It feels good to be back.

Just unboxed this:

My first StatTrak weapon. It's a shame I don't use AWP. Might start using it though!

Been playing the Operation Bravo maps and they're a lot of fun. Good work to those involved!

That video just above kinda reignited my CS love. Like seeing and old crush again for the first time in years.

I convinced my friend to come along and join me two nights ago to play CSGO. Neither of us liked CSGO last time we played it but we thought we'd give it a try. We both sucked but stuck at it and kind of enjoyed it. Played again last night and we started coming the top of the team and popping heads with some awesome deagle shots.

I've just come off CSGO after an 8 hour straight binge. My hand hurts but god damn it was good.

Counter-Strike... I'm glad to have you back in my life!

Quote from LATTEH

i hope we get to control Goliath in multiplayer!

We do. It's 4 human controlled humans vs 1 human controlled monster.

Congrats on the inclusions guys! Some damn good skins in here!

I have a few questions for you guys. A friend of mine is looking to make some skins for CSGO and he's unsure of some things.

1) When he uploads a skin to the workshop he's assuming people can just download and use his skin? If so, does it just appear in their inventory and can they then just equip it? Will other people who have also downloaded the skin see it too? Or does the skin replace another skin the game?

2) What happens if a skin on the workshop is chosen to be included in the game? Does everyone who has downloaded the skin from the workshop have it removed from their game and will have to earn the skin then?

I'm a little confused about the whole process myself to be honest so it'd be interesting to find out how all this works.

Thanks guys!

Bit more information:

They’ll need to dodge, seeing as ‘Goliath’, the first revealed alien, will grow to 30-feet tall in its final evolution. It’s been called a hybrid of ape, snake and xenomorph. At first it can punch humans and climb walls, but will get to choose two new skills at evolution level one, then one more with each level gained.

Examples noted include throwing rocks, leaping large distances and breathing fire. It should be noted however that hunters will also fight against the map’s wildlife, which can also be as tall as the Goliath itself. Once the Goliath eats enough wildlife it starts to evolve in a cocoon state, which leaves it vulnerable for a short while. The beast can move stealthily or as standard, leaving destruction and huge footprints in its wake. It’ll be hard to miss once fully evolved.

Agree with everything Nerve said.

I know some people can take honest/constructive feedback badly though. I guess if they reply asking for some then they can take honest feedback?

Is this the technology you use for the environment scanning?

How is it? Does it require much cleaning up afterwards etc?

Also, it's nice to finally see that Corner Shot getting used in a video game! Surprised it took this long to make it into one!

Oh man this sounds like it could be fun. I love playing as the infected in L4D and if this monster/alien is bigger and badder than the infected in L4D and can cause a load of havoc it's gonna be awesome

Titanfall maximum player count is 6v6

Quote

Respawn Entertainment has confirmed a maximum of 12 players can play multiplayer shooter Titanfall at once.

"6v6 is max player count," Respawn chief Vince Zampella tweeted last night. "Turned out to be the best balance with AI for us."

Titanfall's maps include numerous AI-powered characters who work alongside and against players. There are also mechs that can be piloted, or used as computer-controlled sidekicks in follow or guard mode.

Zampella followed that tweet with another: "It is incredibly fun, we did a lot if testing. It is all about what we found most fun."

Then: "A 6v6 game can be a crazy experience, very fun." And: "We had it higher at points in testing, this felt best."

A little lower than I expected but then I thought that's potentially 12 titans in one map which would be crazy.

I wonder if the monster is player controlled?

Anyway, more coop action from Turtle Rock means I'm excited!

Looks pretty sick!

Few of the Titans have been revealed. Looking good!

Yeah in the mod if you fired your gun or were in close proximity to another player you would have to wait to log out. I guess stuff like that will come in the future but right now it's really annoying.

Polygon's take on it:

So they changed the spawning locations in the game so you don't start too near the good loot.

I don't think many people like this spawn location:

Me and a friend had a couple of guys stalking us through Elektro earlier tonight. We led them out of the city on the East side and they kept following us but we kept evading them. Eventually we lay in some bushes and waited for them to pass. I shot one in the back, he dropped and I shot him again to make sure he was dead. My friend shot at the other guy but missed and that guy logged out (Very lame).

Anyway I looted the guy I killed, got lots of food and ammo. As my friend was going to look at the left over the guy that had combat logged a couple of minutes ago was now to our East and shot my friend. He managed to survive and we retreated.

Combat logging is so lame, especially when player server hop to gain an advantage. That guy knew we'd be looting that corpse so he loaded up a different server, moved his character to a better location and then shot at us when we didn't know where he was. It really annoys me.

What's the point of playing the game if you're going to alt+F4 everytime someone shoots at you. Sure you might lose your stuff but for me most of the fun is starting from nothing and getting geared up again. The server hopping annoys me the most. It's so unfair that players can effectively relocate to gain an advantage without us knowing. There's not much they can do about this at the moment though.

Still enjoying it. So many tense moments!

Yeah I find it crazy how a producer doesn't know what state his game is in. I understand he's on holiday and stuff but all of the complaints and problems have been spoken about VERY loudly. I find it hard to believe he had no idea.

And wow, Sprony, that response from EA support is pretty horrible.

I am worried for Titanfall now. I'm hoping they don't ruin that too...

Started watching The Tudors and I'm really enjoying it.

Dat Anne Boleyn.

I don't find water a problem anymore. I don't even carry canteens with me. Basically if you use the wells in towns as you move between them you shouldn't ever get thirsty Use them until your guy says "I feel really full" or whatever.

Me and a friend blowing up a petrol station outside Cherno (I'm the guy on the left). Hit the pumps enough times and they'll blow. They can be heard from the other side of the city which should scare a few of the newer players
