His drag shotting skill is insane.

... I'll be the first to admit that I'm not particularly good at Battlefield, but how is he hitting half these people?! He isn't even aiming at them, he's aiming (in some shots) about a meter behind, and then he flicks his wrist and it magically hits?

Muscle memory. With enough experience you can judge by instinct when to shoot when doing drag shots.

Very nice video btw. According to his stats it isn't even a collection of some cherry picked clips to make one look good, guy's genuinely skilled.

Once you become so use to the physics in a game, things like this become a joke... Yes, he really is just flipping his wrist and clicking, things like this were commonplace back during the Quake 2/3 days... I just didn't think i'd see it someday in a Battlefield game lol.

Reminds me of sweeping with the BR in Halo 2 after firing a plasma shot. Only rage could ensue. This is the same but on a different level.

But seriously... Screw that guy, he makes me not want to play at all lolol...

He's taking advantage of the game's physic engine flaws. You can't blame him for doing it, and it is still very impressive and difficult, but seriously... Screw that guy.

Also... His jump at 2:10... I would have committed suicide EVERY time. SCREW THAT GUY! LOL!

I did enjoy the music...

Did anyone else unlock the Melee Medal & Dog tag? Because I found out that the best way to do so is to get to Caspian, be on the RU side, get into a jet, fly to Antenna, parachute out, make sure you are well away from the Antenna itself, and then dog-tags galore from Recons camping @ the rocks... I have the Melee Medal and that is how I got most of my Dog-Tag Kills.

Also, Metro Meat grinders are the best servers for ranking up, go engineer and just spam rockets in the general direction of enemy, and either get kills and/or assists

Yeah I have to say, I have personally never even heard of this style of shooting never-mind seen it in action. It is beyond bizarre. Sure it is impressive, but I just do not get why he has to do the whole drag thing. I guess he is proving just how good he is? Seems like an unnecessary addition to me. :laugh:

Using explosives is not the best way to get points on metro meat grinder servers. FYI. Get an assault rifle of your choice and mow people down. Shotguns work good too. You'll easily get more kills than you ever will with explosives (m320 or rpg). And then when you drop a med kit and snagging revives when you can you'll easily be out scoring the people who are camping with their m320.

If you shoot the right pixels you get way more points with m320. And if the medics do their job right you can walk away with 124 - 2 like i did.

Do some revives too for some extra points. Had 70.000+ in that round. Not one rifle bullet wasted.

    • Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things by Taras Buria ProtoArc is known for making all sorts of office products with a big focus on ergonomics and comfort. Its latest product, the EM25, promises a comfortable-to-use, affordable, and customizable mouse. We took one for a spin; here are our impressions. The ProtoArc EM25 is a $49.99 mouse, but right now, during Prime Day 2026, you can get it for just $37.99. Right off the bat, you can see that the EM25 is inspired by Logitech's MX Master lineup and the legendary MX Master 3/3S. Its shape and proportions are very similar, so for a person with large hands (right-handed person, mind you), the EM25 is very comfortable to use. The mouse fills the palm, and the thumb rests on a small extension, giving your wrist a small tilt to reduce strain. The mouse is made of black plastic without any coating, eliminating long-term wear concerns. However, I can see the main buttons and other areas you touch the most getting polished over time. Despite its size and bulk, the mouse is not too heavy. It weighs about 100 grams, which is significantly less than the MX Master 3S and its successor. It is no lightweight gaming mouse by any means, but it is not excessively heavy like the MX Master 4. The EM25 has a built-in storage for its USB dongle. It is a cleverly made magnetic flap that you open by simply pressing on it. Next to the flap, you will find the on/off switch, the 1,000 Hz sensor, and a DPI button (up to 8,000 DPI). I find the DPI button location a bit odd, and I would prefer it somewhere below the main scroll wheel. Still, given that I never change DPI on my mice, I will let it pass. What is more important is that, unlike MX Master 3/3S/4, the device switch button is located below the left-click button, which allows you to switch devices without lifting and flipping the mouse. For a multi-device setup, this is a perfect solution: the button does not require too much effort to use, it does not get in your way, but it is also easily reachable with your thumb. The main scroll wheel has two modes: ratcheted and free-flow. You can only change between them with a bright orange button (I like this little touch of color), which is sprung and requires some effort to press. The wheel is dead-silent in free-flow mode, but ratched is quite loud and stiff, perhaps even too much to my liking. I can hardly call it deal-breaking, but it will certainly take some time to get used to. The side scroll wheel, it is notched, silent, and pleasant to use. Next to it, you can find a piece of glossed plastic with connection indicators: Dongle, Bluetooth 1, Bluetooth 2, and the low battery indicator. By the way, the built-in battery is rechargeable via a USB Type-C cable, which is included. It is sleeved and has an orange velcro strap to keep it tidy. After using the EM25 for a few weeks, I can say that its main buttons are my absolute favorite. They have very pronounced clicks, which feel great with just the right amount of force required to register a press. I would say they feel like something in between regular mouse clicks and silent ones. You can hear and feel the springy switch, but it is not sharp or loud to the point of annoying you. As for back/forward and device switch buttons, they are very clicky and quite noisy. Unfortunately, there are no extra buttons that you can map to specific things like in the MX Master lineup. Besides great primary clicks, another thing I like about the EM25 is its 1,000 Hz sensor. In the world, where Logitech still uses 125 Hz sensors in $100+ mice, seeing a much faster sensor in a mouse that costs three times less is very refreshing. Also, all the settings and customization you make are stored on-device, and you do not need to install any software. Just open the web-based app and change all that you need. Speaking of customization, you can remap what buttons do, adjust the DPI, and the sensor speed. Sadly, gestures are not supported, but you can still map pretty much anything to each button, including shortcuts, media buttons, and more. I also recommend using software like XMouseControl, as it will let you remap the side scroll wheel. At the end of the day, the ProtoArc EM25 is a great mouse. Clearly inspired by the MX Master lineup, it takes the best of it and complements it with a much more wallet-friendly price tag, significantly better sensor, on-device memory, a built-in storage for the dongle, and more (it fixes everything that I complained about the MX Master 4 recently). And for only $37.99 during Prime Day, the EM25 is an easy recommendation. Buy ProtoArc EM25 mouse - $37.99 | 24% off with Prime As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

    • Newegg offers insane combo deal on Amazon Prime Day 2026 that beats Steam Machine

      By excalpius · Posted

      Indeed. But note that this has Wifi7, HDMI 2.1, BlueTooth 5.4, and 5G Ethernet, so even in the additional features list this bundle blows the Steam Machine away. And, with the money saved, one could improve this dramatically.
