Anyone can log in to Blacklight Retribution? it seems failed to connect to the server when after log in page.. it state as server not found?

no problem leh, can login & play.

its stated failed to connect to the server after the triangle thing crash.

Both US and EU works fine over here, try to reconnect your internet or check around got anything wrong?

This made me laugh until tears came out

This game can be great fun, but the latest patch....

- control glitch, can't scope, cant HRV
- HRV empty on spawn, or anytime
- sudden switch weapon
- invisible weapon after revive
- probably some no-recoil bug too... WTF can you shoot a SMG over 100meter with 100% hit?

The scoping also broken I can't aim sometimes after HRV, and I get constant memory leak than ever after patch.
On the bright side, the ping is nicer compared to pre-patch. I think they added AUS server then?

Help!!!!

I installed this game last weekend and until now, still can't open it. Tried few times and no response from my laptop.

Anyone knows what happen?

You probably want to search for help over here instead: http://blacklight-forum.perfectworld.com/

After messing around with all the available guns it seems that i can only use the Burning Sensation...

That gun do have good stats especially low recoil... but low damage, but bigger bullet spread... tried that gun just now, not like it much. I best get back to my custom made...

Hi all...
Just start playing this game since yesterday...
This game is quite fun and exciting...
Currently on Level 4...
The guns aren't that expensive...
Can use GP to buy and can earn GP easily...
Hopefully there will be Asia server and have players in it....
Add me on steam if you want...

Btw is there anyway other than buying real cash in getting loadout 2???
I have to stick to the same gun every round of game..

Loadout 2 will unlock later for free on level 5. The rest you'll need to buy with zen. But 2 should be pretty enough, one snipe build, one close combat build

The most important thing- don't spend much of your GP on earlier level. You'll get free 3-days tryout for everything (hope you looked your mail and inventory). After you get the hang on those customization, then you can start investing in permanent purchase of your favorite gears.

Note: a lot of bugs after last week's patch =x

any good recommendation on custom weapon? thinking assault/combat/sub-machine gun

yeah was about to ask the same question.. i tried to customize and it come out with a bad result LOL

Well, as long as you understand specific needs for each types of weapon, and your personal requirements...

- always ADS (aim down sight), regardless how good your gun, no aim = bad hit. This game not working like the other FPS... even if I hold my sniper 1m right in front of target, if no ADS, the bullet spread like crazy flies, and not hitting anything... well this is the thing people complaint the most-.-
- what is recoil? basically recoil cause your aim going up, if you're using burst or sniper (bolt action), recoil won't be a big concern
- what is accuracy (bullet spread for example), the reason I dislike the [Burning Sensation] (mentioned above) pre-made is the freaking 1.08 DEGREE ADS spread... with custom made I have my burst assault rifle on absolutely ZERO degree. The larger the spread, the harder to get hit on wider distance.
- starting gears are NOT sucks! Some of them are pretty good.
- don't running around with lees than 210HP... especially on sniping map (OffShore, Containment, SeaPort). But you'll likely die on one shot anyway if the sniper use 200max-damage + incinerate bullet, or head shot.
- scope, this is one important thing... Experiment till you find one suit you the most. I love that blue halo-sight (no border, low zoom power, no "flashing") most of the time, and a very long range 4.00 zoom scope for sniping (it is slow, though)

I use bolt action (snipe) most of the time, since I likely to play on wide open map. Not really tuning my assault rifle (burst) much.

As for side arm (secondary), the shotgun is pretty damn... useless. Better go for other builds, if you love spraying then go for pistol or machine pistol, otherwise go for magnum (attach a proper scope and you can use it to snipe as well.....)

If you haven't noticed it already, there will be a "chit chit chit" sound appear whenever your bullet hit your target. You CAN calculate those hits even with a fast shooting gun- 1,2,3,4,5... (if your ear is not too slow). Usually the target should be dead after 5 shots (5x50=250damage)... unless your gun has way too low damage.

interesting advice...thx.
Was wondering how sometimes I get instant death and the enemy was using the same type of weapon. Though it could be the lag. Every game I get 200+ms lag.

Finally got myself to Lv29 and unlocked incineration (burn) ammo -.-... Freaking hard to level (grind grind grind, frag frag frag)...

But... burning ammo = 70% damage up front, 40% DoT = snipe 140 damage up front, 80 DoT = total damage 220, pretty useless on target over 220 HP anyway ("tank build", usually 250, not sure if can get more)

So far not feeling so well with that ammo, since it not deliver all damage at once, that DoT delay may get myself killed instead.

sacrifice stamina and running speed for tank build then? I suppose that's good for some match types except flag capture

yea some modes especially Domination & King of the Hill (basically secure a randomized single spot) require a lot of running.
usually I am too lazy to play those Personally much prefer DM/TDM.
However tank build doesn't means godlike anyway, it simply allows you to eat one or two more bullets.
