I love the fact that platoon emblems (custom ones) are shown in the game on the soldiers uniform.

Cool. Which version will you be getting? I plan on buying the PC version this time around.

I don't mean to brag, but (even when high as a kite) this game is easy. I know that boils down to the players on the other team... Guess a bunch of 12 yr olds downloaded the beta on Xbox 360 :rofl: . I havent even bothered to switch from a US Assaulter with a RDS on the initial entry gun.

P.S. - is there a way to link specific game battlelogs? It isn't as easy to find as is for BF3; I'd love to show off 'squad wipe'x5 in 1 round + various stats.

Edit: What happen to gun recoil? oh and the starting Assaulter pistol sucks ass, regardless of headshots.

Out of interest what platform do you play BF3 on?

I've played for over 100 hours on 360 and I cannot for the life of me get use to weapons in that game. They feel so inconsistent, bordering on broken.

PC.

It does feel better, at least to me, on PC than on both the consoles. Don't know if its just me

I'm picking it up soonish. I'm not much of a war FPS gamer, but I am putting preference towards DX11 games so there ya go.

Nice, i did not realize this was a DX11 game. I also got the 50% off for being a BF3 premium member, so going to pick this up for PC no doubt.

Everything using Frostbite 2 is DX10/11 only.

I don't think EA has anything DX9 left on new titles outside of Sims 3 and Mass Effect 3 (no idea about their sports games though.)

Good point. :laugh: Totally zoned out there, but indeed, it is a Frostbite 2 game.

Actually now very excited for the game, and I am just interested in the SP campaign. A good MP is just an added bonus for me.

Glad you got yours, I just tried to get mine, and I decided I did not want to use PayPal but my Credit Card at the last step, went back to change to my credit card, and now Origin is telling me my code is no longer valid as it has already been used, even though I never even opened the PayPal site, never-mind actually purchased anything.

To add insult to injury, I decided to use the Live Chat feature, talked to a nice enough guy, he was pretty understanding, gave me a new code, which was completely a different format from the original code for being a BF3 Premium member, and that new code just straight up said invalid. I left the guy on chat as I thought that may happen, and all he could say was he escalated it to someone who will email me to hopefully resolve the issue. I swear, if I somehow get screwed out of the 50% promotion, I will not be a happy camper.

      Likely nothing will be done in corporate America, there have been countless Tesla self-driving incidents. Then again, there have also been countless human operated incidents. It's literally daily news here in Canada, to the extent that it's now odd if we get a day where a collision doesn't get announced on the radio throughout the day...
    • SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on

      By Steven P. · Posted

      SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on by Steven Parker I was offered the chance to test out the SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500, and full disclosure, they let me keep it regardless of my findings. Anyway, I jumped at the chance due to my long hours sitting at my desk, mousing around. Apologies for the knife cut across the top of the box; that was my doing, being a bit too heavy-handed with opening up the outer packaging. First up, what's in the box: SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 1x Type-C charging cable User Manual 1-Year Warranty (card) In short, everything you need to get started. According to the official Amazon listing, here are the key features: Full-Hand Air Compression: OS500 wraps your fingers, palm, and wrist with multi-chamber air compression for a complete hand relaxation experience. The extended massage chamber helps cover more of the hand and wrist area than standard palm-only hand massagers Palm Kneading with 6 Modes & 6 Intensities: Built-in palm kneading rollers add a hands-on massage feel, while 6 preset modes and 6 pressure levels let you choose the comfort level that fits your day—from gentle relaxation to a firmer full-hand massage 3 Heat Levels with Cooling Fan: Choose from 104°F, 113°F or 122°F warmth to suit different seasons and comfort preferences. The built-in cooling fan helps reduce stuffiness during heated sessions, keeping your hand feeling fresh and comfortable Easy Visual Display & Smart Timer: The digital image display clearly shows massage area, mode, intensity, heat level, and remaining time at a glance. Select 10, 15, or 20-minute sessions for quick office breaks, evening relaxation, or everyday hand care Rechargeable, Cordless & Comfortable: A 3000mAh battery supports over 90 minutes of full-function use on a full charge, with convenient USB-C charging. The soft inner lining, smooth ABS/PU finish, and premium black-gold design make OS500 ideal for home, office, or gifting With all that out of the way, here are my own findings. I gave it a try on both left and right hands, and as you can maybe see from the above YouTube Short, (sorry for the shaky video), my whole hand fits in, but my wrist barely enters the Hand Massager. I was able to push through a bit more with my fingertips extending out the other end to get a bit of massaging on the start of my wrist. Usage For some reason, there is a strap that is very difficult to fasten to my wrist with one hand. I am not sure what function it has, and it isn't mentioned in the user manual. The only thing I could find was in the product images that claimed "wrist precision". Unlike the Bob and Brad Hand Massager, this device does not massage the wrist anyway, even though a "wrist mode" is mentioned, which must be for smaller hands than I have, as it is mainly intended for the hand and fingers. In addition, for its steeper price, there are no disposable gloves provided in the box, which is a bit of an issue considering the internal cover (which appears to be elasticated nylon) cannot be removed for washing; so you are left with only one choice: always thoroughly wash your hands before using it. I can imagine this thing getting a bit grimy after a period of use, and that is a bit of a shame. With that said, the buttons on the device, from left to right, do the following: Heat button: 3-level heat control at 104°F, 113°F, or 122°F Mode button: Auto mode Circular mode Soothing mode Relax mode Palm and fingers mode Palm and wrist mode Intensity button: from (First-time users) 15Ka, 25Ka, 35Ka, 45Ka, 55Ka, 60Ka (Intensive relief) Knead button: on or off (6 pressure levels) Power button: Long-press to turn on or off Cooling button: turn on or off the cooling fan Also, in the product imagery, it states there are 36 "custom modes," but nowhere is it listed what these modes are. I can only imagine that they mean a combination of all of the above settings in different intensity levels. The device itself seems to rely on a single "kneading" mechanism located at the palm area of the hand, which spins when in use, and the other massage features are mainly utilized through the air sacs, increasing and decreasing at various levels on the hand and fingers. I am not sure it offered too much relief for someone who is typing and operating a mouse for hours at a time; further testing may be required. It does feel nice, though. Finally, you may be wondering how this fits into the scope of a tech website? Well, let me tell you something: sometimes I sit for up to 15 hours working on Neowin, and although I take breaks in between, it takes a toll on my body. I think in the immediate absence of a partner to apply relief, a good massager like this Hand Massager can shed the strains of the day in just a couple of 15-minute bursts. On the official website, this has an MSRP of $99.99, but luckily for our readers, it is selling at $10 off for just $89.99 right now on Amazon. SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 for $89.99 (with $10 off coupon), $99.99 MSRP For me, this gets a thumbs hands(?) down. However, it could be improved by making it so that the protective covering could be removed and thrown into the washing machine, or get yourself some disposable gloves to use with it.
