Btw, everyone post a screenshot of your stats! Mine aren't that great, but at least I've retrieved 5 bacons.

Cool, I was looking everywhere in-game to see how many points I've accumulated but for some reason, it's nowhere to be found. I just wanted to see my progress towards the gold trophy lol. This will be coming in handy.

Definitely not as good at Killzone as other shooters. Damn youlack of aim assist
Honestly, I do WAY better without aim assist. I find it to be more fair too.

I need to get my W/L and K/D back up - something to challenge myself with to try and get better and play smarter. Also, at the rate I'm going it'll probably take me 95 more hours of MP to get the 1 million points trophy.
Oh it's definitely more fair and I enjoy how this is different than other FPS games and the lack of aim assist is a big reason why... But switching between this and BF4 really screws with my aiming. After playing BF4 I'll put this game in and my aim will be all over the place lol

Not at all. Instead of being placed at set locations like in KZ3, they are an ability of the support class and he can drop it down anywhere like spawn grenades in KZ2. However I believe they disappear faster and the enemy can destroy them.

They work just like the KZ2 grenades, but they look like a beacon instead.

Last nights games were insane! I was part of the squad that played 24-player TDM. My name is RJN on the PSN. Other gaffers feel free to add me! I typically play support and I revive a ton.
Those are mostly spawn assists
Yeah those revive drones be putting in work when when gaffers play together lol

Is the PSN stability still an issue?

There's my awful stats. I'm pretty sure I had at least a 1 K/D ratio before last night. I just couldn't kill anyone during the GAF matches. You guys are too good. I'll be on again tonight so hopefully some more GAF games are going on.
Oh sweet. Great news.

On your stats page, how do you change your emblem/icon from default?
In My Career > Playcards, you can locate a challenge you completed and select it and opt to make it your new avatar or whatever.

Unspectacular, but I was can't say KD has been a goal, playing mostly CTF and capture point modes. Securing and holding objectives = dying.

K/D isn't that big of a deal honestly. Going for objectives much more important.

If it makes you feel anybetter, my kz2 kdr was like .7 or lower. It was the first competitive fps I played and I sucked for a good long while. Id link my stats, but GG doesn't have kz2 stats up anymore.

I have yet to jump into KZ:SF MP (just beat the campaign last night). Any consensus on the best levels to play online? I've read that The Spire is pretty awesome...

Apparently I really like melee kills. I don't even feel like i do it that much.
I really don't know how I have that many.
Did anyone record the GAF on GAF matches last night? I wish I would've.

Press the touchpad during a match to bring up the current scoreboard. GG definitely needs to address the UI in a future patch, though. Like, take out the information about the Warzone options before starting a game. Put up more useful information like the number of players in the game, their stats, etc.

Wasn't able to, but I will record whatever happens later tonight.

They're all really great and serve up a good deal of diversity. The Divide is a GAF classic.
The Park is my personal favorite. Love going in and out of bushes.
ref
Member
Approaching from the rear is a good strategy to get those who hide in the bushes.
Yeah, it would have been nice to see those GAF vs GAF games recorded, they were great fun.
In terms of map, I like The Wall and Park the best.

Menus are quite awkward. I was 3 days in before I realized you had to push the touch pad button down to see the score screen.
As for what your team is doing, it really depends on the mode. Regarding general scoring and leaderboards in the current match, press the touchpad button down at any time to see that information.
For who's winning/losing, there's a color bar at the top of the screen that grows as objectives are completed in a given mode. So for the CTF mode (the beacon capturing) for example, you'll see the green/red bar grow with each successful capture. You see the bar grow for all modes in a way appropriate for said mode. It works for most modes.
Where it fails is for TDM. To me, TDM is a mode about specifics. You need to know specifically how many kills ahead or behind your team is so you know how to approach the last few minutes of a match. The way it's currently set up, you have to guesstimate how far behind or ahead you may be. It's a totally unacceptable approach.
There should be numbers displayed for TDM. Period.
Scoring should not be rounded (I suspect they are given the number of draws I've seen in TDM).
I didn't even know it was possible to like The Wall.

Man, the maps in this game remind me why I keep coming back to this franchise, Every single map seems solid, doesnt break with different mission types, and they look terrific. I still have yet to pop in my copy of BF4 (which is fine given how broken I hear it is) and have been really enjoying dropping turrets and reviving my allies. Hope that the player base keeps growing : )

What?! I love The Wall, man... When you're with a premade the choke points in the trenches for objectives are great fun. It's so chaotic.

No exp/levels, but you complete challenges (such as killing x amount of players with y weapon or reviving x amount of allies) to unlock new weapon parts/ability upgrades.

Yea, The Wall is my favorite. I'm not really feeling any other maps other than that and The Spire.
Same here. What timezone are you in?
I need to play with you guys more, lol. Randoms are terrible, and no game chat makes it even worse.

I'm in the Best Coast (PST). I'll be setting up GAF nights on most days starting at 6PM to 9PM PST.
