I love this game, but the lag is enough to keep me away.

WildArmed5014d ago

While the lag is not the issue for me.
It's their crappy servers that keep randomly take away my VIP status.
I've had that happened two times!
And I contacted EA to get it back.
And they did..
and YAY.. I have to fuking put up with the lame customer support AGAIN!

I really hate how they implemented this shitty VIP status.
THey should have just had a VIP key that you download from PStore..
instead of this stupid VIP key that you put in @ EA servers.

Seems like since they added MoH Beta into the mix things have gotten worse. Hell, I can't even play that beta because generally I'll manage to come out alive in a firefight only to start to run away and apparently get shot through the walls. Or I'll get knifed by a guy that isn't even around the corner yet.

BC2 isn't nearly as bad only because it's so much bigger so it's slightly less noticeable.

samich20075014d ago

And did you lose your VIP status? I did... :(

jromao5014d ago

Let's see what they will do about it.

secksi-killer5014d ago

but yeah lag and latency are in the game. more so latency. and the knife ????? jesus, its now pretty useless! most times, i stab someone, i see the blood fly, but they are still standing. so it's either stab them again or they turn and kill me..

i love battlefield, but the last patch has ruined things.

Omar915014d ago

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil3d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing692d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle2d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa2d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
