Sent you one there Blazer (Davrondomar).

Good fun this evening with Noel and kdjac (and friend). One or two questionable helicopter decisions made I will admit! Still, it was a good laugh, lots of stuff picked up and skill points acquired, GG all!

So much to do and its not boring doing it simply because you can **** it up in spectacular ways.

Example: Steal a chopper located on the edge of a base.

Option A Drone and spot everything, silently work throught it like Sam Fishers favourite love child.
Option B Quickly move in and silently engage only those near the chopper, take it and fly off.
Option C Steam in a humvee with a mini gun blasting everything, everything blasts back and everyone dies and the chopper explodes.


Guess what Shim and Degrassi picked.

No. PvE but they will be adding a 4v4 PVP mode later however this will be a really small part of the game.

When your co-op buddy asks where you are....

Getting a freezing/stuttering issue when i come up to a new area or a mission,the screen totally freezes for about 2 seconds then the game resumes. No big deal but hopefully gets sorted.

Having a blast just running around just doing random stuff,the story is bloody awful when it does chime in but ive found it can be safely ignored. Just trying to expand my arsenal a bit. Find myself turtling along and taking out random groups of enemies for fun and checking for loot/intel in the little towns. Playing on advanced solo,extreme when playing in a group.

I am actual finding the story interesting but the way it is presented is horrible. Important story videos are just little video prompts off to one corner of the screen instead of being automatically rolled as you complete certain objectives. When you watch them in the menu they are amazing. Really well made with good story info in them.

Some of the lads missed the videos so lost out on the story line until I reminded them that they can access the videos in the menu screen.

To be fair.... Noel was driving and aimed right at the chopper :P

Are you on a mechanical hard drive? I get the same and it's happening in a few games, but only on the ones I have installed on a mechanical drive (which I think is starting to fade out and I need to get a second SSD).

I dont know it just feels a bit OTT and silly to me,but its not a problem,i dont need much context to murder whole villages of people on a whim:p

Its actually great fun:D

Yup,literally have a tab open looking at the 500gb MX300 on amazon right now. Im sure its something they can work on though. Its seems its a widely enough reported issue,id expect they will improve it.

One of the last videos we made from the open beta. Major faceplant :pac:

*opps, already posted it pre-launch.

dreamers75

I have it on an SSD with no issues but when one of the others gets the load issue I get it too, this has happened a few times with the same person.

No time to add another Ubisoft grind-fest onto an already mental backlog of games.
The game-play looks uninspired. Good fun in coop I'd suspect in short bursts.

Fairly accurate!

Yes, that's spot on. The difference between solo play and co-op is huge. Fantastic craic in co-op.

Is it easy to join a coop game with randomers?

Left in the convoy before that to show that we actually can do things correctly.

Very easy although I highly recommend playing with people on your friends list. After a couple of games with randomers you might find a decent group.... maybe

streaming a bit more solo here, not quite as mental as last night

It is but play on extreme with no hud solo for a really tactical experience and a great challenge, at times its more fun that co-op.

The "ninjas" shenanigans tonight.

I love how I called Nitro dropping in on me. Dav and Eriks attempt at a stealth entrance also worked.

Blazer

really must stop being so trigger happy..so far multiple civilian and rebel kills

This game is way better than I expected. Any PC players wanna co-op?
