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...

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
