Hackers, Could They Be Gone?

WORTHLESS?
  
Hello guys, today I wanted to talk about hackers.  I know, I know, I hate them too.  And I used to think it was crazy how Nexon could allow so many people to abuse their game.  But these past few days after Nexon announced they would be taking action, I have yet to see a single hacker. I know what you're thinking, "could this be the end?".  I think no, but I believe there will be a lot less and shorter living hackers.  I mean, you couldn't completely get rid of them.  If people can hack into the Nation Government, i'm pretty sure they could hack Combat Arms.  But that's not the point here, the point is, you won't be seeing them as often, and that's all that really matters.  That's all I really care about.  I don't know, have you seen any obvious hackers lately? If you have, tell me so I can see if what i'm talking about is really true.

New Map: Costa Recon

Sitrep: The insurgent forces are tipped off that their supply outpost, OP Slaven 152, is in danger, and decide their supplies must be relocated. Unfortunately, the military detects their relocation efforts. Now the insurgents must secure their supplies by either blowing them up or moving them before the imminent military raid.

I know Costa Recon has been out for a while now, but I would like to give you my thoughts on the newest map. We haven't seen a tropical map in a while. The last couple have been Urban.  But Costa Recon is probably the most tropical in Combat Arms, besides Dark Forest or that one map with a plane haha.  Anyways, I really like this map.  Especially for sniping.  It's perfect for sniping across the map.  If you get on one of the roofs, you can easily get about 10 kills in one life.
There is basically two parts to this map, the beach, and the warehouses and buildings.  The beach is great for getting sniped.  Anyone running along the beach is almost guaranteed to get sniped.  It sure has happened to me a lot.  Also, if you can make it through the beach, it is the fastest way to get to the other team's base, but it's not really likely unless you have no snipers allowed.  The buildings is a slower, but safer way to get through the map, but watch out for snipers on the roof.  On top of the warehouses is a great place to snipe because you are able to see people running through the buildings and the beach.  You are also able to duck down quick if you are being shot at.
I think this map is great for CTF because of it's size and shape, but that's just my opinion.  This is a map that is actually a lot of fun to play on.  But I really do recommend a sniper, or a gun with a scope such as the G36E for the counter snipers.  That's about all I can say about it.  And if my computer didn't suck so much, I would be able to record a video and commentary on it, but it get's way too laggy

Sad Face

 I'm back and I'm sorry.  I haven't had a post in a while, and I really feel bad about it.  These past few weeks have been pretty hectic for me with basketball and school.  BUT!  I AM BACK!

I'd like to talk about what's been going down in Combat Arms recently...

Now, you can buy the Shapka and Tiger Strider in the shop!  Isn't that exciting?  Also, if you buy now, you get free GP!  Exactly how much depends on how long you buy these items for... The Shapka comes in 30 day and 90 day lengths.  If you get it for 30 days, it's a 1,000 free GP, 90 days is 3k GP. The Tiger Strider only comes in the length of 90 days and 3k bonus GP.  So go out and buy your Russian Beanie hat and Boomerang now!

Nexon comes out with a "Zero Tolerance Hack Policy".  What this basically means is, everyone's accounts have been totally wiped out and deleted, regardless if you are a hacker or not...I'm just joking you!  What it actually means is Nexon finally realized how many hackers there are in Combat Arms and how much of a problem it is.  This means there will be "Large scale punitive(whatever that means) actions being taken on a regular basis, including permanent bans".  Lots of big words in there haha.  I hope to never see another hacker again!

My Clan is almost a level 3!  If you don't know about my clan, it's called .NikE  Me and my friends started it and it's pretty awesome.  You should go apply for it now if you want to be cool like me(because i'm cool).

Compensation for the Downtime on 2/21!  Nexon is practically rewarding people for making Combat Arms better.  If you didn't know, there was a two hour maintenance fix thing on the 21st.  All guns that were active that day are now extended for 24 hours during the next maintenance.  Hooray!  There will also be 2x EXP and GP on Saturday from 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm PST!

