I decided to level my DH last night and I feel naked without my Kridershot. Sure I could use it, but then the damage becomes a joke for level 61+ content.

Quote from Tisky

I think it drops random. My fav route for drops is to play thriller quest Rumford at Theodor gates on Torment 2. After the wretched queen is dead just go to town and restart.

What a stupid route... because I got 3 legendaries and a plan for a lvl 60 legendary set within half an hour

We've learned that getting any Blackthorne-piece is a defeat, because it's the worst legendary set at 60. Clan-chat erupts into "top lel" whenever someone gets one. Also, 2-handed weapons are still bugged and roll stats equal to 1-handed ones...

Joy of joy, people! Patch 2.0.1 landed this week, and it has changed the game a lot for the better, as I have been playing it all day every day since Wednesday. Almost all abilities tweaked, legendaries have special properties that are build-changers, new smart loot system called Loot 2.0 implemented (i.e. no more Intelligence on Barb belts, or Dex on weapons when you are Wizard, etc), paragon level cap removed, etc.

Oh and there's a 50% XP buff activated until March 24th, as in up to the release of the expansion Reaper of Souls. Here's a blogpost about it, PLUS a video that explains the changes to the game : http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/128…e-only-3-3-2014

I am actually having fun playing it now, my Demon Hunter doesn't get oneshot of every mob any longer on highest difficulty, something that made me stop playing this, and with the implementation of clans and communities, the chat is buzzing. I am kind of looking forward to the expansion now, as this patch has really done the game good.

Yeah I played through this last night, and here's my verdict: It's pretty awful.

2.5 hours long, entire levels being QTE's and the game gives you a perk right off the bat that makes QTEs not fail ever, weapon-selection is unnecessary as you are locked to what Rambo used it the movies in that setting (you can unlock more but the requirements are stupid), enemies in the later stages come in such quantities I do not believe you can finish this with a gamepad, spending skillpoints on upgrades other than damage resistance is not needed as all enemies die of one headshot plus all weapons are pinpoint accurate, and they want at least 30 euros for this.

The only plus is that the game is using the original voices directly from the movies, but it feels out of place with the bad sound quality, plus the quality of it shifts between good and bad, even in the same cutscenes.

Got this for 22 britbucks on GMG, looks neat and hope it will run well on my borderline ancient battlestation.

Team Scramble when?

After 5 hours of Attrition, I can say that this game is a lot of fun! Fast-paced, very smooth parkour, battles feels much more crowded than 6v6, no hitreg issues (I play BF4 so I suffer), lots of "FUCK YEAH!" moments as you stomp enemies, punch enemies, and grab pilots out of their titans and toss them away like rags. I might buy this!

The auto-aim pistol can go piss on itself though.

I hope the release version will have more weapons.

also I like that because the mechs are so big sometimes you will have this shuffle match with friendly mechs trying to walk down a road.

There are more weapons but it would be nice to know HOW many more there are, as some of the Burn Cards give away that there is a bolt action sniper, LMG, and anti-titan grenade launcher, just the amped versions. Would also like to know the amount of ranks and challenges available, but I sort of hope you don't level as fast as you do in the beta, as you get to level 14 (beta limit) really fast.

Glad people are giving it a try. Its great to get feedback, good or bad.

If anyone is having problems getting a code, PM me and Ill see what I can do. It might be a slower reply because of the weekend.

Or you can go to EA Live Chat support and ask nicely, and you get access. Like I just did. Downloading now!

>tfw no key

this is looking grim when I want to try before buy

They're in cahoots with the great evil EA! It's the only answer!

Still twiddling my thumbs, aint getting a key ever

I was thinking of getting Dungeon Keeper 1 after the free2play complete utter ultimate disaster in human history Dungeon Keeper edition, but glad I waited (cheapskate detected). Think I'll grab DK2 as well on GOG as it's $1.49 right now.

I've played this a bit, and only cleared it once using the starting character. The only other character I've made it to the last boss with was the Engineer, as the other characters feel so meh on their own, but I think they do much better in co-op which I have yet to try.

Looks like Second Assault is out very soon on PC and PS4 as Second Assault dogtags were just now handed out to Premium users.

I think he was confirmed as a cheater.

Zyn, I believe there will be a separate blogg entry for nades later. Also http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/news/view/bf4-mantle-live/

I hope there is, would love some tweaks on gadgets too, mostly how launchers do versus armor, as right now it feels like any armored vehicle is able to soak tons of damage/rockets.

Also the new patch didn't just enable Mantle : http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/thre…50493815503479/

Currently the situation on every server is like this : PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH PSH and more PSH

So, a bunch of tweaks is coming with the next big patch:

Vehicles: http://blogs.battlefield.com/2014/01/bf4-balancing-vehicles/

Weapons: http://blogs.battlefield.com/2014/01/balancing-bf4-weapons/

Pistols: http://blogs.battlefield.com/2014/01/balancing-bf4-pistols/

Might be more posted soon (gadgets, map tweaks, I dunno), so this is what we got for now. So the Mobile AA gets nerfed due to all the whine, Scout Chopper too but can probably still be repaired mid-air and be invincible. Right now, if a Scout Chopper have two repairasites, you just can't bring it down, even with a full salvo and rockets from the Mobile AA. Meanwhile the Attack Chopper is a flying coffin due to no Below The Radar perk. Tanks getting the STAFF shell nerfed won't fix much if you do not fix the issue of tanks being able to fire two projectiles in a quick succession. Currently you can switch to STAFF shell,fire, and switch quickly to the primary cannon and fire again within a second, making it a devastating combo against any vehicle.

DMR's being buffed is something that is needed as they perform terribly right now, shotgun accuracy being buffed is good for better CQC perfomance and hopefully also fixes the "firing blanks" issue on for example the UTS 15 (I've fired 5-6 shots into someone at point blank and had none of the shots registered). Pistols getting a buff is a welcomed change as it affects the least used pistols the most, as they perform nowhere near the others right now.

Still don't understand the reasoning for not bringing the rate of fire on the G36C up to it's real 750 RPM (currently 650, had proper RPM in BF3), other than "No we won't", which would help making it less terrible, as right now it's at the bottom of the barrel. You can still get quite a few kills with it, but you have to rely on the opponent being a bad shot or getting the drop on him.

I still want to see tweaks done to throwables, as the V40 MINI handgrenade clearly don't have the intended reduced splash radius, making it the best choice. Smoke needs to last a bit longer, also prevent spotting through it as intended. Flashbangs are currently just Flash, doesn't blind you for longer than a blink of an eye nor does it deafen you. M34 Incendiary should last 1-2 seconds longer and also kill anyone who stays in it's burning radius, as right now you can throw it at your feet and take all the damage and still be fine.

Got lots of dosh to spare? Want a statue that is 45cm tall? Well then: http://www.amazon.com/Titanfall-Coll…words=Titanfall

Looks like Assassin's Creed with additions.

Soooo, a pretty Mount & Blade huh...
