Valve should create as part of steamworks a server browser system games can just plugin and start directing their games to the right servers.

well i give up. this is f***ed.

yeah that's an even better idea parody :P

Last night i started trying to get on servers at 9:50. Around 10:25 I connected to my first server. Two minutes later i white-screened and had to kill BFBC2 and was back at the server browser. About 10:40 I got on to a server, to be joined by pARODY shortly after. About 15 minutes later i crashed again but managed to get straight back in to the same server and played through till i crashed at 11:50

So... 3 crashes, about 50 minutes of trying to connect to servers and about 70 minutes of gaming

but those 70 minutes were f***ing sweet!

That's weird ay, my copy runs perfectly fine now..

0o 0o maybe they fixed it while we were asleep haha :D

Glad I canceled my pre-order!

Well for my 2 cents i have to say that so far i haven't had one crash, tear or artifact in game and apart from the obviously broken and in dire need of patching server browser, the game is awesome. I was thinking back to when BF2 first arrived and if i can remember rightly, they had the same sort of dramas with their browser as well. Still you think they would have learned by now hey?

Just a thing to try that may help... If you let the server browser search it takes ages and when i finally brings up servers, nearly all the local ones in my case have - for the ping... lame... but what i've been doing is let the browser start it's search and about 20 - 30 seconds in cancel it. Wait for a few seconds and usually out of no where a partial list shows up. Funny thing is tho, it has a s***e load more low ping local servers on it... i managed to add about 10 of em to my favourites and now i just use that or my friends list to find games... Hard to find an empty slot mind you, but even servers with 2 - 3 people will be maxxed by the time you've capped the first point so i never worry about joining empty's...

For mine tho, even with a busted arse browser, this game still betters MW2... trying to get a game in that is f***ing horrible... once the server browsers fixed in BC2 i doubt i'll be going back...

so sick of these in game movies.. Can't stop them..

It's easy to do in BF2:

Delete the Dice, EA, Intro, and Legal .bik files from your EA Games\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies folder.

wonder if it's the same process?

Seems to be getting buggier for me every day. The server browsing is enough to make the baby jesus cry, the crappy friends setup where you have to click on them 400 times before the game actually lets you join the sever is detrimental to the health of anything within reach at the time. And I can't tell you how much I just love the added feature of having to set up my kit every-f***ing-time I join a server - which I might add is quite often as the game will kick you at least 20 times a night due to a myriad of reasons ranging from PB failed init's to EA server connection errors, or even just because it wanted to.

Other than the above, I love the game. It runs smooth (when working) and has some great elements of game play. I can see myself playing this one for a long time to come, as long as they fix some serious issues soon and I don't end up RQ'ing and setting my PC on fire....

Delete the Dice, EA, Intro, and Legal .bik files from your EA Games\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies folder.

DONT DO THAT. You need to replace them wiht 0 size files. So just open notepad and save a blank notepad thingo over them.

Has anyone been able to find a way to join a server via IP ADDRESS? There are many sites around such as THIS however you cant type them into the gamesettings.ini, instead those favorte servers in that ini use some weird GUID type thing that I cant work out.

Anyone had luck with that?

The videos are all skippable for me.

Gamer, WORKED FOR ME.

It's quite possible you were trying to join a server with reserved slots. I remember trying to join my m8's, it had 24 out of 32 people.. No matter how many times I kept trying to connect, it wouldn't let me and it wouldn't say why. I then realised I was joining a clan pub server that had 8 reserved slots.

Dammit no PC atm only gay laptop. Just rang that Elysium internet cafe in the valley but they guy said they didnt have it.. wtg

It's quite possible you were trying to join a server with reserved slots. I remember trying to join my m8's, it had 24 out of 32 people..

I hear EA isn't allowing any new servers until they sort out the issues on their end (with PB)..

the TOG comp team filled out already =( anyone in a clan(that has their own server) looking for a A++ medic for comp?

some clans got in before the lock out koopz.. We're getting a server as soon as they become available again.. which should be like now cause they have addressed the "load/traffic" issues....

