Thanks TTP for the serv =)

Seems like voice chat was completely screwed for me... was it working for you guys ?

Voice chat made every sound like Stephen Hawkins :/

Dunno if people could hear me talking to myself and telling my sister off though, she can be annoying all the time.

Question from someone deciding between a 360 and a PS3: Is Warhawk good enough to add to my list of reasons for wanting a PS3? And do you think it's better than the (generally positive) reviews it's been getting? Kind of boring questions, I know, but I'm curious what you guys think. Thanks.
Click to expand...
Unequivocally, it's a reason to want a PS3. Most reviews are now coming in at 8.5-9 range and I think that's generally fair for the game, but not necessarily indicative of how much unadulterated, off-the-scale fun you can have with the game.

A guy on ps3forums came up with a great idea... assign chaff to R3. Right now it's too hard (IMO) to use while evading if playing with analog since you need to move your thumb off the left stick. That extra split second makes a big difference.

That may have been me. :lol

I tried to capture the flag several times with the tank ;)

My heroic dash back to base was epic...half way on foot, half way in the jeep. Someone from my team jumped on the back, someone else in a warhawk took down 2 other planes, made it back to base with the blue flag with about 20 seconds to go :D

Bravo to the red team

Yeah, sometimes the button combinations become a bit too much, even for a hardcore player.

Switch to hover, descend, jump out, run and get flag, hop back into Warhawk, ascend, switch back to flight... SHIT, under attack... flare, afterburner, airbrake slide... ungh.

OTOH, it's nice that you have that much control over everything.

While it might not be as polished as Halo 3 (or CoD4, which is coming to the PS3 anyways), it's a heck of a lot of fun. It's cheap, bundled with a good headset. No reason not to get this game if you're getting a PS3.

It shouldn't be the primary reason you're getting a PS3, as Halo 3 might be the better online shooter (though I personally don't care for Halo). There are a lot of other reasons to want a PS3 though, so I can only recommend it. Heavenly Sword (rental at least), Ratchet, Uncharted, Guitar Hero 3 & Rock Band (both which are multiplatform), CoD4 (multiplatform as well), HL2 Orange Box (multiplatform), Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4, Final Fantasy XIII, White Knight Story.

Do it!

Man, KZ2, MGS4 and (why don't they announce it already!) God of War 3 are reason enough for me to get one. The only thing is that all my gamer friends have and recommend a 360. But I dunno, I just think the future is brighter for the PS3...and Warhawk sounds pretty awesome from reading some of these posts. Thanks.

Who are some good people to add to my friends list from east, north, and euro. I was planning on just going through and seeing who posted the most in this thread from those clans, but we all know that the most furious posters aren't always the biggest gamers!

Don't add me - I'm known for barely playing games. :lol

Bebpo - even though I bought it with an EU account; my PS3 is US, so I had to set the server list to see servers from all regions before i found the GAFu server.

I almsot NEVER heard anyone, and when it worked sound was terrible. Was fine on SCEE servers tho. I guess TTP's BW wasn't enough. TTP upgrade your line please :p

Also, just checked and I can host 12 players, not that bad

Wait, you can map Chaff to R3? The only options for changing controls I've seen are inverting the axes on the sticks. I'd REALLY like to switch the "push to talk" button to O instead of L3, then map crouch to R3.

Incognito would have to do it, or make a patch that would allow you to map certain buttons.

@TTP: I don't know your schedule. Is it possible that we do another GAFu private session some time on the weekend? Then we should have all the people together in the clan that bought the game online. At least tht's what I hope...

Edit: Doens't make sense to create a ranked server. We should just meet regularly on privat ones. It's dumb that you can not put a password on them.

Can you crush people with a warhawk? I don't think you can, but it'd be nice to just hover down and squish some dude under you firing at you.

I believe so yes.. The game has a physics collision system it seems.. so if you hit anything too hard you get hurt...

Also my stats don't always seem to save. I played on a Sony server and finished a map and got some medals but then my profile says I have no medals :(
