+1 for the counter edit!

Yep, there's "beautiful" and there's "attractive" (both different from "cute") in my view, and there's not necessarily any overlap.

Most importantly, "beautiful" is highly artificial in nature and so far I've only seen it achieved by heavy make-up (not always visibly heavy makeup). I.e. it's not "real" for me. "Attractive" also has a lot more to do with pose.

So, for the record: left is "beatiful", but not "attractive" (mostly due to the face she's making), and right is "cute", possibly "attractive".

And also, I have a loooot more tags than those for women!

Please give me some references of people saying that "it makes no difference". I sure makes a difference, why would it be used otherwise?

But it is a necessary difference? Not necessarily.

Could use a lot less of the music ...

Ok, the message is not a good one, but adjusted to "do unto others" a public message is better, for the victim, than private confrontations.

But a public note targets both known and unknown assailants and also signals the target.

Yep, "Obtain Flag Attacker Ribbon 10 Times"

Isn't it the same display as in the server browser? Right button to move to Rotation and > and >> for current/next map?

(currently at work and only relaying things I've read, not tried)

DonkeyEatingWaffle · 15 days

I wear my flag attacker tag proudly (you come and get it)!

Server info is on the in-multiplayer menu on PS3, so I assume it's there on the other console as well?

imbaczek · 15 days

So, doesn't that mean you NEED to put a portal there?

Software written for the "initiated" will never gain new audiences and I'm tired of helping my SO out just because I'm wired like the developer of the program/web site/game. Useful things should explain themselves and not require prior knowledge.

That said, I too don't want to spend time in my umpteenth game being spoon fed another slight variation on FPS controls. So there needs to be alternatives, optional tutorials, adaptive introductions etc. But if the industry wants to power itself forward into more hearts, it needs to step it up and not rely on a nearby "initiated" to show newcomers the ropes. For one, it limits my SO's options to primarily the games I play, which I know for sure she's not interested in (however much I'd like her to be).

I think Portal 1/2 are excellent games (the first better than the second) and their design introduces the player smoothly into the controls and world. BUT I also believe that it is often chosen as a "first game" based on its first person perspective. <generalization>It's similar to the kind of games we would like to be able to player with our SOs.</generalization>

Looking beyond the learning curve Portal requires a lot of spatial awareness and precise maneuvers on top of the controls and portal thinking. Quite possibly what keeps a lot of people out of games, coordination under stress.

If your SO is a non-gamer, focus should be on introducing any game, not setting up a "preferred path" according to you. My SO is not into games as she does not have the "achievement" need I have. Points, levels, trophies, badges etc. is not interesting for her. I've gotten her to play/like Super Mario Party and the early levels of Little Big Planet for the simplicity and wackiness, not for "progress".

I've recently discovered Journey (oh joy!) and I think I'll try that on her, hoping that the extremely simple controls and the beauty of the landscape will make it a better stepping stone towards where I'm at.

Ok, BC2 was my first BF so I consider the "full spectrum warfare" to be the BF experience. Reducing the options to one, whichever it is, subtracts from the game.

So I go for the Epic Battles servers and certainly not the CC DLC. I do hope AK DLC is more Harvest Day than Heavy Metal, but time will tell.

flammable_jello · 18 days

So one "single aspect of combatant blatantly similar to other game series" is allowed (i.e. aerial dogfights), but not another (i.e. infantry close combat)?

NB: I'm not getting the Close Quarters DLC.

flammable_jello · 19 days

So the community is both complaining about Metro being so infantry focused and at the same time demanding a jet only mode?

I'm a ground player, on foot, wheels or tracks, so I'm not interested in this (nor am I inclined to play Metro), but I'll not stand in your way as long as I don't see you rant about other players' desires "diluting" the Battlefield experience.