Just picked up my copy for ps3. Awesome so far, server autojoin FTW

Yeah, PC has that too, we'd just prefer to be able to actually know we're getting a server of a decent quality.

Had a weird flickering texture error before which a mate showed us how to fix really easily.

ALT + ENTER (puts the game in windowed mode) , move the game window down a bit and hit ALT + ENTER again (returns game to fullscreen) which must force it to redraw an *viola* all flickering gone.

Why do you support a developer who had a 'beta' released that had all these issues described, especially the server browser, and not have them fixed for release?

Enjoy your broken server browser, because it probably isn't going to be fixed anytime soon.

Cause it's still better than MW2, can't believe I wasted money on that game :/

Cause it's still better than MW2, can't believe I wasted money on that game :/

I know and i still bought it after everyone told me not too :(

Game Tracker seems worth a go..

I can't test it yet though as Steam and EA are both offline just at the moment

*aurgh* no BC2 suport

if anyone's interested: scoring info and MP rank info

where did everyone buys theres from apart from steam.

Found this:

http://www.fileplanet.com/210430/210000/fileinfo/Battlefield:-Bad-Company-2---Gossamer's-BC2-Config-Launcher

Seems pretty cool and might help some of the peeps who have been having dramas with graphics settings...

well that's nice... offline again

maybe Valve will venture into this kind of FPS :/

You could play it on your mac >:)

ffs, why the f*** do i need to be logged into f***ing EA to play this game, u don't need to be logged into IW to play fkn cod mw2. God, the game is good but EA are trying to do everything in their power to piss people off enough to stop playing it.

yeah I'm beginning to wonder if the wares underground ver is taking off like the W0W one did

Dont need to be logged in to play single player

don't care about SP finished it within like 4 hrs

What a crock of s***. How many f***-ups can a single game have? I just want to play the game I paid for, for f***'s sake.

What a crock of s***. How many f***-ups can a single game have? I just want to play the game I paid for, for f***'s sake.

Hahaha, I was just about to buy it.

...moving cursor away from the 'purchase' button now...

Pinky, it is actually a fun game to play, you just have to be able to tolerate the s*** (unfortunately)
The servers are offline for now as they are supposedly doing a hardware upgrade to cope with the overload.

dead set i just installed the game tonight to play it and I upgraded my pc to 64 bit with more ram only to find the server are down... sigh!!

Just saw this on the battlefield forums. Heres hoping this s*** is patched soon (glad im playing ps3)

s***! would this be the reason the servers are down/?

^ hahahah click on the Modern Warfare 2 video. I love how raged some people get in servers when a blatant cheater comes in. lols me up.

Hahaha, I was just about to buy it.

...moving cursor away from the 'purchase' button now...

Don't get me wrong, the game is amazing fun. If it weren't for the server f***ups, I'd recommend it 100%. The EA servers are back up now, and playing tonight was totally painless. None of the annoying little quirks it's had over the past week. Hopefully whatever they did to the servers today has solved a lot of their issues.

But yeah, it's an awesome game. The single player campaign is pretty cool too. If you're into Battlefield, I'd say you may as well just get it, it'll be stable soon enough, if it's not already.

Ahh cheaters. Been messing things up since the CS days and haven't stopped since.

Stuff this, I'm going back to my Megadrive to play Toejam & Earl. Least there all I have to worry about is Randomizer presents.

Anyone been able to log in, I brought this thurs night, everytime I try Multiplayer, it just times out saying :Unable to contact EA servers".

just wondering if I should bother checking my own end cause I knew there were some upgrades done over the weekend.

Add me to your friends lists

xaltd

Check your end, worked for me all weekend and today from 2pm.

Ta Nat's, my end obviously stuffed, I mean I installed it out of the box and it doesn't work, clearly i'm doing it wrong :P

Anyone know if Xfire will work as a server browser for this?

Yo all.

