Guys,

Those that have met me on GTA Online will already know, but for those that dont I have a neuro related voice issue so may not always be clear/occasionally go silent in team matches

Just so you know I'm not being ignorant!

Anyone downloaded it? If so how long did it take (cod ghosts took pretty much all day). Won't get a chance to even start installing until this evening.
Have you it on 'always on' (or whatever its called) mode?

If so, you could kick it off from the web

Also, your Gamer score is shown as 0 via my smartglass, tad odd?

I'll give it a go. As for gamertag, a few of us yokels play in the man-cave (converted barn), there's a shared gamertag we sometimes use, but mine (I used to be precious about stats - but now am hopeless) I've never played anything other than online multiplayer.
Fair comment


Love your 'about me' by the way Nick

hehe

Yep,

absolutely loving it

Now I've opened up most of the add ons (Level 37, quite a lot of challenges passed)it's just so much fun.

Favouring hardpoint at the moment, not too keen on last titan standing.

Hardpoint would be fun with an all PH crew, if we could get that organised I reckon we could nail it with 2 at each HP as at the mo it's so free for all (though the heavy cannons that you can knife across to your control add a fun element to keep things going).

Really suprised that several times I've managed to come 1st or 2nd and more often than not in the top 1/3

Hmm

not much experience in MP (and one on the XBone!) but on this you can just find friend in your list, select (A) and then select (join game), cant you?

Yes you can - just not sure if it's considered rude to appear in someone's party - or just friendly/normal (given they have put their GT online in a dedicated thread)
Well,

Right,

well as expected I have a contract drought after today

So in all likelihood will be about during the day next week (at the very least!) if anyone is likely to be around?

I hate online FPS games. They're irritating because I'm so bloody awful and everyone else is so good, and I never feel like I'm getting anywhere. Horrible, repugnant games open to the elitist few who are a) under 14 and b) can spend all night, every night playing them.

So why on earth am I enjoying Titanfall so much?!


It's utterly, utterly superb. Fast but not manic, I'm still crap but at least I don't feel like I'm crap, and there's a ton of variety in it too. I don't care a jot that it's not 1080p, not when it's this much FUN. I don't think I've played a game that was this much fun for years. Atlas with a chaingun and the nuke ability is my Titan of choice, and pilot with the SMG and show enemies through walls for running like a madman. And dying a lot paperbag


I can only imagine how awesome the sequel will be.
Yep,

that pretty much sums up how I feel, right down to the Pilot + Titan loadouts being the same!

cool

Found a sneaky way to complete the regen to level 4 challenge re Satchel Charge kills (probably obvious to everyone but me):

Hardpoint matches, get camped in by a hardpoint and place satchel charges near you where the enemy are likely to shoot from whilst using 'Dead mans switch' option on pilot loadout

Enemy comes in, shoots you - kaboom!

You could just use the trigger to blow them before the enemy shoots you!? :-)

Your way seems particularly masochistic :-)
I agree, but my way is the lazy approach - also often get multiple pilot kills from this

Well, thought the new update might make this worth digging up

Bringing in new maps DLC, plus 'black market' for burn cards so you can sell your burn cards to gain new ones and even use Post (Gen **) Level 50 XP to convert to burns cards

Added the black market for burn cards

Slightly off balance economy IMHO

Each standard card you sell gets you 100 credits, yet to buy a decent pack of 6 costs 10000-20000!
