Started replaying the TF2 campaign on Master Difficulty. I'm very much enjoying getting my ass handed to me. Mainly grunts 1-shot punching me in the face or kicking me in the dick so hard I die. Also it's nice to hear Cooper's and BT's banter once again.
I also got Titanfall 2 yesterday (well two days ago but I spent an entire day just downloading) and having a lot of fun. The movement is so addicting, my consciousness was slidehopping as I commuted to the supermarket to buy canned tuna. Also there's something special about hopping on a teammate's titan and working together to kill a whole bunch of enemies in Frontier Defense
Man I cannot for the life of me do the gauntlet very well in Titanfall 2 lol, 37 seconds, i can't wallrun and shoot the targets very well
I can't seem to win firefights consistently in APEX - sometimes my opposition doesn't even manage to fire back, other times they just hit me more than I hit them aaaAaAA
Using grenades can help cut down the attention you need for the guards but yeah. I suck at managing my altitude, I always end up faceplanting the wall over the exit and lose like 5 seconds
world record is down to 12 seconds now.
I just got TF2 with it being so cheap, and damn this campaign is actually pretty great. I just got past the bit where you are in a factory fabricating a town, and the part where you have to climb through the sideways half finished street almost broke my brain. I don't think I've ever been that disorientated while playing a videogame.
For anyone who wants to see it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0ElNQVYDsA Achieved 5 days ago, he was close to doing 11s and this was on xbox.

So I seem to have fixed my constant memory related crashing by disabling Origin In-Game. Who would've thunk.
Get into a game, champion squad. Had two great teammates, no one talked but we pinged and healed each other. ~1350 dmg each but placed third. I added them both but they didn't respond
anyone know how to get rid of the dll error on launch? doesnt stop the game from working but it forces it to launch in windowed mode so its more of an annoyance.
That has happened to me since I got the game. I never actually knew what caused it.
played me some Titanfall 2, since it's so cheap on Origin right now To think EA condemned such a good game to die by forcing them to release during such a busy window
I picked it up on the sale too and it's actually a pretty cool game, it certainly baffles me too that EA would release it in such a crappy time with all the other hot-releases.

are there still players in australia?
At least on the higher skill spectrum there is. Queues might be a bit longer but I think you can still find games.
I'm so glad people are still playing TItanfall 2, it's probably the best shooter I've ever played.
banning cheaters doesn't really have any effect if it's F2P. put them in a separate lobby and don't tell them they are banned
I have no trouble finding games at a reasonable hour, there's a group of really good players but there's also a whole bunch of new players in the queue too.
well it was only 10 bucks so if anything ill get some enjoyment out of the single player
bought TF2 yesterday, have definitely already got my £6 out of it. Campaign was short but very sweet, "that section" was really fun and unique in it's own way. Multiplayer still has got the TF1 feel of "even if you lose, you don't feel like you've been curbstomped or wasted your time". Real fun
Single player alone is definitely worth the money
it was 7.50 for the deluxe version and 10 for the standard for some reason. idk if the sale is still going on but its something to be aware of.
Honestly the dropship escape means even defeat can feel good, you get bonus XP for winning but also the same amount of bonus XP for escaping alive so if you play good there is no penalty to you even if your team loses. Hell imagine if Apex Legends had a dropship escape, some alternate "win" condition where if you get on it and escape you get the same bonus XP that the champions (who stayed behind) would get. Caveat is that the shuttle isn't "safe" so getting on it presents an element of risk.
I've been getting inexplicable server disconnects (Connection to server timed out) that are really starting to piss me off. Most of the time it happens while I'm editing my loadouts which is still tolerable but more recently I've started to get them in the middle of matches. Is this a known issue with a fix or am I just SOL when that happens?
why are people still spouting this nonsense respawn was responsible for picking their release date
so I played apex today got matched with two level 100, fully decked in skin boys that were clearly up their game and queued - I've got jumpmaster, so Im like, alright, those boys are clearly better than me, give it to 'em - then they give it back and both drop solo to some location to leave me both clueless and alone. Understandable. Maybe it was a mistake; so ill just follow em. We land, fights happen, you know the drill, I end up with low hp and no healthkits. So I loot a deathbox and still my hunger for health; they get assaulted, but they clean pretty nicely. One of the dudes is clearly mad that I looted during a fight (despite it being a fair chunk of meters away and me having 10% of my hp) and 5 minutes later when I perished and they cleaned up, he just kinda left me to bleed out, teabagged, and left after saying "next time use your brain lol" obviously when you play online games you ought to have thick skin but it kinda made me sad thinking about how much of a bot one ought to be to try to show their chadness by spending money on lootboxes and no-lifing a shooter - on the other hand it was kinda funny so I took it but was still kinda sad thinking about how those kinds of people get to be and imagining if it wasn't me but some other dude that got matched with those two pricks. So I played one more game and got matched with a wholesome wraith that made suggestions where to go, used the ping system in a cute way, took part in the rapid-crouching while healing ritual etc. - we lost but it was in good spirit. Was able to leave with a good feeling. I should make it a habit to congratulate people on their plays when playing with randoms, just to make someone's day better, I guess.
but ea bad
