I think it's fair the say the negative folk are always the most vocal, grinding away at their axes. Lots of people think it's an amazing game still, and it's definitely my most played game :)
 
Hate this game. You break line of sight with the guy shooting at you for. You've been behind a wall/cover for a good 0.5 -1 sec. But bullets are still hitting, and kill me. It's almost like the bullets move round/through corners. Lag?
 
It might seem like 0.5-1 sec... but it isn't

and yes, it's a form of lag compensation - can be rather frustrating - but it's as if to say "you would have died anyway"
 
Sometimes i get annoyed.

Im in really thick smoke and someone shoots me, now i get concerned, do they have really cheppy low gfx settings that mean they can see me irrespective of smoke? Are they hacking to see through smoke?

Sometimes its luck, i mean on metro with smoke i will just blast a chokepoint area and wait for my reticle to ping but on bigger maps/larger areas where theres no way they can have possibly gotten that lucky, and i cannot in return see my opponent, how does this happen?

Same in ultra dark rooms too, im pretty sure i cant see my opponent but he sees me very clearly, again, FXAA hack? cheat or ultra low gfx settings that help to remove gradient and contrast?

You've been spotted? (That's what Q does...) or a motion sensor has picked you up... lol

I play as recon a lot and one of my tasks is to spot as much as i can, this includes spamming Q in smoke and the dark. I also lay motion sensors down in convenient places all the time to help the team.

Once someone has been 'spotted' it's easy to hit them going on their target.
 
Crinkle is your man for any cheat related questions.

As for seeing through smoke, a players name tag/marker is still shown when your gun is pointing in their general direction, this even through smoke, basicly smoke is useless in this situation.

Increased gamma will always give you a massive advantage in dark areas of a map.

i play Hardcore so does my name still appear in smoke.

Usually its the other person in smoke and im about 100 metres away say for example metro im coming from A to B and the opponent is coming up escalator to B under smoke. Im sat much further back (for example) in a wider open space where metro opens up a bit and there are 3 entrances when coming from A...


they can pick me off 100 metres away despite me not being able to see them at all and i could be any one of nearly infinite locations in that part of the map. Yet i get snipered..and with my sniper scope i cannot see into the smoke, so in my mind how can they see me at all from within the smoke?!
 
After playing mostly on 32 player conquest & rush and 16 player close quarter servers, I decided to give 64 player conquest a go.
However, I'm finding it really hard to enjoy, there never seems to be any good teamwork, (unless you have a pubstomping/vehicle whoring clan on your side) and there also seems to be an abundance of really poor snipers. I don't think I have had an enjoyable game yet, most seem to end in 1 side completely dominating the map.

Well I stank last night. I don;t think I have ever had 5 games in a row with such massive K/D ratios.......:(

My excuse is that I am trying to get my assignments but still gutted.
 
Hi Diablu, annoying isnt it. i can take it when im stuck in a choke point and someone only has a small area to aim at and almost guaranteed to hit me. When im in a large open area and i cannot see my opponent due to smoke and he can see me and somehow snipe me through the smoke. then i take exception.
