I wont ever get one, not while they still charge you a small fee for playing online.
Same here, as good as fifa looks and sounds 🙁
That was intense last night even with Teslas, and it took a really good team to get all the way through. I imagine there will be an eventual nerf of the Tesla ammo clip though. I carried ammo through the entire campaign last night and it was only really needed during the early rounds while you and me were still leveling up. They might even go so far as to make it a class specific weapon because it’s incredibly powerful with 4 using it.
Lets not take anything anyway from the teamwork throughout that campaign, which was incredible given it was just you and me on voice comms. It was very rare for the swarm to overrun us, because all the angles were being covered instinctively, and when you had to reload, someone was always quick to plug the gap in the defence for those few seconds. I think the only level we didn’t complete with a full team was the last one, and that was only because you’d got slightly separated by losing the route on the way back to the platform, and one of the other guys got flicked off the platform by one of those big shield bastards. That’s an incredible result when you think of some of those shit storms we had to come through 🙂
Oh btw, the electric charge armour has a use versus the infection which I noticed last night. It apparently stops the infection dead in it’s tracks when used, as well as the stun effect it has if you get surrounded. You only have 3 charges, but once lost you can always pick up a personal med kit from the map.
Oh and I agree on the unlocks which should be available sooner, but having said that, you level up much faster on the harder levels. I went two or three ahead of Bob last night, with only a couple of extra games completed.
I think the normal mode is perfect for starting off, then at the harder levels you need to really start considering your teamwork. On the harder levels you really need to manage health and ammo, so a bit more caution and making sure we don’t all fire at the same targets is the way forward. Three of us playing the second level on hard last night was tricky, but we still got quite far despite losing someone to an early death. Some of our tradtional kit choices on the normal levels, like the one medic approach, just won’t work though, or at least it won’t if we’re as gung ho as we were on the normal levels 🙂
Fun games again last night, and we finally got the campaign completed, albeit on normal mode, and only 2 of us actually made it. We really should replay that last level for the 2 who didn’t make it though. Some of the unlocks make a lot of difference, especially when dealing with the infection stuff we were struggling with the night before, and I think our teamwork was much better (especially when it came to drawing on the mini map 😆 ).
We also had 8 people playing over the course of the night, and a few others I spoke to on steam are also downloading it. Milo and Doc popped on late, and the 3 of us attempted the first and second level of the campaign on Hard, but it was quite a step up from the normal mode and we struggled with just the 3 of us, plus the hoard seemed to like Milo :). Amongst other things, it’s harder to manage Ammo and Health with 3 people, and I think it was a bit harsh not turning the difficulty down for those last couple of games.
Looking forward to a few more games tonight 🙂
Downloading it as we speak 🙂
Judge actually beat you to it slightly, in a thread down a couple of forums:
Another match tonight between me and streff, and I’m glad we played it when we did because Streff’s round as the US was the hardest I’ve had against him so far. It was a much tougher fight than the score suggests, with him narrowly missing out on taking the VP advantage on two seperate occasions, because of some last ditch defending on my part.
First game Alzir (Wehrmacht) win with 500 tickets left to nil.
Second game Alzir (US) HQ win with 500 tickets left to Streff’s 60.Doc’s posted it in the wrong thread, but there was also one round of a match between him and Anobiz, with Ano bravely playing his first ever 1v1 as a match 🙂
ffs where did my post go 🙁
Anyway, gist of what I was saying… We have a forum in the private area to post about kicks and bans, so it’s easier for people to respond when someone feels aggrieved enough to signup for the forums and start gurning.
Also to echo Doc, we’ve always had a good reputation for our servers because we’ve not let admin powers go to our head. Be very careful with the cheating allegation, especially on PB secured servers, as that’s an extremely slippy slope.
That’s what it looks like intially, with the hero thing being the main addition to actual gameplay. I can see them expanding it though, possibly with an online campaign, similar to a COH mod that does the same, the name of which escapes me.
What do you mean by dilute Andy?
From the video I was wondering about the specialisation paths you can take, thinking that it takes an element of strategy out of your game where you choose a doctrine, but maybe that only applies to out of game upgrades etc and the game plays as it always has?
My main char is AnobizII
😆 Probably the only person to start with a nickname and work backwards through the numbers likes.. lol
