My mic seems to work for a game and then in the next I can't hear anything. I don't know if thats just because everyone switches them off or its a problem with the game though.

Yeah I do enjoy GT5P but I don't play it very often, if they bring in private races online I will probably spend more time in it.

[Gilly3]

Cool Really got the bug again, probably leave it set up tonight and play a bit more tomorrow.

So much of that in BF:BC. I reckon 90% of the times I'm killed, I haven't seen the person who has killed me. "FFS".. "Haven't seen you yet ****er"

yeah ive really got to put some time into Ferrari challenge too. then theres the time trial challenges.

its actually worse when you see it coming i think. except when you throw a grenade at the last minute and they get blown up after you've died.

[-Deadpool-]

Yeah I do enjoy GT5P but I don't play it very often, if they bring in private races online I will probably spend more time in it.

I'm looking forward to that as much as I was looking forward to Motorstorm: Pacific Rift

GT5 is going to be mad though. I won't buy another game for months after that drops

[MMaC]

its still funny to hear the "what the hell" or "where did he come from" over the mics, i know i do that all the time.

"FFS".. "Haven't seen you yet ****er"

Haha all that sounds very familiar

yeah mics are just a little shaky, thursday i had mine working for the first few then it cut out and i could hear everyone else but they couldnt hear me.

if they had online customisable races..... 10 laps around Fuji... one lap head start over scotty...

[Gilly3]

i wont be getting another game after that for at least 3 months.

[-Deadpool-]

Haha all that sounds very familiar

You were kickin' arse the other day though. I need to try something besides Assault

Damn man, like I'd make that up..

i wont be getting another game after that for at least 3 months.

We're going to have to find some time for challenges in between career progress too.. Damn, can't wait. Hope its this year.

[Smurfn]

just had a game of BF with Smurf. it was 3 vs 3 and we were defending, impossible to win that. but we did really well the match went for 45 mins. i had a bit of fun shooting down choppers (5 in a round) and Smurf was the awesome support player who kept me alive.

We did pretty well considering. It was funny when they were all killing themselves I got a couple of squad trophies, squad member and squad medic, but in games like that the support person is fairly outgunned. I ended up 28/17 I think, and you were 43/21 from memory. But I was still emptying entire magazines of the M16 into the enemies head before they would die

Its not a game I'm really lusting after, so I don't mind in this case - $10 is $10 if the condition is the same I'd would usually buy new though.




I had a game earlier, couldn't join Smurf's squad, so just had a quick Random Ranked match. Went 1/7 or something like that and quit

Sounds like a good session, will have to join you all for the next one

Fair enough, as you say $10 is $10

I saw you come online, and thought to look at what you were playing but then forgot You could have sent me an invite

i saw you come online and i thought you might have joined in but i guess a driving game took priority

we had working mics so it made the game a lot better, just took forever though.

It is heaps better with the mics working, adds so much to the gameplay

So much of that in BF:BC. I reckon 90% of the times I'm killed, I haven't seen the person who has killed me. "FFS".. "Haven't seen you yet ****er"

That happens so much, especially the snipers

Mine does that occassionally. I think it is still a problem on the server end, because it often seems to come back on again the next round

[Gilly3]

you would probably do well with specialist, especially cause of the aim sensitivity.


you would get close. 4 seconds a lap, over 10 laps.


going to be flat out career for me, car collecting as usual.

[Smurfn]

i wont be getting another game after that for at least 3 months.

I'm not too sure I will get GT5, I was a bit disappointed with GT5P TBH. But then again, it was only the prologue, so the full version should be better

He usually does

Depends on the maps really, but sniping is usually a good way to increase your k/d ratio

yeah, got to laugh at that. lucky for us their good heli pilot left at the start.

yeah i got a bit lucky though, some kills i definitely stole off you and the other guy.

its good to be able to call out the positions of enemies.

damn snipers...

mics are something ive started to expect not to work so its good when they do.

