Funny, not ha ha funny, but this has been the knock forever on ATI.
You'd think their R&D department would catch on to this after how long ?

[crazyeyesreaper]

LOL i ment 2d clocks LOLZ

[Altered]

10.9's are working for me. Using the BC2 profile didnt seem to do much. About the same as 10.8 for me and they worked well enough.

Why does everyone keep changing their drivers? If 10.4a works, why update 5 more times between then and now, with nothing but misery?

Did you notice some ppl try to modify/make you play the game so they don't get annoyed by being owned with certain stuff?
I mean with BF2 it was constantly "NO BUNNY HOPPING" because some fellas didn't know how to press 4 buttons on a keyboard and kept accusing ppl of binds and similar now its "no AT vs infantry" and some servers actually block these saying "shooting infantry is not what its made for", so I can't use defib on anybody to kill him because "noo its not for that".
I even saw somebody get booted from a server for "USING AT" ... sad.

Its too bad ppl try to make others play how they want instead of playing the game as it is made. There is so much fun with marking infantry with your teammate ^^

While I agree about the AT vs. infantry point, it is annoying to see 8 out of 12 guys on the enemy team do nothing but kill with the Gustav. I think it should be allowed that you can shoot the missile and set it off before it reaches you. That would be cool and fair and cool.

No bunny hopping was needed period. When I first got BF2 and logged on I literally saw 40+ people all jumping constantly while trying to shoot people. It was laugh out load stupid. That is not was combat looks like on any front. And it was worst when people would jump, then lay out flat at peek height, then fire. Not only is that stupid, but physically impossible. It turned the game into, "Fight like us or don't play the game." So sorry to say I think you are completely wrong on that and supported their decision to prevent Dolphin Diving.

More frustrating than even that is when you go on a server with loads of rules scrolling across but no admins there to enforce them.... like for instance "No tank" but everyone still uses the tank anyways, personally i don't mind rules as long as they are enforced for everyone, I have been on some servers that honestly have said:

No tanks
No bunnyhopping

Anti tank only on vehices and buildings (although no tanks!) if someone is in building and they die then they accuse you of using AT on them

No defib kills
No stabbing

I usually just message the server asking if it is actually OK to kill people and then leave.

[sapetto]

Another thing is the class and weapon limitation. Choosing my favorite weapon and class, clicking enter battle and then suddenly suicides because there is a limit of 1 Akaban or M95 or whatever per team...

[Nick89]

I don't have any issues with AT vs infantry. There really is no problem with it. I play Recon/engineer. If the AT is made useless against infantry then the Engineer will have NOTHING worth while to kill people with. Why would you use an SMG to kill when you can use an assault rifle or a MG. the SMG the engineer has is only a defensive weapon. The AT is the only offensive weapon the engineer has.

It seems people don't understand game mechanics.

I don't have a problem with it because I know how to counter it. If it is really a problem for you, you are doing something wrong.

NOTE: This post is not directed at anybody in this thread.

Please don't compare BF to 'reality'. Its not a tactical shooter just an arcade game. Kicking somebody for bunny hopping or any other strickly gameplay related thing and then saying its unrealistic is like kicking for using strafe jump in Quake and saying ppl shouldn't fly.

I get it some young boys make rules on their servers but the fact is that they put their disapproval/hate toward things ingame that developer made and throw it at other players that just play the game.

PS. Fighting vs a good player in 1v1 situtation in BF2 was really a lot of fun for me while BC2 its just stand still,scope,shoot short series and maybe chase each other around a building.

they accuse you of using AT on them

[crazyeyesreaper]

if i want to play with noob toobs caleb id play MW2 like a pussy if i want to shoot ppl with a gun and watch them drop i play battlefield thats pretty much the way i see it and engineers have plenty of good weapons 1 hitter quiters as laughing man puts it aka neostad + magnum rounds etc usas 12 with extended clip isa full auto shotgun. If people cant use a gun to drop someone why are they playing an FPS to begin with they should go back to halo and mw on console if thats the case. I use shotguns only period and many here on TPU can attest that with gimped weapons i still do damn good without having to resort to noob tubes to get all my kills

You got almost as many headshots with your top pistol as I do kills. But I use almost all of the pistols, just started using the 1st one and the MP-443 and I actually like them a lot. But I rarely use my pistol unless I've used my clip, and have no time to reload, but more people to kill.