Me and some friends at work are pitching in to get our own hosted server to play on. Obviously we will all be admins and kick people if we need spots freed up.

Add me to friends game name is Lebb .

last nite we had the more awesome game yet,it went for 40 ms !

bloody snipers.. :P

last nite we had the more awesome game yet,it went for 40 ms !

Sounds like a 32 player DM4, most of my spawns only lasted 40 miliseconds as well, it was more awesome !

the game can be a little spammy at times.

they have good men working on it

Got my end sorted, no idea what was broken, but a full uninstall using MS Un-installer, then full re-install patch (Run as Admin) and Run as Admin the game exe sorted me out.

Thanks for the PMs that got me on the right direction.

Is there any way to create custom server lists or just not use the BC2 server browser? It takes forever and only comes up with 2 aussie servers for me.

Follow the advice on server searching in one of the other bfbc2 threads. Works very quick.

patch came out today... anyone played and found difference?

From what I've heard the browser is a lot faster, and there's more servers.

nah it's still the same...

PB still isn't stable on VMs, which makes up most servers out there

I am aaaaaaaaaaaching for the ability to host a server from home/work/some unsuspecting client's datacenter boxen

at the least we should have seen a lan client by now. (read - got a lan in the next couple of weeks, and we're not gonna be playing this awesome game =( )

When does the engineer get to be able to repair stuff?
Do you have to level up to do it?

Thats the problem with buying off steam, no frigging manual. I'd love to know what the level up are ect. Is there a guide anyplace?

last edited by E.T. at 23:19:02 18/Mar/10

ET pretty quickly, hit 4.. it isn't a "gadget" or anything it's just default after a lvl up or 2

Thanks Raider.
In BF2 as an Engineer in a tank, you would auto repair vehicles next to you. THis one doesn't seem to do that. Is that right?

ET, if you right click a game in steam, most of them have manuals.

woo finally got this s*** working



and it is as good as everyone has been saying

Fracture, not this one, not MW2, not L4D2.
Looks like the developers couldn't be bothers with such things anymore.

Engy only repairs when using the drill

Onya Boba. Who cares if you make prices go up on steam. Your the awsomest :)

I'm off to buy a new monitor from CA's. Over the last year I've had huge issues with my 28" Viewsonic and nvidia drivers not working properly over HDMI. And looking on google heaps of other people have been too. It would be fine if the monitor had DVI but it only supports VGA and HDMI.

So anyway, I need the latest drivers to play BC2 because the textures are breaking up and making it impossible to play. Bad thing is I have to take a 1" hit and settle for a 27" display. Good thing is it goes up to 2048 x 1152.

Wish me luck!

So what's the concensus on this now.....worth the fifty dorrah? I see that they removed the SecureRom DRM from the steam version, does this make any difference to the drop out issues etc?

It's rad Mass, go get it and tell me your user name :)

My username is Rock-It Man

Still on noob levs though

rev you can just get dvi to vga converter plug

HDMI to DVI mifght be better :)

*cancel that: fail for not using google ... having problems but i'm not fussed about a gun i probly won't use.*

I'm loving this game so much. Need to get my kd ratio up cause it sucks. The team stacking when things start going bad is so infuriating that I want to punch my monitor. Working with a good squad is a lot of fun.

yeah. just starting to get into it. only level 4. the team stacking is really lame. but is a sweet game.

Add me, fellas.
Loving this game. getting the hang of staying alive and love flying my choppers.

Problem im having though is recon. God i suck at the sniper rifle.

What sort of system do you need to play? Ive got an E8400 (Core2Duo 3.0ghz) and an 8800gt with 4gb ram, will it play ok? Probably be playing at 1280x720 or 1920x1080, If my machine can handle that res.

So this new patch has helped it get over its teething problems? I might have to pick it up if thats the case.

nice - the M1 garand is back

Garand needs abit more power me thinks :(

My nick is fiftynine50 -Add me in guys - I'll be online tonight for some action

Currently rank 14 - I want to hit 16 tonight so I can unlock the shotgun slugs

Problem im having though is recon. God i suck at the sniper rifle.

