My thoughts exactly @Zechs Merquise Even down to the initially wanting online co-op, up until I got my hands on it!

Finally got my first ever Streetpasses today at Play Expo! First time I've taken my 3DS out with me to be fair though (in over a year, haha).

@ReplayEvents Awesome event guys, well put together and thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you!

It's the same for the other consoles.

No way, I'd have thought we'd have had a thread for sure! I'll be picking this up! Love Tekken but I've hardly played it for years. Hopefully with it being on a Ninty platform will rekindle my love for it!

I know, I was half asleep at time of my posting and it didn't quite register, haha.

Are you guys watching the anime of Sword Art online or reading the manga? I'm reading the manga and am up to speed on everything so far. Awaiting chapter 11.

On an SMG if you're going for Primary Gunfighter I'd change the Fore-grip for Fast Mag. Given that SMGs have such good hipfire performance as standard you'll be utilising it more often than normal (especially with Laser Sight attached), lessening the need for aiming down the sights and with Rapid Fire attached you'll be hitting your reloads much quicker than normal, plus Fast Mag gives you double ammo too which negates a need for Scavenger on your beefed up gun. Given the role of a Rush Class being in the face of the opposition as much as possible, you want to minimise the time in between your ability to fire. I'd advise something along the lines of: SMG Laser Sight Rapid Fire Fast Mag Primary Gunfighter Perk 3 Greed Ghost or Lightweight Cold Blooded Engineer & Dead Silence

Weapon balancing is much better in Black Ops, the damage mark ups are generally the same but in MW3 there are some definite inequalities in gun stats... but there are still definite stand out weapons in both... Famas & AUG in BO and ACR & MP7 in MW3 for instance. Yet in MW3 you also have the insta-death Akimbo FMGs, this is down to poor gun balancing for sure. In BO, when dual wielding SMGs, the gun stats change to balance, whereas on MW3 they don't.

Health has always been the same across all the CoDs, it's always been 100, unless you added on things like Juggernaught or the Painkiller Deathstreak. I don't mind the changes to Ghost, even when I'm playing a traditional sniping role as more often that not I'm moving to change up my firing position.

I'd recommend buying a proper gaming headset, I'm going to be doing so, the advantage they confer is huge! You'll not believe how well you can pinpoint where people's footsteps are coming from on CoD when using a proper gaming headset... definitely worth it given how much use they'll get!

ZombiU (Packed in) Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 I'll pick up a few others after going through the prestiges in Black Ops 2. Gaming with the N-E Clan comes first!

Pretty decent commentary here, he makes a few decent points and highlights a couple things in the vid.

On Domination you get 2 rounds. At the start of the first round where you spawn and the enemies spawn will be swapped over for the start of the second round so that both teams get to play the map from each side. Each round is timed and whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins.

As posted on a previous page, here are some classes I can see myself using: TDM: Primary Weapon (Assault Rifle) - Quickdraw, Fast Mag & Suppressor Primary Gunfighter Perk 3 Greed Perk 1: Hardline Perk 2: Scavenger Perk 3: Dead Silence & Awareness Point-streak: UAV, Lodestar/Orbital VSAT, Canine Unit Domination/Demolition: Primary Weapon - Millimetre Scanner & FMJ Semtex Tactical Insertion Perk 2 Greed Perk 1: Flak Jacket Perk 2: Scavenger & Toughness Perk 3: Tactical Mask Point-streak: UAV, Guardian, Orbital VSAT (may swap out Guardian for higher streak reward). CTF: Primary Weapon (SMG) - Laser Sight Tactical Insertion Perk 1 Greed Perk 3 Greed Perk 1: Lightweight & Ghost Perk 2: Cold Blooded Perk 3: Extreme Conditioning & Dexterity Point-streak: UAV Knife Only: Combat Knife Combat Axe Shock Charge Perk 1 Greed Perk 3 Greed Perk 1: Lightweight & Ghost Perk 2: Cold-Blooded Perk 3: Extreme Conditioning & Dead Silence Point-streak: UAV, Hunter Killer, Orbital VSAT. How about yourselves guys? Any thoughts about how you may set up?

For myself I'm rocking Scavenger, I'm confident in my ability to not worry about the Millimetre Scanner, Treyarch have said in and interview that with the Millimetre Scanner they're tuning it in a similar way to Ghost whereupon it works best against players that are stationary so if you're moving (depended on how fast you're moving too) then the highlight of you within the sight won't be as prominent. People used the Heartbeat Sensor in prior games and that didn't bother me. Opposing teams tend not to get aircraft against us either so I'm not worried about that. But with the Pick 10 system, why not have both! Here's one for you Zechs... Primary Weapon (Assault Rifle) - Quickdraw, Fast Mag & Suppressor Primary Gunfighter Perk 2 Greed Perk 1: Blind Eye Perk 2: Cold-Blooded & Scavenger Perk 3: Engineer (on a previous post you said you liked the look of Blind Eye & Engineer from their tiers so I included them)

One thing I would like to point out to the N-E Clan is that with the changes to Domination and how it's a timed game and you swap sides now, at the start of the game the race for Flag B is now more important than ever! You have to capture 2 flags as quickly as possible to get yourselves the edge. So when we play Domination, we need the majority of our players going straight for Flag B. Now it's teams of 6, we can leave 2 at the flag we spawn at, take 4 to Flag B. 3 of those 4 jump on the flag and the other takes up a position close by to defend enemy routes to B. With this we'll get an early advantage in the game! Also, on a side note, with the changes to faster reloading/aim time/steady aim now being attachments, if you've kitted out your gun, once you use it's ammo and swap out for another weapon you'll no longer have those abilities. Don't forget this and so if you want to keep them during the game, don't undervalue the Scavenger Perk. It's probably more valuable than it ever was!

I'd like Nuketown 2025 to be in there as Nuketown is an alright map, it's just overplayed. Generally speaking I prefer the medium to large size maps as you can approach them with a more tactical edge, but every now and again I do like the full-throttle feel of Nuketown.

I'm really looking forward to this I must say!

I've pre-ordered Black Ops 2 for the Wii U today from Grainger Games... cannot wait!!!

So only at Prestige 10 is everything unlocked... depending on how getting extra Custom Class Slots works within all this, I may well be going all the way this time!

1. Yes, I was going to pick this up. 2. Yes, I have changed my mind. I'm not paying the same price for one third of the content! 3. EA have seriously made a huge error here and it just leaves me dumbfounded. I just don't know what to say to this... it's hilariously retarded!

What takes the piss, as Zechs said, is that we're expected to pay full price for ME3 when the trilogy comes out on other consoles not long after for the exact same price! That is completely fucked up right there. We're getting a third of the content for the same fucking price? Fucking rip-off! Screw you EA!!!
