    People still hate on stingers? Its nice that they are worth a damn, but I did find a legit bug using my IGLA on Oman the other day. Perhaps this was just a graphic glitch but I don't think so. My IGLA was locking on and I'm mashing left-mouse so it launches asap because the gunner in the chopper made me. Doing this I would regularly launch 2 rockets at once. At first I thought it was just me, but then I was able to repeat it several times. Then I thought its just launching the rocket on my screen its not actually launching it. Chopper popped flares and both rockets exploded behind him. I've been trying more and more to re-create this but it hasn't been working like that night on Oman.

    If I wanted to go sort of close up with the M98B, what kind of scope would I want? I was thinking maybe a 3.4x or 4x

    Iron sights dude, time to go a' huntin' for deer.

  • BigDesBigDes Registered User regular
    Speaking of the M98B is there a glitch that lets you rapid fire it or did I just run up against a hacker?

    So apparently, some folks found out how to mod Bad Company 2 maps and host modded servers.

    From what I read, they reverse engineered tools from leaked game files. All you have to do to join a modded server is download some new DLL. I would make absolutely sure you never even try to join a Punkbuster server if you decide to go that route. You will be permabanned.

    Fun games tonight! There were 6 of us at one point, good times!

    I also did this by mistake:

    I slammed into the building while trying to kill some dude in the ground and ended up like that. I was so sad I didn't have my torch equipped.

    Gamestop's twitter says they were demo'ed BF4 by EA. I'm guessing we might see a clip of it during the Sony press conference tomorrow.

    They have a early access deal for the PS3, no doubt Sony wanted to continue that.

    BF3: Premium Edition is currently MXN$322 (Roughly $25 USD) at the Mexican Origin store. (Or just premium for about $22 USD)
    http://store.origin.com/store/eaemea/es_MX/pd/productID.255751200

    Just in case anyone is on the fence and willing to use a VPN/Proxy to take advantage of that.

    So quick question.

    Never played a Battlefield before, but I've been jonesing lately for some relatively tactical shoosting. Is BF3 vanilla even worth getting at this point? It's only $10 on Origin for the next few days. I assume that everyone has all the premium stuff though and it could very well just be a waste of time and money.

    Lots of servers on pc are strictly vanilla, actually. Ten bucks is definitely worth it in my opinion. You will need to fight hard not to get premium before battlefield 4 comes out. The temptation will be great.

    Maaann the $10 BF3 kept eluding me till I bought it for $12.50 on Gamefly. Now it's $10 again?
    Booooooo

    Also that $22 premium is teeemmptiiiinnggg

    And yeah @Ceno, vanilla is worth it for sure. I'm rockin' vanilla and it's still great fun.

    All right, I went for it. Downloading vanilla now.

    Get the premium. It was worth it on PS3 for $60 and literally half the game you'll be getting for a third the price.

    And to understand the now deep-seated hatred of the USAS-12, which has been continuously nerfed since its introduction:

    (this video is very barely satire)

    I was one of the first PA people to unlock it, and when I got frag rounds for it way back in the day, people kept asking when they added the LAV to whatever map we were playing.

    @Ceno, look up servers with the word "noob" in them.
    They're severs with level caps, so you can learn to play with your fellow noobs.

    I played a match on Firestorm last night where literally every single person on my team was an engineer, no exceptions. Needless to say, the other team was running absolutely wild with tanks and helicopters with nary an AT mine or missile thrown at them.

    Hey guys, Premium is available for $20 over here: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-BF3P/battlefield-3-premium-service

    Use the code: elder-geek.com to bring it down to $18

    This is premium only, not BF3+Premium.

    Shit man. You got me. You got me good.

    How/where do I enter the code? There doesn't seem to be a box of any sort.

    Edit: well ended up getting it for $15.98 because of their fuck up with the Bethesda pack in December.
    Sky's the limit now I guess!

    I think it is in the top. Some people still prefer the AEK and the AUG.

    Yeah, even though guns are balanced, the M16A3 is in bullshit territory that it's good for close, mid and long range engagements. It's easier to kill someone at a distance with the M16A3 using ironsights, than with the AS VAL using a 4x scope.

    I swear on occasions there have been times I've done exactly this with the Javelin and I've killed someone and had it pop up at the bottom of the screen before I've even launched the Jav.

    Arghhh I played a few matches today with some PA'ers, but the game kept kicking me out for "Server timed out", specially when I had managed to get C4 multi-kills.
