So, as I said previously, I made it to master prestige in BO2. Unfotunately I found it to be quite boring....so I reset all of my stats and prestiges ands started over again. I figured I would try for a higher K/D ratio etc.
So far, it has gone pretty well. My K/D ratio is at 1.17 so far (which I got it up to yesterday after starting out rather slowly at a 0.90 k/d ratio the day before. I was at 1.05 while in Master Prestige. It probably would have been higher, but I spent a bunch of time trying to gold SMGs and I was pretty terrible with them. Anywhere between a .60 and .79 with the.
I have also been playing a good amount of Hardcore Domination. I usually just sit back with a LMG and protect the points from a distance as well as I can. Some of the maps, I feel like I do terribly. The worst by far is Nuketown. I am really growing to hate that map. There are so many people there just randomly wall banging and shit. And then when I do have a good match there and we are just about to win, someone from my team runs in from on my line of fire, gets themselves killed, and I am the one to get booted. Hooray!!
I run with the LSAT as that is my favorite LMG ever. I also have a great love for engineer since I have been using carepackages. So many times already, I have turned an RC or a Hunter Killer Drone into a Drone Escort or a Chopper. Being able to switch your care package is awesome.

Marvel Heroes first Impressions
Last night I logged into Marvel Heroes for the first time. I decided to go with Thing as my starting hero. I ended up getting Scarlet Witch as my second random hero.....the one that I least wanted. But that is ok.
The game itself it quite a bit of fun. You get quests, and run around and smash bad guys. Most of the bosses are done in a group, but with enough patience, you can probably solo some of them as well. I ended up soloing "The Hood" last night when the rest of the group bailed before we even got to him.
I also got to play a bit with my friend Kev (who is playing Iron Man currently, but also got Cyclops and Colossus). It was good fun just running around and smashing bad guys. The only part so far that has been a frustration is that my inventory seems to fill up way too fast.
Thing is now level 11 and I will be getting around to buying the Hulk on Friday most likely.

Marvel Heroes out today!
For those of you who did not buy any kind of founders pack (myself included), today is the first day of Marvel Heroes!
It is a free to play ARPG much in line with Diablo. You can buy a hero with real money, or you can start with one of 5 free heroes which include Thing, Daredevil, Hawkeye, Storm, and the Scarlet Witch. You get a second random one of the 5 free heroes at the end of the tutorial.
I am planning on at least buying the Incredible Hulk.
I like that both heroes and costumes can drop for you, which makes it so that you dont really have to spend any money at all if you don't want to.
One of my friends bought the Iron Man back which comes with a bunch of costumes. I think another of my friends may end up getting Deadpool if he does in fact play the game. I think I may get my wife to play as well, even though she insists she wants to be Jarvis from the Iron Man movies. I told her she could just stand behind our friend playing Iron Man and make comments about his playing.
Anyways, its a free smash em up. I will be checking is out asap.

Warhammer Quest and more Blacklight
Warhammer Quest:
When I was about 12 or so, I got a game called Warhammer Quest. It was a fantasy game based in the Warhammer universe similar to Hero Quest. They discontinued making the game, but I have been able to play it with my wife and friends as an adult. Then something amazing happened.....they released Warhammer Quest for the Apple IoS. Having just gotten and Ipad, this was a must get. I must say that it is GLORIOUS.
It stays very true to the board game and you even get some quests in each small village. The game itself is 4.99, and it was released with an expansion for an additional 4.99. You can also buy three additional characters for 2.99 each I believe. The one that I will be purchasing today is the Trollslayer. I have long loved the Trollslayer as a character and lore wise. They are basically a Dwarf who was shamed for one reason or another, who decides that the only way to redeem themselves is through an honorable death. They tatoo themselves, and make their hair into huge orange mohawks. They do not wear any armor, and wade into the thickest part of battle with the baddest monster they can find. Even though they seek death, they still fight to win. They will only be slain by the most badass of enemies.
If you love Warhammer, give the game a shot. You start with a Marauder, Dwarf Ironbreaker, Elf Ranger, and Grey Wizard. You can purchase the Trollslayer, Warrior Priest, and Archmage as additional characters.
Blacklight:
As the title of the thread implies, I have been playing a decent amount of blacklight, and I have my K/D ratio just about back at 1.0 after a rather slow start while getting used to things.
If you like shooters, this one is a ton of fun. It runs well on my not so top of the line computer and has a lot of fun game modes.
I personally like the one called something like "Netcode"....it is something with Net, but I forget which. You basically have to go capture points and hold them, while trying to grab a flag and bring them back to the base that you are currently holding. Think Eye of the Storm in WoW, only you lose a base over time if you do not have someone there.
You can either purchase items with Zen, which I believe you purchase with real money, or you can gain gp, which you get by playing. So far, I have permanently purchaed and upgraded chest armor and got a seven day rental on a cool SMG.
I just need to look at some of the other controls. I have been doing pretty well winging it, but I still dont even know how to crouch or prone. I also need to figure out how to put attachments on my armor as I have two open slots and no idea what to do with them.
Between the two of these, I have been having quite a lot of fun.
World of Warcraft:
I am not currently subscribed, but my wife still is. She just got her Trycerratops mount. I may end up resubbing to WoW, just so she has someone to play with. Who would have thought a few years back that my wife would be the last man standing in WoW?

Blacklight and Master Prestige.
So, I gave Blacklight a shot last night after finally letting it patch all the way. It was quite a bit of fun and looked/played very well, especially for being a free to play shooter.
In my very first game, I was top score which I found to be hilarious. The second map did not turn out as well as I got killed by several snipers and some guys who ended up in a big robot suit.
I had a lot of fun in those two games and plan on playing again soon.
In other news, I got to Master Prestige in BO2. It took quite a long time, but it is finally done. This is the first time I have ever made it to a top prestige in any CoD game.
If you have not tried out Blacklight, give it a shot. It is free and you can download it off of steam.

Marvel Heroes
Unfortunately, I have not gotten into the Beta for this, but the one person who I know that has, says it is freaking awesome.
He said that it is basically like D3 meets Superheroes which sorta meets LoL.
The game play is like Diablo. Only with superheroes.
It is actually a free to play game, but you have to buy additional characters/costumes if you want them.
I don't know who you start with, but when i try out the game, the first name on my list will be The Incredible Hulk.
If you get a chance, check out the gameplay trailers and maybe even sign up on their site.

The Diablo 3 changes are fun!
I got a chance to play a bit of D3 over the weekend, and had a very good time running public games.
For starters, you get and extra 10 percent XP and MF for each other player in the game up to 30 percent. Also, because it was the one year anniversary of D3, you get an additional 25 percent boost until tomorrow!
The first incredible addition is that they actually added monsters to the other acts. I ran Act 1 a few times and there are now GOBS of monsters. Each run netted me about 4-5 bars of XP. I went from Paragon 55 to nearly Paragon 57 in just about 3-4 runs.
I also grabbed a couple of Legendaries. They were not very good, but it is nice to see that shiny orange stream of light.
Another nice addition is the Tome of Cain that lets you identify all of your rare's in one shot instead of constantly clicking each one to ID it.
Overall, it think it was a pretty good patch.
