Pray for a patch everyone; hopefully, they can right the ship...
Question though -
How do you unlock the attachments slots for the weapons? I want to buy a scope and a suppressor but there's no point in me doing so since I can't attach them anyway.
All you have to do is purchase the attachment you want in the gun locker and it will be unlocked for every applicable weapon. Then when you mod the weapon just select the attachment you want. You don't have to unlock the slots, just purchase the attachments.
Also get the shotgun if you haven't already. Short range but damn near OP in short to medium range. Takes down heavies in 3 shots, every one else in 1-2 if you get a clean shot.
I'm on Xbox and hit the fourth(?) zone and I've got an infinite loading screen. It's time to take it back to gamestop.I'm so fucking irritated at this game right now.
I finally made it to the 3rd district, and while the frame rate was still subpar, it wasn't unbearable to me, especially compared to the 1st two districts. The game was becoming a bit more fun since I had gotten quite a few of the perks unlocked.
But alas, I'm nearing the end of the 3rd district and I get gunned down, hit respawn and I wait, and wait, and wait. It never loads my save. I waited 10 minutes. Closed it and restarted again. Same thing. Restarted my PS4 and still not loading. Just sits on the loading screen indefinitely.
I really tried to give this game a chance, but with the piss poor frame rate, less than adequate shooting, and now this never ending loading screen, I'm done. Trading this in before it completely loses all trade in value.
I'm so disappointed because if this game performed even marginally better, I'd love the hell out of it. It should have been delayed until it was ready.
This game is an absolute mess.
Reload a previous checkpoint. Should fix it from what I read on official forums. Any word on what the patch is supposed to fix? Any update for xb1?So, there is a new patch live (playing on PS4). Problem for me being it seems to break more than it fixes. Loaded the game up to find no icons on the map, barely any enemies in the world, and the floors all having a weird glow to them at times. Closed and relaunched and still the same.
It sucks, I really enjoy large parts of this game. It just seems intent on trying to push me away.
My God, that guy is such a jackass. I wish they'd just put him on gag order for awhile.In response to a poster saying that there has been no news about an update, the community moderator says....
Deep Silver/Dambuster Studios might want to consider promoting someone else. The guy comes across as an fanatical apologist of this game. He acts as though nothing is severely wrong with this game and that its performance is standard for most new releases. It seems like he believes there is some sort of agenda against this game because apparently no one complains as much about other games in the same condition.

Some of the things that will make it into this patch for ALL platforms (unless stated) will include:
The team have all worked tremendously hard and are already working on further patches that will contain even more reported issues and fixes.
- Save Stalls -We have optimised the number of checkpoint save locations throughout the single player campaign. This means that the short ‘pauses’ that the player encounters are reduced and the game will now inform you that it is saving. There will also be further optimisations in an upcoming patch.
- Missing Map Icons - Players who were missing icons after updating to the v1.03 patch should now see their progress restored. You should now be able to continue your game, however there may be some slight inconsistencies with the hearts & minds stats.
- Crash Fixes - We have fixed many crash related issues across all platforms
- Multicore CPU’s (PC) - PC players should now see better performance from their CPU. We fixed an issue that meant multicore CPU’s were not being fully utilised.
Some of these will include:
- SLI Fixes
- Fix for Hearts & Minds progress in the Ashgate District not progressing correctly
- Fix for non-english characters used in login names
These will join many other fixes which we will release when that patch goes live.
How is the Xbox One version? This game has me curious for some reason.
The 1.5 patch for PC is now live and you can see the patch notes below.
The main point for this release will see the Hearts & Minds progression restored in Ashgate. This patch should allow anyone experiencing this issue to continue their journey.
However, there is a small caveat that we need to bring to your attention - during some of our final testing against some of the community provided saves, we found that any player who had already hacked the transceiver in Ashgate wouldnt see the icons that are revealed on the map. This doesnt have any knock on effects, and simply re-discovering them by moving around will make them reappear.
This will be fixed in our next patch but as it is a minor issue and in an effort to not delay this patch further, we made the decision to submit and release the current patch now. Please note that this doesnt effect anyone starting new games.
In the mean time, here is a sneak peak at Triage, an upcoming mission that will join Resistance Mode soon!
Patch Notes 1.5:
Fix for players Hearts & Minds progress not progressing correctly in Ashgate.
Fix for Home of the Brave achievement not being achievable.
Further reduction in the number of checkpoints saves that occur whilst playing
Fix for non English character support in the users Windows login name
Some players who encountered issues with audio relating to the smartphone should now see it working as intended
Additional Nvidia tweaks
"The story, which you can ignore 95% of the time, would have you think youre making America free again. Whatever. I couldnt care less who originally owned this ersatz Philadelphia, or even that its Philadelphia, or that Homefront is peddling a supposedly gritty alternate history cautionary tale about Apple. This is a war game about converting territory and one of the least relevant factors when youre fighting a war is why youre fighting it. So you call up the map, consider your options, and ponder whether to attack that fortified gas station yet. Or maybe you should do a scavenging run because you can almost afford to boost your sniper rifle to its maximum level. Then you can get a position looking down into the gas station and clear it out without breaking a sweat. Just as the latest Far Cries lets you clear out its jungle bases however you like, Homefront: The Revolution lets you take back these urban ruins however you like."
The file is big and I've been downloading it slowly. It's just at 25%. I hope to finally get around to playing this within the next week or two, once I finish Mirror's Edge.
How long am I looking at for a non-completionist, but non-rushed playthough?
Not sure if I should start this or wait a bit. Not sure I want another open world game, need something more linear.
How long is the completion on this? 15 hours?

Just an FYI. gamefly has this used for $10 on consoles.

And I'm pretty sure it's free shipping this weekend for labor day.
Edit: yep free shipping. Just got it for $10.69 shipped.
Came here to ask if it was worth $10 (free shipping is still active on Gamefly also), and I never would have guessed the OT is only 5 pages. I know the game kinda bombed but my god.
I think I'll still take a shot at it for $10, especially after reading about that huge patch they just released
I got to a mission that seems crazy unbalanced. It's a defence mission, and there's a fail-state if the five friendly NPCs die, but they're constantly bombarded by about eight enemies. Usually by the time I arrive at the location, two of the friendlies are already dead. Tried it about six times, failing every time.
Going to do something else and maybe get better armour/weapons before trying again.
