Bought it in the US...DOn't like having Downloadables. I also wanted a headset.

But wait...I do have US peeps who share with me...I just buy them something in return. But how do we go about sharing this booster pack if it's buyable in Warhawk? Will it appear in the PS store like other things bought? TTP do you know?

Thanks

What about buying it through the U.K. store. Deleting it and then redownloading it from the U.S. store...would that work?

Hey J! Umm well I don't think that will work. It's not on ANY of the stores yet though is it...it's only on the Warhawk store itself?

Anyway I know how normal sharing works...but is this like normal sharing? I ask that to people who have already shared it. Thanks ye.

Why not try buying a pre paid mastercard to buy stuff off the US Store like I did. I was in the same boat as you now I can buy anything.

I'll setup a 20p Omega Factory server later tonight if you guys want.

Ranked? Unranked? Modes? What do you guys want??

Wow this map is massive and it's really difficult to play it by foot because of the size but there is some very cool architecture on the ground. I started playing Warhawk two days ago
getting my ass kicked
and now I have a new huge map. <3 Incognito

What rules affect ranked now and can you do private slots like PC games yet?

Downloading now. I like the way the store overlays over the game and takes you straight to the PSN Store's checkout system. Hopefully this type of concurrency is a sign of things to come.

SingStar PS3 uses the same system. It's own store but it takes you to the known wallet function when you pay. Pretty neat.

but the download is in your PSN Store "Download list" if you need it later, right?

PS: does Rock Band use this system? If it doesn't, it should.

EDIT: yeah, the booster pack shows up in the download list on the PSP browser-based store, so i'm sure its in the PS3 store as well.
 
So can I gameshare the add-on? I know Warhawk you can't game share but the add-on should be cool right? And to those who say game sharing is bad, It IS if your sharing with random just to save money but if I just want to share it with personal friends who I know what's wrong with it? We all bought Warhawk anyway.

It's Sony's choice to allow game sharing or not on warhawk, so if they do you have the moral high ground.

Although I would think that omega would have similar DRM to warhawk where it is one account per 24 hours or whatever they did.

I don't think its wrong to gameshare. Just don't cry when you buy a PS3 Slimline in a couple years and don't have any activation slots left. DRM licks balls.

yeah, but once you start doing it on friends systems (let alone Gaf strangers) it can become difficult to remember where you did it.

jesus... i forgot how terrible WarHawk's server list is.

its not bad enough that its like a PC game circa 1997, the player count may as well not be there at all because its never correct.

So why doesn't SCE have a 24/7 omega server!

I had to go to a player ran server to get my fix and it was running like ass.

I can do a Ranked Dedicated (Min. players 8, Friendly Fire 100%, Split Screen Off, Blance and Switch Teams On, CTF Fly with Flag off, Chernovan/Eucadian Clan Auto assign disabled) or Player Ranked (same rules apply). I can save as many slots as I want for people in my friend list.

The map was released early via the in game store, official release date is still tomorrow.

well up to you/gaf. i know the balance settings usually bugged us on ranked servers because we could never switch to play together. When were you going to set it up?

About omega, they should still jump on it!

List of stuff for Jobe:
-"Fix" autobalance so it doesn't stop me from playing with my bros. Even if I have to spectate waiting for joins.
-Screensaver in menu screens

sure it is. Probably the best server list on the consoles since the fixes few months ago.

Well, looks like it's time for me to go ahead and get Warhawk now, I'll pick up the booster pack as well I think.

Can you PSN share Warhawk at all? And the booster pack?

You can't gameshare the full game (it's tied to your PSN account meaning you have to login with the account your purchased it with), not sure about the map pack.
