i'm not really a fan of the 'hardcore' mode in bc2. i can deal with not having crosshairs and or anything with the guns (other than red dot and sniper scopes and iron sights), but when friendly fire is on...i just get annoyed.

I hope they fix the kit swapping while trying to arm/disarm the MCOM stations. I have died a few time cause of this.

Oooh, talk about annoying!

I kinda liked it. It was a refreshing, though completely ripped off, change of gameplay. I am sure I will not play it to often, but it is definitely interesting. My grips with it are the lack of the "assumed" sight for some guns and vehicles. Especially vehicles where it was the only way to tell what you are firing at. I also don't like the spot feature being semi disabled. You can still get points for it, but you don't actually spot anyone so others can see what you see, thus defeating the purpose. They should let the spot arrow appear for people without say 40 game feet of you and only for 1 or 2 seconds. While not truly realistic, they make up for things that cannot be duplicated in a game such as me actually yelling out, "Kill that dude right there by the riverbank."

its fine, but needs tweaking.

Hardcore mode was fine by me, but I won't play it, simply because, the bullet detection still isn't good enough on it. And everyone plays as a sniper, Being 10ft away from a sniper shouldn't be thought of as a dangerous shot, but when they can 1 shot you even if they hit you in the big toe, it is.

For those companies that thing Steam's system is bias, which is not true, it also works very very well.

Which drivers are you using? Try changing your sounds settings in the "settings.ini" file ... you might have sound issue.

I'm usually rush in like a rambo. :laugh:

TheLaughingMan · Feb 21, 2010

I follow Kid in and shoot the people trying to shoot him that he pretended didn't exist. Then when I die a horrible death, I wait for Kurgan to revive me.....unless he is on the other team, then I just get pissed because he was the one that stabbed me again.

H82LUZ73 · Feb 21, 2010

lol this one is good too .

The only things with good hit detection in the game currently are Defibs and Knifes :laugh:

I have mastered them, I can't wait for this game to come out so we can hit up some CTF though, starting to get sick of crates and watching skilless C4 runs.

Nice video, too bad he's playing on console.

Anyone notice the smoothness after the recent update? I sure did, everything seems smoother now.

Screw it. It won't update so I'll just uninstall it and wait until it is released in March.
Pretty tired of that map any way.

His sniper montage was on the PC. He’s a good sniper.

Yes it does I have multiple games thru steam. Wishing I'd went ahead and pre-ordered there. My retail copy better not get have this problem.

Kursah · Feb 21, 2010

Why not cancel your EA preorder? I did, though before the beta was released...I dunno if there are any circumstances..but the EA cancellation/refund was painless. I told em I wanted to cancel my preorder and get a refund, I used PP, gave them the info they requested, bam, ordered it on steam and was good to go. Doesn't hurt to at least contact em' and ask.

1Kurgan1 · Feb 22, 2010

I also canceled my EA pre-order, but it too was before I got my beta key. Granted 4 days left in beta, so they might not care now.

alexsubri · Feb 22, 2010

Hey guy's, I know this has probably been solved (i hope) or at least mentioned, but on my PC I keep getting disconnected for no reason. I have perfect pin, graphics card, psu, firewall is fine, punkbuster is up-to-date, so why am I keep getting kicked? Is it because a lot of people are trying to connect or it's taking turns lol? How can I solve this?

Thanks
