    Anyone have tips on getting demolition kills? I've been going out of my way to blow up buildings I think will have people in them using the grenade launcher, and it usually just results in team kills D:

    I don't know they expect people to get 20 kills doing that... I haven't even got one yet and I'm already rank 13.

    I got kicked from a server for teamkilling 10 people when I destroyed a building. You dumb motherfuckers shouldn't have all been in one building!

    I'm gonna go with a resounding you shouldn't have been shooting/destroying a building with 10 teammates in it.

    I think it is partly down to blind luck whether you end up with them. I ended up with 5 demolition kills at once and it was completely unintentional. Had an empty clip, so sent a 40mm at a guy who was arming an MCOM. That didn't kill him, but the building coming down on his head did. Along with his 4 friends. And, er, whoops, sorry MCOM.

    I believe that's a part of EA's 15 dollar plan. If you buy their games brand new you get access to DLC which you would have had to purchase if you bought the game used. If I'm not mistaken anyway.

    The free stuff is stuff you'll unlock eventually anyway. The DLC is a pair of maps, with another pair on the way. If you can't find the code and you have the PC version, it's apparently already included or something. I had no "VIP code" but both maps were available.

    Jesus christ, another game ruined by worthless recons sitting in the rear holding their dicks. There was ONE squad actually pushing for the MCOMs, while the other team was just laughing at how many retarded recons we had.

    I need to find a server titled "We ban anti-social, friendless virgins", then I can have a game where shit gets done.

    Considering I had half of them screaming at me because I tracer darted their face, ruining their aim and lighting them up for enemy snipers - no.

    There is literally NOTHING more fun in this game than griefing sniper recons. Because you KNOW they're sitting in their basements, their pudgy, pale teenage bodies shaking in rage.

    Fuck you, Dice. Fuck you.

    and yes, they did cut support, although not publicly:

    Wikipedia wrote:
    Despite launch problems, DICE reported that after the first day of release players had accumulated 29.45 years worth of game time and over 5 million kills.[23] However, by December 2009 new technical problems began reducing the quality of gameplay, with notable latency, "teleporting," and user interface delay in all games; though no formal admission of this has been provided by Electronic Arts or Dice, the EA Battlefield 1943 support forums are filled with many complaints and requests for assistance. [24] According to one reviewer, the game is basically unplayable as a result of these quality problems: "The controls now feel stiff and non responsive with every button pressed having a half second lag not to mention the overall lag which still inflicts ‘death from nowhere’ syndrome with every game." [25] As of March 2010, severe lag and latency problems yet exist, leading to the creation of multiple petitions on EA's own web site for EA to offer either support or recompense for affected customer


    Fuck you EA or whoever.


    edit: Here is their excuse for why it's taking so long:

    Battlefield 1943 PC version delayed till September


    The developer of the Battlefield: Bad Company, DICE has lately explained the reason of PC version of Battlefield 1943 being delayed.

    This first-person shooter game will be releasing for Xbox 360 and PS3 by June this year and the PC version of the game will be available by September this year. The producer of the game, Gordon Van Dyke attributed the delay to the fact that Battlefield 1943 is the first PC title to use DICE’s Frostbite Engin. This was earlier harnessed to create the console exclusive Battlefield: Bad Company.

    Van Dyke also said to the media that the PC version of the game needs more features and more support, and it can’t just be thrown out there using copy/paste.

    He even added, “We feel once you play the first Frostbite PC game ever from DICE you’ll see why we put this extra time and care in on the development making all right again in the universe.”

    Link to the article.



    So it actually is coming out, when no one will care anymore.
