Battlefield Bad Company


Recommended Posts

Well, just like COD4, I consider the BFBC MP a good "go-to" game when there's nothing else to play and I have 30 mins of free time.

Yeah I pretty much fall into that category too. Although it will probably take me a while before I start missing / want to play again :laugh:

:p

I borrowed BF off my friend, played about half of the campaign and quit.

Just couldn't get into it :(

:p

that was the problem right there. i personally only played about 30 minutes of the single player, but clocked in 40+ hrs on the multiplayer

Ya think? He has to come back and play the new maps. I need more routes to take...from him ;) :p

new "munkey" routes

:p

I still havent finished the SP. On last map though. And ive had the game since release day. It just started to get really boring to me.

Exactly. :yes:

I have played every BF game since 1942 came out (except 2142...pos) and i play BFBC all the fuggin time!!

The four maps do get tiresome but i happen to love Gold Rush. Glad to hear about FOUR new maps, was also wondering when they were coming but was under the impression it was only 2 (lazy research!)

Strike (BF2) was one of the best BF maps ever created. Jalalabad or whatever was pretty good too imo.

The problem is in fact, there is not a lot of people playing this anymore cause of the lacking MP and like Munky said it will be hard to turn fans back to it with such stronger titles coming out these upcoming seasons

Really? I thought it might have some steam left in it. I used to play BFMC quite a lot and that was pretty popular even after a year on XBL.

Ah well, all good things come to an end etc etc.

I often see a lot of reoccurring players like at least 3 or 4 on either side i recognize days apart so i mean, the population can't be too large i assume? Or maybe they are addicts like me? I think players will come back when the new maps are released.....hope so.

If there aren't that many players left on, I hope as well players start coming back.

I'm sure Munky remembers this, there was one point when him and I were playing Conquest, and for like 5 or 6 rounds, it was 6 on 1. Never had it so easy to win rounds LOL.

Haha that was classic. I remember by the 6th round or so we were totally taking advantage and just messing around. Then the server filled up all of a sudden and we had our ass kicked for a few minutes before we adjusted back to "serious" playing mode :p

Good times :yes:

Personaly, im a hard core pc gamers, all my fps's have have been on the pc (well apart from golden eye, but that game is in a class of its own)

So when i got a ps3, i was a little skeptical of getting a fps game, but i must say im very happy with bad company. Granted i would prefer using a mouse and keyboard for faster reactions and more precision, but i survive :)

Im still working on my "close quarters" fighting, but give me a sniper rifle and some nice open spaces with places to hide and im happy :)

The single player was cool, i loved the story and characters, though they weren't much use in a fire fight, or maybe they just couldnt keep up :)

I keep going back to the multiplayer, its alot of fun (when the servers aren't laggy) I prefer playing Oasis or the Harvest one on conquest (as they are good sniper maps)

anyway, im up for playing on the ps3 if anyone's interested :)

I had no problems in MP with groups, except one round it was 8-2, but I encountered that same problem at 2am when the game was first released. Just left and found another one.

Anyone down for playing tonight? I plan on hopping on around 7-8pm EST. I think one or two more games and I'll hit 24, so hitting 25 tonight would be awesome.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
