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.

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
