Game out next week I think and looks a lot of fun indeed

Fallout 3 worth playing still?
J4MES OX4D replied to cyberninja2601's topic in RPG / Action / Adventure
The entire Fallout collection is available at 66% off right now at Bundlestars which is a steal https://www.bundlestars.com/en/bundle/fallout-bundle Get the lot -
What's everyone rolling so far? I'm sticking to UAV, Lightning Strike and Hellstorm as my trio although the last two aren't as effective as they were in BO2 especially the Lightning Strike. It takes longer to call in and the opponents get fair warning this time so you have to aim it in the spot the enemy is likely to be approaching as opposed to the quick splash in BO2. The Hellstorm doesn't seem as powerful as it was in the beta either or if I've just not mastered it very well on some maps but the best I'm getting is 1/2 kills if I'm lucky now - I was getting quads for fun even on the larger maps in the beta but it does seem rightfully toned down more now. The other streaks including some higher tier ones are powerful but can be destroyed easily - I've taken out so many Wraiths (about 1100 points I think) and Cerberus's that it does seem pointless earning them if you have a team who have launchers onside. I've stolen a few RAPS from care packages and these seem quite weak for the most part although you can land 4+ kills if the other team is useless and panic-stricken. Saw this bastard in the sky yesterday for the first time ever and it is a game-changer http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/643248853416171203/280CD94575E126BF8A565B1E90B4DD284988A494/ kudos if you earn this though.

Black Ops 2 had a max prestige of 10 and the original was 15. Treyarch never extended it I don't think although players were hacking and corrupting their rank to continue leveling. I think MW3 and AW are the only games that have had prestige extensions beyond master.
-
Apparently Treyarch will definitely not add any more levels after max prestige as they don't want to turn it into Advanced Warfare.
-
Good work Euan Nice to see Scottish dial-up performing so well too
-
I'm using the VMP at the minute and it's completely insane - getting 35-40 kills each game!
-
Skip to 0.24 and it should look like that First video I found so it's not great quality.
-
On the left side of the screen under the scorestreak tab in the lobby.
-
They have added lobby leaderboards now which is a mistake IMO as that'll bring back the lobby quitters when they are placed on a weaker team. The barracks leaderboards have always been there from day one.
-
Why are Sledgehammer still bothering and embarrassing themselves further? Nobody gave a shit about AW when it was out and certainly nobody will give a toss now Black Ops 3 is here. Desperation
-
Nope, all the maps in Black Ops 3 are brand new apart from Nuketown. Hunted has been showcased quite a bit prior to release though as it is one of their promotional maps so that could be why it seems familiar.
-
Same! I don't think we've had a double XP weekend that's started on the Thursday before and extended into 5 days. That's pretty good that players can have a couple of days play if they cannot participate much over the weekend.
-
The two maps in the video are Hunted which is primarily shown and the other one which was briefly shown is called Fringe.
-
Double XP 'weekend' starts tomorrow (19th) at 10am PST and 5pm GMT and runs through until Monday the 23rd at 10am PST/5pm GMT.

I rediscovered my love for doing challenges and am focused purely on camo challenges at this time. I'm just one camo away from a gold Kuda and want to aim to get all my SMG's on diamond. There is so much XP to be gained from playing this strategically that it really makes the whole experience more enjoyable. There are plenty of unlocks on offer and instead of just choosing the best class possible and rinsing players every game; it's great to mix things up a bit for the sake of earning stuff in-game.
-
There isn't a map called Harvester Jonny - you sure you're playing Black Ops 3 I played Combine last night 6 times in a row because the bloody lobby kept persistently voting for it - even the players who were going 6-30 every bloody game! The only reason I stayed in the lobby was due to a good connection and a load of players were there for the taking.

My overall feeling towards the game after playing the beta that this would die quicker than Battlefield Hardline and the fact it costs £50 is an absolute rip-off of the highest order. The ultimate killer for me is the fact there is no campaign which for a brand like this should be absolutely fucking essential. Everything else seems watered-down and shallow as shit. I think this game will fade quicker than Evolve and I regard that as one of the worst FPS games ever made. Many users who have been playing through EA Access suggest that it's one of the dullest and barest games they've played and a total cash grab. Star Wars fans might be enthused but the wider FPS community will not even entertain considering this game at a budget price I bet. The mainstream media will probably be more kinder but I can't see it scoring very well but each domain. Next up; Rainbow Six: Siege - that's another pure cash grab on the horizon with no single player campaign and a shite offering of content. It actually makes you appreciate the sublime work of Treyarch and Black Ops 3 who have put in a sterling effort of a content-laden game in Black Ops 3.

I just hit first prestige last night and it seems you retain all your attachments to the guns but they become locked and unlock at their usual respective levels once again. You do receive a permanent unlock token once you prestige meaning you can choose any gun or perk, specialist, scorestreak, equipment etc.. that you can acquire at the very start and retain throughout without having to unlock again. Challenges and camo also remain once you prestige and you gain one extra create a class slot although all your previous custom classes will be wiped. My advice for your unlock token is choose something essential that you wouldn't receive right from the get-go in the prestige e.g perhaps a gun that unlocks at level 20+. No point in retaining something you can automatically get at level 7 or so.

I've just purchased this tonight and can't wait to get started. It's at times like this I wish Fallout 4 and Black Ops 3 didn't exist!
-
What Specialists is everyone rolling at the minute? I've currently got Ruin equipped with the Gravity Spikes and that is excellent for doubles/triples and even quads in some modes. Just gotta execute the move before getting killed as if you don't your ability gets reset. Also tried Seraph with Combat Focus which can boost your scorestreak when activated for a period of time - you can really climb the ladder especially in objective modes such as KC and Hardpoint when activated. Firebreak is also good fun with its flamethrower. There are really OP but available to all and some are great fun to use!

I think this is the biggest problem with Black Ops 3 so far and Treyarch really need to look at fixing it in its current state. As this is a combination of netcode and map aesthetics; I'm not sure if they will be able to fix it to any standard without having to practically overhaul map design or rewrite the entire character code but it's bloody annoying playing against it particularly on maps like Infection, Metro and any others with decent cover elements. It's been an minor gripe in other Call of Duty titles previous but it just feels so more prominent in BO3. If anyone is unsure of what headglitching is; basically if you're looking at someone behind cover and all you can see is their head but from the opponent POV; they have their gun and torso seemingly exposed. Bullets don't fire from waist or chest level either - it's actually head level which is why you can get shot by someone in cover without seeing them from the head down meaning you have a small target to hit and they can kill you full view.

Bugs in a Bethesda game? Well I never! Glad you're enjoying it Phil Can't wait to play it!

Advanced Warfare did use a mixture of dedicated servers and P2P although still more reliant on the latter but I'm sure I read an interview that Treyarch were implementing dedicated servers for all current gen systems. Probably just the usual marketing ploy. The PC version has full dedicated server support for BO3 but the matchmaking standard pretty much ruins it regardless.
