Battlefield Bad Company 2 Clubhouse

Those are goats. Not Taliban

That wasn't what the first release of it said. I'am gonna have to research some more.
Sure looked like human parts flying off to me :confused: Still if you got hit with one
no body armor is going to protect you with that velocity and weight of bullet.

Yeah there seems to be some controversy over authenticity of this. Half say it is real the other say BS.
Guess it is one of those thing you have to let yourself decide.

In case you doubted:

Map Pack 6 Pic

There should have been an announcement today, but the Community Manager was sick.

Man they sure could liven up our day by giving us actual new maps.
That would be great. I can think of quite a few parts of the first player
that would have great areas for maps.
 
50 cal bullets have been used in almost all MP FPS titles I can think of, and none of them ever have been 1 shot to the body killers. They want people to be able to use legendary weapons, but they don't want them to be that OP. If they didn't put those weapons in the game people would be upset, and when it comes down to something like a sniper rifle, they would have to leave out all of the bolt action rifles because realistically they should all 1 shot kill to the body, so Recon wouldn't really be Recon. It's more about the play style of the class.

I hear what you are saying, I supppose my point really is.... what is the point in waiting right to the end of the recon "class up" to get an M95 if it gives you no advantage over other Sniper weapons? As I see it, each weapon has it's different strengths but if ALL of them need a headshot for a single shot kill beyond a couple of hundred metres then we might as well have just had the M24 at the beginning with no others, you expect to get an improved weapon with more attributes and/or firepower as you progress. Of course the same applies to the other classes to a certain degree but surely the whole point of playing through recon is to finish up with a superior weapon.... in fact the M95 is less accurate than the M24 or Gol and outside of that couple of hundred metre radius it is no more effective..... in fact not so sure it is any more effective inside that radius due to it's slightly inferior accuracy.

Sorry..... EA
 
rehashing maps and nothing really new. so glad i don't waste my time playing this, still!
 
I think it would be safe to say, that as a community that started with the earlier battlefield titles (pretty much any of them) we were/are expecting bigger, at least 64 man support. but all dice is putting out is smaller. I would be trilled at these new game modes, except that I'm bored with the small, bottle-necked maps we already have.

my 2 cents.
 
Mind if i join up? Boneface-CoRe*Boneface- Sniper, Assault, Engineer
 
I always have trouble roadkilling people with the UAV.

You should have never let me see people being killed with its smoke bombs, cause I thought I was the only one who used them. Time to go kill people.

(yes, its a joke)
 
Since its been about 3 months since I've played........

Last drivers I have installed is 10.4 and I keep seeing bad things said about drivers since with BC2. Is this all past and is it even worth changing from them to 10.7s?

Only have a single 5870 right now.
 
My game plays just fine. I have one very small issue with Atacoma Desert, but %&$^ that map.

I don't even have an ATI card, but I talk to a lot of BFBC2 guys, and word I hear is if your main concern is BFBC2, stick with 10.4, with the load fix patch. There are only issues to be had with newer versions, not improvements.
 
It is good to have Scrizz back on the field.
 
so whats the deal with bc2 and teh 5870 ? use 10.4 drivers only or else problems ?
 
Not 10.4, but 10.4a preview driver. However, for Crossfire, 10.6 works best. 10.7 is garbage on all performance fronts...from artifacting and horrible anisostropic filtering, to bad AA performance.

Oh, and v-sync has been broken for Crossfire for months now, too, just FYI.
 
my main question is will i have issues running bc2 on a non CF 5870
i don't want to go back to doing the driver dance i just want the damn thing to work right, if that's the case i might just have to buy something ferni based even tho i really don't want to.
