who plays B4, we should get some online going and hows killzone? kinda wanna get it, just picked up 2k, not the biggest basketball fan but it's alright.
I absolutely loved AC3 until it got to the damn battleships. Got stuck and never went back to it. I need someone to get me through the ship battles so I can get back to the story. [Reply]
yeah the ship battles in ac4 have caused me some problems. Does the game pick up at all? seems pretty bland so far..I've only played maybe an hour or so of it but it seemed like the same shit on the last gen consoles..
everyones been hootin and hollerin about how there's so much to do in this one..like what exactly? [Reply]

I didn't even bother with 4 since it is so big on sea battles. [Reply]

Have had absolutely no no blotching problems with AC4. [Reply]

There is quite a lot to do in the game, but it is basically just the same as the other games. If it ain't broke...
The game, as most every other new generation game, was designed for the previous generation and ported over. [Reply]

In surprised you dislike them so much. I sometimes find myself idle in the story mode b/c I'm too busy boarding ships and building up my ship. I'm not a big fan of the shipwrecks though. [Reply]

I just can't do them right. I won my first couple battles then I had to start dealing with ground attacks and they ate me alive. Just made me lose all interest in a game I was really enjoying up to that point. [Reply]

You talking about the forts you have to take out? [Reply]
I have tried stop and go, run and gun and keep my distance. Nothing would work for me.
Try staying a ways away at first, trolling back and forth making yourself a moving target. Use your mortars until you run out.
Then, use the same trolling pattern back and forth, but much closer, and use your broadside cannons.
With this strategy, I was able to take out hard forts without much difficulty and mid tier upgrades.
Also, in the southwest seas, there are larger loots to be had, which speeds up your upgrading process. Try to get ships with loads of metal alone, but if you have to take on a convoy, when you take out a ship, board it, and repair your so before fighting the rest of the convoy. [Reply]

I lost my entire game save when my ps3 died. Don't know if I will ever get back to that game or not. [Reply]
I gotta admit these PSN/PSstore outages are getting ridiculous. It was excusable when PSN was free Sony, but it no longer is and well get your fucking shit together. [Reply]

Absolutely. Sometimes it is a nightmare on ps3. [Reply]

You must play a lot more often than I do or something. I play 2-3 hours a night, sometimes on Saturday or Sunday morning/early afternoon. I've never noticed a PSN outage. [Reply]
I haven't seen any outages either. I leave mine in standby mode so it will take care of updates and when I wake it up it sometimes has issues connecting. A quick shut down and restart takes care of that. [Reply]
