Yeah i have been taking a break for a bit and was hoping to get back into it but whatever. I don't play Hardcore or Hardline (if ya'll are going to put a server up for that game).  it's a shame there was good group here not too long ago, but it appears most have left or have gotten annoyed. Oh well good luck X.I.

So how many Hardcore servers are ya'll running now? 2 or 3?

If it will look like this I will not play this maps. Was dark as hell. If I would have night vision then maybe yes. 

^^Agreed. I have a hard enough time finding enemies now, much less in the dark. How can anyone fly in that darkness?

March 24th GTA V for the PC. Waiting on this

I don't play World of Warcraft simply because I'm not into that type of game, I don't need to try it, I am just not interested. I get that they will have the same number of maps when the game comes out but how many places can you play cops and robbers in? Not in a desert, not on the ocean and not in an Artic Blizzard, all 3 of which BF4 had, so where can the maps go after the city dwelling? I hope it turns out fun for you guys but it just doesn't have any appeal to me or longevity.

So if I played the Beta and hated it that's not a good enough reason to not want to buy it because it's only the beta? I don't now about all that. It's not interesting to me either, looks like a poor mans Battlefield to me with different antics and less Vehicles, less Maps and less Weapons. The video above showed that in the single player campaign you can "throw a shell casing to distract the enemy," That's pretty funny, a cop that walks around with pockets full of shell casings and a bad guy that gets distracted by a thrown shell casing. Wow haha

Most people I've heard are getting it though so you mine as well move over so we can abuse you more!

 

You can't say you don't like something you've not gave a chance to like.

The beta doesn't really count if you even played that as...

A) It was a beta

B ) It only had what, 2 maps and modes?

 

Keep in mind I'm sure premium will come out and add more expansions and modes etc.

BF5 Is not due out for a good year so they will probably make new modes and changes as players want to this one.

 

I do suspect the new complaint  will be "Man I RPG that cop car why it didn't blow up in one hit, it's a car!" lol

I enjoy most of the maps. Here lately I have been enjoying the infantry maps, I like giving support so these work best for my playing style and enjoyment and I like the China Rising DLC also

GTA V delayed till march 24th now....Shit, Fuck and DAMN

Fuck all those modes, bring Commander back,  j/k   I mostly enjoy them all. CTF can be really fun if people are into it

I cant get in either.  tried many times over the last 3 days and have been able to once.

says on my home screen: we are aware of the connectivity issues that some players are experiencing on the PC and are working on solving these problems. same ole BS

Well since we are talking about exercising and Netflix - I'm still doing the old P90x and I started incorporating some chest free weight exercises that I found in an article in Men's Health. I haven’t tried the two programs you guys mentioned but P90x is no joke. You’re not going to get big but you’ll get trimmed.  But I jog as well, I just finished a half marathon in November down in savannah Georgia. It was a fun time.

I've been watching Hell on Wheels on Netflix. It’s not too bad ( I get a bit tired of Common) I do like House of cards and Orange is the new Black as well , and My wife and I finished season 4 of Dexter, but I started to get tired of it, so I’m moving on to something else soon. Might try Marco Polo, heard mixed reviews about it

If ya'll are into Martial art films, try out IP Man. Ya'll might have already seen them, I just found them but they are great old school martial art films. I think there are 4 up on Netflix. I really enjoyed them.

GTA 5 cant get here soon enough.  I still enjoy playing commander but other than that I've been bored and annoyed for a while now. It has it's moments but the like Cats said that medic bag BS is some straight up shit.

Release date for GTA 5 on PC is January 27th, it'll be here before we know it

I have just gotten bored of it. I'm not sure what it is, but it's just the same ole same ole and the last DLC I think looked amazing (the maps) but didn't offer too much but wide open spaces. I have actually been replaying Borderlands 2 for the 15th time out of boredom and a bit of Skyrim. Waiting on GTA5 for the PC.

I want more camo and dogtags damnit!

This search yielded some odd results.

Uh yeah some weird shit there

Any other thoughts on Final Stand? I didn’t get a chance to play it but besides the Trailer looking awesome I have been underwhelmed with anticipation.

Yeah i saw a video break down of it and the guy was saying that it's based off of the failed attempt of Battlefield 2142, (which sucked) so it's set in the future, but i do think the trailer looks pretty cool.

Uh yeah it really does look awesome!

So you would buy a $600 monitor for Counter Strike?

No. Maybe for Team Fortress Classic though.

Yeah $600 is too rich for me. i do like the $300 price tag on the ASUS though.

Go BATL!

Yeah, that's the one I have.  

I had to monkey around with the settings a bit to get it to look decent for non-gaming purposes, though.

Ok thanks man. I'm looking into it for a possible xmas purchase.

Good luck guys with the World BATL event (maybe one day I will have some time and can participate as well)

let me just say the 144hz monitor will actually change your level of play.  If you bought the Asus model, hit me up and Ill show you how to install Lightboost to make it even better.

Sorry not to get off topic but I'm in need of a new monitor, what's the model number of the monitor you guys are speaking about? is it the VG248QE?

Contrary to popular belief, DMR's, Carbines, and Shotguns are not class locked and therefore must be unlocked through an achievement, usually playing with a certain class long enough. I believe it is

DMR- use sniper rifles

carbine- engineer class

shotguns- support class

 

Also I never said it was easier to kill someone in normal, in fact it is harder, which also means he should live slightly longer. normal does in fact help with learning your weapons base spread, bullet speed, and range with the help of hit markers. Without hit markers I would never know how far I need to lead with each weapon or how long I can go full auto without destroying my accuracy through bullet spread, or whether I can effectively hip fire with a certain weapon at a certain range, or even determine what a weapons effective range is through bullet drop and spread. To summarize without hit markers I would never have learned how to consistently get 20+% accuracy with an m240b. Once you learn the gun you can go into any server and be accurate with it, hit markers or not.

 

I am not really arguing HC vs normal, instead I am arguing hit markers and 3dspotting to learn vs no hit markers and 3dspotting.

I agree with you. The options on Normal mode do help out and do teach you some of the basic mechanics of the game.

He did ok today, he just had a bad day yesterday, like we all do from time to time, Hardcore is not the problem.

Well I am not debating which is better, but he clearing is/was struggling with his performance which is possibly driving him to not wanting to play; prompting the thread here, which may or may not constitute the possibility of him trying a different avenue, i.e. Non-hardcore which may or may not make for a more enjoyable experience especially to someone just beginning his adventure into BF4.

Ok this looks pretty damn fun.
