    Yes, I forgot that the wiring of your electrics will have a bearing on how good the connection is between homeplugs.

    I got my simplycdkeys premium keys before release. Been OK for me too.

    They are fast, but there is a drop in speed. I can get 21ms to a server over a cable plugged directly in, and that went up to 45ms to 60ms with just the addition of wall plugs. I guess different makes of wall plug give you different results. Still playable, but you lose an edge. Better than...

    failing hard drive

    I used to repair computers, and whatever I went to fix, I always asked them about backing up their data. I didn't sell drives, so it was a service of free advice. They call me when things go wrong, and it's the one thing I can't help them with is the drive is completely dead. I've seen enough...

    Trusted CD Key Sites.

    Yes, I got my keys for BF4 from simplycdkeys also, which included premium. I thought they delivered in good time to preload the content before release.

    Iphone 5 to 5s, worth it?!

    I agree. I think that the fingerprint reader is cool, and the camera is better, but if you have a 5, not really worth upgrading for just this alone.

    Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

    I was part of OcUK platoon #2, but I never found a way to join the servers. Maybe BF4 will have better integration. http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/platoon/2832655391300710768/ I don't play more than a couple of games a night, so I doubt a clan would have me.

    Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

    objective play I've been playing BF2 and BF3 for a long time, and now I'll be playing BF4 for a long time. I really like playing for the objectives, and getting on a squad that likes to work together. Is there a way of friending people with a like mind attitude so that I can play with them? I'm...

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    I'm interested to know what people think about what happens when you die. I mean, you can't lose everything. I think the original Elite had you return to your last base station with nothing gained, and a few missiles lost with a bit of damage to repair. It was costly, but not crippling. Why...

    I think the guys are Frontier have a sense of humour. Don't forget, the original game had pirates, and narcotics trade. Just checked my commander name, and it is approved. I'm surprised, because it was quite late in the sponsorship, and a common name. I shall this day forth be known as...

    All top players. But that is a unitednoobs clan server.

    Gmail are pretty good about this. I would not have checked at all if it were not for others posting. Maybe Frontier may have not done the mailout in the most reliable way.

    You can see 'noob' in the title usually. Some servers have messages like 'no pro pilots' or something like that. It is best to favourite a server when you find one. Look in the list to see if the server has more lower level players.

    You need to find some servers for noobs. I also find it annoying when you have 3 or 4 professional pilots on the other side. Especially if your team is not working together.

    Oh no.. I meant at their forums. I found my 'register' email in my spam after reading a few posts here. I now have my name and NCP name waiting for approval, like everyone else. :)

    They said they would. I guess you will be able to do that in the web app to manage pledge rewards.

    I thought the forum was quite slow to register. I would imagine a lot of people are trying to get on there at the same time. I got the username I wanted though. :) Just waiting for the web app to open now.

    Using the mouse wheel to change weapon is slow and causes finger fatigue when you get older. Yes, I've been gaming for 20 years, and you don't want to use the mouse wheel... take my word for it. Not to worry.. that key is not going to cause me any more problems. It is sitting near my mouse...