How I Get Free NX

I don't have a lot of money haha. It's true. Even though I wish I could,  i'm not able to just go out and by NX whenever I want :( Therefore in order to review guns in Combat Arms I have to rely on a free option.
    I have tried to do those god awful surveys that Nexon has up on their website.  I haven't gotten a single one to validate, what a rip off!  I guess putting your name as McLovin and making your address 12345 Poopstreet just doesn't cut it.
  1.      Sign Up  What I do to get my NX is use a website called Swagbucks.  You've probably heard about it and maybe even have an account already.  Check it out at this Link (This is a referral link, if you would like to help the blog out, please sign up here)  If you're a jerk and don't want to help me out just search Swagbucks in google.(Don't take this too seriously, I just want you to know a way to help contribute to the blog)
  2. Earn Swagbucks  I really like how this website works.  The whole point is to get "Swagbucks".  These can be attained in many ways.  For example you can search the web, watch videos, play games(I'll bet my readers like that), and a lot of other things.  The site is constantly adding new things. In my opinion searching is the easiest way.
  3.     First let me tell you about one of my personal experiences with Nexon and my whole getting free NX.  You might not know this and you might not care, but a while ago, Nexon accepted Ultimate Gaming Cards.  Ultimate Gaming Cards are like NX cards but UGC cards can be used in many other games too.  Then, they stopped accepting them... OMG NEXON WTF? WHY?  Nobody really knows why.  All I know is that it made my free NX gettingism harder.  It really isn't a big deal, it's just more complicated.  You see, I would earn SBs, spend them on UGCs and have codes instantly emailed to me.  I would redeem them and VOILA! Free NX in teh pocket. Oh Yeah!  Those were good times, but now I have to get Amazon E-Gift Cards and have and spend the gift cards on actual physical cards. Which sucks, but hey, it's free and free makes me happy.
  4. Spend the Swagbucks If you want NX the easiest way to do this is buy Amazon E-Gift Cards.  Accumulate these until you have enough for a card.  Buy the card, it will be shipped to you.  Validate the card online and you now have free NX congrats!  Sounds like a lot of work doesn't it?  Well when you actually do it, it's really is nothing.  Just get the bucks and you'll get the (Something that has to do with NX that rhymes with bucks).  If you want to redeem anything else just but it and it will be shipped to you.


   
    Guys, I hope this helped you out.  I'll be giving out more tips like these often so subscribe and have a nice day.  Also, please sign up under my referral link. http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/TheHuntsman It really does take a lot of time to keep this blog consistent.

Combat Arms News (Sept 28-Feb 2)

  As I said before, I will be bringing you guys news and updates for Combat Arms.  This will be the very first installment of the CAFB News!
Funny how they have sharks in the background.  Click the image for a link to my review.

  •  XM-8 IS BACK! First of all, some very recent news is that the XM-8 has come back out of preview!  There is a catch though, the permanent duration is only available for 2 weeks only as of today February 2nd.  I suggest reading my review and trying to pick this weapon up before buying it.


  • Cramming for Exams Event Over Hopefully you heard about this event before this post and were able to get in 100 games between Jan 21st-Jan 31st.  If you did, congratulations you get 7 Grey Hisec keys, and 8 Black keys.  If you didn't hopefully you got at least 50, that would give you 7 Grey Hisec keys.  I have over 30 cases in my inbox and I wouldn't mind getting rid of a few of them haha.


  • New Specialist Weapon: Caltrops The Caltrops, the new specialist weapon has been released.  It comes with a bonus 2 Slot License for free!  After watching some demonstrations of the weapon on youtube,  it seems the caltrops is a trap.  It is supposed to "cause severe bleeding and slow down your enemy".  From the video I saw, it looked like it didn't do very much damage, but i'll be you could stack them and combo them together.  Price- 2.9k nx 7 days, and 5.9k nx for 30 days.(2 slot license only with 30 days Caltrops)




  • Create A Map Contest This is one of the best events that I have seen Combat Arms.  Nexon is actually letting you submit an idea for a new map in Combat Arms!  This means that if your idea wins, you get not only your map in the game, but rewards!  Actually, that's not the only person that get rewards.  Every eligible participant gets a Kalika Case.  The 2 Semi Finalists get 50k nx, and the 3 finalists get 100k.  The top 3 finalists will have their idea put on the Combat Arms facebook page and will be voted on for the winner.  I looked at the forums at ideas being submitted, and I saw some really cool ones.  I think a map made to be a University would be pretty cool, but that's just my opinion.  What would be funny is map on the moon with mountains and low gravity and stuff. OMG DID I JUST GET A MIDAIR NUTSHOT??!!





  • In other news, I finally got my KDR to 1.00!  I've been around the .98-.99 the whole time I've played this game, so I feel so accomplished!  Also...THE PACKERS ARE GOING TO BEAT THE STEELERS IN THE SUPER BOWL! YEAH BUDDY! Sorry I didn't know my caps was on :)
