What is veterancy rank anyways? Mine is 180 or so.
Its how many Battlefield Games you own -1. So my rank of 6 means I have 7 other Battlefield games (and I do). A rank of 1 means you get access to the M1 Garand, any higher and you are just showing of but I like that
so far i am impressed by people who spam 203 'nades... i don't get killed by them often, and personally i suck with them. i feel like the blast radius is pretty modest.
i am usually an average sniper in most games... the recon class in this game is kind of weird for me. maybe i need to unlock better rifles? right now i need to hit neck or up with the bolt action for a one hit kill, and the 88 semi-auto seems to take three body shots to put someone down. but people one shot me all the time, even in a dead horizontal run... so yeah, some of y'all are really good i guess
so far my two biggest gripes (and they aren't 'legitimate' gripes against game balance or anything... they are just particular strategies that rub me the wrong way) are large swaths of recon enemies who camp certain areas... and medics with LMGs who pile in the second story of a building. i have unlocked the m249 and i think i am okay with it (not great, by any means), but i swear some of those medics are like friggin' snipers
anyways
fun game

Something about this video... the graphics seem different? I don't think certain effects are showing up in my game, such as those firefly sparks in explosions or the headlights on vehicles.
According to that weapon chart that gets posted about, they're exactly the same, damage wise.
The only difference, is the M1's got a longer reload and a smaller clip than the M14's magazine.
Demize, the liar himself (so take a grain of salt) has said something to the effect of the M1 Garand and Tommy Gun being WW2 weapons should not be expected to compete with modern firearms on a 1 to 1 basis.

I have just started work on a fantastic depiction of the true role of the Medic in Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

Try running the game in DX9 and on low settings - and still getting 12 fps and tearing.
So, I jump on the Dome early this morning, with it full of pubs. Half of my team insists on sniping. I encouraged them to leave their hills with endless smoke grenades.

I literally chased an entire two squads of pubbie recons off the hill on Valdez last night. It was identical to herding sheep. Shoot a smoke, they move forward two metres. Smoke them again, they move again. I dropped an ammo box and herded them down to the rocks at the foot of the hill and then smoked that too. They scattered into the trees and rubble and I planted on B. The defenders got nowhere near it due to about twelve snipers lining the outside of the construction site. I swear to god, you have to remind yourself that these are actual people playing the game.

I have to try this sometime. It sounds pretty awesome.

It seems like the beta drivers that enable AM3 processor compatibility for my motherboard have been in beta forever.
Hi guys its me how are things going how do you fly the helichopters?
Carefully! Find an empty server on a chopper map, preferably Attacama Desert and practice. Also, pick up medic kits and revive your squadmates, we're dying, on the ground feet from you, why do you hate us so?
Press and hold W, mouse forward to tilt forward, explode because they overbuffed tracer darts while not implementing helicopter flares into the PC side.
Also, helpful hint, press 3 or 4 to use your class gadgets instead of just shooting at people completely ineffectively!

Apparently pubbie recons have discovered a new methods of cockery on Laguna Presa Conquest. Taken only moments ago.
Do you seriously not understand how to use an image editing program or imageshack's built in resizing thing? Or do you think everyone wants to load 1MB images?
Do you have to go manually get the patch for box copies? That's the only reason I can figure on not being able to find the dome even after a full server refresh
Make sure you're launching the updater and not just the BC2.exe. Installation didn't add a shortcut for me and I used the latter until the first update made me realize my mistake.
But yeah, apparently the greyed Dome thing is up-to-date wonkiness.
oh that was weird. i ran and played it fine from my steam shortcut but opening up the actual game launcher said i had to update to be able to play which it's doing now

Your shortcut wasn't the launcher. The launcher checks for updates.

Yep nice to know i only discovered that today. All patched up though to R10 and whatnot. It was just sort of strange that the shortcut still ran the game (presumably in R7 with all the unupdated servers and people)
Sorry if this was posted already and I just missed it, but is anyone else getting weird graphical glitches after this patch? I never had trouble with this before, but now my screen starts sporadically flickering black, especially when coming into/out of an animation (reloading, sprinting, etc).

How many pounds you've gained due to battlefield related physical inactivity.

Expect it completed within a few days.

Ok, I got up there myself just then. Haven't died yet and I've got seven marksman headshots so far.
diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice
Also jesus those are some stupidly large images.
(hopefully they fix the Laguna Presa hill in the next patch)
You can, but its out-of-bounds territory now

That ledge has been used by silly geese since release. More power to them, as they make excellent hit-from-anywhere-on-the-map targets.
