The SG553 is decent I guess, it has really short range though. I'd say it's on par with the g36c though.

Edit: Also, something that kind of steams my beans is that there is a news section in Battelog, yet it's not used to tell us there will be a patch this week or about the Back to Karkand stuff. If the point of battlelog isn't to have all the information integrated into one site for the players to look at then what's the point of even having it?

This is one of the things that's always bothered me with DICE. They make it hard to track down information because if you don't follow twitter or any of a half a dozen different EA sites you're not getting all the information that's being put out there.

Yes, that's quite annoying. Even just a link to the Battlefield blog would be nice.

BTW according to zh1nt0's twitter, change log will be released today.

Surprising that BF3 won in every category. Well, not surprising it won graphics, anyone who voted for MW3 in that category is either blind or a blind fanboy. But gameplay and single player? Surprising.

I am pleased...if a little surprised on SP, I figgured MW3 SP would edge it out as there is far more back story and character development, BF was obviously gonna take graphics and I kinda knew it would take MP as long as it wasn't just COD fanboys voting but sensible human beings.

This update has really annoyed me. It wiped out all my settings from the browser based server listing page. I'm not bothered about most of the settings themselves but I am annoyed that it cleared my favourite server listing. I had 3 servers in there that were really excellent and now they are gone and I don't even remember the Names or IP's and of course my History has also been erased so I can't even find them on that either.

Thanks a lot EA/DICE.

I wish they'd fix that damn Noshair Canals map where some nub can sit in the AA gun on the ship and snipe people on land with it. Damn annoying, and there is no way for us to get him back. So stupid.

Indeed it is.

Once got killed thrice by that idiot.

Had to use Sniper to get him :p

    • Xbox Insiders get Xbox 360 achievements and Gamertag character upgrades

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Xbox Insiders get Xbox 360 achievements and Gamertag character upgrades by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft is continuing its fast-paced update schedule for Xbox Insiders. Today, the company announced a new slate of features it is rolling out to Xbox Insiders in the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring, which includes an expansion to the gamertag system, Xbox 360 achievements, and more. The unique Gamertag that Xbox users can choose for their profile is getting more characters. Instead of the 12-character limit, Insiders will now be able to get a Gamertag that's 15 characters long. The 12-character limit will still apply to Gamertags that are not unique or contain any non-Latin characters. Meanwhile, Microsoft is adding Xbox 360 game support to its Game Hubs. Selecting an installed Xbox 360 game on a modern Xbox console will now show achievement progress, captures, and other information. Achievement pop-ups are back for these classics too, which should be good news for achievement hunters. The next change is for Xbox players who can't wait to jump into their games when an update is required. "If a game requires an update and is available to stream through your Game Pass membership, you can start playing immediately with cloud gaming while the update downloads in the background," explains Microsoft. The final change of this Insider update is once again to the game cards. Insiders will find that all games, both released and upcoming, will now have a simple button to add to their profile's wishlist, making the process much easier from a single place. This Xbox update is rolling out today to Insiders in the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring. As usual, Microsoft aims to bring it to more Insiders over time before they reach all Xbox owners. Head here to find out how to join the Xbox Insider Program to get a chance to test these features and upcoming ones on both consoles and PC.
