Oh sweet, I didn't know next-gen games powered by Cell could be so small. GD-ROM 4 lyfe

Started my PS3 update, set your watches.

Someone play Warhawk with me someday.

Supposedly, an official PS3 bluetooth headset is going to be released this summer, and it looks pretty sweet:

I think I might pick it up along with Socom or Warhawk then.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #9 on:** April 01, 2008, 09:28:09 PM »

Fuck SonyStyle

That was the fastest PS3 update of all time, I'm gonna buy the game now.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #10 on:** April 01, 2008, 09:28:36 PM »

I'll play with you, but I can only host 8-player games 'cause the fegs at sony don't trust the expensive extra bandwith i pay for every month

Rman · « **Reply #11 on:** April 01, 2008, 09:29:37 PM »

I might join you guys soon. We could start an EB Warhawk clan.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #12 on:** April 01, 2008, 09:32:01 PM »

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #13 on:** April 01, 2008, 09:33:19 PM »

Good plan.

Gimme yo tagz niggaz and I'll add you. But I'm using 360 private chat for my talking at this time.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #21 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:49:25 PM »

i'll try

oh, btw, from my short experience, unless you're playing with friends all the time the bluetooth headset isn't necessary

i couldn't understand a fucking thing anyone was saying, and there were only a couple of people talking in a 32 player match

plus, they should never have given people the option of altering their voices

voice alteration = fail gibberish

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #22 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:52:17 PM »

They're learning XBox's lessons from 2002.

I'm going to be playing almost exclusively with my IRL friend so I want the headset. Is there a mute?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #23 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:54:29 PM »

yeah, you can select individuals to mute, or you can choose "mute all"

at least they got that right

y2kev · « **Reply #24 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:57:13 PM »

in the beeeetuh you couldn't mute

and this one bastard i was playing with put his headset next to the radio and it was just unnnnbelievable

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #25 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:58:48 PM »

whenever i've flown a warhawk, i've lasted approximately 30 seconds each time

this is just like every other mp game, there's already dudes who play this for hours every day and have every trick in the book figured out

i hate that shit, y2kev

if i could permanently mute people in real life for doing stuff like that i would

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #26 on:** April 01, 2008, 10:59:49 PM »

So uh how the fuck do I steer my vehicle left and right

What the fuck is this

i haven't played the game since the beta (last summer), but the antiair turrets were POWERFUL. like i used warhawks for vs. tanks and transport only.

i dunno how they've balanced it though.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #28 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:02:16 PM »

Why the fuck can't I turn a fucking vehicle

I can use the left stick on foot but when I'm in a vehicle it doesn't turn WHAT THE FUCK

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #29 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:03:34 PM »

go into your settings, you can manually change everything

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #30 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:05:32 PM »

I have to customize my controls in order to turn? What is the default for this shit? When I'm in a plane both sticks move the reticule, in a truck one stick does NOTTTHINNNG

I turned this piece of shit off, I'm going to find instructions online or something.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #31 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:08:37 PM »

you can select controller help on the menu under each (character, ground vehicles, planes) and a diagram shows you what does what

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #32 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:09:55 PM »

I checked that out before I started playing, but I didn't change any features.

Is it normal to have one stick go totally inactive when you board a vehicle? What's the standard button for turning a truck? Select?

Nope that's map

DON'T TELL ME IT'S ONLY BY MOTION CONTROL

I'll have to disable that in options or something.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #33 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:32:13 PM »

yeah, uncheck that motion control box

i leave mine on for flight, but that's it

i have also learned that you shouldn't start a server called "practice"

mine was immediately joined by two knuckleheads who could fly better than chuck yeager

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #34 on:** April 01, 2008, 11:42:08 PM »

When I got in a plane before I flew across the entire map backwards until I used the Suicide command

I thought it was a Bluetooth issue or something

Tomorrow I will try again

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #35 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:38:55 PM »

omfg

So my friend takes like 40 minutes to download and install the game (and again, has to install the damn update seperately - why isn't it included in the download?).

I boot mine up and I get a blinking screen of white noise like I got once with Ratchet. He says it happens to his all the time. Telling me through my XBox headset of course.

And we're both playing on 4 foot long USB cables.

Oh and I have to install the update AGAIN - WHAT THE FUCK

This console is an abomination.

MCD · « **Reply #36 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:40:36 PM »

white noise? that's happens with me all the time.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #37 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:41:41 PM »

What's the deal with that? I never hear anyone mention it, it's only happened these two times.

Why would I have to download the update again? What the fuck man?

MCD · « **Reply #38 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:42:37 PM »

dunno, happens whenever i start a game.

probably my tv.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #39 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:43:28 PM »

We both have Samsungs, what about you?

MCD · « **Reply #40 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:43:58 PM »

same here.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #41 on:** April 02, 2008, 08:44:59 PM »

thirty fucking percent on my second download of this STUPID FUCKING PATCH

PS3 goes through monthly love-hate cycles with me. The hate begins when I turn it on for something other than movies.

Why.

Here's the update:

Quote

Client-side updates for v1.3 patch:
- Bio-Field Emitter that creates a zone of healing for allies and a zone of damage for enemies.
- Mechanic's Field Wrench that can be used to repair allied vehicles and turrets as well as damage enemy vehicles and turrets.

Additional updates:
- Integration of new insignias and paint schemes
- Targeting enhanced for .50 caliber turret
- Point value update for CTF defend and flag-carrier kill
- Sudden death trigger fixed for CTF matches
- Disabled CTF flag throw/drop functionality
- HOME integration and game-launching
- New VOIP functionality

Cool I guess. That's a lot of stuff for free considering what they charge for DLC.

Why is it $8 for one craft and one map?

Me too, so's he.

In any case, the game rules despite the hardware it is saddled with. At least they did the buddy list as right as they could (actually, why couldn't they implement their own sort of in game XMB like Halo 2 did?)

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #51 on:** April 03, 2008, 11:58:26 AM »

So wtf then, it doesn't happen with other HDMI devices on these TVs.

y2kev · « **Reply #52 on:** April 03, 2008, 12:09:50 PM »

Isn't it caused by a ground loop? Do you have a 3 prong to 2 prong converter you can use for the power cable? It will eliminate the ground loop.

When I played warhawk, I had rolling green bars and static....then I changed sides /haze

i dont know how to fix it lol

but ive found the source of your problem

that said, hdmi with my ps3 is flawless, i believe its only with certain sets

some tvs allow firmware updates, this might fix your problem assuming their is a fix

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #54 on:** April 07, 2008, 05:04:18 PM »

This game fucking rules. I wish it had a single player so there was even more to enjoy. I also wish my friend didn't suck dick at it.
