It is annoying, especially as people are invincible while falling into last chance, and you essentially die from a person who should already be dead!!!<br /><br />On the point of Black Ops, I am really enjoying it. A few issues with lag, which I hope can be fixed with a patch> I heard about the care package glitch, but am yet to actually see it in action.Grimy Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589676754400329519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-8714526459538736732010-11-10T21:31:01.728+10:002010-11-10T21:31:01.728+10:00I can't tell whether its frame rate hitches or...I can't tell whether its frame rate hitches or lag. Either way, it still runs a crap load smoother than the majority of the competition. Apparently players have already found an exploit for infinite care packages. <br /><br />Thing I hate most about CoD is the community; not a single person plays for the team. For example, the Second Chance perk allows you to bust out a few shots from a pistol before you expire. Upon upgrading the perk, players can revive you. Not a single f$&cker on my team would revive me, even when I crawled over to them. In front of them even.

Essentially the rougher spiritual descendant to Jet Set Radio. Could have done with a little more polish, but it was great fun and feature-rich. Pocket Gamer loved it - http://bit.ly/aTB9Vq<br /><br />I think OF2:DR will be a breath of fresh air. I need some seriousness in my military games, to the point of pedantic, hair-splitting realism. And until I get a computer that'll run ARMA 2, OF2:DR will fit the bill. That and Apache makes me grow a horn the size of an Exocet. <br /><br />But this is week Blacklight dies for everyone else, I suspect, on account of Black Ops. Funnily enough, MAG players have begun migrating to Blacklight because it offers the same sort of gunplay.

I liked the third so much because I put so much time and love into the first 2 (the second especially). <br /><br />The reason why I say it is GOTY for me is that I can literally just cruise round, finding spots and pulling lines, for a solid 2 hours, without getting bored. And it is so gratifying when you find a good spot and pull off an awesome move.Grimy Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589676754400329519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-4030877220409626512010-11-08T18:30:48.537+10:002010-11-08T18:30:48.537+10:00Thanks Taz.

I enjoyed that game immensely, and still jump on every now and then to pop a kick flip or 80.<br /><br />No worries Taz, I was pumped for it when I heard about the US release and was pretty bummed out when it was stated that it was US only. Hopefully they fix the server issues, but I can't find a game where I am even 2 bar to save myself.Grimy Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589676754400329519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-54076511272923265832010-11-08T14:22:30.706+10:002010-11-08T14:22:30.706+10:00I feel like a real arse for having hyped BLTD for ...I feel like a real arse for having hyped BLTD for you, Sambo...only to have this PAL region release be a bit borked. It could also have a lot to do with Australian servers and whatnot. Let's be frank, with the times they are not. <br /><br />However, no damage control here. They should have worked these things out before release. It's not perfect, and I suppose people used to dropping into games immediately would kick Blacklight to the curb for its admittedly lumpy matchmaking and lag. <br /><br />Worth searching for a good connection in Blacklight in the interim, though - it ranks up there with BC2 for me in terms of online shooter experiences...however, the sound of the reaper is coming, given that Black Ops is pretty much here. <br /><br />But congrats on the 100th post, Trits! What an effort! In answer to your question...best game this year? Probably RUSE. It shouldn't work at all on PS3, but it does, and does admirably. Just waiting on a patch, funnily enough, for multiplayer stability. <br /><br />On the inbound for the rest of the year? Apache: Air Assault (Demo is glorious. Realistic mode plus cockpit view = massive military-themed horn), Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising (Picked it up for a song and am going to go through it on the realism mode - no HUD, no ammo counter, very intense!) and NFS: Hot Pursuit - which I came around on for some reason. My thoughts were initially rather cold...but after a few runs through the demo and utilising the autolog feature...it won me over. <br /><br />It's no Burnout 2, but it'll do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-23739915386221373542010-11-08T10:37:40.537+10:002010-11-08T10:37:40.537+10:00Yeah I am hoping they fix the lag issues, because ...Yeah I am hoping they fix the lag issues, because it is actually a pretty fun game.
