CYTK Clan: BlOps II (PS3)

[usc_yogi]

I was hoping to use the 2XP to prestiege this weekend, but I didn't even play last night so that was a wasted opportunity. I didn't get on until 10:30 Saturday night and no one was on.

I partied up with a guy on my friends list who wanted to play HC KC to work on his challenges for the Swat. I finally ended up getting all the longshots I needed for my Type 25 in only about 2 HC KC games.

I was using the target finder and playing on Aftermath. One guy on the other team had a tac insert inside the bus and I just kept getting longshot after longshot on him.

I don't know why the allow target finders in HC. It seems kind of easy mode. Even if people are running cold blooded your target still lights up red when it is on them, it just doesnt have the big red aimbot box around them. My next match was on Turbine and I used the same setup. There was no way I could have spotted all the snipers that were camping without using it.

I got us 250 more xp yesterday during the TDM challenge. Played yesterday evening and the connections were so bad I quit playing (even during double xp) and checked the trade in values.

I played a little yesterday and had good connections for a while then all of a sudden it went in the toilet. Watching the kill cam was a joke. I saw the bad guy and dumped a clip in him only to have him kill me. From my perspective, he was seeing a whole other situation. I had to just stop playing.

I think I'm about to pick up the new Hitman and start playing it as my shooter game. COD has gotten so big that the noobs ruin it. If none of the clan is on. It's a waste of time trying to play online, because all you do is get thrown on teams that have 4-29 against guys that are 30-2.

Ran into that yesterday too. The connection is too up and down on this game to ever have a great run.

Nah don't do that. You just have to walk away when it gets bad and then come back another time. I love Treyarch COD games, but they really need to get their lag issues in hand. I don't see why there is such a big difference in lag issues between the Modern Warfare series and Treyarchs games.

I had my share of WTF moments in kill cams here lately. The one that is pretty constant is where it shows me not even shooting or looking in the guys direction and him side stepping me and killing me when I know I was dead on him.

I keep reminding myself that it all balances out. Everytime I get pooped on in the killcam I know I have probably caused some other guy in another game to say WTF when I killed them.

[LegalCock]

Yeah I am currently not planning to buy the DLC. They gotta' do better than this and they apparently don't think it is a problem as they're more worried about gun balance. Maybe its just a ps3 thing. I even experienced the "awaiting textures" freezing problem at least three times this weekend, which they were supposed to have previously patched. When the heck is the respawn entertainment game coming out?

[usc_yogi]

That is strange about the awaiting textures thing. I haven't seen that since the game originally came out. It is not just a PS3 thing. A lot of the Youtube commentators were complaing all weekend on twitter.

With the new XBOX and PS4 coming out next year, I bet Respawn is waiting to launch its game on the new consoles.

Berry, what's your favorite GTA game (other than III). I'm thinking about DLing one of the classics. Vice city is coming out this week.

I never played III. I love GTA SA. Vice City was ok, but SA is just a huge map. Whole bunch of stuff to do. When I jumped off the other night when I was playing with you guys, that's what I went and played.

[usc_yogi]

Vice City was fun, but San Andreas was way better. Isn't it on the PS store? I still have my PS2 copy. It was by far my most played game last generation besides NCAA 2003.

My CJ character was always ripped with a fro. The music was great as well. I loved playing with the jet pack once you had access to it. I hope GTA V is more Vice City/San Andreas-like than GTA IV. They tried to make that one too realistic and took the fun out of it. I didn't even get pat the first island before I stopped playing it.

[Berry]

Yeah SA is on the store. Like I posted earlier, there is so much stuff to do. Drive bys, picking up hookers, stabbing people in the neck, running from the police. Racing cars and bikes. I wonder what the average time is to beat the game? Probably a month or two if you play a couple hours a night.

[usc_yogi]

Is the SA on the store look exactly the same as the PS2 version or is it an HD upgrade? I don't have any controllers for my PS2 anymore. I don't know if it would be cheaper to buy a controller or SA again from the store.

I am sure it is like Red Dead Redemption in that you could do a quick playthrough if you didn't do all the side quests, but that takes all the fun out of it.

I still need to finish the BO2 single player mode. I might focus on that since the MP was irritating me last night.

[Berry]

GTA SA is the exact same game as it was on the ps2. You use your ps3 controller to play. Graphics look about the same. Maybe these new fangled tv's make the picture better.

[Berry]

I only played a couple games in BO2 last night. My 1st game I went 56-17 on slums. The whole Pittsburgh clan that was on the other team backed out after I called in score streak after score streak. Not my fault they wouldn't shoot anything down.

Been using the MP7 on hardcore and that there thang is a beast son.

[usc_yogi]

It is nice when people don't blow your stuff up. I've been trying to run the AGR some. I had one game where it didn't even make it out the box before someone blew it up with C-4. Last night it was the first time it got me kills (8) and I think that is only because I was controlling it.

I tried out the MP7 not long ago. It is not bad at all, but it just seems a lot different the way it looks on screen to me than the MW3 version. I think the back two dot sights are bigger or something and it just messes up my field of vision when I am ADS. I have been using the Vector for the past couple of days. It is either good or bad depending on connection, there doesn't seem to be an inbetween.

[Berry]

I have been running, UAV, Lightning Strike, and Stealth Chopper. I got a bunch of those last night in that one game.

I book marked that game film. I will see if I can upload it.

[usc_yogi]

The new maps look okay from what I watched on Youtube. As usual, it will depend on how people play them and the lag. The new gun doesn't look like anything special. It will not beat out any of the other SMGs that is for sure.

[BigSpenda864]

What's the challenge today?

[usc_yogi]

Looks like CTF captures. I'll pass on that one.