Press M1 and hold it and you will stay scoped, this will let you see the bullet drop and depending on the accuracy of the rifle, horizontal shearing, though there is nothing you can do for shear.

After awhile you get good at ranging and don't need a ranging shot.
As a reasonable guide, close range, zero horizontal or vertical adjustment.

Medium range - Approximately 3mm above the target for a high center mass to headshot. For a moving target, about 3mm lead for a running person, for a sprinting person about 4-5mm.

Long range - The desert map in conquest cycle (the tank one with the Factory as C, NOT atacama with the attack choppers), for example to hit a person standing on the roof of C, from the RU deployment area at the bottom of the hill (shooting through the ruins of D) you'll need nearly 7mm of vertical adjustment above the player, on the M95 or M24 this equates to about 3/4 of the first range marker on the crosshair), good luck hitting a moving target at this range, but it is possible ;)

For short to mid range and a person moving perpendicular to you on an ATV, whereby they take up half your scope as it is, you need to lead 1/2 to 3/4 of your scope on top of that in front and fire.

Have an accuracy of 36% at the moment with the m95 though it's on the rise and seeing anywhere from 40-60% accuracy on average per round these days.

Only thing that's really difficult to hit after awhile is people moving erratically with no obvious pattern if you happen to miss the first shot, or what more likely happens, you hit but don't kill (even with the m95 and magnum ammo!)

still working towards magnum ammo :(

Steam have a 3 for 4 copies sale on. If anyone is interested to buy in a group, PM me.

Steam have a 3 for 4 copies sale on. If anyone is interested to buy in a group, PM me.

God f***ing dammit, first they drop the steam price back down the day I get a solid copy, and now they offer a deal pack. Why didn't they have this s*** prior to release? I was going to get a deal pack with some friends...

Been playing with the Assault's smoke grenades all night trying out its effectiveness. What I have found is it can be godly with a few adjustments.
The smoke clears too fast, and the size of the cloud isn't big enough. The clouds are barely bigger then a grenade splash zone.
As it is, to hold down a decent smoke screen you really need one dedicated player with an ammo box pumping an area with smoke over and over.
That said, it is a great offence and defence on rush maps around Mcoms. Few players realize what is going on if you lay down a cloud about an Mcom to set it. And if you have to decrypt, a cloud will shield you from snipers.
Also great to lull people into traps and ambushes.

Ok, we have two peeps. Need two more for the pack. PM me.

EDIT: Now three people, need one more.

also, shooting down choppers with pistol tracer dart + lock on rockets woo wooooo

Can anybody explain how on things like Atacama desert, some people seem to be able to easily see clear across the entire map?
E.G. You get in a chopper and someone goes straight to the AA gun, they seem to be able to fire at you from behind your own base (which, if I recall, is too far with the fog haze to spam SPOT and just shoot at the marker)

Sounds like hax Mephz. Some people turn gfx right down low and res to 640x480 to get more kills. Sometimes turning gfx down low can remove critical items like grass and fog. You think you're hiding in a big patch of grass, but then someone shoots you from 500m away. One issue with PC players having many different hardware setups.

There are already hax out there for BFBC2 that are quite advanced, and since most servers don't have PB enabled, I'm sure there are a fair few using them. Search youtube for FPSCHEATS and you'll see what I mean.

It s***s me to tears when people rip the guts out of a games detail just so they can play it because they have s*** machines. Almost makes me wish turning details off or on were all server side.

If your machine is too s*** to run a game properly, f*** off an keep playing CS or SIMs

Pb is back on and it works been kikcing ppl for multi hack for the last 5 days works well.
if only the patched the spawning problem at start of game for ati ppl and the tking and auto balence that would of helped heaps in the game

Its a bit hit or miss with this game...

I've got E6750 OC @ 3.0Ghz, 4GB of DDR 2 and 1GB GTX 285 and i get this wierd lag/jerk issue to the point its not even playable e.g. sits on 25 fps and doesnt go much higher even with everything on low or off.

