Honestly, I kind of feel the same way. My favorite maps are Metro, Seine, and Bazaar. I just don't do well in big maps, even playing with friends. Most of the time I take a jet because that is the only fun I have in them. I don't care to much for tanks, and I usually use the trucks for C4 bait and drive them into tanks.

I generally stick to 24/7 metro maps, with high tickets, and no explosives or launchers. Every now and again I will go to a large map to pilot a helicopter for people (since I can't shoot with them) or play around in a jet, or to snipe.

I'm just hoping the Close Quarters maps will be allowed to up the player count in them, for absolute mayhem. :p

Snap!

Or atleast at the moment, I did play the first 20lvls or so pretty much just in Caspian Border andd Op Firestorm. I go through phases, but generally its about a 5:1 Metro:Other ratio.

Just a thought.

I've wondered why no members of NeoWin haven't made a server yet. It has probably been brought up before. But with a topic with 6,000+ replies and 280,000+ views...

I've thought about doing it, but the little research I did, $90+ a month is a bit steep for a 64 man server. I'm sure we could do donations. I just don't prefer PayPal, or I would do it.

I've been wanting to open a 64man, 24/7 Metro no explosives/launchers server, considering the 3-4 that exist are always full and over-queue.

Is there an interest in this? I've yet to come across anyone sporting the [NEO] clan tag as well. I feel alone out here. :(

Boz had/has some servers but I don't know if they are still up. Also the trouble is people are from all over the place, not just the US.

Oh, right. I completely forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me, now I can find more no explosive servers. ^_^

My ping is fairly low, even across long distances. When I played on 360, I had played on a bunch of UK servers and did fine. Not sure if it translates that well in PC, but as long as my latency is 200 or below it wouldn't bother me.

Just a thought.

Can donate a 10man vent server if you like. That or we could form our own wee clan.

I have a 25man (or maybe 20 man, can't remember) vent server. I used it for SWToR, but most of my guild has quit. I still pay for it as they use it time to time, real life friends and whatnot. Do you guys need one, it isn't being used often and I have no problem continuing the payments for it?

good idea to start a neowin server for PC players. I'm on 360 personally.

I still think this is the best online shooter ever made and love it, I will stop once at level 45. I'm at 41 now, and disappointed with DICE. The game has had almost no visible support from them since December, and many of the problems persist. Frag rounds and MAVs are still a pain. When are the fixes coming? When are we getting new maps?

Yay hit 35 myself and am well chuffed. But yeh totally agree about Dice, the C4 bug alone is enuff to call the game broken.

Hey Coli you mean the C4s that can't be spotted? Otherwise not sure, other than C4 being a cheap trick I would not use myself. Wouldn't call the game broken at all, but in rather pressing need of improvement for sure. Right now it looks like DICE basically forgot about it.


New weapons shown in the video: Spas-12, MTAR-21 (no idea what that is), ACW-R, LSAT (???), L86a1, and AUG. All in all, apart from the new guns the maps look "meh". Spam explosives to win. Which I guess is no different than how it is currently.

Edit: MTAR-21 is a sub machine gun similar in looks to the A-91 already in game.

According to battlelog PS3 players will be able to download a new version of the Back to Karkand dlc tomorrow that will fix the weapon bugs. I don't know if there are any ps3 players here though so just putting it out there.

Intrinsica, I believe, is a PS3 player

You're right, I am. That said, Battlefield is with me in my new apartment and I haven't sorted out my Internet yet...man, I haven't played BF3 in about a month now. I should really make a move on sorting out the Internet situation...

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
