If you have just started then you only get around 2 magazines. You either have to pick some more up off a dead body or pick a different weapon up. There is also the ammo dumps on some map. They are marked as rectangles with 3 dashes on them on your map. Go upto them and press circle, you get loads more ammo and 3 grenades which help lots when your first starting out online.

Yea you were swearing, lots, and you kept telling me to DIE, even tho I was already dead
Shoot 'em. They go down stupidly easily.

I don't think you can die enough times, in a game like this

BAN ROCKETS AND GRENADE LAUNCHERS
T.
T.
am i the only one that found the heavy use of rocket launchers a little... dull? i still only have the assault rifle, the result of which would be me shooting at people only to be met with a rocket to the face. felt kinda futile
edit oh apparently not

Rockets are quite fun you can see them coming and move outta the way, grenades are only useful for suppresion you can get a few kills at a time with a bit of skill and luck. The shotgun when people use the auto lock on glitch is far more of a problem TBH. Anyway good fun tonight think the tactiticion is key to winning a game, all i need to do is be able to combine it with boost and its going to be even better. Seemed far more balanced teams tonight aswell made it a lot fairer and far more fun.
Rubbish imo. 99% of the time the rocket firer would do it at point blank range, take out 3 of the enemy but kill themselves in the process. End result is they come out on top with 2 points.
I don't have a problem with sentries, spawn points or grenade launchers, they all have their place and add to the game imo. Rockets and shotgun lockon though... really make things tedious.

I'm sort of with Streeteh as not having played much it was kinda annoying getting owned a bit, knowing it was lack of decent weapons, not skill to blame. i think I am still 56 points away from getting 3rd rank which unlocks 1st new weapon, but it is gonna be crap if it just means getting rocketed to death every night until then.
Still not had a good online blast for a while so no grumbles tonight. If it is like this every night it would get dull, but I am sure I will level up soon.

Didn't stop players from both sides doing the same by the end though.
IMO, the weapon is there to be used, I'm using it, no matter what I have to listen to. Both sides had them at their disposal and on Sunday, people were complaining about my shotgun.
Oh right rockets in your face i understand now then! you cant dodge, but from a distance you can see them lol.
Edit only reason i used the GL tonight is that i was trying the assault class and thats all he has apart from the pistol, i tried to pick the assault rifle if i could though.
I can see where you're coming from, but on the other side of the coin i play in these clan games for a laugh, not to fight for the best score. It wasn't particularly fun tbh, but there you go, as you say the weapon is available to you so you are within your rights to use it.
When are our higher ranked players going to play another clan then and earn us some Valour points?
I think once more of us hit the General rank then we should proceed with a few clan games. We could just go for it now but I fear we'd get wtf pwned judging by what I'm seeing on the Clan Universe screen in-game.
Another fun game tonight I thought. I missed the peak period as was busy earlier in the evening but caught the last few games. My only concern right now has nothing to do with any specific weapon or class but to do with the actual nature of the game. Even though we are all ranking up steadily the game still just seems like Quake style chaos.
Perhaps the tactics etc will just come naturally after a few more sessions, or once we are mostly all aware of our favourite class / combination and start sticking to a specific role.
One thing I'm def not feeling with this game is the lack of weapon customisation. I pretty much solely use the helghast assault rifle and just wish I could attach a drum mag or even a silencer. I know this isn't CoD4 but these little touches always help keep weapons from feeling samey.
If you look at your abilities icon on the bottom left of your screen you'll see 3 little boxes, the left one should be a balaclava, middle is usually grenade and the right one will be C4 when you unlock it.
All you have to do to activate your disguise is press left. When you do that, the edges of your screen should go a little darker and a bit blurry, as if you were looking through a mask/balaclava..
The enemy can usually see you if you get close as their crosshair will turn red. You can shoot as much as you want in a disguise, it's only when your bullets hit someone and about 5 seconds after that, that your disguise will come off. Also getting shot will knock off your disguise.
Also, I left early tonight, the rocket spam was getting ridiculous. I only started doing it as I couldn't be arsed playing properly if everyone else was firing nades and rockets everywhere lol.
Oh and I need to get a mic for my PS3, having to use TS with Badger on PS3 to talk to you through his mic is a waste of resources.
I was using the shotgun almost exclusively and didn't use the lock on glitch once, it doesn't work that well anyway. Or at least I couldn't really get it to work in the public games I played before the clan game last night.
As for the rocket launcher I think they need to increase the splash damage range on it that affects the person firing it as someone firing it at almost point blank range and walking away unscathed is ridiculous.
Still, like Skippi said, everyone has access to it (Or you do if you've unlocked it) so we can't really complain about it, but it was certainly getting tiresome seeing the same two people just spamming rockets at close quarters though, especially when you're on the recieving end
