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.

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      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.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      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....

      How do you connect 5.1 Speakers to this thing?
    • A 13 billion year old secret about our Universe's origin was revealed

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