Then i have my laptop Core2Duo 2.5Ghz, 4GB of DDR 2, ATi HD4570 and i get 45 fps and i can even put it on Medium.

Believe it or not its the only game that runs faster on my laptop even with the exact same settings.ini. PC version has issues with certain OS and hardware setups me thinks.

After spending 3-4 nights tinkering, tweaking and updating my gaming box i gave up... i got so frustrated i went out and bought it for PS3 and im lovin it on PS3. I aint gonna spend a $1,000 to upgrade my mobo, CPU to i7 and ram to DDR3 just for 1 badly designed game, screw that for a joke. Especially when i can pretty much max out every single other game.

That sounds like my experience with mw2. If I zoom out things disappear like grass, trees, boxes, etc and when I zoom in they reappear. The thing is I'm running everything on high. Weird.

Running a Q6600 @ 3.0ghz, 4GB and a 48701GB, everything on high at 1920x1200 with 4aa and 8af, but SSAO off. I get 50-60 fps avg

Lynx, how do you get it to show how many FPS your getting?

That sounds like my experience with mw2. If I zoom out things disappear like grass, trees, boxes, etc and when I zoom in they reappear. The thing is I'm running everything on high. Weird.

They got level-of-detail (LOD) right with ArmA I reckon. When you zoom away from grass it changes from being a post-processed effect into being a billboard texture (even slightly bigger sometimes!). That means that you are guaranteed 100% concealment. The grass just isn't as pretty from a distance (function weighted above form ftw).

@ET: you could download FRAPS to do it.

Also, still need one more Steam person to go in on this 3 for 4 pack. PM me.

Also, hax!

fraps

K ta

f*** cheaters s*** me...

Be nice if Valve should lurk off that site and collect IP's that go there an ban the next valve login from that IP
Yeah I know, completely unworkable still, the idea gives me wood

Well thats a depressing video, I don't understand the mind of someone who would use a hack like that. If you're so s*** at the game you need to use a hack to do any good, go and find a different f***ing game to play.

Do the Gamearena servers and the internode servers (does internode even have servers for it?) use punkbuster? And does punkbuster find this thing?

Punkbuster is s***. Lols me that games use it.

Also people don't cheat to win, they do it to piss people off.

Punk buster might be s*** but VAC is worse from what I hear. Someone said hackers get banned 7 days after they get detected or something and with all the stolen/hijacked accounts getting rid of them is pretty impossible. That's just what I've read on forums and heard on the grape vine though, none of that info comes right from valve so it's probably false.

So what's bad company like if you don't have any friends to play it with? Do you just join a server full of randoms or what?

wow this totally explains some of the bs i came across today in a pub

I actually was thinking WTF this mofo knifed me as he was jumping backwards before he even saw me.. 'auto knife pple when they are in range' totally explains it! Happened twice >< Also a few times id be flanking and a mofo would come back completly out of normal gameplay take me out.. i just guessed there was a UAV thing up.

f***ing cheating c***s ruining this game already

><

Somethings changed eh?

Have been cackling my head off this evening with the number of aimbot cheaters that have been getting banned!
Awesome work I say :)

I'm still suss about a couple of people tho
L33 whining decepticon, yeah you....
No f***ing way you could headshot me through scrub from where you were

You got spotted Hermi, I get head shots without seeing the enemy from time to time.

game tag: bretts ... kgo

You got spotted Hermi, I get head shots without seeing the enemy from time to time.

I've heard sometimes you close your eyes because the game is too easy with your eyes open. Is that true?

Spot the target, shoot the triangle.

hense why hardcore servers are far superior.

It's all about the spotting, get on a team that doesn't spot and you're boned.

How do you put in specific server IP's to join though? I'm still stuck playing on the single 3FL server that the browser picks up.

Damm should have checked QGL sorry Pinky, I bought it for $50US on Saturday.

Love the game, level 8 medic, havent played anything else yet.

