Man, what timing. I check back in after ... well, forever -- and Monkman just happened to mention me in the last post.
1) I freak'n miss my Damned bros! This platform launch is killing me. That said, I might be able to squeeze in a session or two before the office opens here. Do me a favor -- PM me if there is a big game or GL match coming soon. I'll try to check in at least enough to catch my PMs regularly.
2) I have a little insider info on GTA5. An engineer I worked with is close friends with a developer at R* in NY. That developer is close friends with a number of people working on the GTA5 title in engineering. Yes, yes, there are a few degrees of separation, but I'm actually pretty sure of this information mainly because of how protective the NY engineer is of the R* North team and their NDA bonuses.
Anyway, there's a real internal battle right now over the launch date. The executive team and business units are extremely anxious to put the title out by the holidays and are pushing for a fall release (maybe October?). But the development team is pretty adamant it can't be done for what's been planned.
With every conversation I have with my source, I fit in a question about TMW and whether there will be some form of it in GTA5. He always responds annoyed and explains he doesn't know anything about it. But in this last conversation, he paused and said, "I knew you'd ask me about that again. Let's just say there is some things I've heard that will make you very happy." The bastard really stuck to his guns on not telling me any more, but I'm going to let a little bit of hope stream into my heart for TMW -- or whatever new form it is to take.

Ahhh A timely entrance m8
Good to see you back bro.
Its business as usual but since youve been gone (since you ve been gone im outta my head cant take it!!!! lol ) weve been having battles with Highway reapers...we won,The MMD.. we won and keeping the French at bay. Also theres a group calling themself plague appearing every 3rd week or so.Weve been having some fights with them. We could use a good air man against them as its no holds bard... anything goes. We want these guys in thier place.With the usual suspects running the ground and you keeping the heavens clear there no way they will topple the giants of TMW that TDMC have become.
Ill let you know of any business that might come up
Rather than double post I thought i throw in the fact that Gogokilla has improved a great deal. I know hes not everyone`s cup of tea with his moaning and mind games but I have a bit of respect for him.He doesnt give up from the games ive been in and he admits when members of his team are acting the c*nt.There a worthy opponent there and he has player he can invite.I had one game last night it was me v gogo v a French guy and two noobs. The noobs left half way through and i took the W with a 2 k lead but Gogo probably beat me in the head to head.His drive by is dangerous now.

I messaged trabet a week or two back, asking if he's still in the damned. He said 'for life'. I then messaged back to him that you (aj) had tried to message him a few times with no replies, he didn't message me back. I feel like a grass
lol
trabet is a very cool guy, he might not be into the whole forum stuff, hence his inactivity, he seems to play a lot of games beside GTA too, anyways hope he returns, same with theclefe, hope nothing is wrong there, he's suddenly disappeared!
Trabet is a great guy.
He is already Colonel 24 in BF3! -------------------------------
So whats up guys? How is life going?
I would like to have aj playing bf3 next weekend if his lady allows to do so. I ain't going to get MP3, because game just doesn't fit my style of gameplay. I will stick with BF3 until march of 2013 or even more until Gta V is released.
The same thing that happened to me 8 years ago happened to me this year. In 2004 I felt in love with Gta series by playing Vice City, I couldn't stop loving this series. Now it is with Battlefield series. I dunno, it is something from the inside, the awesomeness of doing things that you wouldn't be able to do in life out of army.
When I first heard this song, I had an wargarsm:
Thats it. No one will be able to stop me from playing Battlefield games now.

Epic games last night! Especially that last one. If there's anything better than two teams going head to head its a three way battle!. Im still in shock as to how we won it! Me, Monk, prototype and summary. Target 10k
Im sure that red team had 7k to our 2k at one point in the game. It was right about the time of the 'deliver the packages' mission. They were just getting kill after kill and had dominated that corner area in Bohan. I was hesitant at first going into the mix for the packages, i would have been ripped to shreds. But i realised those guys were just camping for kills. So i couldnt just wait for the next mission. I managed to get 3-4 kills of the red team by hiding in the bushes (not my finest hour).
Then came the deciding missions, Throwing the heads in the water. We near enough had one head each on our team. I got to mine, i was driving to it but fell awkwardly as i left my car, it seemed to take a lifetime for my character to get up my nerves were on edge! They were solid opponents and we were about to make a very unlikley comeback. We had 9.96k they had 9.7, then our Monk got a decicive kill
AJ, zdan you missed a classic

