Well i thought since i spent soooo much time trying to figure out where it was when i later on found out it was directly behind me i just slapped myself so i thought why not and try make it easier to find for others.

To start a Crusade you will need the right diplomatic context, because you have to get the blessing of the Pope. So maintaining good relation with him in the previous turns is crutial. One advantage of starting a Crusade or Jihad, over participating in one, is the ability to choose the targeted city.
The Jihad works similarly, but in the case of Muslim, it must be started by an imam following the loss of Muslim territories. Since Imam are under your command, it quite easy to start one compared to the
Christian factions and the diplomatic requirement they face. It’s important to note that to join a Crusade or a Jihad, you will need a general with an army of 8 units.

Crusades and Jihads have few advantages.
The armies participating move twice as fast then normally.
The units participating cost nothing to maintain and many units are only available as mercenaries in the crusade and jihad.
When a crusade or jihad achieves its objective, the generals participating will win a lot of traits and gain commanding experience.
For a Christian faction, the relations with the Pope will improve in the case of a victory.
The fact that your army moves around fast may allow you to loot many cities on the way making your empire richer.

While the crusades and jihad can look attractive, using them at the right moment is very important. You need to know how to gain from them, since they offer interesting opportunities.

Before joining a crusade or jihad, you need to consider the following aspects:

Make sure that the objective isn’t too far from the territories of your faction.
Conquering a city far away brings with it many problems.

A newly conquered city in the middle of hostile territory increases your military cost and divides your forces.

If your crusade doesn’t advance fast enough the desertion rate will increase and weaken your crusading army. If many factions are participating to the conquest of the objective, you need to remember that only one faction will control the city by the end of the crusade.

This means that at some point you can have a general and his army in the middle of an hostile territory without any place to retreat. The process of bringing him back can be dangerous making his army ineffective and costly. It can then be considered a waste of resources.

Red Dot Sight

The Red Dot Sight is an add on that doesn’t have a long range zoom.

It’s main feature is it’s special reticule form by the red dot.

It allows the user to acquire a target with accuracy without being aligned directly with the eyes.

The main interest is to quickly increase the accuracy without limiting the arc of view.

This allows to acquire and fire on a target without losing sight of the environment.

The only cost being a reduction of movements when it’s used, making the player an easier target, especially in close combat.

Recoil has a major effect too, and forces you to compensate regularly to keep your target well aligned.

From a tactical point of view, we recommend to activate it exclusively when a target is aligned.

As soon as the target is down deactivate it to move back to your normal speed.

By using it this way you will gain from it’s quality without the inconvenience.

From a general stand point the Red Dot Sight is useful in all environments.

It is good in the open and close environments as long as you develop the right reflexes.

The Red Dot Sight appears to be the most versatile add on that you can choose in Call of Duty 4.

It is mostly adapted for a player with an aggressive way of playing, that like to move around and need to eliminate multiple target as fast as possible.

Heres a game mechanic we don’t see everyday and lil o in the 2003…or was it from 2005 era…anyways you can throw guys everywhere,make their heads pop ,control em and burn em ….and all that WITH yOUR MIND!!!
The game is great,original,not bad graphics for the time and good production values…not to mention the game has ALOT of extras and i think you need to find Evil gnomes to unlock most of em and you can also view the movies from the game as well and also replay the game with different skins…although boss battles weren’t expected….they weren’t bad for the most part …well happy head poping.

The ACOG is a type of scope. This add on can be added to nearly all the weapons of Call of Duty 4. The main interest of the ACOG is to allow the player to aim at a target with precision at long range.

The ACOG has 3 negative impacts though.
It reduces the accuracy.
It limits the view of the player outside of the scope and reduce the movement speed when activated.

This means that it is important to activate the ACOG exclusively when the target is acquired and in the middle of your reticule. We recommend the ACOG uses especially at the hardcore difficulty since the enemies are weaker.

From a tactical point of view, we recommend the ACOG for players that adopt a defensive and careful approach. The ACOG leads the player to act as a supporting role and provide cover for his team, staying at a safe distance from the enemies. Moving crouched or prone to get a better stability provides an advantage to it’s user. Of course, if for a more offensive style, we recommend the use of the Red Dot Sight.

Finally, in general, the ACOG isn’t a very popular add on, since those that adopt a defensive stance tend to prefer a sniper rifle then an Assault Rifle with the ACOG.

The perk sleight of Hand increases the reloading speed of you weapon.

This insures that the player will be ready to engage the enemies with a full clip in no time.

In the case of shotguns, the sleight of hand does make a major difference, making the reloading speed instantenious.

So the limited quantity of ammo in the shoguns becomes less of an issue due to the gain in reloading speed.

The Support weapons also gain from the sleight of hand by reducing once again a long reloading time.

The sleight of Hand show it’s effectiveness for all weapons in all difficulties level. But shotguns and support weapons still gain a little bit more from it.

