  1. Steve liking the games that have a realism over bullets in a clip reminds me of hl1 ww1 mod I played called The Trenches. This game was nuts for that kinda thing if you shot 6/10 bullets (bolt action enfield rifle) and reloaded, the animation would play of 4 bullets being loaded individually by hand but if you fired 5 or 10 rounds he used the charger clip.but if you shot 9 bullets instead of just dumping that one bullet you would load 4 bullets then place the clip in. So choosing when to reload had a massive effect on game play. Also this game was just generally nuts (amazing) as mouse1 was bound to fire and mouse2 worked the bolt on your rifle.

    Out of anyone I've talked to only 1 or 2 other people would enjoy sitting in the rain in a trench waiting for the other team to make a move or for someone to blow a whistle to go over the top. We need more ww1 games/mods but I think I'm in a minority for liking the time period.

    "Max pistol, Max shotgun, Max body-armor, Max Ides"

    Best Max Ides tv ad ever


  2. No, this could totally work. In one of the flashbacks, you see him on a starry night with a woman. She turns to him;

    "Oh damnit Max! I have to say it to you! I know you always tell me I can't, but I must!"

    "No Cleopatra! You musn't! We've discussed this before!"

    " But damnit Max! I love you!"

    At this point, a QTE appears on screen. Press A.

    Max slaps Cleopatra.

    "Damnit woman! Why did you do that? EVERYTHING I LOVE DIES."

    Fade to black

    Anthony and Cleopatra are both dead, and as the camera turns away from their bodies, you see Max in the dark corner, sobbing.

    9.8/10 this summers must buy!

    only thing holding it back from a 10/10 is a lack of custom costume dlc sure to be fixed by ea in a few months.


  3. Well that could work but the first chapter def needs to be named "Give unto Caesar" or have max say it at some point while flipping a coin at you or a statue of Julius.

    A friend and myself were toying with the idea that max is a very sad man under all the glory and guts and the one liners, its the immortals plight all his friends die and hes the one that gets them killed or has to kill them. sort of a bound by fate kind of character, this would encourage metal gear like cut scenes. (also max def would "wear his sunglasses at night")

    Is the right direction for max ides or should he just be a badass who will take you out on the first dong with no human like emotion.


  4. You guys are getting eerily close to actual design meetings I've sat in on and quite frankly, think you've collaborated on EA's answer to Assassins Creed.

    I would def buy The Ides of Darkness: Origins of Max; Blue Moon Rising

    looking forward to the prologue chapter in the game where we get to stab Caesar, or perhaps work it into a tutorial. This is how max moves, this is how max climbs the sides of buildings, this is how max steers the flow of human history.


  5. wasn't sure where to put this but i guess here is as good as any really got back into bc2 so much so in the last 2 weeks i finished the climb to 50. so now that I'm done my grind (not including all plats but whatever X_X) I'm finding my self just kinda having more "fun" with the game. I guess I mean not just playing to win or to grind out the next rank. So I found out that smoke grenades when shot up into the air will time out and just go off in the air. Creating your own clouds in this game is possible, so the first thing i did after learning about this was: bfbc2game20100621002920.jpg

    300 foot willy as seen from anywhere on the map :D


  6. Don't much feel like digging can we get a first post edit or something for times and what ever?

    In-game name is A.Hillacre,

    I think I played with Chris in the beta I tryed my best not to geek out about thumbs and shout about wizards over the squad voice. Did mention I liked his pod cast so hopefully it was thumbs Chris and not some weird bizzaro Remo with a crappy pod cast that I said i liked ;o


  7. buildings will fall when you take out a % of the walls holding it up

    Note: not just the ground floor it seams to be % based so some of the 2nd floor walls has to go as well if your trying to demo buildings with snipers on the 3rd :D

    Not all buildings are destroyable but the walls in them will be. Large concrete structures seam to be indestructible.


  8. That's probably one of my favourite things about it. The enemies planted a bomb on one of the points. Where the rest of the team seemed to be slacking off playing deathmatch, my squad blasted through the walls of one 2nd floor house, to the one next to it. Caught the bastards completely by surprise. Aaah, fun times.

    I know the point your talking about base 2 objective B. This has been my fav defense tactic, get in the top of the none objective building blow holes in the walls so you can see the bomb and throw nades into planting foes :D

    I hope we get a map editor I want dense housing maps so this kind of building to building stalingradish combat can happen on a larger scale.


  9. I miss the console, my friends list keeps clearing its self. It would be nice to tell what server/ip/lag and what not all ingame. oh also were missing the abilty to stop loading servers in the server list like valve games and stop loading a map when you want to quit the game with out joining the next round.

    Wasn't medic squads always a problem in bf games?
