    I've had some really enjoyable matches where both teams are balanced, and each one is struggling to reach their objectives, only to have 2 assholes join in and jointly start using C4 on the stations. Ruins it for everyone.

    Even in BC1 I never saw why they let you use C4 on the objectives. It destroys them so fucking quickly it feels broken.

    I was taking care of a 100% health point, and I left it alone just to place 2 mines on the path to it, it didn't even take me 10 seconds to do so, when I'm running back to it, I see a recon guy running away and the MCOM blowing up behind him.

    Ah yes we did, I was mostly referencing to other days I've played. Some incredibly fun matches, where both sides are having fun, then some people leave, and the C4 people join in. Even people in their own team started apologizing to the defenders.

    Man, getting 7K points in a single round is awesome. We were defenders, getting steamrolled - they had 90 reinforcements left when we had the one M-Com station left (A in the last area). We held them off! Fuckin' rad. I picked up some nice medals in that one. A few dog tags, too.

    It's either a beta-only thing or just a badly optimized port. There is no difference in framerate between all low 1xAA and all high 8xAA, for me at least.

    The game is very CPU intensive, not necessarily a sign of poor optimization.

    Kinda, sorta is. It doesn't report online very well, but when someone is online (despite it not saying so) you can still join on them properly. If it can, it puts you in their squad, which is neat.

    Edit: Also, someone get the dude who made the OP to update it to a list of names or something. Or the second post.

    I can run Crysis better than this, and that game looks far better. I call it bad optimization.

    Sorry about the sound in Vent. Usually when I play with guys in Vent they can hear me fine, I don't know what the problem was there. And I don't think it's my windows mic settings since you could here me when VOIP was working in-game.

    Man I hope they get around to announcing that 4-pack deal soon.

    Add Winnie the Pooh if you would please.

    After spending all of about 5 minutes with the xbox version it's hard for me to play on the PC with the horrendous hit detection. I hate trying to burst and watching bullets completely whiff. Or watching someone run between teammates stabbing away while I try to click-click-click-click-click-click-click-click instead of just holding down since hes two feet away.

    Hopefully they have the option for servers to turn off stations being destructible by C4 and such. If you have a friend with you, you can just C4 a UAV and blow up any station you want with almost an 100% success rate. It's pretty god damn cheap.

    It'd be nice if they did the L4D "three times and you're permadead" thing.

    I think I was feeding the other team kills as my idiot team failed to kill a Bradley. I was constantly reviving 2 guys as soon as they died (basically as soon as my paddles recharged) so many points for me.

    Well apparently tickets are refunded for revives, so at least you weren't screwing your team or anything.

    Argh, one of the groups of friends I play on Live with pretty much won't do anything but go for the helicopters and tanks. It's like playing with pubs, but with the added bonus of loud, friendly arguing continuously spewing from the mic.

    Well, for the PC they can rely on admins to do their job. Since the only way to get a dedicated server is to rent one, I'd assume the majority will have admins. Set up rules and boot anyone who doesn't follow them.

    Just played a shitload of rounds with Jaunty. I kept getting slammed by T-90s and he kept reviving me. Fortunately, I was a badass and went running up the hills cleaning entire squads up with the Saiga. And we each got a sizable amount of knife kills.

    Good job :D
