This is a guide about video games and the look your character has. This guide explain the advantage of having a special looking character over a normal looking character in relation to how skilled you are. Character appearance is an aspect people don’t always explore with an actual strategic mind set, this is probably not helped by such game like Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 that offer a clone war. When it comes to in game action it becomes very important. Every detail that make you stand out and make you identifiable can be important and play in your favor or make you a target. So how you look is important in many games such as Mount & Blade Warband, Halo series, Rainbow Six Vegas, F.E.A.R and many more

Men of War Multiplayer Gameplay , This is an other fun multiplayer match with Greatdictator, Deryni and Kyledk. In this case I hold the left flank. There wasn’t much action on it but it allowed me to deploy my troop in a good position to hold the flag and support the center. Once again I ended up calling a panther. But the enemies ultimately disable it.
It was a fun round, but i didn’t do that much overall other then support my team.

This is an other fun multiplayer match with Greatdictator, Deryni and Kyledk. In this case I mostly supported Greatdictator and Deryni with a few paratrooper, storm trooper and a Panther. The adversaries were not very experimented from what I understand of the communication we had. 1 of them even left half way because Kyle pushed him back too much. Even so Deryni had a hard time in the center with two player rushing him with infantry and tank. I probably could have help him earlier but I wanted to keep my point to spawn a panther that would certainly have no problem killing future tanks the Russian could spawn. At the rate the adversaries were spending their infantry and tank there was no doubt that victory was ours. But even if this battle wasn’t the greatest achievement ever I think the second half of the round is good entertainement Men of war style. Panther owning is priceless…

X3 Terran Conflict Gameplay 1 is a combat video from a game where you don’t actually fight that much overall. X3 Terran Conflict is mostly a game about adventure, exploration, trading with risk of ending up in a fight. While in this fight I manage to destroy lots of ships i could have die many time if I had a weaker ship and in this game you learn quickly not to engage enemy fleet. But in this case I have the help of couple fighters and 2 covert. So I had plenty of decoy and cover to survive the mighty Xenon fleet.

Thanks the the free week of Men of War Multiplayer me and a couple of dateyourgame forum members had the opportunity to play this game together last week end. This is a 4 vs 4 game of victory flag. The objective was to hold the center of the map and increase the % captured of the flag to win.

Danger Close is the perfect perk for people who like to blow stuff up. This perk increase by 1.4x the damage of explosive weapons. This mean this is the perfect perk for noob tubing, rocket launcher, claymores, grenade, etc. Not only does it boost those but also boost explosive killstreak rewards. Combine with scavenger or One man Army, this perk is easily the most cheap perk you may want to use to ruin the experience for you enemies.

The hardline perk is a perk that reduce by 1 kill the number of kill necessary to reach a killstreak reward in CoD MW2. This perk is mostly usefull in hardcore. In normal mode it prevent you from using the stopping power perk. To compensate this effect you may want to use the scavenger or one man army perk with it. While the can be usefull to call an air strike I don’t believe you need this perk as you become good at the game. It may be usefull to those who want to call nukes.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Lightweight Review (Podcast). This perk is fairly simple, it speed you up by 7% and in the pro version allow you to raise your gun faster when stopping your run. This feature make it interesting for player that run a lot and can give the edge in a face to face. Lightweight perk is good when combine with Marathon since together they make the player very mobile. You can also use it with ninja perk to make your running arround silenced. Or you may want to use commando to knife people around like a zerg.

Nexus the Jupiter Incident Star trek-Universe at war

With the release of a few games base of sci-fi series like Star Trek Online and Stargate Resistance. I remembered Nexus the Jupiter Incident, a game very few people seem to knows unlike Homeworld series or Sins of a Solar Empire. Nexus the Jupiter Incident never reached it’s full potential as it was suppose to when named Imperium Galactica III. But still have some really impressive capacities and a few mod maker took advantage of this by making amazingly good looking mods. Star trek Universe at war mod is probably one of them.

