Exact one I was looking at think I may get one for the boy also.

What colours can it put out and are they bright enough?

Battlelog fine for me.

For £5, you might as well buy a couple!

Just white although my wall is red

Crap photo but you get the idea:

I had to cut a lot of to get my ideal brightness/glow and there is still a fair bit left lol. They are VERY bright.

What's the basis for backlighting? Just ascetics?

Mostly, but I found it also helps/improves with:

- giving the "perception" of better blacks/contrast ratio
- makes the screen pop/stand out more, almost a floating look
- doesn't make bleed/IPS glow as obvious
- easier on the eyes in dimmer/dark conditions

Hmmmm I have seen ones that are coloured, I want Orange to match my build and going to get blue for the boy to match his.

More digging required.

Yes I am doing it for purely aesthetic reasons, although I don't like having a light on at night when I am gaming so if they are bright enough I can do away with my lights on.

Mynight · 10 Dec 2014 at 18:28

Battlelog down for anyone else?

There's been a Battlelog update requiring a new plugin installation. Unfortunately a lot of users are unable to join any game since the update. Threads are cropping up now on Battlelog and Reddit. Don't know what to expect when i get home now.

Josh · 10 Dec 2014 at 18:30

Bit early for me, should be on around 8.

tbyeah · 10 Dec 2014 at 19:01

GothicGhost · 10 Dec 2014 at 19:04

Online login is currently unavailable

setter · 10 Dec 2014 at 19:23

Josh · 10 Dec 2014 at 19:24

Took a while but I'm in!

Locky · 10 Dec 2014 at 19:29

Can login but can't join any games.

MissChief · 11 Dec 2014 at 04:10

There was a plugin update today. Try a manual punk buster update?

snips86x · 11 Dec 2014 at 06:57

Still can't login. I managed to get in yesterday eventually, but it seems down again. I get this:

What makes it worse is the fact I have 4 hours this morning where I can play BF4 :mad:

not impressed!

Jesus, had a private "warning" message from our friendly resident mod stating that I posted an image that was too large.

Think of the children! Chaps make sure your pics are inside the alloted rules, don't worry about trolls harrasing people, worry about your picture size.

Anyway...

Enjoyable games last night but it just seems we have hit a spot where we get nothing but gash players on our team. When its 32v32 and only 9 of our team is trying to do anything to cap flags just gives me the right hump.

Every game it felt like we were carrying the long range recon lot.

Also the OcUK Platoon now offer Rage & Angermanagement Services, please contact of our specialist councillors for an in depth consultation. lmao

haha - that's amazing. If only DICE/EA had released the game in the same state the BETA was, the Rage & Anger-management Services wouldn't be required.

I recommend you note all the time used for counselling and send an invoice to get your money back!

I'll add that I'm a qualified coach and if you feel additional staff is required, please let me know

Yup ****ing awful games, don't mind losing to a "good" team, however, I can't put up when we are on a team with half a ****ing brain, really does **** me of big time when people camp outside flags, camp on roofs, don't flank etc.

On a separate note, nearly hit 300 comments on my friendship with ineedabigger gun lol!
