Just seeing if anyone is going to be around tonight, late. I've gotten into POE again and found a 24/7 Siegeo of Mukatan/Stalingrad (My 2 favs on POE) server that is alot of fun 66.17.245.197:15567.
Some POE or whatever
-
#1 -
#2 New POE patch released, 3.2 to 4.2 -
#3 That's a strange version jump..... -
#4 They radically changed the accuracy of the rifles and gave them iron sites along with throwing in a couple of new rifles. 4-5 new maps. I'm still getting used to the iron sites and the lack of accuracy with the rifles unless you use the iron sites but its stilll agreat mod. You need a good machine to run it though, alot of peeps complaining about lag but I didn't have too much of a prob.
Here's the change log:http://www.pointofexistence.com/fullchangelog.php -
#5 What the F is up with everyone wanting to add Iron sights..... they blow -
#6 From what I can tell from the POE forums it seems like alot of people were asking for them before the patch but hate them now. The probs: you switch to iron sights but get no zoom feature, the recoil and size of the sights make it hard to track your target and the lack of accuracy is comical at times. I do however, love the little red dot instead of the crosshairs. Also , alot of peeps seem to be claiming that BF2 will have iron sites so we should learn to live with them now. -
#7 I'm switching to online checkers -

I can beat you at THAT -
#9 Ok got the new POE, kind of POS really. Those Iron sights blow, no zoom you just lose 1/3 of your screen.
I especially like it when you get shot while using the real-estate hog, you go from iron to standard view as you get hit. ..... great feture.... :roll:
Game still plays well, just grab vehicles and leave the ground fighting to others. -
#10 I use the Scar and the AKS74 (special forces weapons) and have had the most sucess with and w/out the iron sights. The C4 w/ these weapons can be used like a grenade also. it took a little time but I'm actually getting used to the iron sights and they're pretty effective at long range. -
#11 POE just patched to 4.4 now.
Added a small red dot on un-zoomed mode... Which helps allot.
Added a new map or 3.
The biggest plus in my opinion....
_Added MLRS Cluster Munitions And Efx
_Added SP-Arty Cluster Smoke Efx
Holy crap is it scary to be on the receiving end of a multi-cluster multi-missile MLRS barrage now.
And the smoke from the arty is bad ass for covering an attack.
It lasts for about 1 min and there is no maximum shell amount like a smoke grenade.
IE with smoke grenade, the 1st one disappears when you throw trow the 4th one.
NOT with arty.
I layered a barrage for a full 60 seconds and the smoke just kept getting deeper and thicker....
It rocked.
With a team tactic, sniper for spotting a smoke barrage and MLRS multi-warhead on an enemy main.....
Arty will be the god of war like it should be!
Anyone else beside EJ and myself play POE???? -
#12 I've played it a few times, but not recently. Ephil used to play quite a bit back in the day, but he hasn't been around much either.