To conclude, while the avantages the sleight of hand provides, we think it’s better to adopt reloading strategies then choose this perk.

The only exeption being the use of the shotgun where the nature of the guns and contextual use of it gain a lot from having a faster reloading pace.

The perk Stopping Power increases the damage inflicted to the adversaries by increasing the power of your bullets.

This perk is effective with all weapons.

It is especially effective with a sniper rifle, since without it, it may be hard to neutralize your enemies in one shot.

At the Hardcore mode, the perk Stopping Power isn’t as useful, since your enemies are neutralized in a couple shots.

You should not use this perk on Hardcore and it is recommended to choose a more adapted perk instead.

Finally, we recommend the Stopping Power perk at the normal difficulty, no matter the weapon you use.
While in hardcore we recommend to evade that perk at all costs.

This is the first video of a series of mini guide on Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, that aim to help new player to the game.

Double Tap is a Perk that doubles the fire rate or your weapon.

The increase in fire rate helps you eliminate your adversaries faster. This reduces the risk of counter attacks as a consequence.

On the other hand, doubling the fire rate leads to a faster spending of your ammo and forces you to reload more frequently. Reloading takes more or less time depending on the weapon. In the context where multiple adversaries are present at the same time, the reloading may cost you your life.

This is why we recommend to use this perk with weapons that have larger clips, meaning weapons with 50 ammo or more. We refer here to the P90 and support weapons.

Overall this perk is useful on both normal and hardcore difficulty level.

At the normal difficulty, where killing an enemy requires more hits, you gain an advantage especially in close combat, by dividing the time necessary to kill your adversaries.

On the hardcore level, this perk can be useful if you want to play with a suppressive style and random burst while on long range. Since you can have more chance to hit your adversaries with burst containing a larger amount of bullets. This is especially true with the support weapons.

Finally, this perk finds it’s use on both difficulty levels as long as you adopt an adapted style of playing.

This is a Rainbow Six Vegas 2 video, showing the terrorist hunt map, Import Export at Realistic it show you a walktrough of how i finished this very hard level. One of the really hard part of the level is when you start and need to actually shoot enemies on the other side of the fence and near the end of the video where the enemies only spawn when you are really expose making it a nearly suicidar situation

This is a Walktrough of the Rainbow Six 2 Terrorist hunt level Presidio at the realistic difficulty level. Showing an easy way to finish that level using a small attack and retreat strategy.

Enjoy

Here is a small teaser of Rainbow Six Vegas 2. I got it two days ago and basically finished it one time at realistic. Was entertaining and this video is a small teaser of what I will publish in the comings days/weeks. I most likely will make a walkthrough of the game since unlike Assassin’s Creed this one doesn’t have a story as deep. So i will be able to show a good walktrough without ruining the interest of the game.

Here is how to climb The Citadel of Acre in Assassin’s Creed. It’s one of the annoying tower to climb in the game since it’s not the most easy to start to climb. As you can see sometime it also doesn’t work to well the first time depending how the game feel. For once I included the jump in the hay also call the Leap of Faith, where less then two meter of hay stop a fall from many, many, meter.

This is a video from Assassin’s Creed Acre’s Church. In this video I show how to get up there and get down there in an realistic way. Of course you can alway jump down into a 1 m of Hay to stop your 10 stories high fall, but less risky.

Since Spartan is already doing a great job at showing the main story of the game, I will show some side quest objective, starting by how to climb some higher point in the game in order to make some reconnaissance of the area. Some place can be a little more challenging then others so i will limit myself to those few. So here is one of the really High point of the game in Damascus.

This is my first video that i used movie_cam in, so please excuse me if i am a n00b with the camera movement. The clip is from Rome - Total War V1.5. To enable the movie cam you need to go to the game’s shortcut on you desktop and select properties and on the command line just type -movie_cam ex: Target: “C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War” -movie_cam. Why did i put the video on Dateyourgame? Well, i want more people to see the game, and maybe more will try it. Because of Attila’s videos i found out about Rome - Total War and Medieval II Total War.What I like allot about my video is the camera movement and the music, i love Enya.I will not post all my videos on the blog, if you like the ones that you see here you will find more on YouTube, where my nick is underground94teo.

The Witcher is an RPG produced by Atari for PC that runs off of BioWare’s Aurora Engine, the same engine used in Neverwinter Nights 2. (don’t quote me on that…) The game features many unique things such as a new combat system that has never before been used, a gritty and VERY adult storyline, and some great voice acting. Although the translators suck… Anyways, I only have the demo, hoping to crack (i’m a freeloader) =P or but it soon. Enjoy the early portion of the demo! The whole demo would take several videos to cover, so that will come later… maybe.

Hello am back with a overview of a game thats free and more or less fun it has FPS as well as some RTS elements in which Humans are pinned Versus ALIENS and the games called TREMULOS!!! It has alot of servers but i also think we could make good movies in the game .
