Old Gold Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Had a crack at Halo 4 multiplayer last night. Really robust, and even a rusty bastard like myself can peel off a few head shots from time to time. Satisfying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 New cod multiplayer is so broken.In what way? I found it a million times better than MW3 and even better than BLOPS.Really like the new class thing as well where you can make a class out of 10 things rather than limiting what you can have of each type of thing so much.

Scootray Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Been playing Half-Life 2 recently, according to Steam, I hadn't played it since 2007. Bought the Half-Life 2:Episode 1 follow up the other night too.The annoying is, is that as awesome as my PC is for being 5 years old, it crashes frequently when I'm playing games, so I'm constantly having to save them. Not entirely sure what's wrong with it, as it brings up a number of different errors in the report screen. My graphics card driver is up to date, but it's sometimes a nvdmm.dll (something along those lines) error that pops up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 HL2:E1 is good and everything, surprised you ain't played it, but once you're done be sure and get HL2:E2. It will blow your fucking tits off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could well be that your graphics card is fucked, not the driver necessarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootray Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 No, just hangs. With Half-Life 2 I'm having to Ctrl-Alt-Delete just to get back onto the desktop. Graphics card is probably the issue as it never crashes with something like FM2012. It has, but very rarely crashed with Civ 5, whereas COD, etc do it frequently.

Teabags Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Might want to do a memory test first. Could be a cheaper fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootray Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 With the Windows tool? Tried that the other day and it found nothing unfortunately as that would be cheaper to fix! What about a BIOS update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfer_Rosa Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Just finished playing through Half Life 2 through to episode 2 again this week. Still awesome.Working my way through some of the Humble Indie Bundle games I hadn't tried yet, though my computer's too old and shit for Amnesia to work.

The SMGs are pretty overpowered. It's fallen into the same trap that mw3 fell into, the more complex you make a map, the more likely it is that everyone will just end up shooting each other in the back. Also the new lag compensation system is absolute garbage.It is a good game though, it's a lot harder than previous games and they've taken some good ideas from MW3 even though that game was shite.

Call of Duty is a game that falls apart in a team deathmatch setting because there is no sense of tactics involved it's just hare about and hope to not get shot in the back.I find SMGs more balanced in this one than in previous ones and the choices like Sniper and shotgun are actually fairly viable for their purpose now as well. I.E proper shooting over long distance instead of 1 shotting in close range and the shotgun is better than SMG in a close setting like in a small room/corridor.

FOX Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Was the first one good? I didn't get my Xbox till about 2010, so missed out on some release games.I wasn't a fan.

Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Rugby League Live 2 comes out November 30th, if you're a Rugby League fan. The first one was absolutely awful, but the gameplay videos on Youtube look pretty decent this time. Then again, there's never been a good Rugby League game on any platform, so I'm still sceptical.Oh, except for Super League Pro Rugby on the PC from 1996, where every player was intentionally made to look like Sky Sports' Mike "Stevo" Stephenson.

Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Sod playing online. I don't bother with that anymore, with any game. Everyone just quits.I know you're only poking fun at League, but I'm going to suck all the fun out of your jokes, as there isn't really much difference between domestic Union and League average attendances:Saracens 36,877Leicester Tigers 20,724London Wasps 19,978Harlequins 13,420Gloucester 13,347Northampton Saints 12,694Bath 11,043Worcester Warriors 8,413London Irish 7,998Sale Sharks 7,216Exeter Chiefs 6,869London Welsh 5,131Wigan 18,398Leeds 14,948Saints 14,088Hull 11,885Bulls 11,761Warringtons 11,430Catalans Dragons 9,383Wakefield 8,172Hull KR 7,786Huddersfield 7,709Castleford 6,633Widnes 5,942Salford 5,492Harlequins3,809Loads of people like proper, non-poshboy rugby.
