Review on Battlefield Bad Company
Reporter: Shifty_Gunner
Date: 4/23/2009
As ive been gone from 2142 due to laptop errors. (which will be resolved shortly) Ive come to dust off my 360 once again after 3 months of sitting there collecting dust.
This will be a review of the Battlefield Bad company game for 360/pc
Singleplayer mostly consisting of objective like missions. constant war, small sized battles of urban and open field combat. weapons, explosions and vehicles and voice overs are all of great detail.....but maybe the graphics were a bit too much? I found myself being blinded several times due to the graphics high details. Theres so much going on and focusing on your targets or objectives or even other players become a little difficult.
As far as weapon reviews your standard M416 is basically all you need in single player, even if you decided to ditch the weapon for something of better/ your choice you are always stuck with it in the next reload session of the game. There is all kinds of asortments of sniper rifles , HMG's and assualt and submachine guns.So getting bored isnt really a problem. Knifing is a little tough, ive found myself behind enemies and all of a sudden they notice you and blast you away.
(it is possible to knife, just be cautious) The controlls for the Xbox version are a little sluggish, Sprinting is like .....how would i say ? Gallopping your bouncing around and you really dont run that fast. But you can pull your knife out just for a little speed boost. BUt mostly vehicals get you around the map/missions.
Also Totally destructable Battlefields, Having finding myself unable to find the exit i make one for myself via Grenade launcher or bashing doors out with my knife/fist. no need for twisting door knobs here. But shooting through thin walls proves to be difficult in this game, finding my bullets easily stray from their rightful pathways. =[
Ai/comp players. THey actually help you in the game. Say your finding yourself on foot and faceing a tank ? Well theres a actual player whos there Named Haggard, though it takes him a little while hes sure to help a lending hand/explosive As for the other members such as sweetwater, he comes in handy with his M249 SAW he'll lay cover fire for you in a instant. Sarge is really just there to shout orders or to curse really dont mind him lol.
Vehicals in the game are, but not limited to. Gunboats, Helicoptors, Tanks, Humvee, Even a Golf cart, finding myself using them quite often during a few missions. theirs usally two different types of each vehical. What surprised me in the game is THe Legionaire mecenaries that help out the Russians. (i thought the french hated them) but seeing the french helping them kinda didn't surprise me. But dont take them for peace lovers, their Elite Acta non Verba in latin (Action not words) and oh boy do they live by it in the game.
Other weapons that are of interest in the game, Laser sights , which sendings a homing missile from the air onto vehicals ( cant target infantry with) very helpful but mustaine a lock for at least 8 to 10 seconds at most. The Motor GPS taken from the Russians you can call upon Motor fire if you sustain a lock for 5 to 10 seconds, comes in handy for Bunkers and taking out machine gun inplacements. Rocket launchers, For vehicals and heavily gaurded Buildings. and you cant forget good ol c4 , only good for is blowing up buildings and objectives , and if your extra good you can take out tanks with it =]
Target/crosshairs: i find this part really cool since each gun has their own way of " zooming in or out " or focusing your crosshairs on a target. Its really nice that they paid close attention to these details.
Overall i personally give this game a 8 out of 10 due to the extremely blinding ive been put through just for the Campaign version of the game. but I do insist that any Battlfield junkies like myself must try this game sooner or later. Also to end this, EA has annouced a Battlefield bad company 2 which i'll be preordering to get a glimpse
This is Shifty and hopefully i see you all on the battlefield =]

Recon Extensive Lambert Review
Reporter: Shifty_Gunner
Date: 4/21/2009
Well in my few months of playing 2142 I've discovered that the One most Underestimated weapon is the Lambert Carbine. The weapon itself is Of basic design, unlike many of the other weapons. Its not really sophisticated at all.
Its basic in shape and in Action.Many dislike the weapon due to the lack of Damage. I find this to be false. Though in Rapid fire succession It is infact weak but extremely Fast, compared to the Sub-machine guns it does relative damage.But in single shot, and with a steady hand and trigger finger its a force to be reckoned with.
Also what makes good combinations with this weapon is, RDX explosives if your going for the opposite teams Assets its good for close to mid-range combat. Also some Might not know but the stabilizer also works with the Carbine weapon. letting sharpshooting and head shots with this underestimated weapon Become one of a kind.
Using the weapon in rapid fire is Decent for spraying enemies but Most of the time unfortunately since the lack of power they will take you out before you do.I dont recommend it unless you've had experience with Evasion and Steady aim.
Also In my own experience i can take down about 3 to 4 enemies within a single clip, though rarely i can take out more. Although its not as great as Regular assault kits. It can very well hold its own. Its Low Recoil. 30 Bullet magazine And high accuracy is ideal for a experienced or Intermediate Snipers.
For taking out Opponents Assets i recommend The camouflage,and Rdx explosives. I do not personally Guarantee Success everytime But I've found it to be a very effective way for defending yourself while removing their Assets.
Warning. Some Think that while in possession of the Lambert That they are part or as strong as " assault" kit users.Ive found myself in this situation and i can say that 80% of the time I've failed in Combat thinking that i can Do this. Though some have Found ways to. Ive yet to master this.
Also The " Decoy" or Ghost Signal item is also great for sharpshooters as well as snipers. Ive laid them down in a corner or near a enclosed area where ive used the lamber in Single Fire Succession to take out numerous Opponents with ease. i Recommend trying it at least once.
In the end, I recommend This kit with the Lambert for Intermediate and Experienced Snipers and sharp shooters. Due to the lack of backing power. It takes patience and Practise to use this weapon in mid-range and even harder work for Close quarters combat.

Title: Computer Vrs Console Gaming
Just seems to me that fewer and fewer people are gaming on their PC, and more on their consols. The proof is obviuos, walk into any Game store and you will see that the PC section is slowly shrinking and being marginalised. Most now only have a top 10 wall. This is due to a number of reasons. Games are becoming more and more advanced, menaing that only the biggest firms can afford to produce games that can compete with the big sellers such as farcry ect.. This also leads to a lack of origionality, but thats another issue.
Also consols are becoming more and more like computers. You dont need to use your computer to play games online anymore, your consol can do that for you now, but on a bigger screen and probably with a better connection.
I say fight these trends! They will eventually lead to a lack of choice for the consumer. The day will come when there will be mabey 3 different types of games and absolutely no community spirit to go with them. The computer is more then just a consol for playing games, you can run programs that haven't all been made by the same company, you can keep in contact with your friends and there isnt a thing the company can do about it. Computers offer freedom from too much simplification of the gaming experience.
Dont let consols take over!

TGW Tournament
By GUNN XO Aristocrap
The past few weeks has seen an immense amount of action in TGW’s 2142 tournament. It is here that the best of the best from several clans around the net compete for control over custom game maps, some made by the staff over at TGW. In the beginning of the tournament, EU was dominating the PAC clans. The advantage battles resulted in EU winning every round. In the second week, EU had a bit of trouble on a customized Camp Gibraltar, but saw victory with the other maps. In the most recent skirmish last weekend, EU saw a devastating loss, defeated in all of the map battles. We hope to see EU make better progress next weekend! Among the UAF members participating or have participated are (in alphabetical order):
-Aristocrap
-dementedusa
-Gazer22
-JohnDoe666
-MHKilla
-pat103196
-PyzstElite
-Woozer
Hopefully more and more UAF members will decide to join the fray at TGW! We’ll keep you updated on TGW tournament battle results and news.
