Honestly, I still haven't made my console choice. I go back and forth everyday on which console is right for me. Of course both consoles would be ideal, but it's not really possible for me. At the moment I am leaning towards an Xbox One. I like the feel of it over the PS4, and it's got Titanfall and Halo. Yet I still don't know if those franchises are worth $100 and less power.

I just wish 343 would show some Halo shit as that will most definitely influence my choice.

Go with whatever platform has the games you want now and for the immediate future, then buy the other when it has exclusives you want.

PS4

vvv I tried to go back to the 360 controller for my PC awhile back. I can't. The sticks are seriously awful compared to XB1/PS4

 

[Syphon Filter]

It's like Crackdown, Jet Set Radio and 80s 2000AD comics had a three way baby.

That is why i am interested in it.

 

[YourExWife]

Just grabbed a 360 controller, so weird. I think I actually prefer the X1 controller now. Time for Tashi donging.

The 360 sticks are better than the PS4. On PS4 my thumbs slip. The little lip is basically nothing on the sticks for PS4,its not true concave.

Difference of opinion I guess. I'm pretty neutral on the texture but the deadzone of the Dualshock 4's sticks is much better than the 360s and feels really tight in FPSes.

 

[Ora]

The sticky bumpers on the DS4 are no bueno. Decent controller otherwise. Touchpad is simple but effective in games like SF.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Does anyone know if there is anyway to get Halo 3 forge maps and custom gametypes downloaded still?

You have to add the person who has the map or gametype on their File Share as a friend then download it by going to their profile.

The loose sticks of the x1 controller is very duke like, thus it is the best controller.

DS4 is better than 3, but the placement of the sticks kills it again for me.

It's not as loose as some say. Pretty similar to 360.

I disagree, a new 360 controller has extremely tight sticks, they only get a little loose with wear and tear. I hate new 360 controllers.

You like DS3 style loose?

DS3 is garbage on all fronts.

 

[IHaveIce]

I despised the X1 controller at first. Played with the DS4 for a few hours last week. It's way better that the DS3 but eh.


Anyone notice the alarm sound on Lancang Dam is the same/similar to the alarm on PoA?

Don't know if it is the same, I just know it annoys me, it goes waaay too long

 

[Kibbles]

Huh. I hated the DS3, loving the DS4. 360 controller was GOAT, XO controller is bleh. Idk I almost only play FPS games and the DS4 to my surprise feels a lot better that XO. By the time Halo 5 comes out I hope there are some great 3rd party controllers.

Speaking of Halo 5, I'm surprised we haven't gotten any magazine articles with the first look yet.

Anyone misses Territories?

if 360 controller is goat then you should love the xbox one controller since it's the same just better.

Sold.

As for console war talk it all comes down to preference of games and since I am now planning on owning all this gen again whatever has the best games will get the most play time.

Now if XBO or PS4 gets ChromeHounds 2 and Phantom Dust 2 its over for my social life.

GGs!

My CSR won't update so I can't see how many levels I won today. Hoping for a few.

I do since the last game where it was decent fun. What did you change as you were asking about no win situations in territories?

I added a "Certain Victory" option so that when capture lock is enabled and it's impossible for the other team to win (Ex: 3 out of 5 territories captured by the same team) the round will automatically end.

I hope news for that game comes soon because I'm interested in it.There is a good chance I will buy the xbox one when that game comes out.I only own one next gen console right now and that console is the WiiU. I may also eventually get a PS4, but I will not pay for PSN+ since I can not afford to pay for two online services.

 

[m23]

Playing Forza 5 with the XB1 controller is amazing, so much feedback that you wouldn't think possible with just a controller. I don't think I can play another racing game without rumble triggers.

Nice it removes the all to frequent unlimited slayer when a team can't win an objective game. It happens so much in CTF, it just sucks really I'm trying to get the flag and randoms just padding their stats with kills.

If 343 catches wind of this, it could be the end of Oddball Swordbase as we know it.

 

[Plywood]

Could be worse, he could have an ugly hat on like stalker does .

Ushanka's are not ugly.

 

[FYC]

Is there someone from 343 who posts in the Something Awful Halo thread?

Yeah, probably won't be getting a XBO until Halo 5. I'd buy a cheaper bundle without the Kinect though.

They so are ugly, looks like you've just put some pelt on your head and called it a day.

Halo 5 map plans foiled , sword base had that dreaded elevator room it will be to soon if it's remade.

I know right, condoms are available in multiple places why send them to someone else. But on the plus side the bedding looks nice.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It's good to see that Ol' FyreWulff is moving up in the world.

 

[Steelyuhas]

Took me much longer than I anticipated to get used to the X1 sticks, but now I love them.

Still using the 360 controller quite a bit lately because I'm playing through AC4 on there and I despite the sticks on the 360 now. Dead zone feels huge.

 

[Ragnarok Flames]

nvm

 

[User 73706]

nvm

I saw it before the edit. Was that Alan Twodick?

We should set him up with Fyrewulff, it's poetry.

 

[Ora]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

That would not make it to the average gaffer on time.

yeah, decided to edit it because it was FAR from acceptable for this thread.

as long as we can get Nathan Fillin'Em as well.

The Xbox One sticks are initially too loose for me. Its also a smaller controller so I feel using it to finely aim tires out my hand much quicker. I like the 360 controller but I want to wait til I get some KontrolFreeks on the XBone controllers before I really decide.

Huh? the controller is the same size,not smaller..

 

[Ragnarok Flames]

Attempting to teach myself C++, what other things should i supplement that with?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Yea. It's a almost the exact same size. Maybe a hair smaller but I don't really notice it. Also I have to say the sticks are weird to me. They feel looser but they also seem more accurate. I really can't explain it. Overall though I do like the controller. It's really hard to pick which is my favorite between it and the Duelshock 4.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

I guess maybe the ABXY and stick size make it feel smaller to me. Dunno.

What's your current level of experience as far as programming goes?

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

The Xbox One's sticks aren't even close to being as loose as the DS3.

I love the Xbox One controller, my favorite controller at the least, it's pretty perfect.

 

[gAg CruSh3r]

Controllers

XB1>360>PS4>PS3

XB1 controller is king. It was a tad bit different at first but I fell in love with it after getting use to it.

 

[Ragnarok Flames]

What's your current level of experience as far as programming goes?

A semester of Visual Basic and HTML with a terrible Teacher. beginner with C++ and tinkered with Java a bit.

Nothing to shake a stick at really. its basically me trying to repair the damage that the Teacher unconsciously did.

 

[Fracas]

I finished Brothers.
