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)

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 :).

      Looks like no official TBW rating, which should be a required listing in my opinion for sites like Amazon (hell, put it on the box too.)

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I think I understood the article fine. Online password managers open users up to more possibilities of getting hacked, and due to KeePass being offline and local it reduces the idea of getting hacked. If someone chooses to put their database online they're kinda missing the point. With regards to the idea of the on-prem idea, I would have two issues. I'm not sure about the first issue, but I wouldn't be surprised about them offering a cloud storage for the passwords that most wouldn't bother to switch off, regardless of if they went for on-prem or not. The second issue is that the on-prem solution for Bitwarden costs money, whereas KeePass is free and open-source (as far as I am aware). The article points out how to sync the database between devices, and I recognise that deficiency in security. But it isn't a necessity. So both services can offer a same idea, but one is free and the other isn't...choices, choices.... But to each their own.

    • The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I am not surprised because life is the product of a lot of biochemical and physical processes that releases various energies as a by-product. The only thing new here is the detection of these photon emissions. The researches noted this "glow" is not a metaphysical one. They don't even immediately end when one is dead. Things like fires, light bulbs, and on a bigger scale stars release a lot more "light" and they are hardly alive.
