^ME3 isn't here yet...so...? I'll be playing it but until then (and probably a little after), BF3. Skyrim will come later: when I have a time where I socializing isn't or highest priority (since some people are off on vacation) as well as actually doing things.

It wasnt realistic. Same reason I forget which gun, but they are upping its power to be closer to real life.

An IRNV IRL isnt THAT clear and doesnt highlight people that far away that clearly.

love Battlefield 3, Mass Effect 3 is were it's at. But for the time being , I'll have to settle with Skyrim and Skyward Sword.


Crysis 2 just might be another good one besides Battlefield 3 but I don't know if you like crysis 1 & 2. That's one of my favorates.

that scope was so incredibly imba. Could just see absolutely anything anywhere anyhow haha. Obviously its an upgrade so it should be 'better' than ironsights (cod4promod player so I love ironsights) but it was so very much better lol.

Definately waiting for a good period of nothing time so i can just solid play skyrim though hah.

I had several kills with the MAV. Last time i played, 5 kills on Tehran Highway. I got most kills with vehicle, even though it doesn't show or tell you what you got the kills with, lol.

Its so funny to run people over with the MAV though. They get ultra bitter about it.


Only problem with people up in those high spots, EASY kills.

I know,2 days ago my whole Teram got terrorized by a Colonel and he even managed to kill me with his damn MAV which gave me ultra-lulz.
Its was just so hilaroius that a damn recon-drone hunted our team.
As soon as I get MAV I'll do this.
And the flying snipers is something we should definatly try.

How does one eject from an airplane in the direction of motion? That was pretty sick, but was a little too fake to be as awesome as it might be otherwise.

That what the game does, ejects you upwards. It's a bug if you will. Totally legit, there's a video of him failing loads and one of the full spawn -> death

Coming from the person who plays Halo? lol Its not a simulator...

Plus I would think you'd appreciate someone who is maximizing their ability with what they are given in the game. If it ejects you up, use that.

It doesn't have grey outs either. Its annoying for myself who knows from Flight Sims not to do it but I had to re-train myself to just hold onto the turn as long as I wanted.

Halo isn't meant to be *that* realistic. One of my favorite parts of it is the fact that the physics are such that crazy, unexpected things can happen, and you usually don't feel limited by the gameplay. However, if I'm playing as a human in a game that looks to be much more grounded in reality, I don't really expect to be able to eject from the front of a plane at a few thousand feet up, instantly pull out a rocket launcher and destroy another plane flying at hundreds of miles an hour towards me, then land back on my airplane...it just doesn't fit. It's really, really awesome, but it seems a bit broken at the same time given the context.

For the record, short of bad glitches like superbouncing in Halo2, if that's the way the game works then I have no problem with people doing it.

Side note: I think I might quit videogames altogether if I was the guy who got killed in that video lol.
