Supply drops, man, supply drops. Drop a rocket launcher and the battle dress, you'd have been great.
I've also been playing MGSV like a psychotic freak, though I've stuck to my original save. I've redone some missions for more stuff, like some S ranks and specialists, but mostly side objectives. F*ck the R&D target practice op, though. I had to use a YouTube video to finish it as my final side op, it was annoying.
Flawless Display (defeat Shiva without getting any Damage)
I am the Night (beat I am the Night)
Point Counter-Point (beat death Stroke without taking any damage)
One of Each (use each free flow gadget in one combo)
Come Out of the Cold (Perform 3 ice wall takedowns)
Bruce's Revenge (complete all original 72 campaign Medals as Bruce Wayne)
Campaign Ninja ( complete all Campaigns as Bruce Wayne)
As it stands now I plan on going after Come out from the Cold Bruce's revenge and One of each next. Point Counter Point and Campaign Ninja would be next and finally I am the night (keep dying at Copperhead)
but I guess I am a sucker for punishment lol
I STILL have to beat the game to use the skins! To hell with that! Technically I did beat it once but that was before my PS3 died and had to be replaced.
Arkham City had a push button code you cold use. Oh well, at least I got Cold Cold Heart :/
For the record I do like Arkham Origins but not getting to use the skins you pay for is BS
its is expansive beautiful and allows you to be well batman.
if I had to rank them
Origins
City
Asylum
Knight
To be fair I haven't played Knight well I have played a small portion of it but I have seen most of the story on youtube... and BY GOD I'm genuinely Amazed at how crappy the story is. I mean it's kind of amazing.
There's a few modes/maps you can experience on the beta. First is a single-player/co-op Survival map on Tatooine where you face six waves of enemies (nothing difficult), that gets you familiar with the controls. There's also two multiplayer modes on offer: one an 8 vs. 8 game that's basically a capture the flag objective where you and your team secure and protect pods that've launched onto the planet (it's one of the new planets from episode 7, I believe), and a massive 20 vs. 20 battle mode that takes place on Hoth where you either have to secure command points as rebels and destroy AT-ATs, or protect the AT-ATs and shut down the rebel command points as imperial soldiers. While I thought the map for the Hoth battle was a bit too massive at times, making you retrace your steps often, it is quite a thrill to be part of a massive battle with 39 other players. Although, at a higher level you can unlock a jet pack to get around much faster, so there's that. Where the Hoth map is concerned, it's more fun to be an imperial, as you can control the AT-AT for a while and rain down fire upon the masses, and the map also gives you the rare opportunity to play as Luke on the rebels side or Vader on the imperial side, though I never got to. It's quite a thrill to see Vader flying over your head, landing in front of you and force choking the life from you in seconds. While I always got the feeling that the battles were stacked in favor of the imperials (I don't recall winning once as a rebel), I still enjoyed myself even when stuck playing as a rebel.
Overall, the gameplay was fluid and fun, made the FPS format mesh beautifully with Star Wars, and offered a huge amount of fan service I'm sure super fans were overjoyed with. The battles feel massive, thrilling and dangerous, guns and power-ups feel like they truly matter and determine the outcomes of the conflict, and the Star Wars trademarks are all there, soundtrack, sound design and more.
This would be the equivalent of a Bond game that would let you fight in highly detailed recreations of the movie settings (Dr. No's lab, Fort Knox base, Largo's estate, Piz Gloria, etc.) as either an MI-6 agent or SPECTRE operative, where the location of the battle determines what music you'll hear. If you're fighting on a map from a specific film, you are hearing the iconic music from that movie, and at times, the game could give you the option of playing as villains like Jaws or Tee-Hee depending on the circumstance. Imagine storming Piz Gloria as spies to take on SPECTRE enemies (with Barry booming in the background), or battling inside Stromberg's Atlantis all in next-gen wonder.
