Morning Discussion

by Alice O'Connor, Jan 31, 2011 5:00am PST

Hello again, The Internet. I was away on Friday at the London indie games conference A Winter World of Love, which was quite lovely. If you eat your vegetables, do all your chores and behave with the utmost politeness, perhaps I'll tell you a little more about it.

I was tempted to join a post-conference game jam over the weekend but felt a little worse for wear so I ended up reading and writing instead. I ploughed through Heart of Darkness (some curious prequel novelisation of Far Cry 2), got well into the astonishingly astonishing BLDGBLOG Book and was delighted to discover that the stories of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips' crime comics series Criminal tie into each other in small ways. Many things are enjoyable, aren't they? Oh, and I think I played a little Jade Empire but I'm not quite sure because there seemed to be bad shmup sections and that seems unlikely in a BioWare RPG--it's possible I was delirious.

Speaking of indie games, voting has opened for the 2011 Independent Games Festival Audience Award. As a member of the audience, you can vote for one of the IGF finalists to receive a special shiny prize. Hop to it, then.

    Hey Shack,

    I've been getting back into BFBC2 recently after many, many months of no play. Anyway, I was only level 13 I think when I quit and I am 18 now. I tend to try to level up each class equally so I get to play with them all and get better at each. I did this with BF2142 until I had every unlock with one soldier.

    Anyway I unlocked magnum ammo a while back but then started to unlock the marksman upgrades for each class. I've noticed a lot of high level players tend to stick with the magnum ammo so, is this the best choice? I'm guessing the marksman upgrades lower recoil/increase accuracy/decrease bullet spread or something while magnum ammo increases raw power?

    I know magnum ammo for snipers is a favourite, especially with the GOL which I am due to unlock very soon.
