You're right, I really should cater more to your opinions.

Dry your eyes princess. It wasn't a personal attack. But explosive barrels as a gameplay construct are comment worthy?

As I said before... carry on.
 
Considering the industrial setting, I can forgive the barrel placement. Having an exploding barrel out in the jungle? There's just no way you can explain THAT.
 
I don't really care. It doesn't make the game better or worse, I just thought it was kinda funny that in 2009 we still have explosive barrels placed around in strange locations. I guess it's one of those things you just have to accept.

Yeah, it's a massive oversight but, as you say, it's just one of those things that happens in games (and any creative media I guess).

Frankly I feel there'll be other things that make me suspend disbelief. Fuel and ammo dumps are one of the most important things to secure in any area, let alone in a conflict zone.

Cheers.

at least the explosive gas canisters in Killzone 2 are a sight to behold, try shooting them in their base, a single shot. Next-gen explosive devices... and fun, except for Edge.

Dear god I hope not. It worked well in LBP, but it was TERRIBLE in Reistance 2. It made the game unplayable because of the shitty translation, I didnt understand (nor clearly hear) what the hell they were saying.
Plus they used all the standard Disney voices. :lol

I would love to hear them curse in Swedish in the most awkward ways possible! "Attans", "jäklar", "förbannat", "fy fabian" etc, plz make it so Sony!!! :lol

Hey, I love the things. Systematically forcing the Helghast taking cover near them, and then setting them off right as they approach. The barrel explotions in RE5 look soooo good.
 
Despair of the early morning
Despair of the darkness
Despair of the Despair
Despair of Old Age
Despair of the road closed
Despair of nothing to do
Despair of nowhere to go
Despair of endless errands
Despair of money running out
Despair of the message of Despair
One transmits to those one loves.

Despair that has to be resisted
Despair that the light of the day
Will help me overcome
Despair I will pray my way out of
Despair I will in the course of the day
Sometime overcome.

Not the great Despair
The unending Despair
The final Despair.

The small Despair of who I am and where I am now.
The Despair that still can be resisted,
By the writing of a few awkward lines
Early in the morning.

wtf who wrote this shit

Did anyone care about the explosive barrels in the Half Life games. I remember tossing a tun of explosive barrels in that game, and its consider one of the top 1st person shooter. Why is barrels now a problem.

I think I remember that Valve themselves thought about putting an explosive barrel factory in HL2 just to explain where the fuck they all came from.

Also, safety signs reminding Combine to stick close to their assigned barrels.

Despair


Despair outloud
Despair and fear
Its all despair when noone hears
My soul is screaching
It mouns to you
Its like a whisper, its like a flute
The midnight fence, that holds me back
It aches my heart with metal bars
Despair is all i know
Despair its lonely yet its my home
Despair is simple, it holds 7 words
Despair
come join me
We wont die alone

I always liked barrels as a good complement to grenades. Both go boom, but you can't save up your barrels and bring them into a more difficult situation, they stay bound to a specific encounter. They are free in that sense, and as evidenced right here, that encourages people to use them even if they don't really have to. More boom more often.

It can get ridiculous when they're in really remote places (top of a spire, in a tree, areas that can only reached by climbing ladders etc), but purely as a gameplay device, I love me the barrels.

When I get to the warehouse, what I like to do is leave one Helghan alive and wound my squadmate so he doesn't interfere. Seriously, the AI is amazing. When I ran to the top of the balcony, I was shooting down at the canisters watching the enemy flee from his cover to avoid the explosion. So after a little while watching him play musical cover, I hopped over the rail to finally get the guy. After killing the guy, I find out I'm being fired at from above. I look back to where I was and there was a Helghan. I left another alive and he made his way to my previous spot... that sneaky bastard. So I decide I'll go back up the stairs and get him. I get up there, fire a few shots and he says "I'm outty" and hops over the rail. HOLY SHIT! I CAN'T kill this guy now... he's too awesome. Well I did anyway.

Side note: For an extra enemy encounter, wound your squad mate before he leaves the area and wait for the Helghans to meet you at the door. Or just wait until he's calling for you in the distance because they'll eventually come to the door anyway if he left any alive.

That'd be awesome... I envision "Mr Fucking Convoy" as a hard boiled finlandssvensk with lines like "Seena surballar fryser ni?" and "Perkele, är det den satans konvojen?"

I'm almost as flattered as when someone made a nice long random comment about how I "ram guys" because I destroyed this guy and his "clan" in CoD4 on the 360 version (of course that fanbase was 10 times worse than the folks on the PS3 CoD4 community), he never did end up fucking my mom while I watched. :lol

Now gaffers have resorted to Youtube comments to hide behind though, that's funny. Oh well, once again I've been immortalized on youtube.

There's your problem. You need much more elaborate (and expensive) equipment in order to properly calibrate a set to ISF standards. Discs are a good primer, but they are no replacement for the required equipment.

What am I looking for then? I went into the TV's service mode to make some tweaks I found. I wouldn't mind tweaking it more, but I'm going to buy a new set here soon, so I don't want to do a house call yet.
 
Dammit I was walking around bestbuy when I saw one of those pre-order killzone 2 boxes. They had a stack of them facing sideways. Of course I thought holy shit early release! I almost dropped a deuce in my pants :(
 
Before I was against the idea, but now I honestly think Bruce Lee Roy should just edit the OP and make this the Official thread. It'd be a shame to see nearly 3 million views go to waste.

No more or less BS than the Official thread will inevitably have. I think this thread is cool because it's basically like a diary account of the game. From rags to riches lol.
