  1. Just seen that the Elder Scrolls online is coming out on April 4th 2014 on PC with the One and PS4 versions out later in the year. Cannot wait!
  2. I agree with Tommy and Playertd about the smaller maps. At first, I didn't like the scale in the maps of MW3 and BO2 as they seemed to focused purely on gunplay but actually the larger maps I am finding a bit of a chore now. I usually opt for Cranked now which relies on a rotation of small to medium maps so a DLC with these types of maps will enable me to experience them all in this mode. If the DLC consists of 4 larger maps and 1 small one; that means I will only get to essentially play one map in Cranked which wouldn't tempt me financially. I don't really want to see another Siege or Chasm. Don't get me wrong; I liked Array, Rundown, Hanger 18, Kowloon and many large maps previously in the franchise as they were well designed but I think I'd find them a bit exhausting to play now. Also the larger maps of late such as Turbine, Siege, Aftermath, Carrier, Drone and Chasm, have been poorly designed whereas the smaller maps on offer like Slums, Standoff, Underground, have been pretty enjoyable.
  3. Too right! BF4 is very ambitious but most issues are technical or just basic and not due to sheer gravity of the game.Battlefield 3 ran to a very high standard throughout so I am shocked at the vast nature of the problems. I thought the COD transition with a new engine would cause heaps of woes but actually it runs superbly in most instances. PC has been iffy at times but fixes have been prompt and effective. I think the COD setup in collating known problems and rectifying them is excellent, swift and perfectly implemented. The franchise has definitely made huge strides since Black Ops 1 in sorting out niggles. DICE's problems along with EA has been a major kick in the teeth for both. I blame EA more and most of their games are dreadful off the bat technically.
  4. This may sound daft but can PS4 support off-the-shelf capture cards or is every recording direct through the PS4's share button? Not having theater is a major blow in Ghosts. It's just typical that the 'share' feature isn't functioning properly just like when you had an epic game on Black Ops or MW3 and you'd be host migrated or the match would stupidly not appear in your fileshare! Is this problem occurring on all games or is it just Ghosts?
  5. Ghosts is definitely my priority game over the next few months and I usually play Call of Duty over Battlefield but I've spent good money on BF4 and am disappointed that it still doesn't work properly 6 or so weeks in:-( Ghosts has had its problems just like any other COD game but it's nothing too serious and the developers always detect and rectify issues big or small quite early on which is really good. I don't think DICE have had any game-breaking issues before so this is really a major culture-shock for them and it looks like they are struggling to fix even the most basic of problems! They are under huge pressure now along with EA and it looks like they will be working around the clock next few days at best. Nice too see the problems are now fully recognised but whether they can fix them is another story. I'm just really happy Ghosts is looking good despite some early wobbles particularly on PC. It's not perfect but it wouldn't be Call of Duty if it was lol!
  6. Dunno how many on here play BF4 but here's a list of the known issues; 22 in total (holy jesus) and their current plan of action http://mp1st.com/2013/12/10/22-battlefield-4-bugs-fixed-according-dice/?utm_content=featured#.UqhURPRdXKc There's been 3 patches in 72 hours in which haven't improved the game in my view but the ongoing problems mentioned in their list are still outstanding and are the main source of discontent. Hopefully it will be all ironed out come China Rising and the Second Insult DLC.
  7. Dragon Age Origins complete pack for £4.99! LA Noire £4.99 or £6.24 for the complete edition.
  8. Great comeback from Man City but not enough to top the group. Morale boosting win though ending Bayern's 10 game winning streak in the competition. Man Utd edged it and did the job but looked very fragile and untidy at times.
  9. I read somewhere that Watch Dogs and #DriveClub have been pushed back until April 2014 at the earliest which is Ubi's end of financial year. They quoted a 6 month delay at best which is really bad. The Division is set for 'late' 2014 which will probably be November. If that gets delayed; oh boy will they be unpopular!
  10. Wasn't Rainbow 6 Patriots supposed to come out in 1977 lol! Watch Dogs and #DriveClub was a major cock-up as they were supposed to be the main showcases for the next gen from the start. Patriots is apparently a next gen title but will probably surface in 2033 according to analysts...
  11. Oh yes indeed! I am in two minds as to get this on PC or on my future PS4. Either way I cannot wait!!
  12. I'm sure everyone saw this game at E3. I've found a short video released yesterday about the Snowdrop engine which is used to power the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2NJSAvuiQ0 Here is also the original trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWJD8DMasCU This title is my tip to be the biggest game of all time! It Will be the ultimate software to prove the power and possibilities of the current gen. Just hope Ubisoft don't delay it like they have with the rest of their next gen titles! Watch Dogs seemed to be wobbling as it edged to release but if this game can maintain the quality that we saw in the first instance; it will certainly be a miraculous game very early on in the generation. Cannot wait!
  13. I've had back-to-back hard-freezes from today's update. The two patches in the last 36 hours have done nothing!
  14. Confirmed now http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/12/09/official-call-of-duty-site-confirms-names-of-the-four-dlc-map-packs-for-ghosts/
  15. There must be a catch... http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/12/09/infinity-ward-giving-free-personalization-pack-for-the-holidays/
  16. Planetside 2 is excellent for a F2P. Also may I recommend shoplifting?
  17. He'll probably download the dog and it'll be a poodle!
  18. Hotline Miami is £1.74 from £6.99 with 24 hours remaining
  19. Makes a change; she's usually the one in the dock! Cannot stand that cow.
  20. If Battlefield goes annual; it will be an even bigger cash-grab. It'll be like rolling DLC except every 12 months you have to weigh-in £50 for the 'new game'. At least COD offers some diversity between studios. Whatever shitty update they did today; I've lost about 4 ranks and a shed-load of campaign 'cloud' data. I am also a Premium user but cannot play China Rising because I am apparently NOT a Premium user despite it clearly showing that I am. Xbox One users apparently cant download their exclusive Second 'Insult' Assault DLC and a few key servers have lost a wealth of information regarding favourited players. My settings have also completely bollocksed up and reset. Nightmare:-(
  21. What does everyone make of this match-fixing palava? Sam Sodje arrested the other day and DJ Campbell nicked this morning. Pricks the lot of em! Just goes to show how easy it can be done - £70,000 for 1 red card is easy money and it's probably happening on an even more massive scale. Really f*****g the fans, clubs and their own team mates. Burn the lot of em!
  22. Oh so not worth the money http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/12/09/guard-dog-skin-called-the-wolf-coming-to-ghosts-for-3/ I'd be happy with microtransactions for things like camo but in all honesty; I couldn't give a flying fig what my dog looks like as long as it kills! What's next; a scarf for your soldier to use on Whiteout!?
  23. Asylum and City were absolutely remarkable games but I've been a bit put-off with the reviews of Origins. It's made by a new developer isn't it too? May pick it up on Steam if it dips below £20 notes
  24. Just released a 888mb update for Battlefield 4. Good you may think? Nope! In doing so; they managed to crash every single server without prior warning that an update was being enforced. Everyone currently connected has been booted. They have just wiped my friends entire statistics for the day and killed his server in the process. Bah, you gotta love EA for their downright foresight in sheer stupidity and carelessness!
