Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Well, I've no vested interest, I'm originally from Pittsburgh... Pitt grad... but I digress.
Make sure you get me added to your friends list or whatever
On a side note: do you still play hockey around town in rec leagues? If so, we may have met.
Weird, I just figured the dumbasses just jumped into whatever is closest
I think I need to purchase this. Rent may not be doing it for me... If it weren't for the whopping 4 total people on my Steam friends list playing it as opposed to over a dozen on my 360 list last night, I would probably have went PC. Hmm, maybe I'll just reinstall 2142 on the PC for that side of things and keep going on the 360

oh interesting, thanks! I kept zooming in and looking at the tank or chopper but nothing ever happened. i guess i wasn't looking at the little square
this is from many pages ago so i dunno what was decided but I'm actually enjoying Rush more than conquest which is not what I expected
Agreed. Rush is where its at.
It focuses the action into a battle line, making it feel more like a battle than a weird skirmish.
I can't wait to try out squad rush/deathmatch though.
Dude I haven't played anything with you in forever. I will invite you next time I see you.

After playing the beta for so long, conquest is nice... but only if everyone cooperates. That said, since people are still learning the maps it does feel like a cluster at times.

I've noticed that the Thompson isn't keeping track of my kills with it. I know I've ventilated a few people, but it says I've not killed anyone with it.
I wonder if it's not tracking them because I haven't gotten enough XP to "unlock" it yet. That's my guess, at the very least.
They were right though it is BAD.. it's bad when the classes in your game arn't even classes cause it's so fucking buggy.
Goddamnit I knew there may be connection problems around launch but this is ridiculous.
WANT TO BUY BETA BACK K THANKS.
Anybody else playing just one role or am I weird?
I have never experienced this. Connecting to servers is fine, and I believe you ahve to unlock the kits/tools. They only need like 1400 points so it should only take one round.
I want my goddamn M416 or the M16A2. I loved those 2 in the first, and they still better be christ-like in the sequel.

Candy Is dandy, But liquor Is quicker
Pretty much going that way myself. Sticking to the engineer until I get the AT4, then sticking to medic until I get the MG3.

Grenade launchers can clear a beach for landing.
And, again, yes about the UAV. I use it like if I were just running around blasting shit. Stay about 5 feet above the enemy and just keep wasting them.
Oh and this reminds me.
What's the difference between the two Alt Fires? I had one, and then I unlocked another at the end of the vehicle sections.
EDIT
I play all roles, though I prefer Recon and Engineer. The points you get for anti tank mines is ridiculous and I'm glad that the mines actually work in this game.
If I'm on attackers and I'm on a good squad that stays tight and work together then I'll spawn with them as assault or medi sometimes.
For me, this happened when I had it set to run in admin mode. Turn admin mode off made it work.
So I haven't actually been able to get that ping fix working.

That's Steam related, it's happened to me with other games. I just try again in a few minutes. In any case, close Steam and restart it.
But I wish Ping worked with the server browser. Also, they need to put in filters for hardcore mode.

AT4 shouldn't take long at all. I got mine yesterday, only got to play with it a couple of times though.
MG3....yeah, at 57000 Medic points, that's gonna take a while.
I usually play to the situation, though engy is my goto class if our squad / team is balanced.
Just wait till you try a Red Dot AK74u
SCAR who?

It was common in BF2 for servers to have"no unlocks" or stuff like that. Its a server choice.
But the server browser needs to have more filters so players can see these kinds of things before joining.

So my understanding is the FOV for the game is vertical FOV as opposed to horizontal FOV. So setting a 67.5 FOV on a 4:3 monitor will give the traditional 90 FOV and 108 FOV on a 16:10 monitor.

That's not a bug. You start without your class specific kit unlocked. Like the first unlock for the medic class IS the medkits. The paddles appear to be the third.

It looks like higher FOVs give more viewing space on the sides.
The viewing in game seems a bit tunnel-visioned. Will FOV help with this?
BTW, you mean an FOV setting of 108 will mimic the standard for a 16:10 monitor or 67.5 will give 108 on a 16:10?
Will do, Boogdud is the EA soldier tag/thinger. Glassjaw is my steam name.
I haven't played in a year or two (injury, slowly working my way from lazy to get back in) but I've played hockey in the area for a good 15 years or more. Both Ice and Inline, chillers, old ice barn before they bought it, etc. If you play any of the rec leagues I'm sure we've met.
If you shoot EA a technical support email maybe they'll be able to help.

Aww, ya made me feel bad.
I just mean as far as the people I play with regularly, there's an exponentially larger number of people on my 360 friends list than my Steam friends list.

You realize that's by design, right? Not a bug? As in, you need to unlock them? It was unlocked in the PC beta by default, but not on the 360/PS3 demos.
Just keep trying. Try a different browser. Don't use the numpad (defies logic, but proven).
The latter.
i.e. *everyone* should set it to 67.5 no matter what monitor they're using if they want a horizontal FOV as close to the traditional PC FPS FOV, because the game will adjust your horizontal FOV based on your monitor width. At least that's my understanding.

What is the default?
How'd you like the AT4 compared to the RPG? I'm antsy to have a more effective way to take down helicopters. Even AA guns are hit or miss. Literally, I suppose.
