Battlefield Bad Company


Recommended Posts

I've not received it yet, but I wouldn't mind telling them what I think about the game :p

edit: wait, why are MGS conducting the survey for a game made by EA/DICE :huh:

Believe me, I told them what I thought about it!

You are receiving this message because you are part of the MGS Beta program.

This is the part I don't get. :huh:

This couldnt have been for the beta. The end of survey asked alot of questions about Conquest.

Microsoft is planning on buying DICE, making it a 1. party developer.

Yes going to go with Massiveterra and have to doubt you. :p Turns out after looking through some old emails, and signing into my account at the MS Connect site, I signed up for some MGS Beta Program awhile back.

I completely forgot that I did it. This is the first time I've gotten any sort of communication from MGS.

Does Anybody have a spare that they dont need, getting the unlock for the Sniper rifle is basing my decision on getting the game, as the rest of the 5 for 5 are easily gettable to a degree.

so far what iv played while borrowing it from a friend is its pretty cool.

Pretty much everyone here does not have the sniper rifle unlock, in fact I do not know of 1 person who does have it. Having that unlocked though should not be the decision maker in getting the game though :) You mention you have played it a little so you know what it's like, buy it, you won't regret it :)

I had a funny team kill the other night. I was stuck in a house, only way out easily was a door so I went to knife it and for some damn, unexplained reason, a teammate was right behind me and jumped in front. BAM! Knifed him and the door! I couldn't stop laughing.

As far as the MP compared to CoD4, BF is hands-down more fun. I was really high on CoD4 when it came out and I loved it but as time went on and BF came out, I found the MP so much more fun and exciting on BF. I went and tried CoD4 MP the other day to see if I could get back into it. 15 minutes later I was done and since I beat the SP, I'll be trading it in. I'm not sure I can even explain why that is. It just didn't feel right at all. BF is a game you can join in at any time and have fun with. If you aren't leveled up on CoD4, forget it.

It will be released as either part of paid DLC or for free in a foreseeable future, that's what they said.

Well that's good to know (Y) As long as the DLC isn't for the gun alone, then that'll be ok. They should bundle it with new maps or game modes ala GRAW2 style.

I finally unlocked the Uzi last night after trying for ages to get in a match on the Demo. All I have left is the sniper obviously, but I won't even use it tbh, I just want it for completion sake.

Finally, have the house to myself for an entire week - late night gaming :woot:

Anyone playing tonight?

Think my guild will be raiding old content tonight, so I may all of a sudden loose my internet right when we start, and appear on x360. If not I'll be on at some point.

If I went back to playing like I did, I could easily do that :p But I'm that bored of the game I can't play for long sessions anymore.

I've ordering chinese takeaway and will maybe watch a tv/movie, then I'll be back on. So probably around 10. Maybe earlier.

Hey Munky, are you the Noodle Doodle Man?

HeHe

God I feel old, I remember that advert and Jon Pertwee singing the song :(

So I finished the Demo to earn the Uzi, plenty of games going on last night.

@Sethos and Munky, I remember playing a week ago or so, and a question came up about the physics engine used, it is indeed Havok. It says so in the trademark screen.

Also, is it true that if you play the SP on Hard, the acheivements do not stack, and you dont get normal difficulty acheivements at same time?

That is correct the achievements do not stack, which is why they have seperate achievements for each level. The gold/weapon finding is different, in that you can unluck the achievement in any level, you but in order to gain the found them all achievement you have to replay each level to find the missing ones. Handily when you finish the game, there is a list of levels you can replay with a list of what you missed 3 gold 2 weapons etc ...

Yeah most games have seperate achievements per level for each difficulty, but alot of them stack.

Oh Well.

    • I just looked on my computer and there are settings and log files for utilities I have never even turned on!
    • O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 by Razvan Serea O&O ShutUp10 offers a simple yet effective way to take control of your Windows privacy. It provides access to almost 50 privacy-related tweaks, most of them hidden or not easily accessible to the average computer users. Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10/11 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated. Using ShutUp10 you can easily disable Windows Defender, turn off telemetry, disable peer-to-peer updates, turn off Wi-Fi Sense, disable automatic Windows updates, turn off and reset Cortana and more. ShutUp10 allows you to create a System Restore point before you apply any changes, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days! O&O ShutUp10 Free and Premium The latest version brings O&O ShutUp10 Premium, expanding the app’s long-standing privacy controls with automatic enforcement of user-defined settings. Instead of manually rechecking options after every Windows update, users can set their preferred privacy configuration once—or apply recommended settings in a single click—and the tool continuously monitors them in the background. If Windows 10 or 11 re-enables disabled features or introduces new data collection paths, Premium restores the chosen settings automatically without user intervention. The free version remains available and fully functional for manual adjustments, offering the same core privacy controls for Windows. However, the Premium tier is aimed at users who want long-term, hands-off protection, adding automatic reapplication after updates, ongoing monitoring, and optional notifications to ensure privacy settings remain consistent over time. O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 changelog: Added “Show Differences” button in the overview panel “Don’t show again” option for the restore point prompt Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut for search/filter functionality Detection and linking of system-wide and user-specific setting associations Automatic search while typing PREM: Option to preserve notification counters and timestamps across application restarts PREM: Reset blocked settings button in the Settings dialog PREM: Informational message when no settings are blocked PREM: Update check can also be triggered from the menu PREM: Notification deduplication and activity log summary feature Improved L005 “Disable Windows Location Service”: Version-specific split (up to Windows 11 23H2) and new variant for Windows 11 24H2+ L001 (Disable Location): Added Night Light warning to the description in all languages Search now detects setting IDs even when ID display is disabled and offers to enable it Detection and removal of Copilot/AI desktop apps in RecallTerminator Optimized High DPI support PREM: Reset button is now only enabled when blocked items exist – setting IDs are shown in the confirmation dialog PREM: Updated tray icons with higher-resolution versions PREM: Activity Log timestamps now use localized date and time formats PREM: Tray icon status now uses OK/Warning indicators and localized tooltips PREM: Recall folder detection switched to service-based detection PREM: Copilot uninstallation now provides UI feedback and improved verification Fixed Description text was not displayed correctly for the last item and disappeared when clicking the scrollbar Crash when clicking a search result heading or the […] button PREM: Installation path is now correctly preserved during upgrades PREM: Tray icon was not reliably removed when exiting the application PREM: Main window was not displayed correctly in single-instance mode PREM: Incorrect display of the & symbol in tray icon tooltips on Windows 10 PREM: Fixed notification flooding after sleep/standby PREM: Dashboard was not refreshed after applying recommended settings during onboarding PREM: Progress bar was not reset after deleting Recall folders PREM: Fixed service startup failures PREM: Fixed incorrect drift detection when Automatic Protection was disabled PREM: Notifications now correctly count all deviating settings when protection is enabled PREM: Registration Wizard was shown after sleep/standby despite a valid license Download: O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 | 76.4 MB (Freeware) Download: O&O ShutUp10 32-bit | ARM64 View: O&O ShutUp10 Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Fascinating...W h i t e P o w e r is now also asterisks out.  
    • In the past few days I have noticed two odd moderation activities. First, when I posted the term 'White Nationist Christian' it was asterisk's out. When I changed it to **** it was allowed! Second, in the Politics is a ###business thread I was allowed to post that the GOP is a party of p e d ophiles but I was censored  when I posted the GOP are a party of p e d ophile protectors. Wtf Neowin. Please explain.
