  1. I think it's done for, to be honest, I mean the detective knows who I am and so does axilius, the only two active members in the maffia are me and Caboose and Caboose being dead, I am fighting an uphill battle.

     

    So um I vote for starting the second round and I still ask for JL to make an ending post, since he writes really really great stories.

  2. About the rail gun I wil give some advice which works for me.

     

    The railgun has a few characteristics.

     

    The sound of the gun charging is easy to recognize in a loud battle, make sure to pay attention.

     

    The sound also pitches higher if it's about to fire.

     

    The rail gun has a rather small area of affect compared to other power weapons.

     

    Now why am I telling you this?

     

    It is also one of the most easy weapons to dodge, making use of a thruster pack or hardlight shield should prevents the rail gun from doing a lot of harm.

     

    As someone who used the hardlight shield a lot, the actual shot is easy to block due to the high pitch.

     

    The same thing counts for the thrusterpack, however damage is less avoidable.

     

    BUT COOOOLDFREEZE, I can't hear that sound if it is being fired from a long distance!?

     

     I hear you, my little spartan brothers and sisters,

    Well the Railgun also offers the pleasure of showing when it is about to charge, due to the blue glow it emits when it is almost ready to fire. At first this might seem difficult to time, but getting to know the high pitch is also getting to know the blue light.

     

    The other being that it still needs some travel time and dodging it with a thruster pack is likely to give no damage at all.

     

    Another thing I do against a rail gun, is closing the distance. First of all to stagger your enemy. second, most people use p34nuts technique, zooming in, this technique could be handy, but most people think it is the same as sniping. ever tried sniping someone from up close while zoomed in?

     

    My tips for using the rail gun:

     

    1. get a feel for the weapon, knowing when you fire and where it is going to hit, is a quicker and faster way then using the zooming in technique.

     

    2. The rail gun is great for throwing vehicles of balance, not considering the banshee and or mantis ( While it drops the mantis shields quite low to be honest.) Ever tired of getting ran over by a rocket hog? Blast  a railgun bullet at the side and watch that thing fly.

     

    Also thanks to p34nut for not forgetting that we used to be a team  :crybaby:

  3. Because his panic was a bad thing for the Mafia.

     

    I have been stirring up people for a purpose, and give things quite a bit more thought than you seem to think.

     

    When Mafia 1.0 is over, I'll explain what I've been doing.

     

    Oh, and in case you've forgotten, the first time I stirred people up, I turned out to be right.

    It was a bad thing for mafia, but voting for him if I was a maffia member would have been incredibly stupid, the mafia are with four people, voting against their own, would have been incredibly stupid.

     

    It looked more like a lucky guess.

     

    Still give me a good reason why I would be mafia, I have done nothing what others haven't done either.

  4. I defended caboose in the beginning, when he started panicking, I had changed my vote to him. Why would I be voting for him if I was mafia?

     

    Axilius has been stirring up people since the beginning and now he does that again.

     

    The only two suspects in my book are either Ruby Rose or Ledgend, they are the only ones, who only vote and never discuss anything. 

     

    If people remembered that while I defended Caboose, he also asked this of moth man and some other people. 

     

    The reason of Axilius is blunt and not at all being explained.

     

    I vote Ruby Rose.

     

    first to shout and jump on the bandwagon

  5. It isn't strange to describe it as a lack of content.

    Counter Strike wasn't priced as high as Titanfall, it was old and was generally a re-work on the Source engine used in Half Life 2, it is almost like a DLC for Half Life 2.

     

    If you pay £50 for Titanfall to realise that there is no campaign, you'd be very disappointed. The amount of content and quality of content resulting in Titanfall's value does not equate to its pricetag.

    If you pay £15 for Rust to realise that there is no campaign, you wouldn't mind.

     

    Other games still have a high price tag, even though they do not have a campaign.  

    It generally depends on the game. Rust is a survival simulator, when there is no campaign I generally understand it.

    But other full fledged MP titles, stil have a price tag of 50 or 60. 

  6.  

    I mean re-written literally.

     

    Changing the store or plot of a game makes it a different game. To make Last Light or Mass 1/2/3 for Xbox One or PS4, you need to rewrite some scripts and make a lot of graphical edits for newer shaders.

     

    It isn't as simple as played a DirectX7 game with DirectX9, it is like DX7 for a machine supporting DX11, it just wouldn't work unless changes were made.

    I see, However I like some HD versions of games (Halo CEA, Fable Anniversary)  were cool. would be cool what you said, loved to see a highly adjusted version of some old games.

