    Interesting.

    "unless of course you didn't enjoy the game and if that's the case, I dont know why you played for four and half hours anyway."

    They were your words spoken on page 86. If anything is condescending, that is.

    Because if I had fun, losing four and a half hours of time is a-okay. To have to replay that exact four and a half hours is fine right?

    (let's face it. Trigger fist is not Skyrim, its not mass effect. It's not an RPG where you can lose Four hours of time due to an ill begotten save. It's a grinding multiplayer. With literally the only reason to progress being better or more suited gear.)

    I understand you're not trolling and your opinion is perfectly fair in the sense of xp to get all the weapons is high and the game is awesome. (couldn't resist throwing in that "awesome" there)
    I can't post screenshots of the highest xp with all the unlocks because no one has got there yet without iap. I do say "yet" though. I do believe it can be done based on my experience with MC2 and MC3. Reached max on both of them pretty quickly because when I commit to a game, I really commit to it.I've nearly 50 hours put into this game alone so far. And i still have a life, a job and lots of other things going on. I just don't spend a lot of time asleep.

    And I know the developer intended the game to be a long haul game and not a quick fix casual one. To some it will appear that you need iap. To others it won't.
    Many console games and a few iOS games have enormous xp numbers to get to certain unlocks but the expectation from them is that players will invest vast amounts of time in the game to achieve the unlocks. Some will do that, some won't and some will just buy guns with iap and give up quicker on the game.
    Games like this need people to stay with it for the long haul.

    And again your opinion is perfectly fine but I certainly believe it cane be done and considered a reward for those that commit to the game and like the game a lot. It won't be easy but I like that too.

    This game isn't pay2win in The slightest.the unlocked weapons don't really give an advantage, just open up more varied play styles. For example. The m16 with a 3 round burst better suits some players. But not others. If you've paid to unlock the M16 for example, based solely on 'it's better' you will likely be very disappointed.

    I understand that e game is intended for the long haul and I have to admit, that making the guns worth so much XP will indeed make me play it for a long time. But don't you think it could be geared a little more favorably toward unlocking things? Playing matches with the same gun for the class you are trying to upgrade against bots most of the time can get very old. And since this isn't a console game, shouldn't it be at least a little easier to unlock things? There's just that psychological feeling of progression that needs to be there, but I'm thinking oh boy, another 100 matches and I'll be there....idk what are your thoughts? :D

    I think the xp could do with a bit more balancing. Well maybe not a reduction in xp to reach certain weapons, maybe more items in between to unlock would be a good option.
    I'd like to see some proximity activated mines for example. Or a perk that reduces your load out but increase your speed. Or silencers would be cool actually. I'd really like silencers actually.
    Something to fill out the gaps a little bit. But nothing major that might swing an advantage that characters way. A tough balance I imagine.

    Yeah that would be interesting. It would help to have some things to fill the gaps. And I noticed that the XP gain is roughly 10 per kill, so maybe they could up that a little for balancing. And yes, silencers would be awesome. It could provide an advantage but it should be one of the highest tier perks. Btw what's the highest perk you've unlocked so far? I have e banana clip and I've unlocked double stuffed but have you gotten any of the ones like electronic warfare or the heavy duty one?

    EDIT: God the crashes are annoying...just lost another 30+ kill match

    I'll edit mine.

    I don't want a flame war, or any other nonsense. I appreaxiate you like this game and the help youve put in the thread. I really did enjoy this game. I might not have put many hours into it. But those hours were important to me. When I stopped playing Warcraft I had put months of game time into it. The mass effect series. 300 hours +, Skyrim, 96. I'm Not against putting time into a game. In the slightest. And this IS a good game.

    But seriously! AGH! I enjoyed my m16, I hated my Uzi. I was working towards the UMP which everyone seems to love.

    It will literally take me a fortnight to replay those four hours and get back to where I was. Can you see why I am gutted to lose those hours?

    EDIT:

    Don't answer that! :)

    I'll answer anyway. If I lost my ump and desert eagle, I would be quite annoyed as well. I do understand that.
    Mp5 is better than Uzi by the way. It has a better rate of fire. Far more effective than Uzi, which I never quite took to.

    I've never had a crash. Except with the update issues. I think I must be very lucky. Could be down to the iPad as well.
    Heavy barrel is improved accuracy. It's usefull on some weapons, such as shotgun or usp but I find a weapon with a high fire rate or higher range more usefull to me.
    Electronic warfare is a lower sound signature when firing so you wont show up on radar. I'm not sure how effective it is but it does help if you're camping.

    I use the big guns. Tapping burst shot with it is as accurate and any gun and on the plus side u can shoot 200 rounds at a time with out doing some stupid hack.

    Love this game. Would love more updates and maps. If not on this one the TF2. I def would pay again for.

    What i would ask is simple:

    Bigger & less cluttered maps.
    Better way to throw gernades.
    Prone postion

    Pretty much play socom online and steal their ideas and i will be happy camper... Literally

    And btw this game rocks!

    Yeah one thing I really want is bigger, less cluttered maps. I find that I okay the fountain one the most, as some of the others are way too cluttered with obstacles

    Ok idk what to do. I won't go far as to say this is a broken game but out of the last ten matches I played I had 4 crashes. It's really really Frustrating to be on a roll just to have your game lag and crash. Btw is data stored locally or online? I was wondering if I should just reinstall cause this is just driving me crazy

    Ok wel, after 14.5 hours I finally unlocked the UMP. And it is a sweet gun that I'll most likely be using for a while. The accuracy, damage, and range are great, and the clip size+relatively slow rate of fire compared to other SMGs isn't as bad as it would seem. Definitely recommend people to get this
