I had a game like that a couple of days ago, conquest panama map, roof top at C point, knifed a pair of recons on my way up the stairs, when I got to the roof there were 4 more recons who were spread out with their backs to me, I knifed them all lol

Finally got some more Platinum Stars - the XM8 Compact and PP (Y) Got 3 altogether, the other being the M60. Which has now been banned on my favourite server. And everyone loves that rule (Y)

Technically though no server can ban any guns use. They better be careful because if someone wants to be a jackass they can report the server to EA. And if it happens enough times..

That's only if it's a ranked server though. Which most are.

how the hell do you ban a gun :/ Just kick people who use it. I'd to ban the tanks on my server (our server mainly plays Squad Team Deathmatch) but i don't think the other admins will allow it haha

I tried the M60 with the special ammo you guys said and the 4x zoom and it sucked. Way too much recoil for me. :no:
You are doing it wrong. Try burst fire ;)

When you join the server, you get a welcome message as well as a message saying the use of the M60 is prohibted. Anyone caught using the M60 will be issued a warning, continued usage results in kick/ban. Been on it for most of the day, and it works perfect. In fact I would say all the players appreciated it.

Anybody else getting terrible performance lately? I haven't played 2 weeks and now the game just feels GFX laggy :blink:

The only change I made was to update to the Catalyst 10.4 Beta BC2 loading hotfix driver...

CPU: Phenom I x4 9850 BE @ 2.5ghz

RAM: 3GB 800mhz DDR2

GFX: XFX Radeon HD5770 1GB GDDR5

OS: Win7 32bit

Settings all high @ 1920x1080, 1x AA 1x AF HBBAO = off V-Sync = off

Used to run buttersmooth before....

Regardless, if someone wants to cause a stink they can. But there are other servers so it shouldn't even be a problem for anyone. Just letting you know that if someone wants to cause trouble they can.

I don't use the m60, or even play medic anyways. :laugh:

Lol ulot are so bad at the game. I got all those fancy badges when I rented the game for 5days from LoveFilm.

How can you be level 21 and just get the Nemesis Badge... :blink:

We can't all be pro like you. Teach us how to be good please.

yeah right, i still dont got nemesis badge yet and im rank 24, not to be fancy but i can play fps game pretty well.

I downloaded the game off of Steam yesterday.

Needless to say, it has been a while since I've played a shooter like this on the computer (Team Fortress 2 is my other MP game on the comp). My KD ratio is about 0.8 at this point, I'm hoping I can get it above 1 once I get the hang of the game. I love it so far, though. :)

I don't even worry about KD ratio anymore... on any game. I just go into it having fun.

First, I'm getting older so my twitch skills can't really compete with the 18 year old.

Secondly, sometimes suicide is fun. In TF2, I go by Kamikaze Pyro. Guess which class

I play. :)

So Burst fire with 4x or what?

I won't be using the combo forever, I just want to test it. I have used the M60 by itself with no-addons and I pwn with it anyways.

I think there's issues with the current R9 server files, Punkbuster, and the Play Now! button not populating servers like it should. The few games I've been in this week the servers has been really full.

I'm kind of taking a break from the game until the patch that comes out hopefully next week though. I really hope this isn't true but I heard (no sources) that the M16 and AN-94 are going to be nerfed along with the M60 and M1911. There's absolutely no reason for that if it's true. On the other hand, on one of the dev's twitters I read that all assault rifles will have their damage drop off range extended. Be interesting to see what the patch does this next week.

Are less and less people playing this game these days? I joined multiple matches yesterday, and many times there was only like 2-4 people total playing on the map. Every map was like ghost town.

There's been a problem with the xbla servers with matchmaking. Dice hasn't updated us on this yet

Yeah x4, Magnum Ammo styled with burst fire. Obviously you need to do some work, like aim for the head. Hell even in CQC you don't need to go scope. Just spray, 100 clip of ammo lasts for ages mate.

R9 caused some major problems. Like random lagging and rubberbanding. But past few days, all my regular servers have been packed!

I'm having no issues finding games.

I'm having issues finding games without a lot of flamewh0res and noob tube spammers though. I can appreciate using 40mm grenades for clearing buildings but when you're in tight spaces and someone pops a 40mm at you :wacko:

What's your gamertag/EA ID then?

    • You're absolutely right! No reason in hell these should be on the road!
    • They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • 24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though
    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event.

Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter.

They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations. Furthermore, when it comes to the connectivity, it is provided through Bluetooth 5.4. Additional features include an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, in-ear detection, a low-latency mode, and a Find My Earbuds function. Moreover, through the Nothing X app for Android and iOS, users can access custom EQ settings, a bass enhancement algorithm, customisable controls, Find My Earbuds, low-latency mode, dual-device connectivity, an ear tip fit test, and firmware updates. The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery.
