Cool, ima go ahead and pick it up hopefully I won't regret it :D. Thankyou.

[magik]

Yes, i am :) But I'll pass some time with Singleplayer then, give me a shout when your ready!

Hey man, that was a fun series of Co-op games we played! Sorry I sucked so much, that was pretty much the first time I actually played the game. Before that I was only playing around with the camera, haha. :D

I started on realistic - dunno if it has changed, where do you see that?

Yeah I know that! :p

I was talking to soloredd - he says he switches semi-automatic for improved accuracy.

But I cant shoot fast enough with the trigger buttons on semi-automatic setting so I was wondering if he used 'smaller' buttons to shoot making it easiyer and faster.

Look down and see :p

Ohh, I see what you mean now. No, it's not a different button to shoot with a different Rate of Fire (ROF). To change your ROF you just hold down X and then press UP on the D-Pad. You can alternate between 1-bullet, 3-bullets, and Multi-bullets. Of course, the lower the ROF the higher the accuracy.

[Huleboeren]

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I know how to change rate of fire.

I was wondering what button he used to fire his weapon with..

Because I cant fire very fast in semi-automatic mode IF I use the trigger buttons

But if I use the 'normal' buttons - I can shoot very fast :shiftyninja:

[magik]

Interesting...

Hey,

Yeah it was great fun, great pratice too! We were just rushing too much i think :laugh: But i played

some of the maps we played in Singleplayer, I'm really disappointed in the Co-op Story mode.

It's basicly Terrorist Hunt in Single-Player maps, there's no "Story" over it. But we gotta do it again

sometime with more people from Neowin, then it's gonna be great! Maybe even some Team Deathmatch.

I can also safely say Yo' Mamas HOT :D ;)

Sorry about my English though ...

Just played this game with a few friends on co-op for a couple of hours. It has some serious issues, sometimes it dosent detect the microphone on that player (60% of time) causing you to keep restarting until all of you have it.

There is also sound clipping where a gun sounds gets stuck and continues to sound throughout the map until you die.

The AI is great in some places, rubbish in others.

Other than that it is a good game. Just needs a patch quickly to fix a few issues, especilly the Voice issue.

[Sethos]

Sorry about the bump, but i just got hate to this game for two seconds.

I'm so sick of the Single-Player in this game, the AI can hit you through everything and have super-human vision.

I hate the Save-points in this game, so freaking far apart specialy in some areas. Like when you rescue the first Team-member "Gabe" I believe,

first you need to deal with that assault then you need to fight your way through 2-3 mounted machine guns and storming Super humans ...

Your teammates are a bunch of retards too, they cant do **** by themselves, they die every fifth second ... It's so god damn frustrating :angry:

And I'm only playing on Normal!

Wow, you must really suck :laugh:

But yeah, they do cheat :p

Try it on realistic - maybe they behave different

[Huleboeren]

I got this off the neofag forums "Some kotaku kid posted a vegas mii something" something..

:D

If i ever decide to buy a vision camera - ill paint some paper all black and then im invisible to enemies :shiftyninja:

[dnast]

Neofag?? :laugh:

That's pretty sweet, though.

[Matrix XII]

One criticism of the game I have is that the sub machine guns are much too powerful, and much too accurate.

Exactly, that's my main gripe too! I've been shot with the MP7 countless of times on huge "Sniping" Distances, not lucky shots but a well aimed one-hitter ... MP7 for crying out loud! :angry:

[Digitalx]

is this going to be on pc eventually if so will it be directx 10 or 9 ??

[Sethos]

I'm sorry if this has been posted, then it must have gone by me;

Don't worry mate, i think they are well aware of the many issues and are trying to fix them :)

[Sheppard]

Im incredibly ****ed off at the end of the game.

What a copout, i fight my way all the way through the game, beat the baddy and save the day and all i get for it is a "to be continued" screen. I did like the story though
