    I'd no more buy a second hand controller than I would a second hand pair of jocks. :D

    Soft chap :P you probably have a panic attack when you get your hands dirty :D

    Hygiene concerns aside, there the fact that controllers wear out. I reckon 99% of the time you'd be better off buying a brand new standard controller than a second hand modified effort.

    multiplayer isnt doing it for me. 5 assault rifles 2 being fully automatic? seriously??????? few variations with a increase in accuracy or whatever but **** that.

    Lag in this game is unacceptable, it's beyond worse than any other COD and no, it's not because the game is new, stop saying that. It's also not my connection, the better your connection is the worse you lag, and vice-versa. It's counter intuitive to use P2P. This game needs dedicated servers, they have to deliver. The community is going crazy over this at SHG right now, they've done a great job at making a great COD and need to act fast and implement dedicated servers ASAP. The game is borderline unplayable online, unless you like a lag compensation fest. Seriously hope they make the right move here

    I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who was issues with the lag. I basically lose 90% of all my one on ones, dying as soon as someone pokes their gun around the corner but on kill-cam it would seem that I had had all the time in the world to shoot at them.

    Completed the story earlier today. While it plays out like a movie and is pretty enjoyable, it is ruined by such an anti-climatic ending and short experience (even on veteran).

    Have been playing multiplayer all day today and I don't know what to make of it so far in terms of gameplay. It's still got that generic twitch shooter COD style except now you need to be able to throw your back to the ground to aim up at skyward targets which can be very annoying, being dealt death from above a lot of the time. The gun choice is very limited in terms of ARs. Spawning is an absolute mess. There is nothing refreshing in terms of any game mode, even the exo survival mode is the same damn boring crap as before.

    Generally a COD fan but this has been a bit of a let down, 6/10 from me!

    So popped into a bigger Supervalu and they actually had it in stock, But they wanted €70 for it!

    I asked why it was €70 when the price says €49? She said its €70 today but will be back to €49 tomorrow.

    ..Left and picked it up in Argos for €58.

    Anyone else finding that more than 3 players in your party goes to hell in multiplayer.

    We have noticed that playing as a team of 3 or less we are cleaning up and the connections are solid.

    More than 3 and its lag town.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,795 ✭✭✭CptMackey


    Found it impossible tonight. Lose nearly every one on one. Feels like lag. Get killed with hardly no bullets even tho I have unloaded a mag into them.

    Hopefully it will improve :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    why in the name of sweet baby jesus are we not playing on the same dedicated servers that titanfall uses? tonight was ridiculous. fellas teleporting around like something out of star trek.

    To be fair, I played cod on a .7mb connection for a year.

    The trick is to become the lag, embrace it, be one with the lag. Thats what ye fancy people on good connections dont have, a relationship with lag, this is why it frowns on you.
    Just cradle the balls, at least once.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    I'm currently playing on a 1mb connection and haven't noticed any lag. maybe my **** connection is pulling everyone elses down :D

    Quick question.........
    If you buy the COD advanced warfare season pass ,do you still have to to pay the yearly PSN+ annual subscription? ,to play multiplayer.

    Yes. Two separate companies and two seperate products your paying for.

    not sure, but I think you're mad to consider buying the season pass a while. wait and see if they get the game fixed first before handing them another 45 notes. the first DLC wont be out for a month or 2.

    Yeah, no PSN+ means no online play.

    Some clips from the last few nights although last night was crazy bad for lag. It seemed to calm down when there was 3 or less in a party and when we played team deathmatch!

    Yeah I noticed there was a pretty huge disparity in how some people moved when playing this last night. Was a clan on the other team, watching the killcams you could tell some of them were using scuf controllers, being able to aim and use the boosters etc at the same time is a huge advantage. If their aim wasn't terrible i'd have thought they were playing with a keyboard and mouse.

    Other than that I enjoyed the couple of hours I got to play it a lot more than I have ghosts, BO2 + MW3 (All 3 were garbage imo).

    Yeah, if ya don't play claw, or at the very least, know how to halo/scuf jump around corners, you're gonna get out gunned....the single shot pistol and MORS sniper rifle need to gimped

    Right...supply drops.

    Is there any way of knowing how to get these? As crazy as it sounds, I seem to get these every three matches the moment I die for the first time!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Nodferatu


    Just picked up a copy. Why does gear you unlock expire? I dont get it? Customization stuff like clothing and helmet and stuff.

    I haven't a clue. We were trying to figure this out too. Why does it expire? It's not like it gives you any bonus abilities or anything as far as I can see :confused:

    As far as I know it is only special gear that you get through care packages that expire like the bloodshot helmet

    I think you definitely get a supply drop for first blood in a game.

    Defiantly a game issue. In fairness I'm not too fair off you (2mb).

    But regardless guys I know with 100mb fibre lines are having the same lag.

    BTW I'm on X1 so not sure about the PS4

    :pac: Think that was early on when a lot of people hadn't a clue what they were doing and it made for easy pickings :D
