Shoguns are horribly broke IMO. I can't use them AT ALL. The only one that is half decent for me is the SPAS, even then I only have 15 kills on it :rofl:

Oh definitely - don't know how many times a point blank shot has missed :lol:

but nothing is more fun that having someone on a quad race towards you only for you to shoot his face off with a Neo2000 :smug:

Xbox 360 leads the BC2 stat wars (between PS3 & Xbox 360)

Players need to be spotting more in Battlefield: Bad Company 2. So show stats DICE has gathered from the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the shooter.

On both consoles, spotting is dead last on the list of activities (detailed below) otherwise dominated by resupplies, repairs and revives. Leading them all however, naturally, are kills; 1,398,249,600 for the PS3 version, 1,937,940,576 for the Xbox 360.

NOT enough spotters my friends :(

Do not have a problem with the medics, but carl gustov.... I am tired of getting randomly blown up by those.

Oh how much I can relate with you. It's annoying! I try to get someone from behind, he jumps and turns by 180?.... well next thing is I have a CG in my face :shiftyninja:

Indeed. I actually thought that DICE did a good job of rewarding people for spotting (with the assist points), but apparently it wasn't enough to encourage consideration for one's fellow teammates. I guess public servers will be public servers...

Although it's funny to note that the PS3 players spot more frequently than 360 players. One spot every 0.55 hours for the 360 and one spot every 0.61 hours for the PS3. Completely useless trivia, I know :).

Can say that again. I was on a noob server last night, just playing my normal rambo medic. And I was one of two people (out of a team of twelve) that would spot. It was pretty hilarious to see myself light up a group of baddies, and every noob run towards them guns blazing. Muppets :rofl:

Is it the same button on the PS3?

IMO, spotting can make or break your game. It could be what gets you to win more often than not. At least that is my experience.

Not too sure about the spotting buttons on the consoles. I've been playing on the PC exclusively. Speaking of which, I'd be curious to see the stats for the PC. People always assume that PC gamers are more civil and more mindful toward their peers. I wonder if it's really true :).

And I did notice that my win/loss ratio improved once I started spotting and going for assists more often. My record is still bad, but now it's not as bad.

Found my new ###### gun. The Saiga. Im loving it, the original plan was to just get bronze, and go back to my trusty AN-94. But I was racking up the kills, and so easily too. Before I knew it I had my 1 gold star on it, in one session! And to give you some idea how much I love this gun. I just got my 500 kills with shotgun award, bear in mind that I only started to use shotguns yesterday, and also that I dont have 500 kills with sniper rifles award yet (which also tells you I hate that class with a passion)!

I sense good times ahead! Now where's that patch?!

Me, I'm going for all gold stars :p Difficult with ****ty weapons! :s
Good luck with the F2000. It's hard, very hard, nothing more than a sharp stick.

The saiga is a good shot gun, I choose to be a recon using motion mines and I just rush or flank people with the saiga. Run and gun combo :D

And I lob C4's at enemies I see on the map, especially at choke points. I got my platinum C4 so fast before I knew it and I wasn't using it that much on vehicles either.

Good luck with the F2000. It's hard, very hard, nothing more than a sharp stick.

But it's a bloody fun gun, kinda like MG3. Sure, it's quite awful but that just makes kills oh so much more rewarding. :D

Personally I don't think I'll torture myself to get gold with it though.

edit

you using saiga with slugs or not?

    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
