Has anybody actually gotten the M1 Garand?

Yes, on both the 360 and the PC. What I believe is happening on the PC version is a lot of servers have disabled the Veterans upgrades somehow.

Has anyone read the latest BLOG. Big 1up to DICE for getting EA's act together.

I do believe this will be the last time we see problems. But im keeping faith. So far DICE has worked EA hard. BTW, did you see the numbers

The 4 different soldier types have gathered a score of more than 34 Billion.

There's been more than 400M kills made.

1.3M roadkills

Squads and Teams have assisted each other to 6.2 Billion points.

Holy crap. I dont blame them for not predicting that, but jesus its been a week and no its time to show whats up.

I wont be playing till sunday, also Friends list came back and went away, your friends list isnt LOST for good, its just the servers and the syncing got broke. Mine came back then broke then came back and broke again.

Until then ill be playing COD4, anyone wish to join me add me on xfire: sikhism.

Yeah, just read the blog entry. Hopefully, whatever they do fixes it for good because the taking down of servers is a bit annoying. I will admit, though, haven't had the kind of problems on 360 as PC, thankfully.

I'd say don't get your hopes up, sadly. When they say something is going to fix all the problems it's too good to be true. Is this supposed to happen shortly?

According to the blog, it started roughly 30 minutes ago (3:00 EST). No word on how long it'll take, just that the servers will be down at 3:00 EST on the 12th (today) and the 13th.

I got my Xbox pre order version from Amazon.co.uk

The game was meant to come with a code for early access to a gun (they mentioned it being an AK47 but that wasn't actually it as the game doesn't have an AK47)

Anyone know how to unlock this?

PS. XBL name is MalixL if you want to add me

Is any one else having trouble with the official Bad Company 2 website? I've never viewed it, but whenever I try to navigate there the stupid age gate says I'm under age. I've even cleared my cache and it still always says I'm under age.

I really hate those stupid age verification things. They are completely useless and do nothing but annoy. I really wish websites would stop using them.

Nah never had any issues with it other than it being incredibly slow and the My Soldier part not working yet at all (they pulled it).

You're looking at ~20 FPS with medium settings at 1680x1050. I recommend the Radeon HD 5770. You'll get ~50 FPS or more (depending on your specs) plus DX11 goodies. The cheapest ones go for about $140 USD.

Alright my specs are i7 860 Running at 2,8 and 6GB Ram. I Think im gonna buy tomorow an HD 5770 :D

This game is like crack, (when i can get in and play) but last night was fine connection wise. Finally getting better and receiving more than 1 medal/pin a round. Tons of fun.

+1

Never spent so much time playing 1 game and above all else even enjoying it when my team loses!

Awesome specs. It'll definitely run well on your system. (Y)

haven't played this game in a couple of days, been rallying FF. With all the server issues seems like i'm not missing much yet...

I guess I could say the same, haha.

Same here. I stepped away for a few days, hoping that they would sort out the server issues while I was gone. Looks like that wasn't the case, lol.

Going to (try) to play today though. I don't want to fall further behind in rank than I already have :).

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30

      By Copernic · Posted

      FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
