I finally made gen 2 yay!

 

Bring on the new maps!

 

Congrats, now onwards to Gen 10...it goes slightly faster thanks to the XP bonus with each regen. And yes, also waiting for the new maps. And i don't know why people keep calling this COD. It's clearly COD + Halo :rofl:

I'd say +Awesome but whatever works :D

 

Though I've never played a CoD multiplayer, so there's that.

 

I think I downloaded a patch just now but there's no info around about it.

Hopefully this patch addresses the frozen countdown glitch that happens once in a while, though it's been happening less this week. And...never played COD MP? :punch: WHY?

I don't play most things multi...had a bad connection for a long time, and the last two CoDs I bought were Black Ops 2 and Modern Warfare 1.

 

So far BF3, MOH:W, BF4, and Titanfall are all I've really gone in on outside of racing or MMOs.

 

(And yes, most of those racing games are Need for Speed.)

Certainly MP means it's not really your own schedule, and that you depend on more external factors than just with SP. Titanfall is an excellent game to get one hooked on MP, tempted to start another five hour session soon...but it does have its stability issues, and those have nothing to do with our connection quality. Surprised you liked Warfighter MP, it lasted all of two weeks :rolleyes:

It was pretty slick being able to call in artillery strikes and crap like that.

 

I doubt I bought it at launch, so I'd imagine it lasted longer...but there were never terribly many (more than two, heh) servers with people on em, and none of those had the map pack IIRC. :/

Ah, now I know why I like Titanfall so much better than I ever did MW. No ###### artillery, helicopters or bombers to help pad the kills of those who already have the most kills.

Well Experiment was talking about Medal of Honor actually :angry:

 

But yeah, same idea heh heh. Titanfall is much more straighforward than that. It's shoot or get shot, and movement is king. I also think the no kill streak thing is good - basically your titan and core are the only kill streak-affected things i can think of.

They released some patch notes today but I'm not really sure whether or not they're live before the DLC shows up.

 

5/15 is rumored.

 

Wow, thanks for posting these. Some of the best patch notes i've seen recently...too many to list, but faves include the gooser challenge (which was ridiculous), the disappearing guns in the escape dropship, and the overall reduced bandwidth consumption. On X1 i wish they'd take the time to implement vsync, i'm sure there's a way...shouldn't be too hard.

 

Otherwise very comprehensive notes

No, didn't watch it, but thanks for posting this video.

 

EDIT: they say the video is representative of X1. There's clearly no screen tearing, so i hope that means they're about to fix it. Or maybe they are rather loose with "representative".

I watched a few snippets of the stream last night and that was being played on the X1, but the stream wasn't the best so couldn't really tell :p

 

New maps look good, still annoyed that there's no concrete release date for the X1

 

Wallrunning between trees looks like fun.

Sure hope the vsync will be turned on hahaha, that is my only gripe with Titanfall, otherwise it's co-GOTY with Dark Souls 2 so far.

As of right now, Titanfall is my game of the year as well. You know, I keep reading on the forums that as of about a month ago, everyone is finding that the game textures, performance, tearing etc has all been dramatically improved, as well as framerate consistency. I wonder if they did some patch server side?

Just played it a few hours ago man, and did not find any technical improvement. Perhaps tearing was slightly better, will need to look again. Still an amazing experience, had to force myself to stop after five rounds. Gotta get that damn satchel requirement out of the way!

 

EDIT: also did not notice faster loading or shorter waits. When are all these patch notes coming into effect?

5/15 confirmed on FB.  Rock on.

 

Just in time for the weekend!

Not sure what platform you're playing on, but for X1, the patch goes live the same time as the DLC.

You're right, Xbox store also has nothing about the season pass...i think it will only pop up as purchase option tomorrow when the DLC goes live. Weird but honest in a way, guess they didn't want to sell anything until at least some DLC made it...

 

You can buy it from Gamestop though apparently, and Xbox store has it for 360:

That's what I'm hoping, I'm assuming that the Season Pass on Gamestop is just Xbox Live Credit to purchase the Pass when it goes live. I'll guess I'll check tomorrow morning and see what pops up.

Judging by the odd "$25" price tag on Gamestop instead of the more typical $24.99 i'd say that's correct, it's just a placeholder/credit until the real thing comes along. This is to Respawn's credit, they at least held back and made sure they had DLC to deliver before selling the season pass.

 

EDIT: just checked and Origin are selling the season pass already, not sure how long they've had it there. Clearly for PC only...

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels A few months ago, Neowin reported that the UK was trialing a social media ban with 300 teenagers for six weeks, that testing has come to an end, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced that the country will ban under-16s from social media. Starmer said that this technology is making children unhappy and making it easier for bullies to harass and abuse them. He continued to talk about the addictive nature of social media, saying that it uses an infinite scroll designed to lock users in for hours. He said this interferes with children doing their homework, reading, playing with friends outside, and going to bed on time. Tackling the idea that nothing can be done about social media, Starmer said: The government’s action won’t stop at social media either, the PM said. It plans to take action on gaming services and livestreaming platforms. Right now, he said, strangers can contact any child unchecked. He said this wouldn’t happen in real life, and the government is going to stop it from happening online, too. The Labour government has overseen the introduction of the Online Safety Act, a big change to the internet which includes age verification on adult websites. This has led to a fair bit of backlash, but overall, the government is pushing ahead with these changes.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.
