    Playing Medic for few rounds last night for conquest mode. Fresh corpse icon comes up near me on mini map so I run to it with my defib out. As I was rounding a corner a tank shell hits the corpse and it flew towards me. I hit the trigger to defib while it was about 2 feet off the ground. Kind of weird seeing a dude appear, what it seems like to me, out of thin air.

    At the BFBC stats site. Remember to press "Update" on the overview page, it should say "Queue is full at 500" and then automatically start counting down the queue. Takes about 30min I think.

    I would say it depends on what you play most. I'm not as goddamn awesome as you but my accuracy on the sniper is 30+% but my accuracy with the m60/m249 is around 10% because i often just spam bullets at enemies in the distance.

    No, I am not really communist. Yes, it is weird that I use this name.

    Well then I've separated my accuracy:

    Assault rifles: 19.42%
    SMGs: 20.08%
    LMGs: 12.94%
    Rifles: 23.93%
    Shotguns: 23.54%
    Pistols: 23.34%

    I am average D:

    And also not being able to play is making me do dumb mundane things like checking my accuracy for each of my weapons.

    Played about a half dozen games yesterday - loving it online so far. But goddamn it takes some work to unlock things. Managed to get the medkits, but it's a struggle to get more than a 5 or 6 hundred points a round. Probably because I'm crap!

    It's ok - it's a good destroy.

    I rarely get mad at this game, it's just so much damn fun.

    Except for when my FPS drops to 12 and I can't aim...

    Which is 70% of the time.. BUT IT STILL RULES!

    The one person's tag I really want is Winnie The Pooh.

    Do I have to sign up for this site or something? I can't find my stats on it and Sigg O Matic is still broken for me.
    Your search request for 'Sheeeeeeep' is currently in queue at position 1 of 1
    After your request was handled you will find the result on this site.

    Just enter your name, it will tell you it can't find you. Then hit 'Update'. It took about 30 minutes to pull my stats in.

    Or perhaps everytime I stabbed you was right before one of the many Angry Dome crashes :P

    Ah yes, the stairway to hell

    So much carnage. It was like almost everyone on the server decided to swarm that staircase at once.

    At the BFBC stats site. Remember to press "Update" on the overview page, it should say "Queue is full at 500" and then automatically start counting down the queue. Takes about 30min I think.

    Goddammit it counted down from 500, and then once it made it down to like 20 it tells me "please wait 30 minutes"

    I got my first 2 dog tags last night. I am know I am guilty of tunnel vision in this game, so I wasn't entirely surprised when 2 dudes were trying to snipe from an attic and I simply climbed the ladder and stabbed both of them in the back. It's not heroic, but damn it felt good.

    The stat page's queue is stuck full at 500 people. I guess I'll have to try later.

    Edit: it's counting down!
