I really cant see why the m60 is band on the server :wacko: the m60 is as much as a problem as the cg, or 40mm grenade. And to me banning the m60 just says "i cant play the game", i used to see it as a problem but now i don't, just see it as a part of the game, and plus if i happen to be against a team full of m60 medics, i just destroy them with the cg, its even better when they revive each other, get multikills then :)

No, it isn't like that all. These aren't noob server admins. The M60 will be the only weapon that is forbidden.

That's against the EA server ROE - very likely to get their server shut down:

2. RULES AND POLICIES FOR ALL SERVER ADMINISTRATORS MANAGING RANKED SERVERS (PUBLIC OR PRIVATE)

These are rules and policies that all people running ranked servers are expected to observe. Failure to do so can result in the server being delisted.

(...)

2.3.1 Disallowed “In-House” Ranked Server Rules:

Server Administrators may not implement or enforce server rules on ranked servers that prohibit players from using any roles, kits, weapons, vehicles or other features of the game while playing on their server (...)

I don't have a problem with the grenade launcher or Carl Gustav. It's the damn M60. Ever play against a team full of M60 Medics? Worst. Game. Ever. You kill one or two and get mowed down by the rest and watch as the two guys you just killed get revived. If anything, EA/DICE should nerf the M60.

My favorite mode to play in the game is SQDM. You guys are not alone.

probably because we are call of duty players

carl gustav is a ****...

and speaking of kits, assault needs an m4, an ak47 or at least more guns to unlock...

hardcore SQDM servers are my fave. love no crosshair too. It's ridiculous how good i am at killing people at stupid far distances with the gernade launcher with no crosshair....

Had some good games tonight, about 20 kills from getting my Platinum Star on the AN-94 Abakan (Y)

The cheater/hackers accusers are out in force it seems now. Had accusations thrown my way twice now, in as many weeks. That sort of gets to me.

I can't stand getting blown up randomly by those two things :( M60 I can stand because at least I have a chance to do something about it.

Baddies are always jealous when someone can do well not using a well known overpowered weapon. That +muno+ person has twice as many kills with the 40mm gl than anything else, and more time with it than any other weapon as well.

Yeah, whenever I notice that a team I'm on is getting steam rolled I always ask in the all chat how many medics are on the other team. The typical response is someone stating that we should stop using cg's or the gl. Fight fire with fire I guess. :sleep:

Anyways, the M60 will be dealt with hopefully early this next week. We can hope! :wacko:

You know you're hated in BC2 when you have a platinum star for the Carl Gustav.

Or the M60whistle.gif

What if I have both :whistle: :p

TBH the constant whining about overpowered weapons that each class has is getting pretty annoying. For me at least. And regarding the M60, I do hope they'll make it less accurate because sniping with it (and shotguns...) is stupid, but weaken as well? Psh, other classes have one-hit-kill weapons...

I kind of lost interest in this a while back, same maps and same crap unfortunately. Looking forward to maybe picking it back up after this break with the new Catalyst drivers which should alleviate my loading issues.

when are the new drivers going to be released?

Just play in dx9, with the newest drivers you can force aa in dx9 so its basically as good as dx10.

10.4b didnt fix my dx10 loading times so I switched to dx9 yesterday and forced aa, now I loud in like 10 seconds vs 40.

Because in DX9 there's graphics anomalies, who want that? ( Smoke issues etc. )

Tried playing once in DX9 and the flickering trees, sky, ground, every other texture was enough to give me a headache after 5 minutes so I gave up and stuck with the long load times.

@Churchonsundays The drivers should be available within the next week or so.

This is actually the first time I've heard a lot of hate towards the Carl Gustav. Personally, I've never considered it to be much a problem, but maybe I've just lucked out and never ran into a CG spammer.

The M60 on the other hand needs to be fixed. You know there's a problem when a Medic has the most powerful weapon in the game and they can snipe with it. I'm torn with regards to the 40 mm grenades, though. While I've never considered them to be that bad, I'm clearly in the minority on that one. Maybe tone them down so that only a direct hit can kill with full health (as opposed to hitting a wall close to an enemy and killing them even though they have full health).

I get flickering ground pretty rarely (only when I'm dead) and I don't get flickering trees and sky at all.

    • Tixati 3.43 by Razvan Serea Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS. Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder. It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.) When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive. Tixati has the following features: detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads peer connection encryption for added security full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress 100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available Tixati 3.43 changelog: Several major DHT improvements Added several screening heuristics to filter malicious DHT nodes, prevent Sybil floods Rewrote DHT search algorithms to add support for multi-path lookups Improved DHT logging, more details in several error messages Extended timeout lengths for outgoing queries over I2P Added incoming query / response per second to DHT table status display Updated Regex engine to PCRE2 Faster Search function, scans channel user profiles in much less time Fixed problems with file name parsing and date handling in RSS Faster and more accurate RSS filtering and episode number detection Several optimizations to global text processing functions, such as UTF-8 cleaning, line splitting, and token parsing Complete update of port-mapping UPNP/NAT-PMP engine, added PCP support, mapping over VPN support, and more Several refinements to default gateway detection on Windows / Android, which is used for port-mapping Support for IPv6 interface-scoped addresses, which is sometimes needed for IPv6 gateway detection and port mapping Full support for PCP port remapping, added backup zero-port query in case requested port is rejected New UPNP/NAT-PMP Monitor in Help > Diagnostics New reflected local port/location tracker that analyzes DHT replies to detect true port/location and NAT mapping type New TCP/UDP Ports monitor in Help > Diagnostics, with several statistic and information tabs, and a detailed event log Calculated/reflected local port is now used for port parameter in tracker queries and peer handshake Fixed several problems with Linux Wayland compatibility Completely replaced tray icon functions in Linux, new SNI implementation is now the default with GSI backup Implemented full DBus-Menu server to be used by new SNI tray icon implementation Replaced Linux tray balloon notification DBus client Rewrote auto-shutdown DBus interface for Linux Rewrote sleep inhibit DBus interface for Linux Dropped deprecated Linux dbus-glib dependencies Completely new Windows asynchronous file handling, now using IOCP model with several block-alignment optimizations Better handling of system network resets and interface down/up cycles Added option to fully clear configuration in Settings > Import/Export Remember last option checkboxes when using Import/Export Fixed minor I2P incoming connection routing problems Much faster I2P vanity host name finder Much faster channel user vanity key finder Raised length limit for torrent tracker remote failure messages to 120 from 64 Fixed problems setting download location on a torrent before the meta info is resolved Added location/MOC paths to category pane tooltips Several minor Web Interface fixes Refinements to static and scrolling ellipsizing layout routines Several fixes and improvements to single and multi-line text edit controls Many other minor fixes throughout the user interface A major overhaul of the Android framework has also been done: API target raised to 35, page alignment set to 16K Rewrote all inset processing routines Full rewrite of foreground service, application, and main activity objects New permission request routines Added multi-cast lock request before UPNP/LPDP discovery operations Fixed file permission and locking problems when loading .torrent from web browsers Fixed problems with Z-ordering of modal / non-modal and popup windows Fixed handling of back gesture on newer OS Added status bar icon

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
