morning all just out of interest which mouse are you guys using and why, I'm using a Logitech

Epic Gear Meduza - Needed a replacement for my G5 and did not like the G9. I also tried the Steelseries Sensei and G500 but the Meduza was like my old G5 with really nice improvements making long gaming sessions comfortable.

Mouse choice I feel is a very personal decision where it's often best to do your research then go through a process of trial and error to find what's right for you.

you know what could be a real game changer in bf3.

If you only scored a kill if the player wasn't revived.

It would totally cut out the spamfest on the likes of metro. Such battles would still occur in some way, but currently some players will play in such a way that all they are doing is farming useless kills that provide nothing for the team. They appear to have good stats and high scores but the reality is if they aren't taking a ticket off the opposition then their kill isn't worth much.

Just a simple change in how kills are counted would encourage a style of play based around clearing an area of players completely. This in turn would require more organised squad play, so you could hit a whole group of players at once and stop them reviving each other.

and then a player with a high kill count would truly have contributed to the game.

I do like the idea snail. You could then follow this on with stats like tickets per minute. i.e. Your tickets from kills + the tickets consumed by a successful cap. Make people care about the actual objective, rather than sat back farming kills. Frustrates the hell out of me how people don't push up.
 
EA are very lax in the way they use language to describe their products. this causes lots of confusion about what you are buying.
maybe it's deliberate, i dont know, but i see a lot of people talking about buying premium, thinking it means the same as buying bf3 premium, which it is not.

i still don't know if i should be buying the digital deluxe version or not.

yeah and in the past ive heard people say that if you have a high kdr then you are contributing to the team, buy using up enemy tickets. i didn't twig at the time that this might be nonsense.
now i feel hard done by with my mediocre kdr, and i don't even know if my real kdr is actually good or not cos it's not recorded anywhere
 
Its an error. I'd love to see the email when they confirm they are selling BF4 premium membership and BF4 for £35

firstly there is still room for interpretation in that email. secondly i think the person who wrote that is ignorant or misinformed about the product.

either way you will have to argue with them down the line to get the other expansions
 
Hmm tempted to just order that tbh and if they don't honour it then I will want a full refund!

Also noticed that green man gaming have a similar thing going on, "Pre-purchase to receive a Battlefield 4™ Premium Expansion Pack". although it is the DVD version but for £30 and if true, the premium expansion, that is pretty good!

Green Man Gaming have titled theirs correctly, you receive 1 premium expansion pack.

The way zavvi have listed it suggests you get all premium expansions.

that's what i mean about the vague language EA use. there are lots of people who don't pick up on the subtlety of saying 'a premium expansion pack'

'pack' suggests there are several things packed together and they throw the word 'premium' around all over the place, so it loses it's meaning.

Yeah I agree the wording is poor, what do you expect from EA though, their marketing is nearly as good as Apple lol.
 
Reminds me of this
