Did you change the fireteam settings from friends only to open to all? I did that as well and worked a treat.

Was in various places during the Russian mission as a few dropped out. Was around the panic room bit mainly.

Not sure, we was around the end at the boss fight basically, and i'm not sure what the settings were? How ever i started it from matchmaking and it was all randoms so it should of been open to all.

Oh well, see what happens last time.

Did the Lincoln tunnel about 5 times yesterday. Big difference from a week ago where it took us over an hour to do, compared to the 15 minute runs we were putting together this time.

Can anyone point my in the direction of where's cheapest to get this and the season pass from, please?

What platform?

The Gold Edition has the game + season pass, but console editions were only sold by Amazon in the UK. Either Amazon have now sold out, or they were only selling The Gold Edition on pre-order.

Best bet now is shopto for £39.99 and then buying the season pass through PSN which is £32.99.
 
whats the best way of getting these high end items lads? Level 30 so just finishing off getting 100% on my base and doing the daily hard missions.

Daily Challenge mode missions, if you have decent gear and a decent group you can run through the easier ones multiple times in a short period. You will also get 30(?) Phoenix Credits, and a high end item each time you complete and then few credits on the named boss.

Other options are farming the named boss'es in the DZ and PvE areas. Named bosses have a rare chance of dropping gold, but they will also drop credits.

Once you have enough PE credits then you can buy High End items and Blueprints from the special gear vendor in your BOO. To craft items, you will again need to farm the DZ for division tech to create parts to use to craft your items.

TLDR: Find a group and do challenge mode missions.

thanks. My gear is pretty crap at the mo so i need to farm up some decent epics before i am ready for the challenge mode.
 
Stupid question but, im making my mate buy this and ive given him the deal of if he doesnt like it ill buy it off him and give it to my brother, am i right in thinking theres no DRM to stop pre owned copies being played online?
 
Hal9000 said:
Not sure if so true on challenge mode missions? Tried... but kept getting 'no matchmaking in no respawn zone' With normal and hard, if you're down and die for x time you can respawn at the checkpoint. Challenge missions, once your dead your a dead till you're revived or the whole team dies. Also in normal/hard the checkpoint does not reset if you all die, it picks up where you left off i think. Where was challenge it resets back to the first wave.

You just walk out of the no respawn zone.

That's the thing, on Russian Consulate, every time you enter a mission it says 'no respawn' and trust me i was walking all the way back to the start to see if i could get match making going.

PC or Console? Console there is no DRM. The Season Pass is one use though, For PC... I'm guessing there is CD keys and such?

It's likely having fireteam set to friends only that was the issue, as @Damien said.

And the Mexican guy was a good dude, Damo. He must've thanked me at least five times for giving him his stuff back and for helping him out.

Yeah he was very nice. Was funny when we ended up in zone 6 without knowing and basically all the level 32 enemies surrounded us.
 
My Vector 45 ACP

CdwpznoWoAE7xjh.jpg:orig

Talent: Vicious - Critical hit chance is increased by 13% while at full health.
Talent: Stable - Stability is improved by 46%
Talent: Responsive - Damage is increased by 13% when closer than 10 meters to the target

Magazine: Extended Magazine (High-End)
- +97.5% Magazine size
- +25.5% Rate of Fire

Large Optics: Improved Iron sights (Specialised)
- +14.5% Headshot Damage
- +4.5% Critical Hit Chance

Large Muzzle: Flash hider (Specialised)
- +12% Accuracy
- +19% Critical Hit Damage

Large Underbarrel: PEQ-15 Laser - Red (Specialised)
- +15% Hip Fire Accuracy
- +9.5% Accuracy

Need to improve my firearm rating as it is low compared to others. Seen Vectors with 10k DMG, 8k is on the low side.

Goddamn you guys are good.
 
Zarlak said:
My Vector is at 104k dps but I don't have the specialised mag yet, I'll be buying that after this Lexi run. I crafted a second Vector to try and get better rolls but no luck.
Click to expand...
What rolls does your vector have? I'm fairly happy with mine and at the moment think I'll be saving up to buy other mod blueprints. The Phoenix vendor next to the Recalibration unit changes stock at some point, right?

Recommend getting the Vector 45 ACP blueprint if you haven't got it. Just get to level 30 and do the event centre mission a few times to get the 180ish credits needed for it.

8830 damage, 969 RPM 37 mag. +21% crit chance, 106,695 dps.

Talents:

Determined - Killing a target reduces skill cooldowns by 8.50% Inactive
Commanding - Every kill performed while the signature skill is active extends its duration by 18.50% Inactive
Fierce: Critical hit chance is increased by 8% while using this weapon Active
 
Also it's starting to piss me off false reporting on the parts. There's an extended mag I can buy from the DZ vendor that apparantly takes my DPS from 106,695 to 132,757. Great, right? It has +75% magazine size and +17% reload speed. Only my current magazine has +88% magazine size and 29.20% rate of fire. There's no way that this mag will boost my DPS let alone by that much. A few times before I've bought mods that will apparently boost my DPS only to see it fall when I equip it.
 
My only inactive one is Vicious at the moment. Just need around 60 more firearms.

Think your talents could be pretty useful when the top two are active.

Annoys me too. Hope there'll be some sort of fix.

I am at level 14 Damien....level 30 seems a hell of a ways away.
I have the basics down now tho...deconstruct everything and do all the side missions and encounters.

Yeah, deconstruct stuff you don't need. You'll be thankful when you hit 30. By the time you hit 30 the Vector blueprint will have probably gone as reset is only a day or so away but I'm sure it'll be back.

Just take the time to enjoy stuff, no need to rush

Reload is factored into the DPS calculation. Accuracy, also. However, the way that's factored in is kinda weird, as it does some sort of calculation to determine the average accuracy of a player....or something. Essentially, the DPS stat is misleading and isn't an accurate representation of effective DPS, which is what really counts.

There was a video posted just before release day that explained it.

Yeah, but there's still an issue in that the game says 'this will boost your DPS' and then you equip it and it drops.

Surprised by the rating thought it would at least match destiny, it does have some good points about the sheer nothingness to do most of the time. also im disappointed they don't have real players walking past each other on screen outside the DZ.

They gave Battlefront 8/10 so yeah. Don't put too much faith in it. Most IGN's in other countries gave it 8/10+. This game isn't CoD enough for the reviewer. More retarded talk of bullet sponges from someone who doesn't seem to understand what RPG's are. His main criticisms are that you can't go from mission to mission immediately without doing some side stuff first. I mean, come on. Also long load times when fast travelling? Do you even SSD?

He has a good point about how bullshit the balance is in the dark zone and how nobody will go rogue at the moment but Massive have already announced they're looking into it.

They also gave MGSV a 10/10. :lol:

It varies hugely, mate. We ran DZ last for a couple of hours last night and the only engagement we had was an accidental rogue incident when fighting NPCs. We barely saw other players, in fact. Sometimes you just get a good session.

I run solo in the DZ a fair bit and find the NPCs to be more of a danger than the players, more often than not.

Perhaps, the past couple of times I've just been raped constantly so fecked it off for a bit.

At higher DZ levels nobody ever goes rogue. They just PVE together. If you die as a rogue there you lose like 5 levels.

I need to find some of these people before they change it then.
 
So these gun talents?
Are they a random when you pick up a gun, or do you attach talents to them?
Also what are pheonix credits?
:lol: i'm sure that game doesn't bother to explain anything to you

EDIT: Also, your gear, the bottom selection has some mods, but I don't understand where or what they attach to?
