Yes - I nearly died out of bordrom when doing tutorial (when they were doing some few hours of free play)

Then I played it on Lanparty and not even unlimited Whisky could save the gameplay which got boring after 45 minutes

What? The gunplay in the first was fine. The major problem was lack of maps (which took forever to correct), and the maps weren't balanced for Titan/Pilot mixed gameplay. That and the small player-count in matches and... *continues to list thousands of things wrong with it?*

...But the gunplay? What?!? The gunplay is basically a clone of CoD with some exceptions (smart pistol)

 Didn't play it but heard there were smart gun problems, weapon balance problems, and that some guns fealt unsatisfying.

 I'll be playing this one for sure, just a little cautious from what I remember people saying.

If I recall correctly, the weapon balance for pilots (the players) were fine. The titans were wonky because the primaries were alright with the exception of the charge one. But nearly everyone ran Smoke and/or Nuke because those were the only two viable perk options.

Smart gun became a HUGE problem as the game died out and "pro" players stuck around because they could easily get headshots or kills while "GOTTAGOFAST"ing. It's why Respawn (outright said they) slowed the game down in an attempt to appeal to the masses while making the Smart Pistol into a burn card or whatever. To try to rebalance that when (IMO) they should've just dropped the speed slightly and removed the Smart Pistol entirely. Not even as a burn card. The whole weapon was a poor idea. Let's reward players for equipping something and barely having to aim!

On my way back a few hours later, I saw 2 black males around the truck. One was looking in the trunk while the other was standing on the foot stool of the cab looking at the antennae on top. That struck me as odd, and not the behavior of someone who owned the vehicle.  I doubled back as I was calling 911 to report the suspicious activity and they were both looking in the back of the vehicle.

That antennae...up to no good. 911 emergency pls

I got to thinking later on though, did I racially profile them? I don't think I did because I called based on their actions at the time as in my mind, no one that owns a vehicle would be looking at the antennae the way one guy was....and that really was the most suspicious part of it.

They abbreviated the word question to "q's", same with another word in the title. I don't get what you're trying to suggest.

Not that this is a massive scandal or anything, but to think I let some of the PoliGAFfers almost convince me that this was just bad reporting on Politico's part when it was first reported a few weeks ago.

At least we've pretty much stopped hearing the inane, baseless nonsense about the emails possibly being tampered with or forged. Which actually I kind of missed, because it was a nice litmus test for whether someone will uncritically repeat any spin that benefits Clinton.

The only ones that didn't "know" that are the kind of deplorables you see popping up on NeoGAF from time to time when things are going negatively for Clinton. You might possibly get to witness their spin in this very thread, lets wait and see.

Who is pulling Comey's strings?

Comey fucked up, bad. But honestly it's looking more and more like he either owes someone a favor or whoever it is has compromising pictures of him.

This stupid motherfucker. I really can't tell if he even has an angle. He seems like an oblivious partisan piece of shit. I was gonna defend him a bit as maybe just having idiotic timing, but this is just fucking nefarious.

His ass needs to be fired. Like Obama dropping him with a Stone-Cold Stunner and giving him the double middle finger fired.

Time to haul him into court.

Lock him up

See

This dumb motherfucker thought HE was pulling the string. "Im gonna send congress a letter and theyll leak it cause killary ahee hee hee". But that backfired.

Now Reid is firing back, saying "givr us the russians".

So this dumb motherfucker is starting to break. "Bu-bu-bu-but its election season".

Man. Such incompetent stupidity.

Dems need to stop playing bipartisan. Burn the damn bridge already.

Comey's career is over now. I hope it was worth it; well, actually I don't.

Can thank this asshat if Trump manages to win the election. Such a shame so many voters are looking for reasons to not vote for Clinton despite her steely resolve in the face against relentless unsupported attacks.

Chaffetz needs to be investigated.

If true, this only makes Comey look even worse. He would be putting his own reputation and wellbeing above his duty and the wellbeing of the FBI and the American political process. It falls short of a crime, but only barely so. It's mind-boggling just how many reasons Clinton has to fire him!

Guys, this isn't funny. Putin's blackmailing our boy James.

Not sure if this was meant to be a joke, but it's not impossible.

Comey should go down as a testament to how Democrats do themselves a disservice every time they foolishly decide to "reach across the aisle" and appoint Republicans.. The GOP is toxic, and in its current form, anyone who affiliates themselves with the party should be as far away from power as possible.

The age of Comey is over. He is done.

Seriously. How do you get so far in your career and pull something like this? It's nonsensical unless he's doing somebody a favor.

Either that or he had a mental break.

Like, there's just no decent reason. Really, really, really, wanting Clinton to lose the election isn't a good reason to fuck up your career at his level unless there are other incentives waiting for you.

Why did Obama apppoint a Republican head of CIA.

It should be assumed that all republicans are cunts, and they should not be appointed by Democrats. Hopefully the Democrats finally learned this lesson

Fire Comey before the election, imprison him after

This is fucking ridiculous. The head of the FBI is literally trying to help a wannabe fascist.

Any other peeps want to argue we need to give Comey the benefit of the doubt? No? Oh!

Destroy. Every. Aspect. Of. His. Life. Hillary and Obama. Make it so he cant see straight he is mired in so much shit. Make it so he cannot so much step foot in a government agency and he has to work at Aldi's to make ends meet.

If Trump wins should the election be nullified?

If only we didn't all chicken little ourselves to death on bullshit.

After all the socialism and terrorist talk, we have the FBI Director directly trying to influence an election that will enable a literal fascist to take over.

Because what these assholes want is not truth, but validation for their fucked up worldview. They see a world where most people are smarter than them, understand how to filter bad info from good, and in their envy and rage they create a world where only they have access to the truth.

lol Black Ops 2 is much better than Cod4, Cod 4 has nostalgia effect on it but the game has nothing on Black Ops 2, Bo2 was fun, competitive, skillful and very balanced.

Cod4 on the other hand has perks that ruin the game like Stopping power or Juggernaut, making other perks pretty useless when you are on 1v1, it also i a UAV GALORE wich is terrible, nobody has the courage to say this but it is the true, Cod4 still has a place in my heart but it was bad balanced and is miles behind Black Ops series on that front, specially Bo2 wich was absolutely amazing.

Being realistic does not hurt, Bo2 is miles better than Cod4 but Cod4 still remains an favorite simply because it was the game that changed everything and that is why we love it and i will play it, also gameplay is fantastic.

it's true, the biggest flaw of the game, not letting me shoot down UAVs

actually, one big flaw in all the CoD's is the lack of being able to make a loadout based entirely around shooting down UAVs
