  1. You have to subscribe to the wall street Journal to read the entire story so I didn't look at the entire thing. What are people buying instead? I would think that not buying guns in general is a good thing, but I don't think that is realistic.
  2. As we use to tell my son a B is an Asian F (my wife is Chinese). Political correctness is so fucked. Also imagine how head a shoulders above the rest the Asian that did make it in will be when compared to the other students that got in to make room for non Asians. How do they manage to identify the kids as Asian? Last names? I know that kids hear are given a pin number to do their applications. I don't know if the University gets to see the names until they get accepted. You can chose to be identified in a certain group but you don't have to.
  3. I might pick it up later also. I kind of like Far Cry 3 but it wasn't a game that had longevity after you beat it. Almost no one played the co-op or multiplayer. It's not worth $69 to me. I might at around $40
  4. I comes down to sales forecast and what they tell share holder. $325M is a huge number, but the press kept saying the spent $500M on the game which is a huge shortfall. $325 translates to 5.25M copies at an average price of $60. The financial analyst where saying that the game would have no problems selling 13.5M copies. That falls real short of expectation. I don't know who is to blame for that. Activation or Bungie. Lets face it, the story is real boring. Nothing fun happens until level 20 and after that it is a pretty repetitive grind. How many time can we do the same friggen strike. I'm rather tired of beating the Arkon priest ass. It seems like I do the same 3 for tiger strikes all the time. Never did the VOG because my scheduling does not align with people, there is no match making and it takes too fuking long. I bet there a couple million people that play game that fit in the category that didn't bother with the game when those restrictions were announced. Is bungie or Activition responsible for those decisions? I suspect bungie so they screwed up.
  5. Like Advance Warfare or not, I don't think there are too many release quality issues. Not for me anyways. The game however is pretty darn stale. I don't know how much of a say Activision has on the game design as opposed to the studio. I wouldn't say that more people are interested in pve than pvp. CoD has already surpassed the Destiny sales number and people purely play pvp in that case. People are just accustomed to playing CoD regardless of quality/content. Destiny could have nailed pvp in my opinion. Different planets with different environment, different abilities if well balanced, lots of guns and skill trees with pretty cool jumping abilities. What's not to like about that?
  6. Probably because so many people have the hate on for traditional PvP games like call of duty and they want to scoop up those players. According to sales data Destiny is at about half what the financial analysts were predicting and that could mean big problems for bungie. They are at around 7.5M and financial models were predicting about 13.5M http://www.vgchartz.com/yearly/2014/Global/ According to this http://www.gamespot.com/forums/system-wars-314159282/activision-loses-1-5-billion-market-cap-b-c-of-des-31568439/ Bungie will lose out on bonus money because of lower than expected sales. No one ever likes that so they are trying to make it more appealing.
  7. Well I know that I've been on the shitty side of a couple of connections and seen people warp back in fort a couple of times on that mode so I quit. Unfortunately that's also part of the community experience since they can't seem to get proper connections or servers since MW2
  8. http://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic/1876-momentum/
  9. I don't know why but I'm still somewhat enjoy it. I agree with the problems that people are pointing out but they don't seem to upset me as much as other people. I find that I usually have a decent connection when I restrict to North America so that's good for me. All I play however is dom with the UAV in support mode as my only streak.
  10. The problem at first is that they have to introduce all the main characters, locations and motivations. It does take a long time and my first time reading it I gave up until I watched the series. I think it is worth being patient with it.
  11. I don't see why he would change his user name and from what I can see he hasn't been on for ages.
  12. You can setup a LAN game and select bots, the number of bots per team and the bots difficulty level. I think I tried it once or twice and I believe I had access to all of the gear when I did. One game I played was DOM and my friking bots didn't PTFO just like the real thing The other feature is combat readiness. I am not 100% sure how it works. I believe it's an anonymous people and bot setup. I don't think there is any chat. I tried it twice to see what it was and getting a match took a lot of time and the connection was awful so I don't think it is used very much. You can still split screen (on the PS4 anyways)
  13. I wouldn't mind depending on the game. ME3 for example could be fun yet painfull (what button does what again ) Some of those servers are probably pretty slow these days
  14. Often between noon and 4 our time
  15. I haven't done the raid. I just don't have the time or I am not one when you guys are one which is mostly evenings. I have family responsibilities around that time. I do strike a lot. I'll probably create a number of characters and just do the patrols on earth. That work but is slow going. Protecting the warsaw and killing the spider can pretty much be soloed with decent gear. I've done the daily strike at level 28 (im 27) but that can be a lengthy pain in the ass solo as well depending on the mission. Having another decent character is making more and more sense since that will help for the weekly strikes also. I have some decent gear exotic gear for a hunter that I haven't used because it is only level 12 or 13, maybe I'll scrapped that and continue with my warlock. Does dismantling provide the same number of shards regardless of upgrading or not? What does legendary give you? What does exotic give you? It takes no time at all to earn legendary stuff with marks if I had to and dismantle that maybe
  16. How are you guys getting your ascendant shards? I get plenty of energy but shards elude me. Even in the daily mission on level 28. I need a bunch to level up. All my armor is ready to go but I lack the materials
  17. Have you guys tried it? It's actually a fun mode if you can get a team that PTFO. It's awful if you have people protecting their K/D or playing for their streaks. You can accumulate a lot of points with it, It's also pretty well balanced. I played to a tie 3/4 times yesterday
  18. It think it depends on the type of sights/optics you use. I noticed that some are very slow compared to iron. Thermal for example.
  19. Interference is possible. Do you have neighbors close by? Routers usualy can support multiple channels and you need to make sure that you aren't using the same channels. Usually the channels assign automatically but it is possible to set them manually. I don't think that's the problem since you said your aren't particularly technical. It very hard to change those accidentally.
  20. Are you close to the router when you do the test? I have 50 Mb at home and I can get as little as 2 Mb in some rooms. Also check how you configure the wireless 802.11n is the most versatile. I've seen cases where I set my up in a certain way where the speed is very slow and I set it up for n at it works fine (although it shouldn't make a difference).
  21. if out of duck tape staples.
  22. I noticed that you also seem to be team dependant (more) to get you streaks. If you have a bad team it takes no time to get spawn trapped on many of these maps. I play mostly domination. If your team doesn't play the objectives or cap the flags its pretty miserable. Many of the streaks have a support option in the configuration menu. So if you are the type of player that racks up a lot of points by dies many times along the way that may be worth a look. I run UVA, care package and vulcan. I'll probably change over to system hack once it is available. Many of the streaks have to be controlled manually also which makes them risky to use. You don't want to stop to use one of those lower streaks just to have yourself killed and end your streaks. I think that's actually all good. It balances things out nicely and most of the streaks aren't over powered anyways
  23. I have a nice helmet that makes me look like venom. That makes all the difference in the world when playing this game I also have a number of guns I have tried
  24. All day. Took Monday/Tuesday off to play. Back to work Wed
  25. Are you guys having any success with the SMGs? I seem to be losing all gun fights to ARs with trying to use them. ARs seem much more dominant thus far