Anyway, this beta ends today, the 13th, so anyone who wants to give it a quick try should. It's a long install, even on the PS4, but well worth it. From what I've seen, it's looking good and I hope EA doesn't change too much before it launches in November.
As many know I am not a huge gamer and I don't have the money to buy and Xbox one so batman arkham knight will have to be a wait and maybe play next month (when I get it and an Xbox one for my birthday or Christmas maybe...) anyways achievement hunting again and primarily focusing on the following games
007 legends (as I have a ton of single player achievements and mi6 ops to beat and do)
Goldeneye Reloaded (working primarily on the mi6 ops eventually I will work on the last few single player missions)
Splinter Cell black list (the various side missions I need to finish up)
And finally
Doom and doom 2 (need to beat both in ultra violence and kill a cyber demon in doom 2 with my fists)
I figure the above will give me enough to do and enjoy till I get Xbox one then I will play and beat arkham knight (which based on everything I have seen feels like the 007 legends of the batman franchise but will do a full review once I played it)
And then who knows shame that both Bond and Splinter Cell seem to be stuck in second gear right now but who knows we could have a spy game explosion soon.
As for me, I've been sinking a whole lot of time into 'Fallout 4' lately. It's like 'Fallout 3,' only much, much better, more beautiful, and with lots more to do.
Enjoy the CyberDemon.
I played Doom 3 for a few minutes a little while ago. I don't play it for very long anymore, seeing as I've beaten it on Xbox and PS3. I'm working my way through the PC version mostly just to say I've beaten it.
It allows a game to be interesting again and like I said my batman arkham origin is achievement hunting made the game quite fun in the fall and give me a good batman fix I figure I am in the mood for spy and espionage so why not have some fun achievement hunting on 007 legends Goldeneye and Splinter cell blacklist. As for doom and doom 2 shrugs I always loved those games.
That's all I've been playing over Thanksgiving Break so far.
It looks incredible, and plays the same- but there's tons of new stuff too, that could potentially have you pulling your hair out (for example the Sims style building of Sanctuary took some getting used to)
@Creasy47, I've got one trophy left to get on the main game, which is to beat it on New Game +, which I'll get around to whenever I decide to replay the story again.
As for me, I've been getting into Assassin's Creed: Syndicate recently.
The thing I'm looking forward to the most and have been waiting forever for is Oculus Rift! Are you guys going to be getting a rift or SteamVR or morpheus for PS4?
Don't get me started on how bloody fantastic and entertaining those early 'Splinter Cell' titles were.
Though I will say, I did enjoy Blacklist. I look on Blacklist as the OHMSS of the SC series. It's still Fisher, just not Michael Ironside as Fisher. I never got to play Conviction, though, that wasn't ported to the PS3. I will probably pick up a 360 at some point, to see the exclusives that the console had.
The 360 had a LOT of fantastic exclusives, especially 'Alan Wake' (from what I know about you, I think you'd love it) and the 'Left 4 Dead' series.
The issue is and this is just my opinion they had no idea why Goldeneye Reloaded was a hit so the smashed this together. The reason it was a hit was it gave us a compelling story a sence of nostalgia and Craig in a new Bond Adventure (it was also marketed way better then Bloodstone) if the writers/developers just took one classic film and released say Daniel Craig in Ian Fleming's Goldfinger and took time and energy to update the story for the Craig era as they did for Goldeneye (and got Craig Fiennes and Harris to reprise their roles) activision could of been on a winning formula. Ok well winning formula is a loose term we all would of complained and been annoyed but it would of sold a heck of a lot better and gamers and casual Bond fans would of eagerly spent top dollar. But still no Craig voice smashing films together with no cohesive plot sigh activision what were you smoking.
On a sidenote, I recently got a new TV as well because my old one died (it was probably a decade old) so I am just amazed at how nice the PS4 + new TV look together. :x
Not sure what other games I'm going to pick up. It's sad, I don't play that many videogames even though I love them. I really should fix that.