I don't completely hate bunny hopping, everyone is going to do it when panicking if they don't know where they got shot from. But when it comes down to coming toe to toe without a single person and every time they jiggle around like jello, it gets rather annoying, it doesn't give me a huge issue as I usually just start to stab them then, but I still think it's stupid, if it's a good player they will flank you and kill you, not come face to face with you and jiggle around.

Like I rarely use my grenades to kill, I use them to make people go where I want them too. If someone is in a room with 2 exits and they don't know where to go, I'll toss a grenade in 1 of those exits, they hear it and coming running right out the other just like I wanted them too, and since they are sprinting from the grenade and I'm waiting for them, they can't shoot sprinting and they die. Strategy > Jiggling.

The other day a co-worker that I play with was bringing up a time where he chased me into a house and I went up on the roof, one of those houses with 2 ladders onto the roof. When I got up there I went and tossed a grenade down and through the downstairs door on the outside ladder, then I turned around to shoot anyone coming up the center ladder, he came right up it because the grenade, he wanted to kill me, so instead of going down stairs, he did exactly what I wanted to, he came right too me. He asked how I knew he was going to come up that, and I said, "because I made you", and he wasn't too happy after I explained how I played him.

I like to see people getting kicked for bunny hopping not because it's unrealistic but because it's simply GAY. Like 2 guys together, naked, fuking. GAY.

A hop and a turn when you get shot is a reflex though and not classified as bunny hopping IMO. Bunny hopping is repeatedly and consistently hopping everytime you are engaged by the enemy. If you dont have the drop on someone before they see you and you hop releatedly like a douche.... then you're a douche.

/rant

*Don't mean to offend anyone. I just think hopping is a waste of time.

[MT Alex]

I played on a few servers that only allowed smoke/shotgun on the 40mm before the first nerf. GLs were pretty over the top when the game was first released.

I would frequent a server that limited recon, as it is the most inhibiting class for an action packed, cooperative game. I don't mind getting shot, it's just most of the time they are self centered, and offer little towards victory. If I type anything in the chat bar (especially in RUSH) it's usually: You can't win by sniping. Not to mention they usually offer horrific spawn points. GRRR! Sniping douche bags.

[DrPepper]

Bunny hopping was an art in BF2 I was fricking amazing at it even before I figured out you could macro it but I never used that because it's cheating.

[cadaveca]

I don't think hopping makes any difference in BC2. I do it on occasion, still died every time, from aim giong nutso, meanwhile, dude sitting stable with feet on the ground just keeps firing...I usally only hop trying to come in for the knife kill...only got it once or twice...

[brandonwh64]

yea bunny hopping in BC2 doesn't help at all, i was usta it after playing counterstike for so long but it made no diffrence

[GullyFoyle]

Two situations where I bunny hop:

in BF2 in a CQ battle and you run out of ammo. You have no option but to bunny hop to try and stay alive until the gun reloads (in BFBC2, you'll be dead before it reloads!)

in BFBC2, try to get from point A to point B, where there are pebbles or twigs or other debris on the ground. You have to two or three times just to get moving!

[Mussels]

bunny hopping is what i do when an enemy shoots at me and i dont know their location - its a strategy i like to call "OH FUCK OH FUCK RUN AWAY"


also, a poem written for the above situation.

When in fear, when in doubt
run in circles scream and shout!

helps a lil bit occasionally to avoid head shot (insta kill) but ur right

[TheLaughingMan]

Jumping a few times to avoid death cause someone shot you and you didn't see it is not bunny hoping to me. That is panic.

This is bunny hoping to me and what use to piss me off: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paYHn...eature=related

Mussels had the best answer ever.
