Past careing the games a chore to play and when released others will see this, spawn problem has been getting fixed since day one but still remains the same.
A major issue thats still not sorted, yes use uplinks and get camped, better off going for random spawn at least thers a 20% chance you may actually spawn safe before turning around and getting killed by the blob of red |

I realize the emote indicates both the first and second sentence are rhetorical in nature, but I'll chime in just 'cause. Monkey is not an inherently racist slur. With certain prefixes attached it can be, but to infer that it's racist in the context used says more about the offended than the supposed "offender." |

No, sorry I couldn't see it. 'Twas so blatant I was blinded by its brilliance. I need my shades. |

It's 2013 calling somebody a monkey can be implied racism. Not only is it racist to call somebody a monkey it's also in poor taste to call somebody a monkey. I joke about my ban from time to time, but in this instance i'm using it as a teachable to help a wayward member of our community that seems to pop in in ex-MAG players threads.
I was banned for posting something tasteless, and the community reacted and read way too far into the situation. I'm simply using my experience to help somebody else from getting banned off of the game.
Now rather than following me into my threads you should focus on getting better at the game, because running around as a heavy with an AR and still going negative is just hilarious. |

And FYI - I know reading comprehension is starting to become a social skill - but try to understand my post had more to do in your defense then me saying anything against you.
But - eh - to each there own :)
Lost a lot of respect from me just there protofag. I know you don't care - but really. Try to understand your own words. "

Say you just want to help then IMMEDIATELY contradict yourself - these are the reason I want to throw my cash at you. Jersey Shores cast would love you. |

His response confused me as well as you were clearly trying to defend the notion that "monkey" is racially charged. Your illustration, however, was addressed by my mentioning prefixes having the potential to making it racist. I take it that's why you emoted, as it wasn't meant as an entirely serious defense? |

Pretty much - just like to throw in comments to lighten the mood. Protos convos can be real... let's say tight assed?
I really expect people with such amazing skill in game to able to have at least SOME form of reading comprehension. And I may go negative every so often in a damn game but at least I'm not getting banned for being a pessimistic egotistical ass. |

If your squad's uplink isn't clear, your squad should be telling you it isn't clear and replacing it for you so you can spawn safely. If your squad isn't covering the uplink properly and communicating, then you are by definition, playing poorly. Getting spawn killed after the initial spawn is just poor play on your squad's part.
As I said, the only problem with spawning is the initial spawn. |

I never posted a thread explaning the reason of this becuse I thought more of the forumers were smarter then that.... *sigh* I guess I will have to make 2 blogs before going to Civ 5 >.>
the maps in the full game will be much larger and the bases separated, smaller maps EVEN on ambush will be less frequesnt and able to be avoided easily in non corp/merc battles. there will be more stratigy use in CRUs, both from uplinks, CRU instalations (you build thoose for thoose who didn`t know), from built in CRUs on LAVs and most likly the octopuses (MAV) and especily on the dropships. your team is soppused to be cordinated by placing some sort of CRU and defending it, fight for the stratigic locations and build up your defences like a Star Hawk camper, CCP hasn`t tooken the time to change the spawn in since they find it un necisary to do so just for the beta, but I must agree in some terms, simply adding a hostile player sensor to the charictors for spawn in will make sure you don`t spawn in by hostile mercs, c`mon I do this as a non experienced Little Big Planet 2 world builder, not hard. secoundly giving us smaller maps that arnm`t close quarters when in the full game won`t happen oftenly is a bad decision, SGs will be wanted to be nerfed by fools, and in the full game SGs use will become near useless. |

At least Black Ops is good at being a generic arcade shooter. Dust can't even pull that off right.
Black Ops was so bad I could not finish the first mission, never liked the multiplayer in it felt awfully wrong. The only redeeming factor was zombies which out of the entire game GOT MORE ATTENTION. They should just make Call of Zombies or something because it was a far superior part in game play motion and feeling than the rest of the game.
Infinity Ward CoDs however... |
