    A couple questions that need ansewring, and comments that need feed back from me!!!
    OK let me start off by saying that I am on the PS3 Version, which from what I have heard is the best running atm. Any way excuse any grammer mistakes please in advance, im in a hurry. PSN: Samzoix ADD ME TO TEAM UP (I prefer you to have a mic)

    So I like the game but here some questions:
    1. WTF?? Is up with the sudden difficulty spike, all of a sudden these mutants get rocket launchers and never run out of ammo, the bosses have recockulous weapons like the 3 shot launcher. It seems that co op is the way to go but still, if im solo i don't stand a chance.

    2. What are ark-falls? I know that they are that red icon that pops up on your screen but what i want to know is what do you get out of them, i never really get any items or much money once a crystal is destroyed or a boss is defeated.

    3. I need help with modding weapons, is there no camo option? Why do I have Assault rifle mods yet con not add it to my assault rifle? And when I go to mod something a cannot add the mods I want I.E. When I choose to mod my shotgun I can only add a butt-stock even though I also have a mag upgrade available, and It doesn't have a ADD MOD SLOT option to it after that?

    4. Where can I buy vehicles like dune buggies, and where can I find the best weapons from vendors? Are they secret or already on the map.

    So for my comments:

    Shadow War needs MAJOR connection tuning, it lags like no end.

    INVISIBLE OBJECTS I RANDOMLY CRASH INTO WHILE DRIVING AND THEY APPEAR SECONDS LATER

    In competitive 6v6, launchers of any kind SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED

    Make Pursuits a little bit less time consuming i want outfits but in less time.

    Anyone on PS3 please add Samzoix, I'm Interested in trading and doing missions together thanks.

    Aim for the head, use cover, use skills like decoy / cloak, etc. I have seen more complaints that it is too easy than it is too hard.

    money, salvage (the green stuff for buying keys / crafting), items, keys, xp.

    As for what they are, as you say they are events which pop up where you complete set objectives (destroy a crystal, kill mobs, etc).

    There is no camo option.

    Each item has specific mod slots, you can add mod slots the same way you add mods (as long as the item is not currently equipped in any loadout)

    There are 2-3 vehicle vendors on the map, other vendors can have vehicles as the "special items" which change every 60 mins.

    Render distyance needs to be addressed, this is my biggest annoyance right now (closely followed by the chat system).

    I see no reason why not.

    Fine as it is, achievements which require you to spend time achieving things. If you want them quicker then buy them in the cash shop (subject to availability).

    Thanks for your feedback, I now know why I can customize my fav gun! Lemme just u equip it!!!

    Launchers in 6v6 are absurd mainly the sticky grenade launcher, you can kill anyone and just doge shots then detonate.

    If you could tell me your annoyance of the chat system that'll be great I have some problems with it but mainly the fact that I couldn't here my ground talk last night and no one on consoles uses the chat box.

    Chat issues are mainly the console conversion nature - tiny chat window which displays a new message for a couple of seconds before it fades away. In addition the fact that voice chat refuses to remain disabled, very annoying when on an external VOIP and have awful quality ingame VOIP blaring over my speakers too.

    re: launchers - sticky grenades glow - don;t stand next to them while the enemy dodges your shots. Roll away as soon as they land, or even beforehand.

    IMO cloak & pump-action shotty > > > > > launchers anyway.

    1.lol, yah they did upgrade the baddies.
    2.Arkfalls are a world event where their is more characters from the server to group an kill creatures in that area (just stay an run with the group til its all over, there is alot of them sometimes, or just 1) but they drop scrip($$), gear - you have to piickup by pressing the square button, an exp.
    3. yah I was lost too. I dont think there is any camo. certain wpns can be modded (it will tell you when you try), an only if its not equiped in either of your loadouts(learned the hard way). go to the bottom of the list an there is usually 2 or 3 choices - add mod or what have you. then when you are ready you have to go to the bottom of the page an it says start mod upgrade.
    4. there are some links in the forums under general that will link to the whats an where you can find certain vehicles. an yes some are secret, until you open them and some are pre order only from certain places.
    as of Shadow War I have no clue, the inv object is like any mmo-the scene catches up with you, an the lag probably is the issue
    in comp I have seen the same said about launchers. and until its heard about an reported ppl will always do whatever they can to "Win" even if it means utilizing/exploiting use of wpns that are OP in a pvp setting. The pursuits, well they need a challenge. Happy Hunting an Best of Luck!

    Three bits of advice I will give you:

    Dodge: Wait for them to chunk their grenade/glob of goo/rocket/etc. and dodge out of the impact zone. Then fire at them while they reload or get a bead on you to fire again. Look for patterns for when you have an opening and time to shoot/aim.

    Hide: Always have cover nearby to recharge your shield. If they start flanking you, you might need to fall back to other cover.

    Shield: Try to get a shield that works for you. I would recommend a Respark for PvE.

    Also, if you are slowed or on fire, rolling will put it out. Rolling is so very useful!

    You just have to get lucky and find it as a drop or on sale as a special. The hellbug Arkfalls with the crystals seem to drop a lot of shields.

    With shields you have to look at three things:

    Max shield
    How long it takes to start recharging
    How long it takes to charge up

    I think ironclad takes 9 seconds to start recharging? That means you have to be behind cover for 9 seconds without being hit for 9 seconds. That is often very hard to do. Resparks have the lowest max shield value, but start recharging in 2 seconds. So you just pop behind cover for 2 seconds, and you recharge very quickly.

    Partly it depends how you play and what you are doing.

    For PvP I would likely focus on shield size, but for PvE the Respark offers something like 40% regen after 3 seconds.

    Quick regen and good use of cover will make you much tougher than high shield in the open.
