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.

  • 3 weeks later...

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...

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
