Triumphant return to the internet.

The new Video card did help but I'm only getting between 25-40 FPS, I'm guessing that it could be I'm only running 2Gb of Memory (1066). The over all play is fine and if I can find a server with a low ping then I see no lag at all.

I have an AMD 3.2Gb dual core processor, ATI 5850 vid card, 2Gb OCZ Platinum 1066 Dual channel memory and a 960 watt PS to boot.

But I agree Tron, this game is fun. The more I play the better it gets, and the building destruction is way too cool.

Destruction 2.0 Engine is super fun.

They had awesome building destruction in Red Faction.... all those years ago.

Did they build on any of the squad-based or team mechanics of the game? Does it feel like a CoD rip off with vehicles? These are the things that I would like to know.

The gameplay is nothing like CoD. Except in hardcore mode (which is a server setting), you cannot kill in one shot except with a headshot, even with sniper rifles. The guns have a lot of recoil, so you have to burst fire to be accurate. Bullets travel more realistically than CoD; that is, you have to lead your target if they're far away and aim high with the sniper rifle to compensate for the bullet dropping depending on distance.

All I really play is the new Rush game mode, where one team defends the other team from blowing up two buildings. Once those buildings are blown, the defending team has to fall back to two more buildings, and this series must happen once more for the attacking team to win. The defending team wins if the timer for the attacking team runs out. This game mode is really fun and feels like you're in the middle of a warzone.

I've got Comcast here too Dex. Paying $80/mo for the Digital Cable and High Speed bundle. Get about 20 Down and 10 Up for $40/mo., which is compensated by my employer anyways. I love working from home.

I just moved into my 3 Br apartment a few weeks ago so I'm hoping to find a place for my rig soon. Not much personal space with a 2 year old running around.

How do you move into YOUR 3 BR apartment and have a 2 year old running around? You got a kid you never mentioned? You living with a chick who has a trophy? YAY FIRST PLACE AT FUCK CAMP! ... is it your sister? If so, she hot?

ROFL Dex asks the questions inquiring minds want to know

Was it at least the chick with the great rack?

Ha no I'm not with Steff anymore, thank god. Yeah my girlfriend has a little boy. Pretty much his dad, minus the whole dna thing.

Yeah I'm renting a small 3BR apartment for like $900/mo right now. Pretty nice, our roomate is a lazy slob though. About to give her the boot if she doesnt shape up. Other than that I've been playing Borderlands quite bit lately. Got my girlfriend and a friend of mine into it aorund christmas time. Fun for a small gorup of people to play, but kind of annoying in any other scneario.

A fuck trophy is very good and a good sign, too. You have a ready-made family, just insert yourself (in more than one way). Also, you know that she gets down. Most bitches do these day, but ya know, it's nice to have that reassurance. I'd hate for you to be with some chick who wasn't willing to give up the love.

As far as the kid goes. Unless you childproof your house... don't expect anything to be unbroke. When that little bastard shoves a fucking cookie into the back of your power supply you will not be happy. Get a rule, an old one. One of those thick and wooden ones. A couple dozen slaps on the hand will curb that shit. Not that I've ever raised kids, but I've got siblings, cousins and dealt with plenty of toddlers.

I'd also boot the roommate. When that lazy slob leaves something out that the kid eats... yeah... bad news, bro.

All that aside, nice to see you again Proph. All my little boys are growed up.

Yea touch him once with that wooden rule and dyfs will be on your ass.

I got investigated a couple of years ago for correcting my teen.
