What gives?

Rank up.
The M200 is horribly underpowered compared to the M110. The only benefit is the scope.
Has shit been getting better at all?
I'm in two minds whether to buy this or not. Any advice?
[QUOTE=Tea Guy;28718941]Rank up.[/QUOTE]
The Steam pre-order bonus was getting immediate access to the air drone. I didn't get it either until I ranked up.
[QUOTE=RaxaHax;28718968]The M200 is horribly underpowered compared to the M110. The only benefit is the scope.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say horribly underpowered, depends if they have flak jacket. M110 would be better if you were fighting an all flak jacket team but otherwise M200 is better because it 1 shots and has the thermal.
[QUOTE=GetBent;28718172]I use the masterkey on my M16 for CQ and it oneshots people from a decent distance away.[/QUOTE]
My one shot for the masterkey was fairly close range. Anything beyond that took all 3. Honestly it was the most useful non-optic attachment for the M4.

Don't know how you can say that. 90% of the shots are one hit kills, and the scope makes it so OP.

what the hell is disagree meant to mean
The glitches in this game is killing me.
And the story gets a bit ridiculous later on, and the AI sucks.
The multiplayer with Battle Points is its only redeeming quality.
What is wrong with Valve promoting this game? I only liked parts of the single player and parts of the multiplayer. I am so sad.
So is this game a kind of nice idea, poorly executed kind of thing?
The adverts and premise had me intrigued but as soon as I saw some developer gameplay vids it kind of put me off.
The multiplayer ideas got me excited, but the engine and execution are pretty bad.
I expect better for a supposed ''AAA" game.
Also something to note as one of the more game breaking glitches, i used battle points to summon a helicopter, the helicopter was pointing at the ground and i crashed in the first few seconds of purchasing it. Great game THQ.
What's wrong with the Unreal engine?
[QUOTE=zeldar;28720573]What's wrong with the Unreal engine?[/QUOTE]
Maybe not the engine but probably the way it was programmed?
Im not entirely sure, but there are problems, dont just rate me disagree right away until you hear peoples experiences.
Theres an unpolished feeling to it as a whole.
[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;28716208]Well, the characters were exaggerated.
Your character had zero emotion. You don't even hesitate to [sp]jump into the mass grave[/sp].
The game had nice setpieces, but acted like it had no reason to connect them.
[editline]20th March 2011[/editline]
There was also very little engagement in the story.
The only time I felt the game acknowledged me was when the NPC's needed me to do something.
Although, it was funny when [sp]your teammate says "This is like the 5th time you fallen off something and lived."[/sp][/QUOTE]
So the truth comes out.
[QUOTE=GetBent;28719423]Don't know how you can say that. 90% of the shots are one hit kills, and the scope makes it so OP.[/QUOTE]
I've never gotten a one-shot-kill with the M200 unless it was a headshot.
[QUOTE=GetBent;28702837]Anyone else love the M16? With Steady Aim there is pretty much 0 recoil, it's great.[/QUOTE]
seriously, Homefront has the same PERKS as CoD?
[QUOTE=RaxaHax;28722445]I've never gotten a one-shot-kill with the M200 unless it was a headshot.[/QUOTE]
The M200 is the bolt action right? If I hit anywhere from the chest up to the head it's usually a one shot.
[editline]21st March 2011[/editline]
[QUOTE=Penis Colada;28722457]seriously, Homefront has the same PERKS as CoD?[/QUOTE]
What else would you call a perk that reduces recoil?
[QUOTE=GetBent;28722463]The M200 is the bolt action right? If I hit anywhere from the chest up to the head it's usually a one shot.[/QUOTE]
Maybe it's a PC thing, but it breaks the rifle for me. Everytime I shoot they run away behind something.

PC thing? I play it on the PC.
Oh nevermind just checked your xbox profile.

Arms of Steel
Keep My Gun Pointed Straight
Less Recoil
The game just crashed.
Apparently viewing the server list is enough to do it.
There was a sniper marked as a Priority Threat, and so I sent a reconnaissance drone to tag him for teammates.
I literally hovered over him for 30 seconds, getting at least 200 points tagging him over and over again.
Then I ran all the way across the map, jumped next to him, and stared at him.

When i view the server list, i always get this slowdown until i actually pick a match, then it picks up back to normal speed.
Heh, ground assault drones on Cul-De-Sac. Went 36-6, best part was holding a capture point by myself with my drone while I was inside it hiding. Kept it neutral and got 3 kills per drone, was 18-2 5 minutes into the match.
Also I am pretty sure there is a bug related to health. Today I shot someone twice in the chest with the M200, no kill. Another game I shot a recon drone with my full SCAR LMG magazine, no kill. I have also had to use a ridiculous amount of bullets to kill soldiers while they 2 shot me. I dunno if its a bug or a hack or what. I am getting hit indicators, so I should be doing damage, it just....doesn't.
Would a battlefield fan enjoy the multiplayer of homefront?
I'm considering buying it when it is on a sale
What do you like about Battlefield multiplayer specifically? I find it plays more like CoD.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;28724669]What do you like about Battlefield multiplayer specifically? I find it plays more like CoD.[/QUOTE]
That I have to think about how to advance.
Well I got a 4-Star Threat level because I'd have my AT Drone move up the street before I do, taking out any Humvees and Air Recon Drones.
Dat Shit's rewardin.
[QUOTE=Atokniro;28724223]Would a battlefield fan enjoy the multiplayer of homefront?[/QUOTE]
Even the TDM plays like battlefield if you play it right, imo.
This game is so bad from what I've played. Singleplayer that is.
Audio is constantly deafening to the point of speaker crackling and all sounds basically cancel each other out into a big messy cacophony and I can't turn it down in the options, it goes back up to 100.
Can't pick up ammo from enemies, they don't drop any, and even if I complete objectives they stay on screen and on the compass.
And one unintentionally hilarious thing was at the end of the first mission. The screen went black after the mission was completed and for some reason I kept taking damage.
What this caused was a repeating meat-slapping sound and the character grunting every once in a while which made me wonder just what went on behind that screen
Pretty terrible game, was glad when it was over.
Only thing it did right was the feeling of shooting a dude in the head while looking through an acog scope, I liked that feeling.

Those glitches happen to be plaguing the illegal version, not the bought version.
And I do not see homefront on your steam account....
