The upcoming patch is currently being certified by Microsoft and Sony. As always, the PC patch is ready but DICE will release it once the certification process is complete for the X360 and PS3.

That is just ****ing stupid. Why should PC users be punished for not having a certification process? What good will this give to DICE/EA? They could just release the PC patch and if something goes wrong, fix that. After certification, they release console patches and focus on their day one issues. Now they'll have to work with all 3 platforms and their day one issues (and there will be issues) at the same time.

If they did that then they'd have to listen to console players complain about how the pc players got the patch first. "No fair!".

Mother of :omg:
I know right. Amazing head acquisition.
When do you get that weapon?
It's one of the first recon weapons you unlock I think.
WTF... if I was up against him I'd be completely convinced he had some kind of aimbot. I'm struggling to accept anyone could be THAT accurate, that quickly tbh.
Well then more fool you. The guy is an ex-CS:S competitive player. Snapping to heads isn't that uncommon in high level play.

It's basically a rework of the the entire game. Rebalancing touches just about every gun, I think. If only indirectly through tweaks to attachments.

Wow, why's that? Is it too easy for some?

Well, some things are obviously needed like the usas being nerfed into the ground and mav elevators, but for the rest? Only dice knows.

M40A5 is a few sniper rifles in, getting the sight takes a while.

He was using the default iron sight, which you can use as soon as you get the gun.

To be fair, his accuracy with the M40 isn't that high. ;)

Awesome video, I guess it shows that you can play recon aggressively without OHK bodyshots. Takes skill though...

What happens when an Ex-CS:S Pro plays BF3...

Without doubt, he is an accurate shot. However, I'd like to see how he fairs on hardcore without the aid of bright red letters over heads... He would keep his close encounter skill but his range would be neutralized.

This is a good read:

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      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.
    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By WrongHead™ · Posted

      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.