That's all part of it

It's good if you know where the snipers are, so you can sneak up and knife them

I reckon the mics work well over 90% of the time now, it is more unusual when they don't work. I still often leave mine off unless I am playing with the crew or if others in the squad are talking sensibly

[-Deadpool-]

Yup

I got into BF:BC earlier on, straight away as I saw you were in it too, but tried a few times to join your squad and it just said "Game is unavailable" or something like that, then said connection problem. Only had one Ranked game by myself after that, did terribly and quit

Hate snipers, always have in FPS'

you would probably do well with specialist, especially cause of the aim sensitivity.

Will give Specialist a go next time then

Don't think I'd be 4 seconds a lap quicker than you.. there was lucky to be a second in us over the Fuji challenges Always pretty close.

Getting excited thinking about it Took me a good 6 months to get all the cars in GT4.. and that was when I had WAY more time to devote to gaming too..

Still reckon you should get a wheel mate Should come over one day and have a go on my setup.

Haven't been in games with Mat very often. I'm going backwards on the K/D at the moment.. and quickly too!

[tr0bb]

I've been looking at a wheel but I might hold off until GT5 and get one then. There is bound to be a package deal then.

Have to remember to put some laps into both of the GT time trials, think the best I got in the Aussie one was a 58 something. Might go and download Scotty's ghost to see which corners he cuts

if we were all scrapping for position you could go at least 4 seconds a lap faster than us.

yeah i was the same, at school with so much time to spare.

[Kopkiwi]

Been playing Army of Two all afternoon with a mate, is actually a lot lot better than I expected. So many guns to purchase and you can upgrade every single aspect of the guns and armor. The graphics are pretty good for being a game a few years old.

The game play itself is awesome. Lotsa enemies but so many in game perks that it makes every battle different. Enemy AI is pretty good, they flank you and sneak up on you if you aren't paying attention.

[Kyo.]

dont think you can. only problem i have with it is that it staggers when i scroll down a page.

I like it, looks clean and is almighty fast. Just don't like the way the posts are laid out. Very bunched together.

Damm It!

im not happy with it at all
i hate how its all in the middle of the browser, i have all this unused space on both sides, its like that want me to look at plan blue background, id much rather have the whole browser to read posts.....
dosnt seem to load any faster or slower than the old look.

i mean its Army of TWO FFS!

Haha, no online co-op ey, damn. This game is 50 bucks at Big W so I thought about getting it. Read a few reviews and am still unsure whether to purchase this game or not. What are your recommendations, view or opinion on this game?

No doubt a package. I'll be pissed though if there's some awesome limited edition PS3.. like a carbon fibre vinyl or something.. might have to buy another machine

Impossible. After I cut the corners, I hack into the GT servers, run my scripts and upload a fake ghost I've coded myself so it looks clean, despite the time being submitted with my hacked run.

Hmmm, fair point. I'd still have to pass you all though - that's another story

It was awesome.. did the 24 hours races evening, paused during the day, finished on the weekends etc.. Once I unlocked the Polyphony F1 car(s) I was crusing

[MMaC]

24 hour races? you mean 2 hours right? i remember doing all those bloody endurance races on GT3 A-spec. My neighbour and I would do 20 laps each and then swap to make it go a bit easier too.

The Nuhrnrgnerenernghggeghhge Ring had a 24hr enduro from memory, I remember doing what Deadpool was doing. Pausing while I was at school, trying to squeeze half an hour in in the morning before school. Good times

Unlocked the F1 car from memory.

GT4 had the 24 hour races.

Usually did the evenings and the next day myself - and I'd sometimes B-spec either while I was at school or overnight (though never reliable enough). Cost me a race once when my B-spec driver got caught on LeMans, stuck behind a wall section after a spin and couldn't get out, so had to be pretty cautious with the use.

There were two or three of them from memory. One on the Nurburgring which I did in the Toyota Minolta 88C-V, and I think one or two on LeSarthe (actually, must have been two, because one was on the classic, another on the chicane version).. which I did in the Nissan (R92CP/R89CP) LeMans cars.

[MMaC]

.

Well thats it, i sold my PS2 and focused on my Last years of High school when GT4 came out cause im pretty sure GT3 didnt have a 24 hour race. missed all the GOW games too.

Naa, I'd have all #1 times if I had that easy of access to the times
