    How 'bout making the HQ box telefrag? That'll be a big surprise in the update.

    "olo I'mma cheat"

    *telefrag*

    One thing I saw this morning. In the bottom left where you see X killed Y, I saw:

    Bob "left analogue stick icon" LS "right analogue stick icon" RS Joe

    WTF was that?

    The Left/Right stick icon and the LS/RS was an image, not text.

    We only play the good game modes (hardcore) every once in a while, though.

    Just found a real one on 'District' as well, then played the entire level interfereing with the teammates that were trying to do it. Hurrah!

    This is where you can get to

    000_0153.png

    On the south side of the map as you come out of the market go up the stairs to the left and jump onto that little shanty.

    000_0152.png

    From there you jump to the tiny rim on the archway, then go up and jump ontop and you can stand near that little banner and either stay overlooking the road or move and look over the entire market place.

    Has anyone else gotten into only wanting to play in a very certain server setup?

    For example, my ideal one is the following:

    Hardcore
    5 Second respawn
    No kill cam
    Friendly fire on
    Between 6 and 12 players. 16 maximum.

    This is for the PC. There are entirely too many 32 player limit servers. Also, lots of servers that have hardcore mode active have FF turned off, instant respawns, and/or killcams. Boo!

    I always forget how lame martyrdom is until I go play a server without friendly fire. Then it's just really silly. That's one of the primary reasons I stick to FF servers.

    Since we're on the topic of "maphacking," I was wondering if I could get some clarification on a couple ones...

    Some spots are obviously unintended, like the one Brutle points out, and the one on Crash. Others tho, I'm not to sure of. Take Ambush for example. It's got TONS of spots to get to, and they don't really feel "cheap" as opposed to the others. Hell, some of them even have ladders to get in and out of (well ok, mainly just out).

    I really hope some of them (like Ambush, which I now love because of these spots) won't be nerfed in upcoming patches.

    Good, so I wasn't too far off.

    Are you guys just thinkin on fixing problems like that, or are you gonna kill off any exploits, like the fence on overgrown that lets you get ontop of the farmhouse?

    EDIT

    I really hope some of them (like Ambush, which I now love because of these spots) won't be nerfed in upcoming patches.

    I only know of one or two on Ambush, and none of them in any strategic place, maybe only one. You'll have to show me. I nkow there's one near the big open area in the center, but most people get gunned down trying to get to them.

    I honestly don't know what's going to happen with the map glitches. Keep sending them to me though.

    The "get out of the map" ones are much more serious than stuff like getting up on the walls in District. It's a fine line to walk between fixing glitches and fixing hidey-holes. There's definitely a gray area there, but I do know that I'm not the guy to make that call.

    I think it was Wolfy that showed us the ones in Ambush. I think the one you're referring to is the one where you run around on the tin roofs, the one I'm talking about is in the bombed out buildings. And I fucking love it, as I can defend both B and C (?) from it, and go something ridiculous like 40-2 while there.

    When I start my sniper challenges, do you think it would be worthwhile to use Overkill and carry and SMG or something on me? Or should I just man up and take in the DE?

    For sniper challenges it helps quite a bit to use Stopping Power. Without it you'll probably have to two shot most people and with a bolt action you often only get 1 chance. Don't use Overkill since it takes away Stopping Power.

    Had some pretty fun games tonight(the 2 I had before I lagged out X_x) Managed to play a few more games by myself cause I couldn't connect to anybody. Luck had it I got stuck on a match in Bog vs some guys from PA.

    Was that our Domination game that we won 201-72? Cause that was pretty epic win for us.

    Also: Hurray for being a 1 again, can't wait until I unlock 3x Frags.

    Great games tonight. That match on Bog was truly epic.

    Everyone should add my gamertag, Lach701, to their friend list.

    Yeah Lach, i'll add you...think you headshotted me on the bog before I lagged out.(Headshot me so hard my connection exploded >_<)

    Oh, anyone up for a new challenge? Try going through all Gillied up on any difficulty, but get caught at any chance. You will not survive past the part where you sneak past the tanks and the whole shitload of soldiers...well maybe you will. I died on easy -_-

    Has anyone noticed that the lag is more significant in this game than most when you shoot just before you die and it doesn't register with the server? It's really noticeable with RPGs. A good portion of the time that I'm attempting to get one off at an enemy who sees me, it'll make the launching sound with smoke around me, then I'll get shot and it will not have launched.

    Where's it at?

    For that matter, where's this fence in Overgrown? Basically, if it involves clever jumping and can be done without standing on somebody, you're probably okay. If it involves glitching through geo, it's an exploit.

    I think the one in Ambush that Kris is refering to isn't an exploit. The one in Overgrown, next to the wooden bridge on the side of the river with the farm. There's this very small house at the end of the bridge. Take a left there and it will come out to the back side of the farm house. There is a dumpster there, you can hop ontop of it, and then hop ontop of the big brick wall and either walk to the farm house, or go over the wooden bridge and get on top of the house in the back corner.

    The Overgrown ones are okay (and awesome, in the case of the wood bridge one). Generally, if there's mantling involved it's almost certainly intentional, like getting on top of the farmhouse.

    yeah i've started treating it like a game mechanic, it seems like if someone's tossing explosives or launching rockets, if i Head shot them before the explosive goes off or impacts anything it just ceases to exist.

    I've noticed a lot that whenever I come face to face with an enemy and we shoot each other on at the same time, it'll look like I get like 7-10 bullets out before I die but on their killcam I'm lucky if I see one.

    This happens a lot to me too. I have a bad habit of accidentally clicking the right stick when i'm trying to aim so I end up slashing air with my knife instead of firing my gun and I usually don't see me slashing my knife in the kill cam.

    Ugh..I always get the worse possible people when im playing sabotage.

    Last 2 games I had when my team killed the bomb carrier they just let the bomb sit there, usually next too the area the enemy needs to bomb.

    and last game my team decided to cover every area but the one where the bomb was...right outside our base.

    never going to get above a .30 in wins again

    Were you playing with us last night? Hardcore on Overgrown. We got spanked, but I was something like 19 and 5. The opposite team's highest kill was something like... 13 and 10. Everyone else on my team was around 6.

    I was awarded my first Counter-C4 challenge ever today!

    I was sniping in the building in the back alleys on Crash and one of my teammates had left some C4 around the corner but got tired of no one showing up so he wandered off.

    An enemy ran around the corner and I didn't have time to make a careful shot so I tried to hit him with my wobbly scope and completely missed. But while that shot completely missed the guy, I accidentally hit the C4 on the ground and blew the guy up.

    It seems helicopters rape on Ambush. I earned one helo, which quickly gave me another helo, which gave me a third helo (didn't get to use the last one before the match ended, though). It was so fast that I had to wait for the first one to leave before I could use the second. I felt kind of bad for the other team as I laughed maniacally.