This video feature a mission I created myself in less then 10 min, thanks to the Skirmisher mod and the very easy mission editor that the game provide. I put the game in cinematic mod so the AI controls the ship and camera with a good looking result. I hope you will enjoy even is space games don’t attract as many people as other type of games…

The Perk Marathon allows to run none stop for a longer distance. This perk allows to move arround faster in the environnements and take advantage on the enemy by flanking him. In the context where you need to pull back for tactical reason, this perk can make the difference between life and death.
This perk is easly addaptable to all difficulty level. It is espetially usefull when the player adopt an offensive strategy and want to engage the enemies faster. The pro version of this perk allow to climb ladders and cover faster. This speed reduce the time you are expose without your gun while climbing.
It also combine very well with the ninja perk. Since running make a lot of noise, the ninja perk make it silent. You can also use the lightweight to increase your running speed and to be able to raise your gun much faster when you stop running helping to be ready in a face to face. If you like to run around, you may also like to jump around, so you can complete the set with commando perk that allows you to fall without damage. And since running make you get close to your enemies faster, the commando perk may help you kill the enemies faster with the knife. While marathon perk is mostly a moving perk, it may also be usefull for player that enjoy camping since it allows to redeploy to a better spot faster or allows to flee from your enemies to a better and safer spot.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Bling Perk strategy Review is more a podcast then an animated video. Since I like to share my strategies and my subscriber like some visual stimulation, I figured I might as well upload that as a podcast so that the maximum people can take advantage of what i may say about it. I hope this will help player that may not have understand the potential of the perks I’m talking about. As for experienced player this may confirm what you know and I highly encourage you to comment to complete the information I say.

Many people appear to have terrible performence in the beta version of Battlefield Bad Company 2. The first reflex for most people is to actually think their computer is bad. Well the good news is that it’s likely not the case. This guide will explain you how to turn a very laggy experience into a good experience smooth gameplay.

if you actually have the requirement for the game
OS: Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad or higher
Memory: 2GB
Graphics: 256 MB Video Card (GeForce 7800 GT / ATI X1900) (or better)

The game support Directx 9 10 and 11 and is configured to choose the highest directx your GPU can use.

While that choice allow you to get the best visual quality it may tax your system way to much, in my case for exemple I ended up having arround 24 fps meaning nearly unplayable because my GPU support directx 10.1. But while it support it, my ATI 3870 doesn’t seem to be able to answer the higher demand of that directx and this is the case for many people. The solution is fairly simple.

You go in “My Documents” folder then “BFBC2Beta”. Open the file “settings.ini” with the notepad.

Go to the like DxVersion=auto and change it to DxVersion=9. Save the file and launch the game.
This should allow you to play in the less demanding directx the game support and increase significally you fps. In my case it went from 24 to 49 or more.

Also you may want to disable Bloom by changing Bloom=true to Bloom=false. The bloom in the game appear to be too intense for the eyes of many people. it can be blinding… So having bloom disable may increase performence and make it easier for you to spot people.

By default HSAO is set to false, but if it is set to true you may want to put it on false to increase performence.

Finally if your still lagging after all that, you may want to try to turn everything that is on High or Medium to low.

If you still lagging after all that… well you may need to buy a new GPU after all or new computer and I recommend you to check out my Hardware Guide.

Bling is a perk that allows you to use two attachment to your weapons. While there are many potential attachment mix. I found Bling mostly useful when it came to kill enemies with FMJ rounds to unlock larger clip. But here are some combination I find useful. For the assault rifle at normal, using a silencer and an aiming device allows you to remain stealthy on the radar without being force to use the iron sight. While at hardcore using an aiming device and FMJ can allow you to kill your enemies easier even as they hide behind cover. You may also find practical on both mode to use the heartbeat sensor combine with an aiming device to have an edge on the enemies. With sub machine gun you may want to combine rapid fire or silencer and akimbo. Like for assault rifle you may want to use a silencer and the aiming devise of your choice. You could also gain from using extended mag with an other attachment. With light machine gun, the grip allows you to increase you accuracy, using bling you can also use an aiming device to aim making it easier to kill your enemies. With sniper rifle you may find very useful to use the silencer and thermal scope. The silencer keep you off the radar and reduce the flash of your gun, while the thermal score may help you spot your enemies. Bling is a very useful perk that allows you to customize your weapon into something your are comfortable with, without the sacrifice of one weapon attachment instead of the other.
