99% of the time I am playing on our clan server, but it isn't full right now because we are working on adding Guardian and such

[PixilEyes]

Any neowin clan yet?

Once I updated my 260M it was a lot smoother for me.

Is it me or is Laguna Presa not very fun in Rush? The environment is fantastic but it needs more vehicles. Too much running around. I also could not hear any M-COMS being set. No alarm sound. Not sure what that is about (on 360).Also, it's not fun playing 4 v 8. Is auto balance that hard to implement?

Personally I love the new maps, they're very chaotic and fun. As for the alarms there is a bug where the defending team can't hear them apparently. :pinch:

i played one of the rush ones yesterday (forgot what it was called). Attacking the last part of it was not easy AT ALL...

It doesn't work. For the PC there is a 3rd party server program called Guardian which is trying to enable it, the problem is instead of auto moving people it just kicks a random person.. So yeah.. Thanks DICE for the Auto balancing not working

I dont like that on rush either. I love arica on conquest though, but for some reason everyone hates it :/

[mattmatik]

Has anyone heard if DICE is aware of the audio bug where the Defenders cannot hear the charges being set?? It really needs to get fixed but I haven't seen a mention on their website or Twitter.PS - had a "fantastic" 6 v 11 match earlier on White Pass. Yeah, that was complete garbage. Took the other team no time at all to camp our deployment so it was an easy slaughter and easy points for them. Ridiculous.

Anyone played with any of the DICE guys yet? Had a few games with them last night. They completely destroyed us :D

should have told them to fix the game...

Yeah because I am about to **** on their achivements, lets be honest. After all this moaning, we are all still playing it aren't we? Not to mention that we got some freebies yesterday, in the form of some 'new' maps. I certainly wasn't going to wreck the mood, by being a whiny ******.

You mean they just unlocked content already on the disc. The content we paid for when we bought the game.

Just unlocked VSS!!!

[PixilEyes]

Congrats. What is that 1st pin?

[Livin in a box]

I had a match today where next to everyone on the other team were sniping on Isla Innocents...it got kinda annoying because they couldn't push up so we were stuck being sniped at, with me running all over the place with my defibrillator.

[bloodrain]

one of the worst games i've ever played

[planetik]

it was a joke...

Uhh, it shouldn't be a joke. This POS is hard crashing, BSOD'ing, CTD'ing in a boatload of systems, including mine. I shouldn't have to mess around with every setting imaginable to get it to work, (it's still flaky by the way) when all my other games work perfectly. Also, ATI load times vs Nvidia load times? WTF?

It's a great game - when it works. I regret paying so much for it.

[mattmatik]

It is a great game and I keep coming back to play it but DICE should jump on some of these issues right now. They have the momentum in online FPS and if they let some of these issues linger it WILL come back to haunt them. In other news had another go on White Pass Conquest and...same thing. Team got camped on in the Deployment zone. I have a feeling sooner or later we are going to see nothing but Medics playing. I don't see a whole lot of Assault guys much now.

[Hedon]

I have found the game good, but not great. It will surely tide us over until the next shooter though.

[Singh400]

Can someone recommend another gun to use. I've have whored the crap out of M60 and the XM8 Compact. Need something in the same kind of power bracket.

Heard good stuff about the AN-94 Abakan, thoughts?

In that case I retract my mini-rant :)

Hence why I said 'new'.

Distinguished Artillery Combat - 100 kills using Mortar Strikes

I raped with the AEK-971. Just play with different ones and find one you like or just go back to using the OP M60 with 4x scope and snipe it up.

Probably my favourite gun in the game, although keep in mind that I've only been playing Assault. It fires in three-round bursts and the rate of fire is rather slow, so it's definitely not for everyone. However, I always slap on the 4x scope when I'm using it, and it's great for long range maps like Atacama Desert.

I'll usually switch between the AN-94 and the M416 depending on how well I'm playing. Some days, my aim is complete crap, so I switch to the M416 with the red dot sight and try to get some close-range kills.
