Dobule xp wtf

[CraazyCanuck]

Never encountered lag like I did this weekend defending Howling Pass against that TR push Sunday afternoon on Matherson. But I think it may have been more the numbers involved then the patch itself for me but can't say for certain. Even though it was laggy, it settled down after we pushed them back to the Upper cliffs toward Crimson.

May have been the largest battle I have experienced to date and it was an excellent back and forth there for a while and the hill/cliff fighting was fierce.

I missed out cause my router crapped out on Friday.

The announcement was also on the Official Forums and even via a Mass e-mail to PS2 players.

I made over 1 milion EXP this weekend but it was hard due to all the bugs and huge stutter.

I hope they throw in another one when they actually FIX the game.

I prefer to look at things like number of facilities captured/defended, or Vehicles destroyed. Or number of kills with specific weapons (over 2K now with dual Falcons ).

Nothing is perfect - but its fair that the Devs try to make subjective measure that takes into account and weighs your achievements in the various avenues the game affords.

What do you have to aim for once you have reached BR100 and have certed everything that you want?

It's not aiming for anything. I would rather have everything open from the start and still hang around the game for years, if the game is good. I played cs for seven years back in the days and that game has nothing to aim at. Even now I can go back and enjoy it although there are a lot of hackers. So my interest is in playing a good game and having fun. Ranking up is just the necessary evil that this new generation of games has, for me at least.

Last night I was getting 42,000 points per hour defending a Biolab. VS already had the continent won, they just really really really, really wanted to take every last territory on Esamir again. Ended up with 236 certs gained in 1 hour and 14 minutes according to the TAB page when they finally took it. Thanks VS!

I'd like to enjoy my double xp without having to deal with nonfunctional medi-kits. The medkit is my preferred utility item when playing heavy. -.-

yeah this^

it's nice to have medics around, but theyr not always reliable, so med kits are my bread n butter. frustrating weekend to say the least.

Wow.

Ok we have all established OP must have no eyes or internet connection to not hear about this.

Double XP weekend, guess what, I like them, means I get more XP and I like more XP.

Means more people come on, need lots of people to make the game seem fuller for MLG. Just logic, you want to have a good product on show.

Stability issues etc. Unfortunate and annoying, however...

Like any of you evne know what's wrong, some people seem to act as if it's really easy and easily avoided when in fact there is enough code in there to build a house if you printed it all off.

You have a right to be annoyed, you even have the right to rant but some people are just plain rude, they act like they have been seriously wronged.

Sorry SOE can't make a game that runs on 50 fps on a hamster wheel, or help the fact that sometimes fixes break other things. Sometimes you have to be patient. Some people are so dismissive over a modern marvel in the computer game world. Brand new engine, Larger scale, consistent, multiplayer battles that have never been seen before with so many players.

AND ITS F ING FREE SO WHINE IN A LESS ANNOYING, SELF ENTITLED MANNER. So it has some bugs? I've played worse! ATM yes, even I feel discouraged from playing because I know my FPS isn't ideal and I don't get many kills when its like 10 fps but at the same time I know theres a guy in an office, on the other side of the world, working his little butt off. He's in there working long hours, and weekends and browsing forums and he comes to all the flames people leave out, AS IF THEY COULD DO BETTER!

If you really can do better hey go apply for SOE and fix the game by all means. Until then let's all be constructive and try not to rage too much, we are all guilty of it, we are all human but just remember that it's nice to be civil. If you need info ask instead of asking sarcasticly etc. It's not hard, it's just being nice.

Poor devs got to come around to so much negativity, I'm suprised they want to even bother fixing it! We are allowed to be constructively critical. There is a line between that and being rude.

They should ALWAYS release new updates/hot-fix, etc. and, when its major bugs are fixed, do the double-exp event. Not the best deal to just throw new updates and immediately run an event like this one.

Correct and not update on weekends either, use the beginning of the week to update, that gives a few days to hotfix the inevitable bugs.
