Noooo

Right in the start of my weeks holiday. Arrrgggghhhhhhh

I wonder if the wife and kids will mind me staying at home. lol

 

[RavenXXX2]

yes they did, increased size of hitboxes when running

Nice fix Dice.

Nice fix Dice.

That's the one thing I hate about BC2... I love everything else about the game but the hitboxes make it so bad that I just can't play it.

I'll get slated for saying this but the hit boxes in COD are so much better. You do that same vid in COD and enemy goes down. (Probably into Last Stand )

 

[Tombo]

obviously a bad server

As much as i hate COD, thats the best thing about the game. Coming from BF2 and then playing COD4 i was like OMG! Hit boxes that work

The hitboxes in BC2 are a bit iffy sometimes but have you not thought of learning them? They are still there, just a little to the right or left sometimes.

Nice fix Dice.

Lol

Getting blatanly hit in neck and head and yet still running fine

In this regard CS Source hit reg is better. Much easier to get headshots.

The lighting in this game is top notch. WOW!

When theres an explosion on the opening bit and the bodies fly that nearly had me jizz.

The SP story sounds a bit hokey:

The non-linear story in Battlefield 3 is told by way of a frame narrative where U.S. Marines Staff Sgt. Henry "Black" Blackburn is being interrogated about recent world-shaking events. What the player actually plays are Black's recollections of the events where a new threat known as the PLR caused him to be involved in military joint operation all across the globe.

Black ops had pretty much the exact same setup for their SP campaign. Some fodder for the cod fanboys i suppose.

Over on the BF3 forums some Tards have actually connected the date of the next trailer as being the beta release date....Apparently some of them can't remember the Faultline series.

MoH has by far the best hitreg of any current DICE fps, I hope BF3 uses that system...

 

[bindip1]

Just got a nice new shiny MSI 6950. Any one who was in the alpha, how did the 6950 do. Hopefully its a nice boost from my old 4890 which didn't run the alpha to well.

6950, 6790, 570, 580 single cards will performe fine at 1080p at max settings just the video above. higher res than 1080p require Xfire or SLI.

Source: Dice.

obviously a bad server

And the point of EA/Dice's GSP program was for...?

Yep, it ran it for me no problem. No noticeable frame drop, even when it all kicks off.

MoH has by far the best hitreg of any current DICE fps, I hope BF3 uses that system...

Higher health + MoH HitReg = WIN.
