Not bad at all. If you play like that every game it won't take you much to rank up. :laugh:

I'm trying to get platinum for my last assault gun.. the F2000, and my god that gun sucks. It has a really high fire rate but other than that it's damage is pitiful. It's easier to get kills with pistols than the F2000.

Oh and my new favorite thing to do is to kill people with the smoke grenade, it's awesome.

Haha, I remember when I first unlocked that gun. I was so excited, thinking to myself "OMG the gun from Splinter Cell!!". Then I tried to use it. I usually empty the entire clip before the enemy has lost even half of his health.

You actually cannot get a bronze star with the smoke launcher, just like the tracer or power wrench. Sucks because months after release you still cannot get the 'get all bronzes on weapons medal or the 'get all bronzes' medal, likely because it's counting the tracer as a needed weapon for bronze.

Only recons can get the marksman headshot bonus. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that class can get it with any weapon, not only a sniper rifle.

you can get it with other guns but it is very very hard. i have got it a couple of times with rifle and auto shotty but i got like +3 or +8...nothing high compared to sniper rifle.

Anyone ever witnessed such a nice score?

I bet he was cheating! And I'm not just saying that because he passed me and I'm jealous of his number of kills :whistle:

He's aimbotting most likely. The fact that he's only rank 10.. yeah.. It's possible he's legit but I really doubt it.

Has anyone seen this yet?

If it is true, which I doubt. I will NEVER buy a Battlefield game again!

I'm not even surprised, they are cutting so many corners.

I also read DICE are helping out with NFS Hot Pursuit now ... Christ they must be stretched so thin :blink:

I have no hope at this point that BF3 will be the game everyone is wanting it to be. Sad because they could make a lot of pc players happy if they do it right but they're being so half assed with all their current games..

Weren't you playing with me when I went 48/0? No aimbot all skill :p

Yeah, and I remember you going on some big knife killing sprees too. Though that's a totally different subject. :laugh:

Just thought I'd post this. If anyone here is using GTX 480, SLI 480, Tri-SLI 480 or Quad-SLI 480's on this game and you are having a stutter issue (framerate stays constant but every 10 seconds or so its like the game skips a frame) then once the game is open go to Task Manager and right click on the Bf2.exe process and select 'Set Affinity' and uncheck all but 3 of your processor threads. If you have a Core i7 you should have 8 threads listed, uncheck 5 of them. This will make the game run smooth again until NVIDIA and EA sort the issue out. Not everyone with the above setup is affected but some are.

ATi cards, GTX 200, 9xxx 8xxx and below series are unaffected.

Not quite what you said but I have a gtx 470 and have no stuttering issues. Latest drivers, too.

    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!

      I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By WaltC · Posted

      I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
