Behind you... Naked!
Its true.

I have only just started to get into BF2, and my monitor has just failed on me.

I was just playing the game, minding my own business and then I got shot.
I carried on, got shot again... And again, and again and again, so I hit the screen over and over and over again...

And now my monitor has stopped working.

Im going to ask for my money back!

:D

dito when u take the beer spills on the keyboard away i have knackered 3 from smashing them up over the years with different games :(
 
its a game...

I'm glad you havent learnt how to fight properly or some other sort of mind over matter skill.

:/

silly boy :P
 
The Missus found out.

I said the Monitor died and I cannot find the receipt, ( Even thoguh all my receipts for everythign are all sorted out in exact order and I can find any receipt within 2 minutes ) so I have ordered a new one.

The annoying thing is, that this one is a £400 Fujitsu job and so Im going to buy one of the cheap-n-nasty jobs... Should do for a bit I suppose.

Anyway, there is a small crack on the side of it and she put 2 and 2 together and said "Have I been playing that stupid game again?"... "No honey, why?".

Anyway, its amazing that you feel such a fool when you do something like this, but as soon as the missus has you by the curlies, you feel even worse!... How do women do this? - they are some kind of mind control beings or something? :confused:

Anyway, where was I ?

Its not only the fact that I hit the monitor really... I mean, I have hit the screen planty of times, but the last time I hit one, I have a big CRT... They took it. These flimdy TFT things dont stick to their guns do they? one little slap and they fly off the desk! - cheap junk. :D


Hitting the keyboard instead?

No, I used to do that, but I have gone through too many keyboards.

I got to just calm down... Ive only played it for a dew days... Hell, I have now even won a couple of levels... Im getting there, I just need to be patient.
 
Maybe you should only play pc games in the future wearing soft foam filled mittens?

I'm quite a quiet passive character really but whilst playing bf2 - and only bf2 I become some foul mouthed aggressive lunatic who wants to go on an unstoppable rampage and is furious if anyone gets in my way lol.

The trouble is losing your temper will make u an easier kill. If u are getting ownd then the correct way to deal with it is to set up an ambush.

In BF2 there are animations u do like going prone which make you invunerable for a second. There are players in BF2 who can run circles around u literally, using the old prone jump technique. Infact Ive been told that it is possible to cirvumvent the prone delay that was added (to stop prone-jump spam, otherwise known as dolphine diving).

The only time I get annoyed is when playing America's Army and u have a loud-mouth who either at the end of every round says "GJT" in global chat (i.e. not just to his team), or when, as someone was the other day, is spamming "ownd lol". Generally they do this when on defence as its easier to lie in wait in bottlenecks.

In BF2 thought when u have to wait all of 15sec to respawn, I find it hard to follow why u would get angry when u die.
 
No, to be fair, in most other games, I play, I die, I win, I lose... So what? Its part of the game.

I lose at first, I slowly get better, and then I start winning more and more, and I occasionally lose... Its all how it is, and I am happy with that.

The thing is, that with this BF2 lark, sometimes I die in the most stupid ways for the most stupid reason.

Example...

I have a M/C Gun... I fire like a tit at this guy running towards me... He is what? 25 or 30 feet away, my crosshairs are directly on his chest, and EVERY BULLET somehow cmissed him? - I run out of my magazine and so I start running backwards while changing my mag, and he then hits me with like 1 bullet and I die!!!!! - WTF?

Same with the Sniper... You cannot kill anyone if they are over 100 feet away??? - You supposed to be a sodding sniper FFS! - The number of times I might have a direct hit on an enemy and yet it has no effect on him, is unreal?

And that 15 seconds thing is realyl gettign to me... Its that huge delay that really bugs me like hell. Rather than giving me 15 seconds to calm down, its actually done the opposite. It gives me 15 seconds to get wound up, only to find myself either right in the thick of it and die instantly before I can get my bearings or miles away from the firefight, and having to run to where any action is, only to get myself killed by a tank who, somehow, and for an unknown reason, might be in the middle of a tank fight against my team, but yet manages to pop one off at the lowly old me several miles away!!!

Sometimes the whole game just seems too silly.

Im all for a fair game, but sometimes there is no way that half of what happens can really happen.
 
bf2 can be highly annoying, too many idiots using claymores as there primary weapon and people just camping in tanks!!!!! so what we did is make our server Infantry only and put friendly fire on claymores once the noob has killed a few of his own team with his gaymores he soon leaves. and we have much better rounds of one on one infrantry!
 
Hehe.. your not alone :(

I broke my keyboard 'accidentally' in anger when there were base rapers on the servers i was going on, sitting there with machine guns and spamming nades into spawn.
Then you had the recon who would just come down, drop a few claymore's so if you moved at all you died and if not you get blown up by RDX pak's.

Highly frustrating, makes you want to kick the commander and set a constant orbital strike on their heads followed by shooting the body with the bogatyr's auto cannons until they disappear.

*maniacal laugh* :eek::o
