just came back online for me

myres take me forever to load uo after i try and sign in 2-3mins wft

ran into my first booster today
beat him so badly he messaged me 5 hatemail msgs after the game about how i suck caus ei used bullseye and tag (i didnt tag at all in that match) and something about having no skill unless i snipe?

i promptly told him that i didnt tag and that maybe he shouldnt use a sniper on ambush (smallest map in the game).he kept mouthing off so i just said 1v1. so whats he do? he makes a 1v1 game with no weapons, no berserk, no radar, no abilities (except leapers) and deadeye only. anyone whos played with me knows i hate sniping and i suck at it. i still won the game

wast graceful and he made it only up to 10. i won 10-9. and most of his kills were through lucky spawns that would happen right behind. and his lepers did a good job of keeping me from regening while he spawned

Gawd Banded... I watched a 1v1 Raistlin put up on vid and it was so boring! I think he even fell asleep during the commentary.

lol thats why i was glad it was on ambush. at least that way there want much "searching"
and it was only up to 10

double post but its important

I would think if the list was posted the update is out no?

I still cant get onto Myres so...idk

Hmmm, nice. I'm gonna have to give it another go. I'll still probably get chased away by noobing spammers, but I'm in it for the long haul.

I'm not too confidant on a next week release, though. They've been saying that Sony's had it since mid October and would only take a week to comb through it. Well, let's hope they're right this time. lol

I'm really hoping the 1.06 will address the turret issues. I'm guessing the this patch address the wildfire a little, and if I'm understanding it correctly, will slow the rate at which people can lock on and walk away. I think they need to make turrets nothing more than meager additions to the game. Either make them really easy to destroy, or do minor damage. They need to be put in line with the rest of the option methods to kill people. Right now, it only takes someone patient enough to earn them and then it's smooth sailing afterwards.

I want more matches based on skill. At the moment, if I'm lucky enough to go up against someone with skill only, I usually come out on top. But, that's hardly the case. I'll go against someone spamming a turret, while silently killing me from behind with an atomizer, and if I manage to get away I turn the corner to have a wildfire down my throat. lol. Spend every match trying to not be locked inbetween all this. lolololol

Sony just got the patch recently. They WANTED to get it to Sony in mid October, but they didn't have it finished until a few days ago.

Turrets, Wildfire + Ammo Beacon. Stuttery game play. Low framerate anyway, even before the framerate drop kicks in.

Demolitions, grenadier, scavenger (with 40 mm grenades), atomizer

I'm thinking, with all the people who said that they'd wait for 1.05 before trading in R3 or not, that it not getting released by SONY until after MW3 hits could be quite an advantageous business strategy...

Or am I a little too jaded.

Also, the way I understand it, weapon balancing doesn't need to be done in a patch with R3... It allows mini-updates to be downloaded as it connects when you start multiplayer, like Uncharted 2 had with its 'Live update' feature that allowed ND to do their Lab playlists. Turrets could be nerfed quite easily, I would imagine.

well i have decided i will not be remnanting again .
normally i love to just keep leveling up but its just such a grind in this game
and unlocks at low lev make it worse.
i have had double negs the whole time and it just not fun for me .
the timing was shite tbh with Mw3 only two months after R3 this game will die
off massively.

I'm never remnanting. It has taken me this long to reach Level 34 and l cannot face the thought of starting again. That said, I may never reach Level 60. I didn't reach it in R2.

I'm getting close to hitting 60 for the first time, but until they get this update out I have no plans to play R3. And then depending on how the patch does or does not work, that may be something that doesn't change.

I just had a few games and TWO in a row gave me the no-abilities bug in which your ability icons don't even show up and no matter how many kills or deaths you get the score shows up as 0-0.

Question: Does Assassin have any benefit in DM? I've got the 2-star version of Assassin so I am assuming that while the disguise has no effect, does it still keep you silent and off the radar?

I've only managed to reach level 33, almost 34 myself. Hoping the patch helps the cause as well. The no abilities, 0-0 issue is being adressed in 1.05 which should be out soon.

It will be hard to play if they don't fix it, and MW3 being out (very soon).

@ETW - It keeps you off the radar.

Assassin level two, FOR NOW, actually PUTS you on the radar as a white arrow. It will be fixed in 1.05 though.


Also, I'm not remnanting again. Level 1 remnant wasn't bad because I was trying to get medals and that was before EVERYONE unlocked the cheap stuff. Now, however, I can't stand being stuck with sucky weapons and abilities and getting killed by someone with demolitions or a turret 99% of the time.

THIS, as in you are ALWAYS on the radar because you show as a "friendly". (>_<) And...cosmetically, you appear as the other species. LOL.

so.....is 1.05 out yet?

Nope, but my newest vid is! LOL. If you are interested in a Double Negs (30-2) FFA on Trainyard, that is. (^_-)d If not, NEVERMIND. (T_T)

awesome, my double neg vid!

im not going to lie. double negs is pretty fun to do. i think they should have made teirs for the negs. like whos going to run around with bloodlust (only regen if you get a melee kill) on or the one that put you on radar all the time if there isnt a bigger bonus over sloth (woopty do, you run a little slower) the only time it sucks is when you have a big weapon like the atomizer or wildfire. if youre running bullseye youre fine
