Whoops it's 5:30am, that session was a bit epic got my 25hr award :-$

ggs Evil and Foresttaft, i had to stay until i could get the other team to win :) Some awesome rushes on the snipers hill - run up (timers ticking) throw C4, parachute down and BOOOM on the way die and get revived by Evil and do it again but still the snipers kept camping :D Should coordinate with 2 or 3 medics, could totally rush that hill and stay there ;)

For about 5 defend games on the trot there were a good 8 of us (mix of assault and medics) just sat right at the bottom of the first hill nailing everything. There were groups of Engineers either side taking out the armour and with unlimited ammo and res nothing got past us. It was a bit boring to be honest! Fantastic display of teamwork owning though.
 
i was able to take out the apache yesterday with the light tank, the 2 guys who were using the apache had used it in the previous game and was just killing everyone, they didnt take it well me killing them so they upped and left the game, which is somewhat babyish, though saying that i was playing on a near empty server was only me defening and 2 guys on the other team, i was doing well running in and defusing and dying after but wasnt able to hold the 1st obj, so tried holding the 2nd only for both of them to use the armour, i gave up and left.
 
A post about gpu usage:


No, the retail version will not utilize 100% GPU. It would require too large structural changes to the game to reach that point.

When we try to improve performance, we ask "given that we have X engineering hours available, how do we improve the framerate for most people as much as possible?" We only look at CPU/GPU utilization if we predict that improving the utilization will have a marked effect on the framerate.

Seems odd that increasing the gpu usage might not have much effect on framerate, especially since many people are reporting that gpuz is showing the game making very little use of the gpu, 30% and lower in lots of cases.

To anyone else does the above read like "yeah the gpu's in the consoles are crap so we're leveraging their cpu's as much as possible, but we cant be arsed changing the engine for pc".

Attacking the first checkpoint, the other team were all defending down at B. I managed to sneak round and up onto the tower and grab the larger machine gun. Shot 10 of them in the back before I got shot :)
 
This is a marmite game for me atm.

It is so heavily squad orientated that if you end up on a nub team, it infuriates me to the point of ragequitting.

If on the other hand I am on a good team, the game owns everything that came before it!
 
Damn console demo has more unlocks than we do, just seen a vid of the t90 tank firing its coaxial machinegun. Yet on pc all this is restricted for god only knows what reason. :mad:



Whole point of a beta is to test things, yet in the case of the ps3 beta and now the 360 and ps3 demo they have more unlock access than the pc beta.....hows that even begin to make sense?

A mate of mine came round to my gaf the other day and saw a weapon I was using that was alien to him. Maybe we just have different unlocks? Or maybe he wasn't as pro as he thought.

The ps3 beta they literally could unlock anything they wanted, i seen people with the m16 in some vids which is one of the very last unlocks. Yet for pc it seems they don't want us unlocking anything beyond rank 11. :confused:

I think the dmeo is restricted in rank for consoles, but it seems that they do have different unlocks.

I agree, not impossible to shoot down but very very very very very hard to shoot down, and i think there is a exploit being used where they can repair it in flight, so what little damage you do, gets undone very quickly :mad:

When I am in the apache, and I get damaged i tend to go land it at where the attackers first parachute in to the map and repair there. Then I am good to go. :)
