this game is near damn impossible everyone i shoot doesnt die i get killed in 1 hit i end up with 100 assist really p*ssin me off. Be good if their were servers for lvl 1 only. maybe dice need to bring in a better filter system because this game is impossible to play from early rank just makes you not want to play.

Do what I did, play on some Hardcore servers until you level up a bit then come back to the normal servers.

HC means aiming is out of the window and it's easy to get kills and rank up.
 
Just don't look at your KDR while your there :D

Didn't really have a problem with that, in fact I'm worse on the normal servers because I get less kills.

Also saw PB kicking left right and centre last night for aimbots and such, if you're still not running PB you need to keep a very close eye....

You're right that we were shocking and playing the wrong classes but isn't the reason that we had such poor team composition that it was a team full of low rankers who don't yet know what they should be doing.

I can die with a smile if I'm beat fairly but far too often I shoot first, on target, only for the bad guy to turn around and drop me instantly.

Wont be giving up on the game though, still like it but its a grind at the moment.

- Incidently we improvered once we had afew OCuk's on, the previous rounds were really bad!

Don't think I helped much last night, I was having a shocker :(
 
I mainly play hardcore, but find Normal easier for the little things.

The spotting is almost like hacking when your not used to it! :D I've got quick reflexes in the sense that I can soak up a couple of bullets and still get the kill. In hardcore you don't have chance to react.
 
Lol we are on our way now mate. Your server hardcore aswel mate?

It does my head but our server seems to reset at like 1.30am , if that didn’t happen then I’m sure it would stay full all nite long.

Our death match server is really busy in fairness, it takes 1 – 2 people to kick that off!

Must say tho I played on our SQDM server for 3 hours last nite, was the most fun I’ve ever had on FPS games… Loves it ;)


No mate we are normal mode, I need to speak to you though if your about, you on steam atm ?
 
Exactly the experience I had last night on the OcUK server. I must have been on your team! We were getting absolutely pummeled with no team-play whatsoever, and I was getting slaughtered in exactly the fashion described above by people I'd got the first shot in on.

I found I played far better as soon as I moved to another server. Possibly just luck, and down to having fairer teams, or maybe I was getting less lag or something, no idea.

If you have a couple of a games in a row where you're getting hammered feel free to give a shout to one of the admins.

uv, myself, link to insanity, windle, aedus all have admin rights.

That said, I haven't spoken to Aedus yet about the passwords/etc. Sorry Aedus - will do it asap :)

Its terrible. You can tell its designed for consoles in mind. I lookforward and hammer the Q key and it spots 3 people for me that im not even pointing at!

One can live in hope that BF3 will not be for consoles and be more like BF2. ie good

Still loving bad company 2 but certain aspects of the game ruin it for me (like the menu change things like spot, bail out etc)

The problem is what can you do?

No way to force a team switch, can't exactly kick people for being on the winning team. Kicking switchers is probably the only thing that can be done to prevent it from getting worse.

This is what we are facing aswell. Usually relies on us splitting ourselves up with others on Vent which isn't anywhere near as much fun.
 
No mate we are normal mode, I need to speak to you though if your about, you on steam atm ?

lmao Gornal. gornal i need to speak to you aswel mate, did you say you wanted to run the war section of TFU?

No i'm in work atm, i'l be in my house in about an hour, add me on steam and i'l give you a shout: thegoon84.

Yeah. It's a difficult one indeed.

I'd probably be happy to take a look at it though - it's possible that there may have been clan stacking or something obvious. At the very least, a server message asking a few people to swap teams might help. Probably not, but worth a try :)

fo' shizzle

Chuck me a message on the forums mate, I'm on tfus forum chat thingy now.

Pain isn't it. Its good to know were not the only admins catching flak for things beyond our control though :D

I already have you, I'm Murray the Cat and {SAS}Stalker from over on the EA site :P

Water of a ducks back as far as flak is concerned tbh, especially at the moment, we are almost at the point now where we cba to even warn people, if they cant read the server notes or use common sense with regards balance then its not really our issue.

Every {SAS} member will without fail be the first to switch when the numbers get out of whack or the game is unbalanced and tbh it makes it a bit of a pita not being able to play together but the upshot is most rounds are close to within a few tics.

End of the day the admin support and back end stuff is in such a mess, to feel bad about anything you do would be madness, if half the whiners spent just 10 mins trying to admin a 32/32 server they would be making far more noise about that, than what just happened to them.

Very well said!
 
I got the 5th assault unlock (I think its like the M16?) on sunday, along with the red dot laser sight its lethal! I snuck into the enemy base and three guys were all sprinting along ..... took em all out with headshots twas awesome!

Im working away for two weeks straight so I dont get to play for ages :( Need to fugure out how to get on the OcUK server (is this unofficially the TFU server)

I lurve this game!
 
What rewards does the Q key bring? Did it last night and spotted a number of people, but that was it?

I'm really behind on the rankings and pickups, but to be honest my main problem is my framerate which hovers at 30 when nothing happens then sits around 20-25 in general bumming around. Then my screen turns into a Jpeg once fighting commences :D:D:D
