Dan_Dare Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Anyone got this? Need to cultivate a regular crew.
Dan_Dare Posted July 11, 2008 Author Posted July 11, 2008 OK. Pretty sure you're on my list already actually.
ViPeR Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 I've had it since last week. Bloody awesome game brings back many nostalgic moments.
dwarf Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I was thinking about getting this game for my PS3 but it looks very hard for a novice like me to get into. Looks amazing, just dunno if I'll be skilled enough to play online, seeing as it is online orientated right? I'm pretty good at shooting games but this is quite different.
ViPeR Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 Traitor!! I had the same worries to be honest. Unreal is known for it's lightning pace and i'm afraid there's no let up in this one. I was actually surprised it kept up the speed on consoles, especially online. I can't say how easy it'd be for a beginner as i've been playing it since the first one, I can imagine it'd be considerably harder than say Halo 3 or CoD4. Don't know why people complain so much about it not having mouse and keyboard support, I found the transition seamless. I guess i'm fortunate to be able to use both control styles.
Chuck Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 Looks like I wont have it till Monday. I need to shove something up royal mails bum
Dan_Dare Posted July 12, 2008 Author Posted July 12, 2008 Agreed- the conversion to the 360 pad is fucking outstanding. I've been well impressed. Less impressed by Midway dedicated servers- they seem shit. Warzone is the nuts though. Fucking awesome stuff when you get a Darkwalker and just deathray everyone.
ViPeR Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 So it's you that always gets the f**king darkwalker is it . Nah I don't mind it, what does annoy me are team mates that just piss off on their own little missions. All you hear is "Red/Blue core is vulnerable!". NO SHIT! I can't defend and attack! I prefer CTF or Deathmatch myself, facing worlds is teh shit!
Dan_Dare Posted July 12, 2008 Author Posted July 12, 2008 CTF is, on further investigation, clearly the best gametype. It's so mindbendingly intense when you have the flag, strafing like a madcunt across open ground with sniper tracers burning holes in the ground at your feet. Pure adrenaline
ViPeR Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 CTF is, on further investigation, clearly the best gametype. It's so mindbendingly intense when you have the flag, strafing like a madcunt across open ground with sniper tracers burning holes in the ground at your feet. Pure adrenaline That's definitely what I find addictive about this game. It gives you a 'rush'. Sounds stupid but I can always feel my heart beating insanely fast when i'm trying to escape with the flag, dodging shit all over the place
Dan_Dare Posted July 12, 2008 Author Posted July 12, 2008 earlier today I grabbed the flag, did a pirouette and headshotted some dude with the rocket launcher before I could even see him properly, dodging his shot and taking no damage in the process. I'm fucking awesome
ViPeR Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I find I do that turn and shoot people before I know they're there too. It's like a sixth sense because it's always a direct hit. I think it's simply down to personal awesomeness and the fact i've been playing unreal for years :P. I'll add you at some point Dan because so far only one other person I know has the game and he doesn't have live
Dan_Dare Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 Alas! I'll send you a friends request anyway- look out for Dr Oatker!
spirited away Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I've got it, and I need people to play with to! Hit me up with your gamertags'. Mine is ArcaneSpirit.
Solo Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 I've been playing it for most of the day. It's fair to say I'm pretty shit hot right now so count me in on your band of warriors.
Chuck Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 I need someone to help me with the last level in act 2. Because im a dirty cheat and i know that u can do 90% of an act on casual and the last part on insane and still get the achievement. Its quite hard, warfare on delta (? maybe cant remember) best i can do with the opposing team having two less players is the second last node for a couple o' seconds. Please.
Solo Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Cool I didn't know you can do that, ok well I need to do quite a lot to get to where you're at though. So if you're still on that chapter when I get there then I'll help you.
ViPeR Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Any of you guys up for meeting up for a team game or something next week sometime? CTF or Deathmatch. N-E vs the world type affair lol?
Dan_Dare Posted July 17, 2008 Author Posted July 17, 2008 Sounds good man. shame there's no party system in this but i reckon we can work it out.
ViPeR Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 What the shit? There isn't? Maybe one of us hosting and inviting the others?
Dan_Dare Posted July 17, 2008 Author Posted July 17, 2008 not that i know of. Maybe there's a hosting option to move to another game though. not tried it.
