If you can't understand why a unique category is needed when you've maybe knifed 500 people then i guess i was right in it not being obvious. That or perhaps you are... you seem to be taking this personally.

Just had a chance to look at stats, it been full almost since i posted it here!
I will take it off tonight after 6pm and change to normal conquest, i still havent had a chance to play that mode!
If there is enough intrest i could password it for ocuk members only for a right good ding dong!
Will have vent set up by then too

Because having a single stat is easier to compare with other players. Only the unique tags 'category' matters to most people.
That could lead into thinking "what is the point in non-unique tags?" but we've got them both, for better or worse.

Thanks for the explanation.
To me though I think having the list of players, and the the number of tags you've collected from that particular player next to is just fine, no need to have this unique, and non unique categories.

I like having the list when I'm looking at my own stats but if I'm comparing my stats to someone else it's easier to say "I've got 4 billion unique knife kills".
They probably won't believe me, but 4 billion is true. Honest.
I'm giving up for now. I'll come back to it after its been patched. There are countless small issues & bugs that need resolving before I consider it playable.
To name a few:
Multi core optimisations. Why is core 4 running at 100% & the other 3 at 20-30% ?
Time it takes to refresh the server browser or find a game on Play Now (I just tried this & after 45 seconds it asked me for a password for the serber I was trying to connect to!)
An option to cancel searching for a game after you click Play Now (I had to ctrl+alt+del to get out of the game because it was taking so long)
An option to save your server preferences (If I don't want to see full or empty servers the first time why would I want to see them the next dozen times)
Spawn issues. Why can the opposition spawn behind me as if they were in my squad & then stab me in the back?
The dissappearing HUD trick. It was there at first but now its gone. Oh so has my Xhair. Great...
Performance tweaks (This may be ATI). I would have thought a Quad core @ 4.2GHZ & an 5870 wouldn't drop down to 9FPS at certain points...
Oh yeah. Last but definitely the worst of them all: MOUSE LAG! Jesus Christ it feels like crap. Why do I feel like I'm trying to move underwater.........
Fix it Dice/EA! Back to MW2 for me. Unless someone has some fixes for any of these problems (tried turning off HBAO for mouse lag but I still get it. Just not as much)

I seem to get random "white screens" after variable amount of play, very frustrating.
I had the same question earlier, thanks for bringing it up, it wasn't obvious to me either.
Also M60 + Upgrade > *
We have a account stealer in the OcUK group i think
I had a chat request from him too. Fortunately, a) I'm not stupid and b) I don't accept chat requests from anyone not on my friends list.
The recon grenade thing will automatically spot enemies in its proximity when thrown. Its proximity is similar to that of Ammo boxes and Health boxes. It's very useful to chuck it into a blind spot (such as an MCOM room), to see if there are any enemies waiting.

Er not the Recon Mine, i know what they do and its awesome (i'm sure its proximity is larger than you say too...). I mean the 'Spot' upgrade for the Scope in the 2nd loadout specialisation set. It just says it relays things to your teammates or something along those lines but does bugger all. It doesn't do it automatically like i expected and it doesn't seem to make it last longer.
Because vac is ****.

Going to the website and manually updating worked for me.
So is PB
Well punkbuster at least streams, vac on the otherhand seems to ban people at a far later date. Id also imagine punkbuster gets updated more frequently than vac.
Punkbuster is a lot of hassle at times I must admit, on the other hand it is far better than VAC. Punkbuster has cheaters is a corner so that the only way they can get away with it is to pay for private hacks.
VAC on the other hand is a totally different story. Any clown can download a hack and as long as it's not any more than 2 weeks old get away with it 99% of the time. Not to mention VAC bans are delayed by 4/6 week.
People with Punkbuster issues have tried updating PB manually?

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU. Is anybody else getting really annoyed at the amount of snipers that just sit there and dont do anything, i just had a game where four of them just sat there shooting at random people while our mcom stations needed to be diffused.
