Anyone interested in playing this right now? I'm kinda itching to play it again.

Mop it up · « **Reply #2601 on:** February 03, 2010, 12:57:34 AM »

Well, I s'pose I could give it a shot. Remember though, I've played the game all of one time, and that was single-player.

This is probably a bad idea...

Stratos · « **Reply #2602 on:** February 03, 2010, 12:58:21 AM »

Pah! You'll do fine. If we get more people I'll play on your side.

Let me set up my Wii and add your code first, though.

Accepted Maxi and EasyCure, request sent to Stratos.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2604 on:** February 03, 2010, 01:22:44 AM »

Thanks EasyCure for the recomendation.
I had this Nyko one since June 2007.So 3 years isn't that bad.
I just woke up after my nap and I should be able to play for a little bit.

Wow. The Wii Speak doesn't work very well with this game, I could barely make out what the two of you were saying. The quality seems much worse than Animal Crossing; I couldn't even tell which of you was talking. The echo was kind of freaky, I think I even heard my name a few times...

Stratos · « **Reply #2606 on:** February 03, 2010, 02:44:00 AM »

I tend to shout the name of the person that kills me. I normally keep the WiiSpeak closer but this time it was farther away. I guess I'm used to AC where there is less background noise.

Kinda sad because I could hear myself just fine through the echo. I was really shocked when I heard myself drinking my glass of milk through the echo. Maybe you didn't have the noise canceling option on? There is one in the options menu and its supposed to help keep out background noise. I think I also fiddled with the voice and music sound levels to make voices better heard.

I can't access the Wii Speak options since I don't have one.
Remember that my hearing is already impaired due to being partially deaf in one ear. I already sometimes have some trouble discerning what is said during Animal Crossing, so when the quality is reduced and major echo is thrown in, it's pretty difficult. Plus this game requires more concentration than Animal Crossing, so I'm also paying less attention to the voices.

Why do you shout the name of those who shoot you? The little information box already shows who killed who. I heard you say "Whew!" a lot, which was funny when it echoed until it faded out. And I think it's funny how you said I'm a cold-blooded killer when it was you who often shot me before I was ready/right when I respawned/in the back/when facing Maxi.

Stratos · « **Reply #2608 on:** February 03, 2010, 03:23:05 AM »

You did the same thing to me too! I spawned on the street ledge and BAM! Fried with an energy bolt. Though I was more calling you a cold-blooded killer in shocked humor of how good and ruthless you were on your first online match. It is strangely humorous to think of 'sweet little innocent Mop it up' killing us.

Mop it up · « **Reply #2609 on:** February 03, 2010, 03:34:11 AM »

You think I'm good? What game were you playing? I'm pretty sure I got last in every match...

I am sweet and innocent. Don't you go spreading lies about me. And hey, if you can't handle getting beaned in the head, then don't shotgun me in the face when the round has just begun and I haven't even picked up the controller. You reap the seeds you sow.

EasyCure · « **Reply #2610 on:** February 03, 2010, 12:58:24 PM »

Sounds like I missed good times.

I'm back from vacation. How about some boiling Fondue Pit-ing this Thurs/Fri/Sat?

EasyCure · « **Reply #2612 on:** February 03, 2010, 08:59:32 PM »

i'll try to be on tomorrow after work (any time after 6pm EST)

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #2613 on:** February 03, 2010, 11:35:14 PM »

Yeah I'm down for that.

I might be up for that. But if you're going to shoot me in the face, then you're paying for the plastic surgery.

Stratos · « **Reply #2616 on:** February 04, 2010, 05:42:22 AM »

Watch out, she bites.

I might be available on Friday or Saturday night after work as I don't think I'm closing or working that late this week. Though the boss if fond of changing the schedule on the fly

For those of us with WiiSpeak problems I found some handy tips.

1.Go into options then Sound options.From there lower the SFX and music down to 5 or 6.Lower the better.
2.Turn up your volume on your TV.This way the people can hear you but not the in game noise since you lowered the ingame settings.
3. Move your Wiispeak closer to you.
4. Increase the WiiSpeak sensitivity.

Another tip is to use headphones for your TV if you have that option on your TV.

This game doesn't really have a grenade launcher, does it? That was my favourite weapon in Goldeneye on the Nintendo 64. I know there is that one secondary weapon you start with when using the Explosives weapon set, but that thing has a really unimpressive blast radius.

Yeah i don't count the TCP launcher as a grenade launcher replacement. I was KING with that grenade launcher in Goldeneye. That across the room grenade kill Pro did to me earlier? That used to be me!

So! All right. Hackers. Tell me about them, please. What kind of antics do they partake? I've seen a couple of weird things that seem like hacks. First of all, unless I'm missing a weapon, I see people firing rockets like a machine gun. Is this some sort of rapid-fire rocket hack? Secondly, I swear I've seen somebody shooting through walls. They camped at my team's base and there was constantly a stream of shots coming through walls. Unless, again, I'm missing a weapon that can shoot through walls.

So what's the deal here? Hacks? Or am I just going crazy?

Stratos · « **Reply #2622 on:** February 07, 2010, 12:10:47 AM »

Probably hax. Though sometimes if there is enough lag it will appear like they are hacking in the matter of shooting through walls and such.

Mop it up · « **Reply #2623 on:** February 07, 2010, 12:16:46 AM »

Yeah, I have seen some weird things due to lag, like players falling over dead when they weren't shot by anything. But the shots were constant throughout the last half of the match, so I don't think the lag would get that massive.

Stratos · « **Reply #2624 on:** February 07, 2010, 12:19:13 AM »

I think every instance I've run into of non-stop firing has obviously been related to hax. I remember early on there was never any sort of streaming fire even in laggy games but once the hackers broke loose I started seeing it.
