people said that about. The core game is great. It's...

    So my wife just informed me today that she is pregnant. To most people this would be a big deal, but to us it's like a miracle. Reason being, my wife had 2 kids 9 years ago, and then had her tubes tied. We never had the money for IVF, so we really had no other options. Apparently these...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I have put 100's upon 100's of hours into BF3, but playing BF4 feels like shit. Instead of taking BF3 and beefing up the graphics a bit and adding mechanics, it's like a whole different feel to the engine. I don't know how to explain it other than it's like going from CS to CoD in regards to...

    They should have made 6 man parties, I agree, but it really wouldn't have helped a whole lot. I really don't think there will ever be a solution to this, in any game. It's not that people don't play tanks because they aren't fun or can't do anything else, because in WoW, for a while my prot...

    Yet a ton of oldschool MMOers including myself are still having a blast. Much more than any other MMO since WoW. A lot of us don't necessarily want all your WoW features. Maybe we want gameplay that harken to the EQ/DAOC era. It's nice to have that oldschool MMO feel, like a community and...

    Eh, the culling issue was acknowledged and is currently "top priority" for SE. Also really, if you follow the instructions around here, to turn off other spell effects, effects while moving, and names, honestly it won't cull for you at all. I did Odin and Behemoth now like this, and saw them...
