    Don't normally use the RC car so I never noticed this on Nuketown.

    Some of the other maps have RCXD paths like that too. At first I thought they were for crawling through, but you can't.

    Press LB to boost, it's onscreen when you have an RC-XD online. The test is kind of small and white and hard to read though. It's a lot like half of the people in MW2 didn't realize AC-130s have multiple weapons.

    It's there for Valkyrie rockets too, but you have to hold LB.

    Yay for inconsistent controls!

    translating this to ps3 controls I assume L1? And in general the ADS button?

    That's interesting. I never knew it had that. Too bad I only use the car in non-objective modes anymore and mostly just for the hell of it and to make people spectating in our house laugh when they see me do it.

    Heh, I think I got shot a few times when the game came out trying to crawl into air ducts or through holes in fences.

    The tactical grenade button, which I hope is L2 on the PS3. Hopefully we've moved past the bad port times and L1/R1 is aim/shoot on the PS3.

    Hey - what's the best way to team up with you guys? I was thinking of doing the clan tag, but I get the impression that that doesn't work so hot. Mainly, I wouldn't mind teaming up with some not-shitheads, but I wasn't sure who the best usernames to send invites to were, and I feel like a jackass just spamming them out.

    Ok yeah that's right I remember my friend asking me why the controls where reversed from him playing on 360. L/R1 are aim/shoot and the 2s are grenades

    There are a few regulars you need to send invites to, and then just jump into a game. If you make us go into ground war, we'll try to not be too mad.

    The clan tag doesn't actually do anything other than put letters in front of your name.

    Any/every jackass can wear a PA tag, and there is no clan functionality in the game.

    So, the real question is, what do you play on?

    I remember too many bad ports earlier in the PS3's life where aim and shoot were on L2/R2, and it was really hard to keep aiming with how slick those two triggers are. Now most devs have figured out that L2 and R2 are far better for quick actions, like reloading or throwing grenades

    I've been playing a little of the single-player but the multi-player has me hooked. I see we have some PA servers but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to join them specifically, any toss me a bone?

    as far as I know they haven't yet added in join-by-IP functionality, so you'll have to look them up in the browser and then add them to favourites from there.

    He meant the PA MW2 CLAN, I believe. Also, if you're on X360, send Mercy XXVI a FR with a message letting me know you're from PA. In fact, Jaunty, just put that in the OP. I pretty much only play BlOps, and I have plenty of room on my friend's list.

    Also, my Emblem (looks so good on my MPL, yes it does):

    Anyone else have weird bugs with emblem stamping? My emblem is flipped on the FAL (which is distracting as hell when there is a number in it) and on my left HS10 it's got a heavily magnified section of the top of the emblem on it.

    Yeah, I noticed that you had two bars (one, at certain points) in that game, and promptly felt bad. :(


    Also, Caedere, did you watch the video Holi posted at all?

    The thing is, on Den's forums, there's a video posted showing the exact opposite. Random recoil is random.

    The man's taken the game code apart, and there is no difference between the two.

    Messed around today with trying to make iconic images in the emblem editor: started off with the Captain America shield, and moved on to the Obama symbol. It needs some work, but I'm pretty happy with the final product. I added in the blackbird because it's awesome. And, I dunno, probably symbolic.

    that was the thing that killed me on BFBC2, without hacking around in non-human-readable ini files, by default the helicopters and the RC helicopter are inverted from one another.

    My guess is probably not, unless you're on PC, then you can probably do some voodoo in the game's configuration files.

    Whiskey Tango controller mods* all up ins:

    2010-11-17202911.jpg

    2010-11-17202959.jpg

    explanation:
    I was tired of getting shot running out of batteries and I think buying the proprietary batteries is dumb, so instead I did an even dumber thing and taped two battery packs together to be all tacticool and to fit with the dualmags attachment from ingame.

    the 3rd picture is the interface for my turtlebeach x11's, I was sick of having to reach for the mixer box and usually accidentally maxing the game mix and hurting my brain, so i hacked off the end of the superior (but broken) gen 1 xbox 360 headset, connected then heatshrank a surfacemount 2.5mm headset jack from the gen 1 xbox communicator I had lying around. Works great, though I really should have done a better job with the heatshrinking and the soldering.

    *Controller mods done intentionally ironically.
