I wouldn't let one or 2 hackers stopping me from playing this game. Quitting don't stop hackers from cheating... It's your loss. I don't take these things seriously, there are ton of hack-free servers to play.

If i let these things bother me, games i could play are offline only.

QFT. What I take away from this is that the problem was addressed by DICE before it even affected me. (I haven't played in about a week. Been playing around with some BF2 mapping.)

Anyone have good server suggestions? I've been playing on a bunch of them and I spend most of the time getting shot to pieces by snipers. : /

Today's fun tip.

Swap kits while reviving medics.

If your medic gets killed take his kit with "G" change to the defibrillator and get close enough to revive him while still seeing the notification to "press E" to pickup your own kit. Then use the defib and press "E" at the same time. You will swap kits as he gets up.

i have been doing this forever, because i want my own kit back damnit. lol. i wish more people did this as well. i originally learned of this back when i first got battlefield, from a youtube video.

Yeah, I try that when I can, but in the heat of battle its hard to pull off, I like to revive on the run.

lol its true BC2 is full of dumb ppl I think it was the same with BF2 at start but it became really nice action after a short while after the game was released and dumb ppl kept leaving the game when there was too much action so it was ggz.

I just want a quick feel for something.

Does anyone thing any weapon in BFBC2 is CURRENTLY OP and needs tuning?

Feel free to list more than 1, but no more than 3.

Please don't bring up the Gustav as it is a missile launcher and its use on people is a tactical/situational move. I do it, you do it, we all do it. To the people who use the explosive upgrade, and explosive pouch upgrade because you spend the round sniping with it; I fucking hate you, you game ruining cunt.

When I'm not sniping I use the Gustav to take out snipers.

I think that may go the way of the dodo, unless we get some more users on regularily.

10 users is almost not enough though...sometimes we get a couple more people than that, but that's also very few people considering the membership/daily viewers here.

TS3 servers are cheap. IF someone will run a 16+ one, I will gladly donate some cash to cover costs. should cost less than $100 for a year. I will gladly cover half that...but I'm so totally not in to having any responsibility.

Had some good playing last night with TPU guys...i think there was 8 of us at one point, all in 16-man server.

I'll be on again later tonight...around the same time.

I was having performance issues last night (only 30% usage on each core and 40 fps no matter what settings I used) but I got it sorted out at like 2am so I should be in better shape tonight. I dont know what fixed my problem but I did try every tweak I could remember at the same time. I got my usage back up to 60-70% finally.

you can run a 32 man TS3 server for free under their license. don't pay anyone for it.

My personal connection doesn't provide the bandwidth for it. I also have no interest in moderating a server, or any of that. I know you can run servers for free, so whoever will run it gets my cash. ;)

If we all pitch in a few $$ each, actual bandwidth costs should be covered, with a bit extra ;) The way I look at it, we have about 30 people on TPU who both post and play BC2 regularily, and we actually seem to play together quite often, with the TS up. I've been on almost every night the TPU server has been up, and have played something with someone.

That's a service to me, and one I'll gladly pay for. $50 is less than $5 a month...I've had enough fun for it to be worth that already. ;)

I don't get this, I been pretty frustrated the past few days with this game. I don't know if I'm getting worse, or if everyone is getting exponentially better, just seems unreal, I really didn't notice my small decline at the begging on this month, but the last 2 - 3 days I have noticed I get on craptastic teams every single round. Last night played about 8 hours, my teams on diff servers lost every single game, and almost always the enemys entire team is all positive KDR, and I'm struggling to hit 1.0. Decided to look at my chart and see, and it verifys it, maybe I'm just getting unlucky and getting grouped with a lot of snipers (which seems like its been happening). But usually if a team sucks, a few rounds later people change and move around and then its back to balanced or then my teams great, I been holding out in servers expecting that to happen and it never does, very aggrivating :/

Look at the yellow line :/


Also looking at my lifetime KDR list that shows every day I have ever played, out of my worst 10 KDR days, 7 of them are from September.
