Yep tonight or one night this week sounds good. Not sure of the best server to play on though, dont mind if its softcore or hardcore. I just want to try out the SA80. I did have a few games the other day but my teams weren't winning any games so got bored and left.
EDIT
Just checked my stats it appears we did win one game. So four more needed for the unlock.
L85A2*
Is that the name? Huh not sure where i got SA80 from.
Anyway its the rifle the british army use right? Thats why i want to try it.
SA80 was the original. The L85 was the Uk forces version introduced in 1987 and the L85A2 is the current modified type in service today.
It's not a bad rifle but there is a lot better available for a lot cheaper.(In real life not the game)

I get that now and again too, I'd always figured it was my onboard sound card trying to do too much at once.

Incorrect. The SA80 was not "the original." It is, and has always been, the family of firearms. It stands for "Small Arms for the [19]80s".
It is. SA80 is the name of the family of firearms the L85A2 belongs to.
The other variants are the L86 Light Support Weapon (aka LSW, aka AWESOME!), the L22 Carbine and the impossibly pants L98 Cadet Rifle.
The cadet rifle is just a single shot L85. Cadets are not allowed to fire semi automatic rifles. It's still the same ammo, performance etc just has to be manually loaded.
Ok my wording is wrong. It was designed as the SA80 and entered service into the uk forces as the L85A1...
I've fired well over 5,000 rounds with the L98, and well over 1,000 with the L85. The L98 throats. The bolted on loading arm is why it sucks.
EDIT: Which is why they've replaced it with the L98A2 which is semi-automatic only.

Incorrect again. It was never designated "SA80" - it has always been L85, which is a part of the SA80 family.

It was by the media which in the main is where all the confusion comes from.
No idea how many rounds I have fired with the L85 A1 & A2 must be around 25-30k ish if not more at a guess
Anyone else think the "enhanced destruction" in b2k is a bit 0_o? Really all im seeing is empty concrete buildings inexplicably exploding when you shell them, seems all the buildings on those maps must have little piles of tnt in the corner for added pizazz when they get slapped with any kind of munition.
Also noticed that in some of the maps there seems to be quite a few buildings that can't take any form of damage whatsoever, even down to scorches from tank shells. Enhanced destruction you say?

Enhanced as in 100% scripted with naff physics effects just as the regular BF3 maps, honestly destruction in BF3 is the biggest gimmick going, it looks naff and TBH the game would be better without it.
Personally i found it much better in BC2, the buildings collapsed with some weight to them, in BF3 it looks like a deck of cards falling over and most of the time its hard to tell when you're inside if theyre gonna fall or not, at least in BC2 you got some warning with the dust falling and groaning sound of the structure.
