you know what i just thought about today?

i wonder what's going to happen to the player base post-destiny. i imagine the playing field is gonna get much tougher after that...

I think Destiny, the substantial learning curve, and the matchmaking issues will put a pretty big dent in the community. I'd imagine it will mostly wind up being mostly old ps3 diehards.

I probably won't play it much after Diablo comes out and tides me over till Destiny.

That sucks for the people who aren't interested in destiny, like me. Hopefully some gaffers still play regularly.

Just watched AKyemeni's world record video, why do people get mad about this? He's helping his team by healing them a lot and also stopping the enemy team with kills, it actually seems like a very fun loadout to use.

can you link video so i can see it? Found it. Meh Akyemeni is a really good player and I see why people would get upset. I don't like farming in any game. But different strokes for different folks. I end games fast and go on to next. Thats how you get host quiting if your not host...

Don't really think much of the MP but I don't know if it's just that it's not running particularly good right now, constantly running into lag, uneven teams, disconnects for a few seconds and complete disconnects from the game - that's ignoring that it also takes forever to actually get into a game most of the time. I'd like to think there's a good game behind all that but it's really not feeling very playable to me right now and with Destiny around the corner they don't have long to convince me it's worth sticking with.
 
The matchmaking is sooo gooood.

I need 72 supplies per round now.

- Survival mode
- I get thrown in a match which is already 0:2
- all team mates are at level 1, 1, 2
- enemies are at level 12, 11, 14, 18

Yep, have fun.

Anyone else having more trouble than usual getting a game in Supply Raid? Usually exiting once, or going to the main menu then reentering usually does the trick but nothing. :/

Dashboard out, You won't get penalized. I don't do it often but if I get tossed into the middle of a match and ND thinks I would have only earned 6 supplies in 6 minutes then I quit.

I'm looking to start up a party. It's just me so far but I might have one other person in a minute. My PSN is the same as my GAF name.

Dashboard out? Like hit Options>Quit or PS Button>End application?

This shit happened twice to me and lost some members :( I need to play a full on match and barely meet the requirements!

New multiplayer thread title.

If you are following the meta game, Survivor mode is a sure way to commit survivor suicide. Although the mode is fun and tense, I care about my camp :(

Interrogation is the way to go.

Survivors is how I got the most parts. I never got enough from supply raid or interrogation.

Hold PS button > Close application. Quitting from the game menu will penalize you the day.

Really? I figured supply raid would be better as you have more time and respawns in case of mistakes. I avoided survivors for that reason (never played interrogation)

Feel free to friend Padinn, I loved this. I have my Playstation Camera for voice chat - but haven't been able to tell if it's working properly at present. Anyone recommend a relatively cheap headset? (I have 5.1 stereo sound, so I just want something for voice chat - ala Xbox One headset)
 
When I plug my headset in (the crappy one that came with the PS4) all audio goes there. How do I make it so just voice goes to the headset?

So you're that guy that blasts his 5.1 surround sound while playing MP on a mic? I think people aren't hearing you because they muted you :p

I have not tried any of the other modes besides Survivor mode. I have yet to not reach my supply goal for the day. I think I am at around 110-120 per game. It is a matter of time before I get screwed and get matched against an entire team of pros.

I have been able to keep my team afloat so far on grim match ups.

That is what makes interrogation the best actually, it is infinite respawn until either the timer runs out or someone unlocks the box. However a lot of people will just use it to farm points, so if you are getting smashed by the opposite team, a lot of times they will unlock 2 sections and then just go on defense racking up the kills, revives, heals etc. Then at the last minute, or if the other team makes too good of a comeback they will unlock the last section.

I like it since it allows me to practice weapons since the games tend to last the longest, plus I have just played so much counter-strike back in my day that I'm kind of done with round based type multiplayer. Maybe I'm too twitch or something, but I just don't have the patience for waiting for a round to finish, especially if I die early and I'm sitting there watching others play for 3 minutes.

It's not the supplies, it's the missions you have to do for the meta game. They are pretty hard in "survivor" because you have less time to complete them.

Can you do this over and over to cheese the system so you can quickly get those Hunter/Firefly Faction trophies? Or do you need to be careful how often you do it?

I am enjoying myself in online primarily in the Survivor game mode but I'm still only on Week 5, Day 2. Then I'd have to do the whole thing again with the Fireflies and I honestly won't have the patience to go through the whole thing again.

Ah ok. I am only on week 7 and those missions are starting to get a little on the border of being difficult on survivor mode. I can see these becoming an issue On week 8+.

Yeah, If you quit from the in game menu then yes, you can basically skip a few days then play a match just to keep some alive and you'll have to play during the 100% risk missions. So you can probably get away with skipping at least 60-70%% of the matches required.

My suggestion is to save the marking and down missions for your 100% at risk weeks (8, 10 and 12 I believe). You should easily be able to use marking twice and downs once.

And once you unlock Crafter 2 or 3, using crafter (EDIT: for the gift mission) for at least one of the 100% challenges is super easy too.

Do only the challenges you have done previously get more difficult each time, or do they all get more difficult?

I unfortunately used some of the easier ones on the first few weeks, because I was a bit unsure on how the system worked.

Just the ones you've done.

But healing, marking, downs, executions, revives, downs with your favorite gun etc are all super easy even on the second tier.
