LMAO. That has to the the single most funny comment in this entire thread!:toast::roll:

I have actually used this to my advantage. Just flip 180 in a knife fight right before they swing. It works really well.

I don't get it

(Assuming this isn't sarcasm) There is a glitch in the current version of the game that just about everyone has encountered several times. If you try to stab an enemy directly in the back (they are facing away from you), your knife will not do any damage. You must alter your angle for the kill to register properly. Dice knows this and says it will be fixed in the next patch (if they ever release the damn thing).

Yeah, one time I stabbed a guy 3 times in the back, got irritated, moved in front of him (he was a Medic calling in an air strike?) stabbed him 2 times, then my friend apparently was in his squad and spawns on him, stab one more time, get the Medic finally, I take off running so I can stab or shoot again, end up stabbing my friend on the way by (he doesn't die), I jump and flip around (I am like 10 ft away from him) and I die from being stabbed (he didn't get the stab charge, he was still 10ft away). He messages me and laughs, I was pretty irate, stabbed 7 times that should have all been successful and got 1 person.

he was a Medic calling in an air strike?

You keep the appearance of your spawn kit when you pick up the kit of a fallen soldier. The medic swapped his kit with that of a recon.

I know, but he was calling it that entire time I stabbed him 7 times, which is longer than it takes to call one, I think he was just standing there using it as binoc's.

Hey everyone, yep I'm still around.
Just to let you know the patch is currently sat in QA but due to some kind of striking in Romania we won't get results until tomorrow at the earliest with our server fixes.

Thats what we are waiting on at the minute to figure out where we are and when we can release.

Little update.

Your web browser maybe downloading something for you in the background. A large file you started a while again, an update, or just hold bandwidth to itself while running. If you close the browser and such, does the ping still suck?

yeah, even after running smart-close and killing everything (including my anti-virus) it still sucks.

it's not just battlefield either, I get the same issue with TF2 as well.

when I get my laptop this evening I'll load battlefield and see if I get similar issues (would narrow it down to my modem and/or router)

I was gonna go for a new deskie (gotta get off this dual core) but then I realized I needed a laptop in three months and I couldn't afford both. this was my solution.

anywho, I don't actually have the thing yet (UPS will be bringing is sometime today; probably more like late tonight.)

Nice laptop. my buddy just got one last week. It's pretty damn slick and he says it runs games smoother than his desktop running an E6850 with gtx295. He tested with L4D2 and starcraft 2 Beta. Runs pretty cool and quiet when idling and browsing but I dont know about gaming.

I have stopped knifing all together. it's too bugged for my tastes.

I do hope to see some larger maps and jets before fall, but I don't really see it happening.


edit* yeah, Ill post up my frames and temps. I don't expect it to have many issues as I usually run battlefield on all low (sans resolution at 1080p).

I had relaxed on knifing till the last 2 days, been averaging like 7 tags a map, not sure why, just seem to spend main guns clip no time to reload, spend pistol clip, then have to go toe to toe.

:eek: you bought a 17.3" gaming laptop for college? your gonna hate your life lugging that thing around and its 2.3" thick.

nice gaming laptop but definitely not what you want to bring to class every day.

EDIT: and reading the reviews, not even 2 hrs of battery life is going to be a major inconvenience as many lecture halls do not have power near the seats.

I may invest in a spare battery (or two); but yes, I will be searching for seats near walls.

as for weight, I carried a 30 pound backpack for the last 4 years, I think I can handle an 8 pound laptop.

you wouldnt be one of those morons that fire the gustav at pointblank in peoples faces would you?? (I hate people that do that because the retarded thing is the fuckers survive 95% of the time unless their stupidly low on hp & fired it as a mistake because you unexpectedly turned the corner & bumped into each other)

they should set a minimum distance before the warhead on it can arm & explode. pointblank shots should do about 50-60% damage to the player but it shouldnt kill you if your full hp.

(another reason for me to dislike the game)

it kills you if you fire it close. what you're experiencing is them firing it BEHIND you, and the splash killing you.
