    Anybody played the new dlc? Downloading it now.

    Initial Impressions

    Rush - the paintball arena - good map, surprisingly big, might be best for ground war, lots of tight sightlines so Shotguns and SMG's rule here

    Cove - very bright and pretty map, you can circle the entire island by staying on the beach, seems to be one spot in the crashed plane that draws most of the action, played dom and the flags are very far apart which made it hard to determine where the spawn flips.

    Detour - horrible looking map, mess everywhere. seemed to be wandering around for ages trying to find enemies. huge amounts of unusual flanking rountes on top of pipes etc. might get better with more playtime as I only got 1 go on it.

    Summit - hadn't played this previously. everyone seems to rate it but i reckon map knowledge would play a big part in it. I managed to join 2 games of dom that were in progress and our team were getting hammered so it wasn't overly enjoyable. Again, may get better with age.

    Rush - very good but the centre area is a camper's paradise.
    Cove - looks like the beach map from blops 1, again camper's paradise.
    Detour - Don't even go there, like aftermath but with all the buildings flattened
    Summit - always will be class.

    I had one game on Detour and it was nothing but snipers tac inserting above the ramps. All 11 other players were sniping. S**t map and it's hard to tell which end of the map you're on because it all looks identical.

    Rush is decent, have to get used to it though because the spawns seemed to be all over the place.

    Didn't get to play the other two.

    Uplink (Summit) is still class! Love the new look - It's really pretty, albeit a bit dark

    My only grip is they removed the B-DOM cap spot from behind the desk on the C side. That used to be really handy :(

    Thinking on getting one of the map packs. Any preferences. Peacekeeper one or the recent one.

    The peacekeeper is a pretty good gun. I'd go for that

    Except we need to learn the spawns.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,407 ✭✭✭lkionm


    I dont think the spawns flip in demo so its easy to spawn trap or be spawn trapped.

    They released a "patch" that flips the spawns if you die within 3 seconds(?), in the available spawns for an area

    Seriously? That's fckin brilliant!

    You have to die alot for it to flip..

    If it was C flag on nuketown you have (I think) 5 spawns in the area, you have to rapidly die in all five for it to flip(don't quote me on this) :rolleyes:

    Demo tonight again then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,909 ✭✭✭greenman09


    That's the longest I ever played SnD. Quite fun


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...


    Spawns are fairly easy in any game mode to figure out if you just pay attention to the vsat/put a guardian down on one of the spawns
