Another tidbit from Gamescom.

Apparently players can spawn directly into vehicles if a teammate is driving it. That was another of my bugbears in all previous battlefield games, some tosser spawning and then taking a multiple seat vehicle all on their own leaving rest of the team having to go on foot.

You could do this before if someone in your squad was in a vehicle.

Always going to get the plane and helicopter queues.

- bf2 handling for helicopters

Where did you hear that? Alan Kertz via Twitter said air vehicles will have the same handling as 2142, which had auto stabilization so couldn't throw it about like BF2.

Don't ask me for a source, it was on his Twitter about 2 - 3 months ago.

From a guy that follows every stream from gamescom.

Need to stop watching these trailers until it's closer to release as it just gets me pumped for the game, only to realize it's still months away. Should probably try and get the hang of flying jets one of these days, but given my past history of flying in Battlefield games I may just save that for when I pick up Ace Combat. Hoping the game will be looking this good on my system as the graphics are truly amazing.

It would suck if you spawn into a vehicle with less than 5% HP... right before an RPG hits it.

Oh lol.

Yeah i agree but the pros far outweigh the cons, i used to get extremely frustrated spawning at base only for some idiot to jump into the only vehicle there and and drive off leaving teammates for dust.

Been banned a few times for sending a rocket up their arse for the trouble.

Pretty sure BC2 was that way... it sucks. "Oh goody gum drops I can look at the respawn screen even longer!"

I haven't been following this thread as much as I should, is there a way to deny revives from medics? That was one of the most irritating things about BC2 for me. So many unneeded extra deaths from idiot rambo medics.

It's definitely frustrating, especially when you spawn at the original spawn location. It better be an option though. Sometimes, I want to spawn on the ground (e.g. playing as recon). I can't snipe people when I'm in the front seat of a Humvee.

Yes, that feature was announced a long time ago.

I just saw some new game play footage, and it was on PS3...again. Is anyone worried that they have yet to show a 360 version? I have my limited edition pre-ordered for the 360 and I have yet to find out how it looks compared to the PS3. They say that the PS3, and 360 are to be the same, but I am starting to doubt it. I don't have a ps3 but my friend does and I watched Dead Space the other night and I cant imagine that looking the same. Just as an example.

...but you haven't seen actual 360 footage. What makes you think it will look worse? Didn't BC2 look pretty much identical for both 360 and PS3?

Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
