So, is everyone playing Red Dead tonight or will we have enough for a pistols and knife fight???

So we did this last night good laugh first there was me,Garv,Moose and Dunworth against Cyco,Brk3,Screw2loose and Royal irish. Then there were connection issues and when i next rejoined it was me and Kev against Moose,dunworth and Royal. I will admit I used C4 at the last match but Royal had already used it in the previous match and was using it in the previous stage as well. Some fluky good kills all round.

Yeah the match last night was great fun, wasnt doing to badly with my pistol. was really frustrating Moose as he seemed to always be following me, when i would whip around and take him out in two shots. Think i went 62 - 30 in the one game that i played, unfortunatly i handed my tags out willingly to anyone and everyone! looking into getting a gaming headset so i can hear you feckers coming up behind me!

Yeah, those x41's certainly saved my ass loads of times!

That was brilliant fun last night. Never realised the M9 was so good until now.

Screw, that hand cannon you were using dropped me with two shots even with armour on!!! The reason I was always running up behind you was cause I was using the lightweight perk... certainly gives the edge on knife fights, thanks for the tip Raze!

Well i ordered a set of X11's off amazon so it wont be long until you will have to find a new way to sneek up on me moose

x11's are stereo sound... it's the x41's that have surround sound that let me know exactly which direction you're coming from

Ordered a set of FPS Freaks on Sunday, in a moment of madness... read that they were recommended and used by HUTCH (of YouTube fame)... supposed at be able to turn your sensitivity up to maximum with them and still be able to keep control... good enough for HUTCH, good enough for me

Most reports (including youtube commentators in the same business as hutch) say there's little to no discernable difference in stereo and surround sound headsets, other than the price.

I have a pair of X1's (just noticed they've been discontinued for the X11's, damn!) and they work great for telling directions of sound.

Bit skeptical of the Freaks, be sure to post how they work out

I'll definitely let you know what I think of the the FPS Freaks. Been using those thumb stick grips for the last few years and find it near impossible to play without them now.

As for the difference between stereo and surround sound headsets. I can confirm that the x41's are simulated surround sound which projects the directional sound into your skull. It does work. I've tested it with my eyes shut and listening to a surround sound setup CD.

However, the Tritton AX360's that I sold to Raze were much more precise in determining sound direction due to having four individual speakers positioned within each ear cup.

The x4/x41's can't achieve the same level directional awareness as the Tritton's, due to being a wireless headset. So, in my humble opinion, if you wish to experience perfect surround sound from a headset make sure to purchase something similar to the wired Tritton's. However, if like me, you couldn't handle having more wires in an already over-wired games room; then the x4/x41's are a great compromise (just make sure to have a constant supply of batteries!).

Need to get to get some phones myself. The standard "Britney Spears" headset with TV sound is pretty useless. Especially at 2 A.M. when everyone else in the house is complaining about needing to be up early the next day.:rolleyes:Thats why I keep getting stabbed! Had some XLCs and they were pretty good so I can imagine the benefits of true surround sound would be huge. Raze might only get my tags once or twice per game then.:D
BTW knives and pistols are great craic.

Raze_them_all

will be back playin tomorrow, havin a few beers tonight

These are available on e-bay. Look handy and they can be removed so normal television viewing is not affected.

Ok having problems with the Thompson gun. According to the game i have no kills with this what so ever. For example i started with the 870 combat last night got one kill with it got my medal and then switched to the thomspon Spent the rest of the game using this and killed loads with this so when the stats screen came up it said the most weapon kill was with the 870 combat with one kill. Any idea anybody

i have noticed this to be flawed on many occasions, sometimes it will display the weapon i killed the most with but show some random number of kills, or it will display the incorrect weapon. Didnt really think much of it because its fairly insignificant, as the kills were still counted in my actual stats page.

It's a known flaw, it always resets to0, was told this by moose when we were both going for bronze stars

No offence but we've had loads of people say that to us and we've added them but they never show up. A few pages back you'll see a list of the regular players. Add them and come join us when you see any of us on.

Oh, mind your dogtags... new members tend to get raped
