Monaco: What's yours is mine - The Bear and Badger

Kernowgaz

Cheers Tempy , I've got another question for you regarding connecting up my laptop to the Tv . Do you know why the screen gets slightly enlarged so the corners are missing ( no maximise or minimise ) . I've changed the resolution but that changes nothing - could it be the TV ?

RetroGam3r

should have different resolution settings on your laptop, Just have a tinker around. I think I had it once before. Or if your TV supports it, change the screen size.

Kernowgaz

I change the resolution but the screens still the same size

RetroGam3r

The problem your getting is because I think your resolutions dont match up. Easy mistake as its the way the laptop does it. Course I could be wrong. For me it was because I had it on max settings for resolution and my tv was much lower so it was crazy weird. I dropped it to the lowest setting and built it up one by one.

A quick google of your laptop and tv details could hold the answer maybe? A quick search just says about the resolution stuff.

Knew it wouldnt take long and this wont surprise many, But Monaco is apparently really easy to cheat at. Its just a case of tinkering a few files. The dev says it cant do anything unless it goes always online. They will delete crazy low time runs but thats it. Shame really as why cheat? Its an age old problem though so its not a surprise.

I do like the idea of every game being recorded and you can upload videos of your play. Could also slow down the cheating aspect perhaps? On the dark side of it though, A chance to go back to that swat infested level with infinite shotgun does sound good!

No worries Kern, I'll just get it anyway. Nicer to give a solo dev his full credit anyway

Yeah sorry mate , it's great though only played single so far - just got to find the time for co-op .

@ The chaps who have played this a fair bit , do you know of a quick guide that's available ?

Tempy

Nope, just dived in and learnt, everything is fairly self explanatory, part of its beauty.

The more you play, The more you learn. For me to be honest, It didnt click until multiplayer

Cheers for advice about TV , I had to change settings to just scan and hey presto - It worked !

RetroGam3r

No probs man, Glad to help. I think I added you on Steam. Steam doesnt load the names of people in the group my end. Also Steam has come up with no connection again, Just like last night and at the same time.

Tried playing with randoms online earlier. Absolute nightmare as everyone just lone wolves it around. Had a mole that would even make Bollo cringe. He destroyed every wall going then our hacker dropped a c4 on our get away car....instant mission failure.

At least you didn't have problems with the car alarm going off.

Monaco has had a huge update. Totaling a whopping 1.1mb yes meg. For this huge file download you get a fix for the worldwide setting in matchmaking. Apparently it never worked and just went by your region.

... But no level editor yet?

RetroGam3r

Next week the Beta for it is out. Cant wait. Im sure Tempy will make one with crazy hacking puzzles and shit

RetroGam3r

Did some more research on the piano playing achievement and it turns out its a hard one!
Basically you have to all be on a different set of keys on the piano, start playing a second apart so the tune plays properly, and heres the real kicker. You gotta keep the tune going for 60 seconds! If the timing of playing wasnt bad enough, the length of playtime is crazy. Casino is the best level to do it on and I would say killing everyone might help.

Still, could be fun to try. On a side note, If you enable Beta within Monaco in your library then you can try out the cloud saves. Cloud saves will be main stream next week.

It's finally got a new release date for the 360 - 10th may !

Elmlea

Anyone getting it on XBLA?

FranticPea

Me most likely. I'm a busy bee all weekend though so won't be on until Sunday, so it'll be old hat by then.

Elmlea

I'll probably be about for a game at some point.

Stopharage

I will be. No idea what I'm doing though, but the hype on here has whet my appetite.

Wookienopants

Ill be grabbing this on 360 but won't be able to play until possibly Tuesday morning. Or maybe next weekend.

Count me in when you do.

Wookienopants

Definitely. Will be nice to try this in multiplayer

Kernowgaz

Anyone fancy some 360 heisting now ?

Moto70

If people are definitely on and playing this on the 360 today I may well buy it now...

I can't believe more aren't playing this , sent a couple of messages to sparky but got ignored Tuesday :-(

.

I'll be on at 9 tonight if anyone wants some co-op fun ? Still not played co-op yet.

FranticPea

I may grab it later.

Olimite

Going to wait for it to be cheaper. Trial was okay.

RetroGam3r

Game is a million times better in co op

Howdy, Stranger!
