We will probably run some fun things to get the servers back to life

It seems many people are having problems with rubber-banding including me still. Gets quite annoying :'(

Since i turned off Hyper threading any server I join is running beautiful!!

The ramming into air vehicles isn't anything new, you could ram the UAV into a chopper on BF:BC2 and the chopper would drop.

That doesn't make sense, how does that help with graphics lag??? :confused:

Can we arrange 1 night where the server is password protected? OcUK only?

Hey,

I was thinking of getting another server for karkand, so maybe if you willing to wait a few weeks the opening night could be OCUK Only Night?

im currently talking with Another orangisation that might help me build on getting extra servers also.

PS. Who ever asked. My server is from Multiplay.

Question I hope someone can help me with

I am using the 360 controller, the on screen displays tell me what keyboard/mouse buttons to press which is obviously no good to me using the 360 controller.

Does anybody know how to get the game to show the xbox 360 button equivalents?

Cheers

Didn't to me either!! If its server side "lag", turning off Hyper Threading will get rid of the lot!

Try it and come back!

I took the OC off on my CPU and the game is playing smoother with higher frame rates. Work that one out.

I got a road kill by flying my plane full speed into someone who was parachuting down.
It almost made me spray Guinness all over my monitor

What CPU you using?

scamartist · 14 Nov 2011 at 12:25

Is it just me or are the sniper rifles in this massively underpowered.

Random spray at a chopper out of frustration with an MG only to see me HS the pilot and him fall out and kill 3 others while it crashed intoa building had me doing the same

but with tea

Also Got a really long range RPG kill, halfway over the map and it went through a window....It will never happen again...I was so proud!

Hahaha. I've tried that so many times but never managed it

And there was me thinking, hmm can't throttle down in the mav only for a quick google to show it is binded to crouch which I have unbinded in favour of toggle crouch. Dice you fail at key mapping.

Came across a recon yesterday using the co-op M39 EMR rifle, ridiculously OP.

mad_weegie · 14 Nov 2011 at 12:48

Finally finished the singleplayer on this.

Ending was a little underwhelming.

Wish i flippin well could.
I just cannot get past killing the officer in the bit with the russian dude by the swimming pool.
Nothing i press responds and he shoots me dead. EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Then you have to play out the whole scene again which from the autosave start takes nearly 2 mins.
Looks like i'll NEVER finish sp. But then, the whole SP game this time round has been very disappointing for me.

It's not, long range it takes 2 shots, short range it couldn't hit a barn door even with the laser dot.

Deific · 14 Nov 2011 at 12:55

Well he was killing everything long and short range in 1 shot, seemed pretty accurate too.
