Battlefield Bad Company 2 Cold War Hard Walkthrough. This level serve as a tutorial level and teach you the basic stuff you need to know later on.

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.

Hearts of Iron III is a game i played a lot lately and many people asked me by chat what it was and wanted to see some video of it. Since that game really isn’t much of a graphical game and more a mind game. This video will has commentaries that you can lisen to where i explain what I’m doing.

The gameplay video is set to 3 time the speed i played it so that you guys don’t fall asleep. I also invaded Italy because it would not take too long…

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.

One Man Army is a perk that allows you to switch you class at anytime during the game by replacing your secondary weapon. It allows you to replace your class without having to die, meaning that you can simply switch to the same class for an easy ammo refill. This ammo refill capacity is what make One Man Army a useful perk. You can hide in a safe place and use it to gain back all your initial ammo without dying.

This is practical for many style of gameplay. With Claymore and C4 you can deploy them, switch to the same class and put more explosive.
You can also put 2 claymore switch to a class with C4 and put some around. That’s very useful for creating a defensive system. You can also use one man army to switch to a class with the sit rep perk while advancing into potential mine field. And switch back to your regular class once you know where your going. It’s also very usefull for snipers that don’t like exposing themselves to get ammo. The only downside being, that you cannot quickly switch to your secondary weapon, you will need to switch to an other class. In the case where you actually anticipate close combat you will be in good condition to face your enemy with the class you switched to. The down side for snipers is that this perk put a yellow bag on your back that may not help your stealth as a sniper. One man army is also usefull for people using light machine gun, switching to the same kit is actually faster then reloading most light machine gun. You can also use this perk to switch to a class better equip to face enemy air support such as having cold blooded or a light machine gun to shoot down plane and cobra. If you start using One Man Army, you will likely end up setting up many custom class that use this perk to be able to switch to each one, anytime you want.

EA publicly distributed the beta of Battlefield Bad Company to people who pre-ordered the game. Battlefield Bad Company 2 Beta Multiplayer Gameplay 1 is a video showing a full game of bc2. This is the only round i recorded and turn out to be the round i had the highest score. But not the round where i had the best k/d ration strangely. I think i played well considering i have only a few hours of experience in the beta and at that time i was the number 1647 on the leaderboard of the beta.

Here is the second part

.

These two videos should be watch at the same time. Since many people do not enjoy hearing commentaries over gameplay, they can enjoy the first video alone. If you want commentaries you can watch both videos at the same time.

This time I choose to comment on one of my old Rome Total War Multiplayer battle from 2006. Enjoy

I just made a video to display how advanced the direct control really is. But unlike normal games I only use direct control like a 3rd person shooter, No Interface and no map. Its a 1vs1 tank combat game without fog of war. Me as the Germans and Xsistor as the Soviets.

It turned out to be a very enjoyable match, be sure to check it out!

All soundtracks are from the good old c&c games!

Part 1.

Part 2.

This is two video that should be watch at the same time. Since many people do not enjoy hearing commentaries over gameplay, they can enjoy the first video alone. If you want commentaries you can watch both videos at the same time. This concept will also allow me to comment on older videos that I published a long time ago and that would have deserve some explanations.

I had to help dictator out with all his preview/reviews so here’s my preview for Fallen Earth: An MMOPG/FPS set in the post-apocalyptic American Grand-Canyon.

Here’s the written review for if you didn’t understand everything:

Fallen earth, no not fallout 3, fallen earth although they may look similar in some way fallen earth is an mmorpg-fps in the post apocalyptic American grand-canyon.

After a series of unfortunate events with viruses and nukes, the American Grand Canyon became one of the few liveable places left on earth.
You start off in a facility and discover that you’re actually a clone. These clones wear a necklace which gathers information and sends it to a database, when the clone dies a new clone is created and will remember everything what the previous clone experienced. It’s pretty original and finally a very good MMO explanation for reviving in cities. After destroying your own facility, you find out that your DNA is damaged and you’ll die soon if you don’t fix it that’s how you start off on the main quest.

Such as in every role playing game you can create your own character. You can chose your sex, face, hair and you have a load of options for tattoos and piercings. However the character creation is less detailed than I’m used to, you can’t adjust muscle mass meaning that all characters have the same torso size and you can’t have, for example slim characters. The preset faces all look kinda similar and only eye colour and tattoos will make your character’s face different from other players. I’m afraid there’s a great chance that you encounter a clone of yourself during your play.

Gameplaywise, the game plays like any other MMO, you go on quests, grind, level up, move on to the next city and continue the main quest.
The creators did put quite some time in building a detailed crafting and scavenging system. Through scavenging you find loot and then you can use this to craft weapons, armor, medicine and more for own or trading purposes. Your scavenging and crafting level up with exercising it or reading books. If you have a high scavenging level you will be able to scavenge better materials and that way craft better weapons.
The FPS perspective is original but also has some downsides for example in some places enemies can shoot through walls while you can’t fire back because there’s no auto lock. And surprisingly you miss your opponent a lot more fighting in melee than with guns. The good side is that your opponent has several weakness points to aim for, shooting an opponent in the face will do significally more damage than in the legs or torso, you can also take out enemies from afar with sniper rifles and even fire from your horse or motorcycle.