PLUS :
-Squads that work together make this game, love having a balanced squad.
-Sound and visuals are yumm, standing next to a tank when it fires is wicked. Scares the s*** out of my kids when the subwoofer goes off (Yes its true, I dont give a f*** if the tank shots are louder than re-runs of Thomas the tank engine).
-Vechile variety is great

MINUS :
-No server side auto balance, "soandso switches sides" 18 on 5, or all level 30+ one side all 1-10 other side.
-Too many f***ing snipers..trying to dins someone to actually attack a camp with 14 snipers out of 16 players is dongs.
-Adding friends to your Friends list seems really crappy.
-Server browser is better than it was, but still feels a chore.

Someone School e on the "Q" key. In BF2 it bought up a menu for orders and such. If I'm looking at a target, it does something, but how can I ask for ammo or help ect?
Is this another current bug or am I doing it wrong?

look at an assault class and ti will auto ask for ammo. same with medic or a vehicle for a ride. it's a all-in-one console newb key

Oh, thats how it works. Thanks Boba :)
I guess that makes sense that someone should be near bye in order to ask for it.

Cheers

yeh our clan are probably going to be recruiting soon for some BFBC2 laddar

Add me
oTiTo

sorry tit i don't think my back could carry you :d

look at an assault class and ti will auto ask for ammo. same with medic or a vehicle for a ride. it's a all-in-one console newb key.

And aim at a objective to give attack orders.
Also it is hard to tell what a class is unless they are in your squad. You kinda have to look at their gear and take a guess.
and they need to add the class symbol to the respawn menu for your squad mates. Can't tell what they are.

They need to let you view chat when your dead ffs. Really love the game play but there are so many little annoying things that just make you wonder wtf they were thinking.

HQ Rush is awesome btw.

No one is using voice. I found one guy once. Why is that? Can people hear me when I'm dead? Screaming there's two guys on the roof.. On the f***ing roof.. I even spawned back and said I some more.

No one seemed to pay attention until I team typed it.

using teamspeak :)


hows this for a crazy CTD?


I'm running the Steam version of the game :/

hahaha, nice koopz. I blame opera, uTorrent and Live msngr running in the background for the crash. There is no substance to it, other than the electro-magnetic radiation caused by the proximity of wires in your ceiling and the cat hair in the CPU fan. ^_^

PROTIP: Having a problem with useless snipers on your team? The tracer dart can hit friendlies. Keep doing it till they get the f***ing message.

You got spotted Hermi, I get head shots without seeing the enemy from time to time.

Nah, not at that range through scrub. The beach jungle map. I was on defense right at last base an this dude was coming down from where the first defense point is at the beach.

Was watching him play last night an surprise surprise, decepticon mcchucklef*** gets banned for AIMBOT by punkbuster.
Almost made me cry with joy when I saw about 5 others get snapped in a few seconds for same hacks.

Nice to hear
I haven't seen any blatant cheating myself; though from time to time it feels as though all the bullets in the game are after me. ;)

ur all scrubs

got accused of hacking last night by a TOG admin..


so proud :)

Managed to get a 4 man krew together to get the squad pack. Thanks Khel and iFraktuRe. Sharing is caring <3

Now cut your finger and lets rub our blood together...

Hasn't he seen your K/D ratio Koops?

:p

^ Bah, mine's worse. But then I seem to spend more of my time dashing though the open with shock paddles...

Hasn't he seen your K/D ratio Koops?

some maps I do 5:1... others (ice maps at night) I can't see s*** and get pwned left right and center.

over the weekend I got told I'm ranked in the top ten medics in the world atm so that kinda brings some suspicion...

I have no idea why though - people die - I pick em up. *NO ONE DOES THIS* ..

atm medic class has the an awesomely overpowered M60..

I bet the EA nerf is on the way though

yer... medic is fkn easy and people love u... i see the little life line and are like YEE BOI POINTS!

For the record I paid pinky. If this is my last post ever, he killed me. AVENGE ME QGL.

