Do you ever play on European servers? I only ask because I was killing some guy several times with a very similar name to your TPU name :laugh:

Not that I know of, Tatty. My BC2 name is [TPU]MT Alex. Maybe there is some righteous dude from Montana named Alex trapped in Europe? It could happen.:D

Well, I finally got BC2 and started playing a few days ago. Unfortunately, I'm getting my ass handed back to me on a silver platter :(


BTW, how can I choose class or so I have to unlock these?

make sure your on ranked servers and you should be able to choose with kit you start with when you first join the server and waiting to spawn.

My suggestion is to unlock everything for each class before using the same guns over and over again, it also helps leveling up as well

Rank 27 now, damn this is slow progress, I just keep cycling through certain weapons in each category to get gold stars to help, I must be getting better though, I hardly ever get a negative K/D these days :cool:

The thing is with me, my average game does not see a lot of kills, I will perhaps get 14 kills to say 9 deaths but I try very hard to stay alive (without camping!)although I see a lot of guys running around like headless chickens perhaps getting 25 kills a game but with 20 - 30 deaths, I don't see the point of this in a squad based game especially in Squad deathmatch as every time you die, you are effectively handing the opposition a step closer to their win, yes you might increase your own rank faster but at the cost of your squad indirectly..... am I one of just a few here?

I'm with you there Tatty, but I have been know to go on headless rampages from time to time, but those usually don't involve me dieing, and there is a lot of stabbing related deaths to come of it.

No SLI in this mobo and one is enough :) Killing Floor was hitting 90FPS constant maxed out, seems like it's capped :p Once I get some sinks done on the memory and rest of not already sinked hot parts, then I'll venture on to some OC and max out.

And yes these are great and this model silent even on load :) No more bogging down on smoke. With 5770 it was impossible to shoot from M3A3 Bradley gunner position, while driver was firing away. Zoomed view all you got was smoke and explosions and no FPS.

Oh and was busy playing, forgot to post this here:

Same EVGA Gaming BC2 event that was before, but EU version this time. Started Monday, still plenty time to play, but registration needed to be done earlier :ohwell:

I'm sure you can max out and it'll still run without slowdown.

I run my rig on max 16csaa and is around 40-60fps (full hd)

You play just like me Tatty. If you need help you have to chase them down. I see tons of base rape now too. If I get on a good team based server I run at at about a 1.0 K/D ratio. Maybe this is why the price has dropped so much for the game. I still think it is ten times what MW2 is though. I hope to mother earth that Black ops is what I hope for. :toast:

Yeah, you know, I would like to see a little more thought in these squad based FPS, for example, lower rank score requirements BUT you only get points (kills) for a positive K/D ratio at the end of a game (example: 12 kills 6 deaths = 6 points) so everyone needs to be more realistic and not get killed as much, after all we aint cats and we don't get 9 lives in real life, that way this game really would be a tacticians dream, add to that only one class type per squad so you get an even balance of firepower in each squad, first to arrive on the server and into the squad gets to choose from all 4 classes, 2nd guy gets to choose from remaining 3 classes etc etc a bit like day of defeat Source in that respect, all of that combined would make the gameplay better IMO at least from a squad/tactical perspective.....but I am sure there are lots of "Headless Chickens" out there that would disagree, well if they do they can go play MW2 which is specifically developed for the Headless variety in any case :laugh:

I never said they were "fun". I was just stating a fact in Iraq they build one helluva IED.

Oh yes they do! alot os stubborn Americans think Iraqis are primitive and dumb but they are very smart when it comes to wiring up those types of devices. we once recovered an IED that was wired with GPS allocators with way points that were about 50 feet apart down the road to judge when the Humvee was coming and the speed it was traveling so once it came within 5 feet it would detonate!

They use surveillance cameras to watch the road and do analysis on when we come by each day.

What would you expect from one of the oldest cultures in the world? Honestly we are dealing with the "rednecks" of that nation. G-d help us if the Iraqi people were united against us. The whole situation just sucks.

that just excludes lower skilled players from ever ranking up.

the rich get richer, the poor get poorer - and stop playing such an elitist game.

that just excludes lower skilled players from ever ranking up.

the rich get richer, the poor get poorer - and stop playing such an elitist game.

Lol, you could argue just the opposite, seeing as mostly it's the better players that run around like "Headless Chickens"..... so if the better players kill less, the worse players die less? and of course, you get a more realistic strategy, unless of course you know people who get shot 25 times in a 15 minute battle and still live? Those lower skilled players of course don't rank up as fast as the better skilled players.... but isnt that the way it should go anyway? By the way, i categorise myself as a lower skilled player :p

This is why i like hardcore better than core.... (waiting on the E-bashers). In hardcore it makes the amount of bullets less for someone to die and sniper rifles as powerful as they are suppose to be. only thing i dont like is the long range shot gun slug shots, that is crap

Yeah, don't get me wrong, i love the game and I understand where Mussels is coming from but I do have a couple of fundemental issues, like the shotgun slugs, like the fact that if you shoot someone in the body with an M95 Sniper rifle at over 200 metres they dont die when in fact, even with kevlar the exit hole would tear most of their back off but I appreciate for the sake of gameplay some sacrifices have to be made, I just think dying (or not) is as important as killing but is not really represented as such in the game, there is little incentive to stay alive.
