Kaftan Barlast Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 BFBC2 is very sniper-centric. You will absolutely rape other classes in hardcore mode where you can instakill from across the map DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

Hurlshort Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 BFBC2 is very sniper-centric. You will absolutely rape other classes in hardcore mode where you can instakill from across the map Yeah, I don't seem to be doing much damage right now with the default sniper rifle, I had a few hits before I got an actual kill. In previous games, the rifle brought guys down to the verge of death, so I'm not sure how it works here. Also, I don't get the health bar info at all. One of the problems with buying on Steam is I don't get a manual I can read on the toilet. How the heck do you use medkits in this game?
Serrano Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 First of all you have to unlock them by leveling up to a high enough rank as a medic. Then you select it like it were a gun and throw it down on the floor. Medkits heal every friendly, yourself included within a radius over time. This applie to the soldier's ammo kits also.
Monte Carlo Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Am in a bit of a fallow period games-wise... apart from my Alpha Protocol playthrough. Even Company of Heroes isn't doing it for me ::sigh:: I'm d/l the demo for King Arthur the RP Wargaming thingie to see if that wets my whistle, but I'm also liking the idea of being a sniper in Bad Company 2.
Serrano Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Try the Crysis 2 multiplayer demo Monte. You can be a Sniper with a Predator cloaking device.
Syraxis Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Played the EQII free2play client. It plays a lot like wow (which is a good thing compared to EQ 1). That said, a lot of features (classes, chat channels, etc) are locked as an encouragement to subscribe. It's decent so far but it'll take some time before I even start to consider.
Tale Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 My Retribution Collector's Edition just arrived. Maybe I'll finish up the first two parts. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

I hear ya. After Fo NV I just don't have much staying power with games. Play about ten minutes then lose traction. "It wasn't lies.

Wrath of Dagon Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) I'm playing an NWN2 mod called The Maimed God Saga. Really like it so far, does a great job of making you feel like a cleric of Tyr instead of the usual generic character.

GreasyDogMeat Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I'm playing an NWN2 mod called The Maimed God Saga. Really like it so far, does a great job of making you feel like a cleric of Tyr instead of the usual generic character. Its out? Cool, I was waiting for that one. I'm going to have to play some NwN 2 and some mods sometime soon.
Monte Carlo Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 So I tried the King Arthur Role-Playing Wargame demo. The camera is horrible. The battles are a pale imitation of MTW2. Even cranked up to maximum settings on a machine that exceeds the specs the unit detail is mushy. The art is nice, like the campaign map but it didn't grab me, there's nothing there you can't really do with the (free) LotR Total War mod or the Grand Campaigns mod.
Ice9 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Yeah, I don't seem to be doing much damage right now with the default sniper rifle, I had a few hits before I got an actual kill. In previous games, the rifle brought guys down to the verge of death, so I'm not sure how it works here. Also, I don't get the health bar info at all. One of the problems with buying on Steam is I don't get a manual I can read on the toilet. How the heck do you use medkits in this game? It has been a while since I played, but the HUD has very drastic differences between hardcore and normal servers. Maybe that is why you're not seeing some things you're expecting. Everything was beautiful. Nothing hurt.
Gorgon Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) Is that because Ashley started calling you skipper? I am not a skipper. Garrus is not a mighty sailing man. Wrex isn't a millionaire, nor Tali his wife. Liara is not a movie star. Joker has never taught in academia. You, Ashley, are not frickin' Mary Ann. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE How do you get to the hot lezzo action bits. I play as a female and every single conversation and cut-scene with Miranda seems to designed with the object of finding new angles to show off her arse. Maybe she doesn't swing that way. I definitely do not want to see Garrus naked but he's the only one one who has shown interest so far. Edited March 4, 2011 by Gorgon Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

I definitely do not want to see Garrus naked but he's the only one one who has shown interest so far. Garrus is the most tolerable romance in the game. He also doesn't get naked, but here's what he'd look like if he did. Edited March 4, 2011 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Malcador Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Decided to get Rift and play with it for a while. Interesting way of class design they chose, you can get a decent variety. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Monte Carlo Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 BFBC2 is very, very good fun for a shooter. It looks great too.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Where's his... uh you know... Maybe it's like a dog and it's... inside. Being attracted to Garrus is the equivalent of being attracted to the alien in Alien. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back!

Liara can be as well if you have Lair of the Shadow Broker. I have no idea if that requires an ME1 romance with her or not. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Hurlshort Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I'm getting a bit better in BFBC2, still have an atrocious round here or there. I did get a lucky headshot on a guy from 700 yards out, that would be my best kill so far.

I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
Rosbjerg Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I've added both of you on steam. Fortune favors the bald.
sorophx Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 you guys want to play L4D sometime? that's the only other mp game I have except HL2 DM Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.
