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

On the road - can't check now: BF3 on console(s): can my brother and I both play multiplayer together @ the same time on the Xbox 360? Basically does BF3 have split screen?

No. Your gonna nee d a second console and copy of the game.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