The creator’s main slogan is “Are you tired of elves, orcs and pixies?” and they’re right this MMO isn’t the usual fantasy world, more a fictional realistic post-apocalyptic world. Of course the game has big mutated monsters to fight but the weapons and many mounts like horses, motorcycles and cars are all very realistic.
The game has a classless system, you can give attribute points to skills like intelligence, guns, charisma and mutations which are mainly buffs. There are a decent amount of attributes so that you can set up a team of different players each with their own skills.
There are 6 factions you can join, each with their own allies and enemies, joining one will give you an increase in attribute points for the area they excel in but will make the enemy factions and probably also players who joined those factions, hostile to you.

The game does still has a lot of minor bugs but most of them are fixable. The company creating this game does not have any other games released, so I’m sure they will take their time to fix the bugs.

The fun thing with any MMO is the interaction with other players, the game provides several dances and events to interact with other players and make new friends. If you meet the right people or join a fun clan MMO’s like this can be loads of fun.

If you have always dreamed of playing a graphically strong MMOrpg/fps in a wasteland then Fallen Earth is your game. It will be released the 15th of September and will be 15 dollars a month.

Hello to the dateyourgame community,

I am GamersDen22 and this is my first medieval total war 2 chronicle  and as you can see i am playing as the faction spain. I decided to do this because Spain is a very strategically placed country. This is because it is near north Africa so there is lots of room for expansion there and then to the east there’s France and after that The Holy Roman Empire. To start of with i decided to take the nearby town of Valencia for the following reason

1) it would make a good addition to my empire
2) it was a mission so i would get rewarded for taking this town
3) it would make a good distraction if i was to go to was with the moors or France.

So the first assault of the town didn’t go well at all as you can seen i lost the battle. But this weakend the enemy and so that my quickly put together army easily swept aside the rest of the reachable army and even tho i didn’t play the battle i won the region. I had to quickly end the video there because it was coming to to the youtube time limit of 10 mins. But i decided to sake the town so that i got a firm amount of money from that and so that the public order was high and i would start collection taxes from that settlement quickly.  I hope you enjoy this video and i am sorry for the bad quality ill try to make it better next time.

I left my cine-editor series aside for a long time, but now i got time again to work with the cine-editor so here’s episode 4 of my Machinima/Cine-editor series called The Mongol Invasion.
This episode doesn’t contain much fighting but is the start of the actual story. At the start I added some historical background of my Papal States campaign so that people who never watched it could follow and people who can’t quite remember what happened in that campaign have their memory refreshed.
You get to meet the characters that will play an important role in the next episodes and learn about the plan to stop the mongol invasion. The previous episodes were actually more an introduction, now the real story starts and there will be a lot more character depth.
Please enjoy

Now here a quite interesting use for the Freespace engine….a starfox mod…yes although this one does seem to be more on the sim side then the original which was arcade. I am quite looking forward to it and….I do hope that they put in the do a barrel roll line in there cause it certainly wouldn’t be starfox without that in my opinion without further ado here the trailer for it an do note that i found this today :P

Hello everyone today review is a bit longer since i try to make my reviews as short as possible but i made this one as best as i could since i really like it and in celebration of the upcoming sequel Overlord 2…now with 100 % more evil , minions , mistresses and fluffy animals……to kill.

I wanted to make a written review for this game as well but i think i put in so much into the review i think i basically covered most of it …. so i hope you guys enjoy…and please comment on both here AND in the comments section of the video and help me out here.

Finally, the voting period is over for the Men of War Video Contest and the data collected by the poll system have been analyzed by the Dateyourgame’s Elite Datamining Squad! It has clearly been a heated voting process.

We would like to thank and compliment all the participants who created videos for this contest and congratulate the six finalists who were chosen by a jury from Dateyourgame and Digitalminsoft and will earned a participation prize!

We were agreeably surprised by the number of participants. Some finalists have clearly been able to mobilize people to vote for their video, which is exactly the kind enthusiasm and community participation we were looking for! We wanted you to share your passion for Men of War with the most people possible and we think that this goal has been reached!

Also by using an open voting process we had two objectives:

• To chose the Grand Prize Winner, who will receive a Men Of War copy signed by members of the Men Of War Development team.
• To give one copy of MoW to two registered Dateyourgame members who voted.

To do so we tried to use the most democratic process by allowing anybody to vote. It was then possible to participants to use their social network to promote their videos and increase their chance of winning the contest.

By doing so we knowingly exposed the voting process to some sort of abuses. To reassure the finalists, the voting system we used has known vulnerabilities easy to exploit that we were aware of. We were hoping that all the participants would play by the rules, but as some have noticed, it was not the case. Does these behaviors affected the end results. The answer is: NO.

Since we were expecting that kind of situation from the start, we were able to detect fraud by allowing the behavior during the voting process. Like an IT strategist said: “Turn a Security Weakness into Security Enhancement”. In clear, the announced results were cleaned of all the invalid votes. The following table includes the results for Registered members and Guest users.

You will notice that DJ Szopen had obviously a quite effective strategy to bring Guest users. But it wasn’t enough to compensate for amount of appreciation the IIIYURYIII’s video earned when Registered members and Guest Users are considered all together.

We declare IIIYURYIII the Winner of the Men of War Fan Made Videos Contest and you can see why by watching his video!

Thanks again to all of you who participate by creating videos or by voting.

Attila for the Dateyourgame team.
