Being on the TS3 would probably jump your score per minute up by 30-50, but whatever your choice man, seldom ever see you on with any of us to begin with, back in BC2 if anyone joined on you normally you quit the server.
But that's kind of the problem. The few times I have listened in I couldn't really tell who was who and the chatter didn't seem to follow the match, so to speak. Also, everyone on both teams is generally in the same channel which is kind of counter-productive.

And as for "real people" I think you guys know what I meant. As in, "in person" where you can pass me a beer or whatever.

Yes I know what you mean, My wife is the same way! I always wait til shes alseep or studying for college when I get on TS but that doesn't make me unsociable. She understands that sometimes I need my alone/stress release time and I do that in the form of video games. You make it like your too good for us and you want to tip toe around your G/F and make her the scapegoat.

Been married for 10+ years and have two daughters. Not saying this is your case but you gotta be able to tell em to f#$k off once in a while. If not you end up being a punk. Again I'm not saying you are in anyway. Just saying do what you want within reason. If she has a problem with something simple like "TS" then what happens when something serious goes down?

On a side note I have discovered there is a reset button at the end of the large intestine. Press on that real good and they will leave you alone for a least a week.

Yeah I hear you all...honestly though this is more about my experiences on TS and also the fact I just don't like voice chat for some reason more than anything regarding her.

I'll give it a shot again at some point and maybe even start liking to use it. I definitely do like the idea of the different team rooms for those that are actively playing on the same server. Seems to make a lot more sense though I see why others may be opposed as it changes the general dynamic.

well most of us stay in 1 channel simple because in the off chance you knife someone well they are right there in the channel so you can rub it in, its part of the competitiveness think of TS the way most on here us it, like Goldeneye 007 was back in the day with 4 ppl playing split screen TS3 kinda lets you do that but without the cheapass tactic of looking at other ppls screens haha.

Agreed. There is nothing quite like calling out your target any getting the knife even after giving a warning.

edit: So I was enjoying the symphony playing the 1942 and BF2 themes. I then went back and listened to the BF3 theme and realized it's not entirely new (like I thought). It's just a remix of 1942. I can't believe I just noticed that.

His entire channel is full of hilarious BF3 stuff. I think it is because of his laugh.

Maybe you should invite yourself to a party and invade a server.

Got my first repair tool kill, yes you read right, not to a vehicle, but as you would with a knife, only much more embarrassing for the person on the other end. Tried a defib kill, but wouldnt work.

Also tried the DAO for the first time in a long while and got 40 kills in 2 games with it. (which is pretty epic for my standards). With increase mag capacity, It is a devastating weapon. Who needs USAS?

And got a new personal record of how long i can stay up in a chopper without crashing: 34 seconds. Beats my previous record by 10 whole seconds.

So its all happening here.

Takes longer to pick it up.
Yeah, overall I agree. I think BF3 does have a bit of a sharper learning curve. I think the main factor in the games feeling different is just the map design. More hallways, less destruction. Also the harsher damage model, but I think if the maps were a bit more open and more buildings dropped I would enjoy it a bit more.

Yeah you got me good, I just hosed down 3 out of 4 in a Squad over by the road, then the Squad Medic ran out and started reviving them. So I turned back around and was dropping them and hiding to reload, got 3 of them again, was working on the last one when you jumped down behind me Thats what I get for being a Flag Attacker I seen you slashing wildly after my tags in the river between D and C earlier that round.

Honestly man I wasn't trying to stab you. I never read names when I play. If I see someone I can stab, I stab. If its a TPU member I feel bad afterwards........unless its G8tor lol. I must have stabbed MT Alex two or three times last night. Once I jumped out of a helicopter landed behind this dude like Rambo and shanked him. I was just about to brag how nasty I did this guy and that's when I noticed MT Alexs tags. Felt bad.

However I now have a higher stab per minute then Reayth which suprised me. Hell I got two melee ribbons last night alone.

I must have just found you in the river with an empty clip, would explain why you were dodge, duck, dip dive, and dodging around. I just assumed you were going for my tags Was a good time last night though, lots playing, our team was down a bit, but gave me a good opportunity to wade through the corpses on the way to flags. Then I got switched to your team, didn't realize it for like half the match.

Sorry to bring this shit up again but I missed this one yesterday and want to directly respond to it. Firstly, I do not understand how it's a good time to be on TS and thus talking out loud "when she is sleeping or studying" because doesn't the noise wake her up or bother her too much when she is trying to concentrate? Perhaps we have a much smaller place (no carpeting either to absorb any noise).

Also, I never intended to make it seem like I was "too good" or "above" you guys in any way. Granted, I am not as interested in the "social" aspect of the server but that is nothing at all personal. If such were the case I wouldn't be in the Platoon or join you for games whenever I can (despite not being on TS).

Yeah was a good "TPU night" last night. I actually even got a spot in a squad with Kurgan and Ufgy for a short time. :P Glad I didn't stick around for the pointy end of MM's shank tho.
