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:

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
