    Yep, there are three phases to the Rush games. Once the attackers take the first A and B you move onto the next part and so on.

    Haven't played in a month or two now, should really get back into it. Main reason I haven't is cos I can't find my mic... anyone know if there's many using them?

    cool thanks for clearing that up. How do the defenders win tho?

    The attackers start with a certain number of "tickets" (dont know the technical term). The defenders deplete these "tickets" by killing the attackers and holding onto the A and B stations as long as possible.

    The tickets are then replenished when A and B are destroyed and the game moves onto the next phase

    Almost never hear mics when I join random games. I came across maybe 2 squads in the last month or so that had people talking in them.

    Ah right, was probably just when playing with boardsies that it was used then... looks like I'll be back sooner than I thought

    This game is awesome, still trying to get to grips with it. If i quit a game half way through, do i still get the points I earned?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,128 ✭✭✭thorbarry


    AH i didnt know there was a difference with the pre-owned and new copies. I got mine pre-owned and dont get the VIP code If anyone has a spare one (unlikely I know) I'll take it off your hands

    You might have a hard time finding a spare code but you can still buy VIP access but it's fairly expensive i think.

    Yea, i think so. Cant believe, If i had of known I would have bought a new copy. Whats the vip maps like anyway?

    The maps are usually just rejigged versions of already available maps. For example one of the ones released this morning, Nelson pass in conquest mode, was already available for Rush mode but they just took that map and adapted it for Conquest mode. It's the same story with other VIP maps. They're usually just recycled.

    That said with the VIP code people are getting them for free so it's hard to complain too much.

    Seen this last week and was really impressed . All footage taken and edited from game (mostly MP) , but when you think about it the game looks beautiful so 80% of the movie is there .
    Some creative editing , sound track & patience .. You get a great movie clip.

    M

    (ps)A little off thread , but here is another funny movie clip from an old favourite game of mine RSV2.

    I sorted out my connection issue with BC2, my games were lasting about 5 to 10 mins, I had to put my ps3 ip into a dmz, heard of it not working for a few people but I tried it and it seems to be holding a good connection, might be handy to try if someone is having similar issues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,128 ✭✭✭thorbarry


    played this a bit more today. Almost at L4, im happy with that :)

    The game's great, im even thinking of buying the VIP code


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,117 ✭✭✭✭Leiva


    C4 on RUSH mode is the new rage ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,280 ✭✭✭Glico Man

    Ye this was happening a lot yesterday I was playing with 3 friend and one of those is in America and it happened to all of us :mad: also when we got back into games we were all level 1 with none of our gun's or special's and if you changed your kit after you died it deleated your score!!!!

    But on a positive note finally got all of my pin's and only need another 10000 point's before I reach level 30 woohoo:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭EGriff


    I've been playing this fairly regularly since launch but I only started playing as a medic in the last few days. It's like playing on easy mode, if you see someone they're dead. No wonder you see so many medics running around.

    I'm seeing lots of squads full of engineers lately too though.

    I got teamed killed last night by a squad member whilst i was running to board a Tank , he wanted it so shot me in the back .:rolleyes::mad:

    Soooooo really pissed I changed to Medic .
    Spawned on the little bitch and killed him , revived him , killed him, revived him, killed him , revived him , killed him ...got kicked from the game .

    Started a new game only to be ported straight back into the game I was kicked from :D ... found him again (different squad ) and killed him , revived him , killed him, revived him, killed him , revived him , killed him ...got kicked from the game .

    I never team kill , but I taught that little fook a lesson .

    Some fooker stabbed me last night cos he wanted to get on the UAV, when I died I came back as an assault class with a shotgun and C4. Waited for the UAV to be taken out and as he ran away I took him out with some carefully placed C4 stuck to him. As I was an assault class I refilled my C4 so there was lots and I mean lots stuck to him :D