  7. Do you prefer the Steam marketing model to that of Microsoft's Xbox Live and Sony's Playstation Network Plus?.

     

    Steam

     

    Would you be interested in small indie games, such as Rust, Starbound, Papers[,] Please, and any other ones not listed?

     

    Nope, not an indie gamer

     

    Would you embrace the idea of rewriting, re-texturing, re-modelling and adding a bit more to existing PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 games (examples would be Metro:

    Last Light, Mass Effect Trilogy).

     

    From my experience as someone who mods a lot, al lot of modded content doesn't keep up with professional writers.

     

    Do you regret investing in Next Generation consoles, or are you glad that you didn't invest in them (or did invest in them)?

     

    I would never, depends if you are well informed or not. I am planning to buy a xbox one. Not because I want the best graphics or anything, but just because I prefer console gaming to PC gaming and Halo is not on pc which also counts for me.

     

    Do you have high-end hardware yourself, such as high-end PC-Monitor / TV / speakers? Do you think they make your gaming experience better on the new consoles and the old ones (as well as PC)?

     

    I got a 42'' samsung led tv, a gaming pc, a xbox 360 and ps3, a wii, every single nintendo, besides the wiiu.

     

     Who in the world would develop Titanfall and believe it is something to be proud of? Unfinished game, no single player campaign, which is bearable, 6v6 multiplayer only, you aren't even allowed private lobbies. The only thing that Titanfall does well is balanced gameplay. This lack of content paired with price is an insane step back for the progression of gaming, it is a sprint away from what is regarded as 'Perfect Capitalism', where the consumer would know exactly how much the game is worth before buying (they don't. They purchase Titanfall only to soon realise it is a 6v6 online game without much more to it). Now the b1tchfest about Titanfall is over, we can discuss wasted potential.

     

    Describing it as a lack of content is strange,

     

    Battlefield 2 did not have single player campaign.

    Quake aren had no single player campaign.

    counter strike had no single player campagin.

     

    Titanfall is known as a Multi player only shooter.

     

    The added campaigns is a waste of consumer money. BF 3 and 4 had useless campaigns, unreal tournament 3 had a useless campaign.

     

    games that try to focus on campaign and multiplayer, usually and up with one being inferior to the other.

     

    While Titanfall is not perfect and if its any good can be a personal chose, it does however try to feature a combination of both, I call that a step forward in MP shooters. 

     

     Respectable pricing. I saw Call of Duty: Ghosts for £26.99 on the Steam store a month back, it was on offer. Compare that to the pricing set by Xbox One or PlayStation 4. £40-50/$60-70. Older games, such as Black Ops One, are not still £40, which is, or has been until recently, still the case on Xbox Live store.

     

     

    The prices are set by the game companies, not the platforms, considering steam is a digital only store and thousands of people buy into these deals without any of the developers losing money because of it and this certainly not because of the people buying these games for console.

     

     I'll just start by saying that the generic comment of both parties, Microsoft and Sony have wasted more potential than I can readily believe. First, marketing model. Already it is littered with microtransactions and overpriced games, especially when you consider value scaled to content, it is a bit off in that department.

     

     

    Steam does this as well, just like the cod deal for ghosts. Microtransactions are mostly used on massive multiplayer online role playing games. There a few games which use microtransactions on console, most recent being world of tanks for xbox 360 and a while back hand of khul. GTA V uses this system as well, but offers you a way to earn the money on different missions and varied activities.

     

    I dislike the indie industry, not because all there games are "bad" some I enjoyed very much, but people like phil fish, who is completely content with ******** of his fans, by cancelling FEZ 2, just because he had an argument on twitter, he deemed himself the all important game developer, while just making one good game.

     

    The 720p to 1080P, sony used blu-ray for its ps3 system, the only games reaching the famed 1080p were software enhanced.

     

    All of the next gen systems (including the Wiiu) haven't even reached their potential yet. remember that the xbox 360 first gen release, had no HDMI or 1080p support.

  8. The community.

     

    My first day on the forums and I felt welcome, now I made some new friends to play Halo with and find a community which is just as devoted to Halo as me. 

     

    The mods enforce the rules, but are never seen as authority figures. To be part of this community is one of the nicest things to be, you can expect to be helped with your answers, fought against for you challenges, but most of all: Feel welcome and be a part of someting.

     

    No matter what race, sexe, age or preference. you are treated as friends and family.

     

    I thank you all for making me feel welcome and I wish for everyone new, to have the same experience as me.

     

    Thank you 343I community and on to the next 3 amazing years!
