While I haven't seen many newbs, I've noticed my Sunbro gets summoned constantly now, as opposed to earlier.
Thinking I need to make a Gravelord and do a speedrun up to NG+.....
You sir get a 1+ for voicing my exact opinion.Any non-bribed review comes down to them being a bunch of nerd no life douchetools that only like CoD and MMOs.I know I sound really damn harsh but it is true.Slarg232 wrote:IGN is full of people who only rate games depending on how much bribe money they get.

I almost never see a movie or buy a game at release.
@Forum: your post didn't indicate anything of the sort, it just said "who cares?". Asking someone that put up a semi-lengthy post about a topic and asking them who cares... well obviously they do, even if you or I do not. But if someone's talking about a topic and you say "Who cares?" it's usually taken negatively. I'll uprate you.
Also... I don't know why there's so much CoD hate on here. I played that game quite a bit, and it's very good (hence the ridiculous sales). It is just as skillful as this game (I'd say reaction speed much more so) but you don't have to learn/memorize as much. Straight up skill, I would vote for CoD over dark souls. So not sure why the hate/looking down on it. It's like people that like indie music over mainstream just because it's indie (even if it sucks).
Something odd that I found is that, after playing Dark Souls for a significant time, I am better at Call of Duty and Halo.Forum Pirate wrote:I dissagree that cod is skill based, I'd go reflex based, with a side of forthought (though I do enjoy it)
As a comparison, I'd say halo (not sure about 4, haven't played it, but 1, 3 and reach for sure) is a skill based shooter, the primary differences being in the speed at which weapons kill and the skill required to use them properly.

Just saying.
Also, the same thing over and over is exactly why some people play it. They don't have to learn a new game, they can insert some new maps, new guns and play immediately. They know the rules. My friends that just play for about 1-2 hrs a week enjoy games like this just for this reason.
There are two main reasons as to why people hate Call of Duty:
What are you trying to say with "fake ping added"? A ping is x amount of data sent, and then they return that same x amount of data. I could 'ping' your computer for a gig of data and you'd ping me back that same amount. It's a specific network test... are you just saying extra latency gets added to you, so that your upstream is delayed?TheMeInTeamI think a lot of people, myself included, got tired of progressively worse netcode (IE better connection = fake ping added to you, sometimes 200ms+) to the point where the game was skill-equalized. wrote:
Lag is a serious issue in Dark Souls too, probably the single greatest issue in MP.
Fully agree to this and +1.Forum Pirate wrote:I dissagree that cod is skill based, I'd go reflex based, with a side of forthought (though I do enjoy it)

Simple battle field awareness (a skill all its own) is far more valuable in halo than reflexes, unless one is dealing with a rocket/grenade launcher.

MeInTeam, you keep using ping wrong. Ping's a tool, and you can set all kinds of parameters for it, such as size. Can you explain it without using ping? You're usually so succinct in your postings, I'm disappointed.
Moral of the story: Know how to make it so you can't hear other people, only the game. Especially in CoD.
