If you're not on we'll wait until 18:30.

Well, I would prefer 11(6)pm. I don't really want to stay up until half 12, i've got work tomorrow. Half 11 on the other hand wouldn't be as bad. Even if it's 23:30 when we start at least it means we'll be done by 12.

What, so it's midnight now? Better make it 20 minutes then.

Looks like the Statue of Liberty has been doing too much coke.

I think collectively we could buy it and use it as a deathmatch area for real life GTA multiplayer matches, the lack of cover would make it very strategic. I can see Marney sitting on the horizon a way off with his sniper.

No, your first priority should be taking pics, don't worry about actually playing competitively while taking them. Just do your duty.

I got to thinking last night about the tracking using footprints, and I remembered in Brotherhood while playing as Desmond outside of the villa in Monteriggioni there was the trail of footprints that you could only see with eagle vision. Actually wasn't that in Revelations too, you could see the routes guards patrolled using eagle vision.

Massacre is the master when it comes to handing out e-pain. Either him or Stoic.

I just hate that place, they overanalyse things too much and end up going into page long crazy speculative theories they've invented without any evidence whatsoever. Why can't they just make a penis joke and forget about it like we do? Also, how many of the noobs that sign up here actually make a worthwhile contribution to the forums and don't just post "L0K IT TOOMY VERCATTI IN DE TRALUR! I NO IT HIM CUS MY FREND TOLD ME IT WUS HIM AND HES DAD WERK FOR ROCK STAR!!1!!"

And as you play as a Native American you could use them to track your prey... It could happen.

WAAAAAH! GTAForums! BAN! BAN! BAN!!

Well Italian towns are known for their packed together, narrow street feel... at least towns built in/before the 16th century were. But I think rooftop roaming will still be an important part of the game, it's what makes AC unique. I'm sure that even if the buildings are more sparse there will still be a means to traverse them easily; some new gameplay mechanic that makes it possible. Who knows what kind of tools the protag has at his disposal? Also, if there's snow there'd better be footprints left in it. That's the only thing that bugged me about Skyrim.

I'm afraid shitty, generic FPS games are all the rage nowadays and take precedence over anything decent that comes out. Why bother trying to break a mould when you know for damn well that millions of fanboys around the world will fall for the same shit every year and keep you profitable?

I knew it was bullshit when I read this.

I'm not going for the choppers even if they are there, I never was very good at aerial combat - as you witnessed during the fuckabout on Monday. I'll just head straight for the nearest blip and try to aim a bit ahead of wherever they're running to.

Just found out my thief can easily kill Draugr Deathlords. Sneak killing finishes them in one hit, but spamming my dual weapons with power attacks also kills them very quickly too, they can't fight back because of the knockback effect of the power attack so basically they just stand there stumbling around. Also killed a Draugr Death Overlord in two hits with a sneak attack.

I must admit that was the first hard mission in GTA IV, mainly because it took me by surprise. But even then it wasn't even that hard. And I actually found it easier outrunning the cops in a car rather than going for the speedboat.

I am biased towards Nintendo for watering down the gaming market with all these family-friendly, keep fit proud americany get up and dance around like an idiot "games" that aren't actually games. I've never owned a Nintendo product*, and I reserve a particular hatred for the Wii or any future product using that name. It's not true gaming, which should involve sitting on your arse with a basic controller in your hands moving as little as possible. *Actually tell a lie, I had an original Gameboy back in '92. Also, I always hated Mario when I was a kid. I'm just stating my general opinion here, it doesn't related in any way to the argument going on. *wipes arse and leaves*

Well considering it's only rocket launchers there isn't going to be much strategy or sneaking around involved. Just run up and start blasting away randomly. You could make it half an hour I guess depending on how many actually turn up.

I beat Krosis with the aforementioned 15x sneak damage, a dagger and the shadow stone ability. I haven't done any of the main storyline, not even been to see the Jarl of Whiterun, so none of the dragon lairs actually have dragons guarding them yet (good strategy if you want to get all the shouts early on as they are active.) But the Dragon Priests are there and when I went to Shearpoint Krosis wasn't in his coffin, he was just standing there so I snuck up behind him and killed him in two hits. Most of my killing is done with a dagger. Since i'm a thief i'm not exactly a decent fellow. If I see people walking along deserted roads they get pickpocketed and then their throat sliced. That levels the one handed skill quickly. I invested a lot of perks in the smithing tree, going for glass weaponry. Then I decided I wanted to use ebony weapons instead as they are black and would match the Nightingale outfit, so I had to invest more perks in that side of the tree. I have quite a few perks in the one handed tree and also the archery tree too. I mainly reserve archery for situations where I know I can't sneak up on someone as i'll be detected. If I can sneak up on them i'll use that instead.

Ah sod it let's go for the rocket launcher deathmatch at the airport then. Platform: PS3 Location: Airport Duration: 20 mins Auto-Aim: Off (doesn't really matter with rocket launchers anyway.) Weapons: Rocket Launchers Police: OFF Traffic: OFF Pedestrians: OFF Blips: ON Online I.D Display: ON Reticule Health: ON Voice Chat: ON Respawn Distance: Near Respawn Time: 1 sec Time of Day: Morning Weather: Clear Dogs: Cat-like Rape: After ingesting copious amounts of alcohol.

Well my thief's one handed is a lot higher than archery since most of the time you're sneaking up behind enemies and slitting their throats. Also on an unrelated note, the decapitation kill for dual wielding two weapons reminded me quite a lot of Star Wars: ROTS. I made do with the Thieves Guild armour throughout most of my current game and didn't die, but now i've switched to the DB set. (I'm switching back to the Nightingale set when i've completed those quests.)

I think we can work something out using just those phrases. Or we could do morse code with the car engines.

Nah I fucking hate laptops. So what do we reckon? Rocket launcher deathmatch or perhaps we could do two ten minute matches instead; one RL and one in TBoGT.

Actually Bandit Chiefs are really easy for my thief to defeat, even without sneak attacking and just doing dual wielding power attacks they go down in two to three hits. Although I am using an ebony dagger and sword combo. But still, my Nord tank had more trouble taking them down than my thief.
