Very true.

I'm still not using the crossbow, in fact I couldn't give a rat's ass about it. Well, that's not true, I'm pissed off that it's the only weapon dropped with this expansion, hence my hostility towards it. True, it is an inanimate object and doesn't care what I think, but a man has to have principles.

I agree. Fat girls with small tits is something I wont stand for. Its like a Cadillac with a cloth interior. Unacceptable.

You are a funny MF'er. If it wasn't for that I'd hate yer ass
I remember everyone saying that about the Mass, but it wasn't
long until every one was having a blast with it. If the bow ends
up being anywhere close to as much fun as the M26 I'm all over it.

I won't really be using the xbow much, but I also don't mind we didn't get new weapons. Theres already quite a few over lapping weapons, where one is better than another at a specific role so the 2nd never gets chosen. Examples

How often to do you see these weapons being used
PP-2000, MP7, M16A4, Scar-L, MG36, and the list goes on.

I love the MG36 ! Though you are right I don't use it much.
Only because I don't run support to often.

It's not that it's horrible, but other Small LMG's like the L86A2, QBB, RPK, or M27 are better at just about everything.

In BC1 and BC2 the MG36 was a damn good gun. But thats because it came with a free scope. Other weapons oyu had to waste a Gadget slot to equip one. But not on the MG36, so that helped it stand out. But it doesn't get that bonus anymore.

Love all 3 of those. Though I think the L86 is my favorite, it's so accurate for an LMG. It's my go to Small LMG and I'd say the M60 is my go to Large LMG.

Oh I loved it as I already commented about. I had just spawned like I said and saw you approaching for a split second and mistook you for a teammate and did not react, partly cause I had really no clue what was going on yet but also because there were a few teammates right there incl. Ryeath on whom I had just spawned. Talk about wrong place, wrong time. Opposite for you but, regardless, someone on my team should have been able to take you out before you locked on me, the bastids.

So, yeah, even tho I'm not on TS I don't really join servers to play against you guys so I just bailed. Not sure what Ryeath was doing exactly; looked like he could have been on your team had he wanted.

I had more bad luck on the next server too tho lol. Got three C4s on a tank but it only disabled and the dude was able to hop out and get me.

Spawning on Reayth is always a bad idea. You are better off spawning on me in a chopper.

Lesson learned. The hard, sharp, pointy way.

At least it wasn't compliments of Orhan.

These weren't available then. I checked myself before going to bed, even, wondering why they didn't. I guess they turned them on this morning.

I had a dream last night, after being pinned by so many XBows, that they came with heatseeking darts. How lame would that be...

Also, anyone know if there's a way to change your screen name? For instance, to avoid confusion, I'd like to change mine from Zulfrex to Jed.

Woot! I am finally a Premium player, thanks to greenman code in TPU game deal thread.

I am happy that I already earned my unlocks like the solfam, c4, defibs, etc. I see they are a freebie bonus with Premium.

If you TPU soldiers wish to stick a knife in my back, my BF3 name is: xlenduroman. (xl like Honda XL motorcycle I had way back, enduro as I ride them.)

I honor that I have been shot down out of a heli or jet, and just take it, and wait for it to spawn again and get back up there. rather then landing in a hot zone of infantry hell fire and scrambling to survive.
