Rambo medic revive trains are another reason why I stopped playing for a while. It got to the point where usually the other team was about 50% medics. They're worse than an entire team full of CG spammers, imo.

I keep reading things like this not making me want to come back...

Yeah, I see so much hate directed at recon snipers but they are becoming less and less common. Noobs will be noobs and they're realizing that it's much easier to play either a CG spamming engineer or a medic to get a lot of points/kills. I'm not saying everyone who plays those two classes are noobs but when you see a team make up of 50% medic and 50% engineer..yeah...

That has been my experience before I decided to take a break anyways.

While it might reduce the amount of medics in the game it might encourage people to use explosives more though if people can't be revived when killed by them. I do agree that there needs to be a bleed out feature though so you can refuse revives if you want to.

Solution: ????

And here's a quote from one of the devs twitters (die twitter):

We have released more patches on PC with more features than console will ever get so you can't say we don't care about PC.

All those patches have done is give us features that Pc games have had for the last 10 years or more. They can't honestly think we should be grateful to have a server browser that is a hacked together mess. Exclusive pc balancing? Horrendous helicopter controls? What exclusive features besides the server browser has the Pc gotten? None that I can think of.

Jittery sniper scopes.

Any one else think the M95 has gone crap? All of a sudden I can't seem to kill people like I used to with the rifle, I've noticed less players using it as well, going with the GOL rifle or the M24 instead. :(

They nerfed the **** out of it in the last patch. They changed it's damage from 79 to 50 while leaving the damage modifiers as they were. That made it so it can't 1 shot people if they are wearing body armor even if you hit a headshot. They fixed that "bug" in the next patch.

Even after they "fix" it it will still be the worst bolt action rifle in the game.

Holy crap how good is the PKM LMG? I have been working on gettting gold stars on all the weapons (done Assault & Engineer). I got the gold star for the PKM LMG in one session. Literally like 3/4 maps.

Even easier than the CG. By far the hardest was the F2000 and the other RL you get the one that isn't tracer compatiable.

Currently working on the MG36 which is a bit of a chore.

My favourites have been broke for ages too. Luckily, history still works and that's how I join most games nowadays. Love it when you find a half dozen decent servers which are populated in your time zone.

I've levelled up all classes so my aim is to get bronze on each gun then get the few remaining pins.

I've been playing with shotguns lately...I'm gonna miss them :D

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.

      Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