Outstanding Kaiser thats all I can say. Where the f*ck did that Red team come from? Ive seen one or two them before but the had more quality than I expected.
I told you its possible even 5 k down lol. That red team must have felt the way Man u felt on the last day lol. It was a display of pure heart and will to win. Not tidy by any means but very satisfying to come away with that. They were by no means mugs... Brotherhood 10000000 had my number for most of the game but just as I said in my earlier posts who got the W???. Some of it was crafty.I managed to escape a couple of times with a mission that I should not have got. Late on the game I stopped looking at the cash as I was chasing brotherhood to get the head off him but he got it in the drink. I took him out then the noob that was in the blue team. I wanted to get gogo last but you cant always get what you want. Those guys left straight away after the game they know they gave their all and we still pulled it out of the fire. I cant praise my teammate`s high enough. Proto was a little down with his performance but we needed everybody to make that happen. Me and proto beat gogo`s team again in the last game before I went off lol. Gogo was man of the match but It wasent enough to take the W.I think he wanted to leave on a high....No luck .
Brilliant lads...."Id buy that for a Doller"
Roll out!!!!

I had to send that brotherhood guy a message, saying he was unlucky and it was a very good game. He was grateful for it. But i know if hes anythimg like us he would be pissed. He was awesome in that game.
At least there's more competition out there than plague! Rocket users
Well in guys, despite not being there, and ultimately very disappointed to have missed out on the action, so great to read you pulled it out of the bag like that, that's what I like about TMW compared to other modes, games feel like continuous battles, and even when losing badly there is still every chance with a bit of luck and a lot of skill / team work that you can still win like that.
I'm honoured to be a part of this group of players, I'd say at our best, we're unbeatable.
Gogokilla get's my respect for not being a quiter, and not being another frenchie AA'er, but he is still a moany little bitch at times, eg. kick mir he's cheating using a chopper in Bohan , kick FUGA he's camping in Turf War , good player but wrong attitude at times.
Today I had to take the girlfriend to university, for her last ever exam, if she's passed, she will now be a qualified Dietitian, so if anyone ever needs nutritional advice , let me know! It's a pain though, I'm not fat but I do enjoy the guilty pleasure of bacon for breakfast, the odd chocolate bar and pizza/beer combination a lot, when she's not around those eating habits and the gaming come in full flow, lol...yes I become a full out slob!
This Tuesday is a make or break day for me, a police assessment centre at 8.20am, if I impress I'll be heading towards more indepth interviews, fitness tests and Welsh tests, fail and I'll be back to square one and looking for a job of some sort , fingers crossed I do well, I'm nervous, but at the same time confident.
The welsh tests should be fine though, since taking lessons I've picked it up quite well, it's such a laugh, I'm the only young guy in the class, the others are pensioners who keep forgetting stuff, the female teacher, asked the class, how do you say, "Do you have a family"? , one replied, "dach chi isio deulu?" meaning "Do you want a family?" I laughed so hard, luckily the teacher did too
-----
Anyways after next Tuesday, expect two things, ajbns87 back on PSN and The Damned MC topic updated here. Also look out for a TMW event / challenge.
------
Lastly Zdanz, i miss you amigo, I will try to come this Saturday, but it might be very short, and I hate to only play one hour, it's not enough time for bf3, but fingers crossed the Saturday after I will play for atleast 3 straight hours with you, TDMC platoon blowing sh*t up together like old times (i.e. me getting killed / distracting, and you laying the C4 like a ninja )
+EDIT Music fans, Stone Roses reunited last night, playing an unannounced gig in Warrington, If I had been quicker to find out I might of gone.

Rough night for me last night. That Algonquin game pissed me off no end.I thought me and Aj fought well enough but we got swamped and the spawn was akward.There was always going to get games like that once in a while but I just could not get up to speed with too many players on form and HYPER not even trying to do the missions. I wish aa players would just f*ck off if they dont like the settings. Refresh my mind. We had a game in Algonquin then we went to Bohan for 3 games is that correct? Or was it two games in Bohan?What was the outcome of the first Bohan game.? I jumped to my own team last second as I feel that Bohan was going to be crowded which ruins it.So if I was going down im going down alone but with extra cash . Kaiser and I stormed into a 5 k lead in the 2nd or 3rd game (was that the same game?) but gogo and his friend made it longer than it should have been.Twolex in disgiuse made it difficult too.Good player strong in the driveby.The 4th game was a bit of a farce it eventually wittled down to just me v Kaiser.
As for the gta V.Half of the people in those posts are not even old enough to buy the game. I hate them .

