Team didn't find me until the end, and I need to work on my sniping skills again =/

@trag3dy Same here, thought I got kicked at first ha ha.

Playing recon is so boring. I have tried it a few times, and the only good things are the motion detectors and the C4 to below stuff up. Sitting there sniping away in the hills like you did has no appeal to me whatsoever.

New map with trag3dy, most say one of the worst teams I played with though.

I spotted for Trag3dy,friend and whoever else. Although I generally play Assault or Engineer

I really do0o hate snipers when you're attacking. It so bloody annoying, and then when we move up they're still sat there with their binoculars looking for people to shoot! It aggravates me so much.

Yep, the new map seems quite fun, very chaotic. But our team sucked bad bad bad. I should have took a screen shot of my awards. I got my second platinum and the award for getting 2 platinum stars. Nice 20k points. :laugh:

Well it was on a conquest map and it was guarding one of the flags so it was really quite a useful spot. It was funny that it took them the entire match to find where he was sitting because there was me and another guy jumping off the cliff every so often with a parachutes being very easily noticeable.

Edit: Also apparently the alternate outfits are the from the dr pepper promotion only I assume:

@iKiddo The Paid DLC is the Dr. Pepper Promotion. You have to buy Dr. Pepper, collect codes, and submit them. No news on release date

Lame, most likely an American only thing.

Yeah, the Dr Pepper promotions are for the US only. At least the one for Mass Effect 2 was/is. That doesn't mean someone from the US can't give you a code though.

Just decided to check out the new Conquest map for a round, and I experienced my first ever crash to desktop issue. Fantastic. :laugh:

Was weird, at one point during an explosion the screen flickered on and off and went white for a brief second, but it did not crash. A few minutes later another explosion, and just crashed to the desktop. No message, nothing. The only thing I have updated in awhile is my audio drivers, but I did play the other day with no issues at all after updating them, so wondering if it is just something that was enabled with the new maps.

My friend has had the "CTD - Crash to desktop" issue last week after the patch. Seems to be a common problem, although why it happens.. and when it happens seems to be completely random.

I've also had the crash to desktop, but it's been so rare I just ignore it and go back to playing. Although sometimes I think it is my computer telling me it's time to go to bed, since usually it happens after 2 AM :laugh:

Weirdest one was still last night when the whole team crashed...

Okay cool, hoping it was just a weird one time thing.

I also realized the other thing I did was move my Creative Sound Card from the bottom PCI-E slot to the top one closer to my GPU, just in case down the road I decide to SLi even though I doubt I will, but now I am wondering if that is messing with things somehow. I highly doubt it, but trying to just think of what has changed, since I have played the game without a single crash up until today.

I think the issue is that Bad Company 2 is very finicky, like Killmaster said last night when we were playing the entire team crashed out of the server. I think there is just some server side issues that cause the game to crash for people when a packet isn't sent correctly.

ever since the patch i've been getting multiplayer CTD's... pretty sporadic when it happens though.

my 5770 and my 4gigs of ocz ddr2 1066 ram came in today. time to OC my q9550 to 4 ghz when i get home from work :devil:

Actually that was an EA issue. Our server got kicked also, and when we looked to see if the server was down, it was up and showing fine.. So it wasn't just you guys.

This wasn't a kick, most of our team crashed to desktop.

I just played literally the worst team EVER in rush arica harbor. We were defending the first mcoms, teams were evenly numbered, server was full. I had to go into their spawn and spawn camp just because I was so bored. They never even armed one mcom. I was just running around their spawn as engineer killing countless numbers of tanks while hardly being shot at. It was ridiculous lol.

We had the actual crash where our entire team crashed and then there was a disconnect a while later where they enabled the use of the new maps. That could possible be what you were thinking?

What servers do you guys play on?

Also, can anyone tell me how I can the stats from EA so I can my own signature that updates live? The "http://bfbc2.elxx.net/" does not display the signature images for me to use.

What ever has the lowest ping usually.

    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.