It was $41AU btw. I laugh at people who paid more than double that.

You do have the habit of resing them into fire though :P.

But how they have determined that is something I would like to know.

atm medic class has the an awesomely overpowered M60..

Friend told they're looking at redoing the M60, M1911 and some other guns. Do not know where they got that info from though.

The M60 is ok, but ever since I got platinum on that I changed to the saw. Have platinum on that too and now have to find another gun to use :(.

The M60 nerf talk was from twitter

http://twitter.com/Demize99/status/10833476163

Going back to the studio tomorrow to work on Balance tweaks. On the list: M60, M1911, and AA. Up, down, sideways? I won't say...

Leave it how it is I say, take away the m60's awesomeness and there won't be enough medics to revive anyone :(

I'll be there with or without the m60s :P always been a massive fan of being a medic since battlefield 2

wow a game that most QGL ppl are playing this is first for a very long time!

Yeah, I've always been a fan of medic, since the RTCW omaha beach demo, running around sticking needles in people.

I'm with Frakture, got my shiny new $41 copy via Pinky last night, so I'll be hitting this up soon.

gotta love that. just playing then. had about 4000 exp points and crash. yay. also i cannot play single player anymore. everytime i click resume game it loads then crashes. tried about 4 times.

Anyone know how to get friends onto your list, I've sent out a couple of friend requests but then nothing? I guess it could also be that ET and Maverick are snobby c***s.

friends is still buggy as f***..

Oi Mass. I checked last night and I had no requests pending.
You need to just put E.T.
that worked for Maverick.

Khel, let me know when you've got it. Add me to your friends list too, soldier's name is Midda.

I put in oldasf*** and E.T. came up, I sent the friend request, but it was about 4:30pm so I figured you'd be having dinner and getting your slippers on before settling down to watch Deal or No Deal.

I'm sgt_pinky for any of you loners that feel like you need friends. Disclaimer: I'm s***.

Its okay Pinky, I am astounded at how much of a nub I feel at this game, it is enjoyable but everyone seems to have much bigger guns than me. I seem to do better on the smaller maps where I can get up close with the shotgun, seems to even the playing field a little. The worst thing is I can't even fire up a lan server for a bit of bot practice.

Same story with sex Mass !?

Also, your friend request wasn't there as of last night. Whats your nick again and I'll try adding you.

im in love with the gustav.

Nick: Gotkids
Your wife has never complained about my skills.

no but she does have a good laugh about it after

I can back that up.

I'm not worried about being s*** ;-) I have only played once so far. I'm sure my 1337 BF skillz will return.

I changed my clan's server to 10v10 Rush with FF turned on the other day. We have been playing that and its outstanding, since the Rush maps are a bit smaller than normal I just find 16v16 too crowded, no sooner do you spawn you get camped with the M60 or splashed with either spam or Gustav. At least with 10v10 it opens it up a bit and gives you time to scratch your arse before getting pwned.

Having FF turned on is nice too, at least you don't get phaggots spamming their toes, or their squad mates in knife fight to steal a kill.

Join us if you want, just put [cv] into the browser filter and it is the only server that comes up.

8-)

Probably wont get a chance to play it till the weekend, but my name in it is Khel, no fancy clan tags or prefixes or suffices, just keepin' it real.

The friends request is broken, you have to keep spamming it in most occasions.

my nick= .martz

We too have a clan server, just search for |AgB| (|= shift+backslash = crosshair)... it's a Hypernia Sydney server running 32 player Conquest, seems to be what most people are playing atm.

Carl Gustav is your friend.

edit: oh and I have found it to be very stable to play on and have never crashed (seems to be an important thing these days)

my stats don't show when logging in anyone know a fix for that ?

Can see dog tags but no awards or anything show

mines mitchconner. Tend to play rush abit lately

EDIT : Used to use the M60 with medic but i changed to the MG36 ( i think ), its the LMG that has sniper zooming scope and is super accurate. Raked up some pretty good scores with it.