Even rougher for me, absolute sh*te, sorry Monk, I felt like I was letting you down when it was just us 2.
Glad the Greasepalms and the frenchies won though, least it wasn't the lagging kickers Hyp3r, i hate to go on about it, but I swear he (Volttz) teleported, his character stopped shooting, and then appeared behind my vehicle, like a magic trick.

Guys what sucks is gta 4 servers. They are laggy as hell, you get disconnections so often! what I hate is when you think you killed or run over someone just for them to appear behind you today it happened to me, I was shooting the boss' car and he jumped out, so I slowed down to cope with the lag, but the f*cker suddenly hit my car (wtf) and then flied 20 meters in front of me, and stayed still so I decided to shoot him and run him over, just for him to teletransport right behind me and kill me. It happens so much, along with the disconnections.
V better have dedicated servers, and more control when you are online, so if you are expectating for example you can look for another game without going to single player, or when the game gets stuck etc. Has it always been this buggy? when I started playing a few months ago it wasn't that bad, but lately it has gotten worse

I have seen this happen so many times. I couldn't even put a number on it. You hit someone with the car and see them fall just to find them shooting you from the side or back of the car!! Yet every time I get hit, I tumble 150 yards and take 5 minutes to get back up! It's very irritating
Stonehead AoG, and HD, I presume you're all more interested in American sports? what teams do you guys support if any?
Also theclefe, not signed on PSN in 4 weeks, nor here in ages where are you?
I don't really pay attention to international sports; maybe only the FIFA World Cup. I root for wrestling, baseball, hockey, football and basketball; the American-Canadian leagues, of course. I support any New York teams, but my favorite clubs are the Yankees (baseball), the Rangers (hockey), the Giants (football) and the Knicks (basketball). As for wrestling, I only root for the WWF-era superstars, like Kane and The Undertaker. There ain't many of them left, but they will always be better than the sh*tballs they have currently.
I'm started to get worried about Clefe. He hasn't even reported to The Department topic. I hope he's alright; wherever he may be.
I don't pay much attention to any sports except football (American) college and pro. Cleveland Browns and Notre Dame Fighting Irish are my teams of choice. I played baseball when I was young, but never really watched it on TV much. I love the way you guys get into soccer though.
Lol got to love American sports team names, Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football teams here, don't have the best of nicknames, The Reds, The Toffee's lol, I guess Wolves are the exception though.
As for lag, tell me about it, you get ran over you're dead, you run someone over whilst under your wheels you get killed or it takes your character half a day to stand up. Anyways against some players, it wasn't like that, I was simply doing a driveby, and felt sure I got the kill because he stopped shooting, next thing I know the player was behind me, and I was dead. GTA V will definitely have better servers I'm sure.

Mir, thanks for sharing that info your friend mentioned, good luck with your latest platform, hope we're all able to get online together soon.

Also whilst I'm far from being into the whole "fantasy" sort of stuff, I have got absolutely hooked on this TV show Game of Thrones, anyone else watching it? Well worth seeing.

Hey, guys. How are all of you?
I apologize for my recent inactivity lately. I've been busy with studying for exams and doing household chores (because everything in the loft decided to break within the last week), so I've haven't had much time to turn on my PS3 and play.
Good to see you back, Mir. Glad that you had the chance to gain some info regarding GTA V. Thanks for sharing.
Is there any word on our GL match with the Sons of War? If not, should we start scheduling?
I don't think they even exist anymore to be honest.
Meaning our next games could well be against The Yardies.
I'm about to log on PSN for some bf3 / GTA.
AJ, I have a question. How do I know when we have a match scheduled? You mentioned our next could be against The Yardies. What is our time difference? I think Paul is 5 hours ahead of me...I think. My wife works Sunday and Monday, so I'll probably be playing those nights. Hope to see some fellow players online.
I did get a chance to play a game with Paul and Andrew this past week. We came from behind to win in the end. Gogokilla was on the opposite team
I will be on gta 4 tonight .... Sorry ive been practice in the buzzard lately ..... also been playing DiRT Showdown on my pc .. Awesome Game Worth Getting
Prospects Feel Free To add me on ---- Muffin_Man_48 -- Would be great to see how good you are and your abilities.
