CRYTEK is Going to Make me Go Play HOMEFRONT. THQ, Really?

Post » Thu Dec 31, 2009 8:28 am

The most recent patch that went live a couple weeks ago or something didn't really fix anything man.

I'm still running into things like, overlapping music, showing unlocks for no reason, dog tags don't update after being viewed, singleplayer unlockables don't update when viewed, and host merging sessions that... don't merge. annoying.

The Multiplayer is Rad, but it can be waaaaay better.

Crytek is going to make me go play HOMEFRONT instead, THQ fixed their Multiplayer faster....Surely, SURELY Crytek can do better.


A Double XP weekend wouldn't hurt either.... or DLC maps.

Just Sayin....

MP is f***ed, but is still so fun and addictive.

I doubt you will play Homefront lol, that game looks like s*** to be honest.

Haha - I traded in my copy of Blops for this, so now I can't even play with my mates that are still gaming on that horrible excuse for a franchise.

Only regret i have is not having a bunch of Aussie mates to play with, other than that I'm glad i traded it, on another note, I traded MW2 in for Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise and I think that was the best choice, no competetion between those 2 games for enjoyability and originality

Tell you what despite the lag add me to your friends list. I could always use some good teammates in a round. Like about an hour ago. I was MVP in a round. Could not believe my luck. But anywho. I've played in worse conditions when it comes to ping.
If anything, I'll spot them out from a distance and rack up some extra points by spotting :D

From what I gathered the patch...

- took away the ability to hold in left stick to reduce recoil

- made the orbital strike weaker and not able to penetrate through ceilings anymore

- weakened maximum nanosuit

- impoved host migration slightly

Na man, I got taken out yesterday twice through ceilings. Once on city hall in the passage by the middle of the map and once on wall street although to be fair, the wall street one was in the raised walkway so probably doesn't count as a proper ceiling.

Nothing could make me play Homefront short of THQ coming round my house with a gun.

From what I gathered the patch...

- weakened maximum nanosuit How? by making the duration shorter?

- impoved host migration slightly the game has NEVER migrated the host successfully for me it ALWAYS kicks me into a game by myself or to the frontend lobby

I sold my copy of Black Upssss back in January for $45.. no regrests neither. You know what is really bothering me? I'm having the same issues as I had with the POS Blops, the reason that I sold it. Then Gears of War Beta over is only over a week away, Blink will be relased early, in about 3 weeks so this game can be over for a lot of people. I still enjoy it very much, I just want to experience this game how it is supposed to be...

really homefront? Game play is heading in the right direction but the game was a joke, this big story which made you feel for people was 2 - 3 hours to complete lol, graphics would of been good a year or so ago, Homefront should of been more RPG like Mass Effect 2. Traded homefront in for crysis 2, will i keep crysis 2? i don't know, with brink coming i can trade it in for that.
