Battlefield Bad Company 2 Clubhouse

[shevanel]

at 85 fov it seems like the world is all uphill.. it doesnt feel right, yeah you see more at the 10 and 2 o clock position but it doesnt seem like its the "right" setting.

im keeping it at 59

 

[TRIPTEX_CAN]

Im sitting point blank on my 27" and I'm using 75. Works well me but I really think the size of the screen I'm using would affect the FOV I'm comfortable with.

 

[1Kurgan1]

Can you tell the difference? I tried to stand exactly to the left of that light green lilly pad looking patch which would be to the right of me also while trying to center the house to me. i can see more in the corners of fov 85, but the distance seems further.

FOV 59

FOV 85

It does show a lot more on the sides, but that is looking a bit fish bowlish. I been playing at 65 which is nice, think I'm gonna try 75 now though.

"-" Ping

The pings - problem is just a bug. We have tested here and the client only tries to ping the first 80 or so servers, so basically its totally broken.

We've forwarded this information to DICE, so hopefully they will be able to fix it in the next client patch.

Anyone Know how big the latest patch is ?

I would guess about 25 MB, maybe a little more.

I agree though I too would describe it as fishbowlish. But less than 70, at least for me, doesn't feel widescreen at all. I like 75. 1920x1200 here.

I'm not sure the size, but it downloaded in just about 30 seconds for me and I run about 5 mbs.

it was definitely around 20MB, was done before i'd realised it.

ha!

I just spent a whole round getting a 40mm nade to the face by 1 guy who i think NEVER fucking fired even 1 single round - He came top out of 2 teams. Im so fucked off that I dont even want to play anymore

Fov=74 and 1680x1050. I had it at 65 first, but wanted to try how FOV100 would feel. Forgot about it even so I guess it's OK

About that M60 tune, I din't like the gun at all, too slow firerate for my taste. But seems I'll hate to give it a shot (thousands of shots) before it goes away. I use the gun after M60, perfect for me. For Assault I use the second gun, engineer some G3/M14 action and sniper is hard one. Hardly like any of the guns, sniper rifles are useless close combat, although I do get shot by them trying to knife some snipers. VSS would be fun, but clip is too small, M1 Garand might be the best gun there

Infact I like all the old rusty weapons. They get me killed, but at least I die in style!

I know how you feel, played an hour on a server where 40mm was the main weapon for many and on that night rush map especially the and spamming was horrid. I never saw one guy shoot me with anything else than 40mm and he was 23 level. So much for the noobtube name :/ The time's I've been killed with M60 versus 40mm is something like 2:3, they are fixing the wrong thing.

The M60 is a nail driver, the slowest speed out of all the LMG's, but it has the most damage per round. You don't need numbers flying at them, 2 - 4 good connections should drop a target. The MG36 (the gun you use) is great, comes with the Red Dot without an equip slot, but does lack the damage.

I set mine at 80 and it seems to be just right at that same resolution you have.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I also ran into a guy who fired a pointblank M2 Gustav into my face - I died but he still survived - how the fuck does that work out??

I stopped using M60 when I died facing an engineer. I got 2 shots out and he got close to 10 and me dead. This was with 3m distance I like to go where the action is and MG36 is a good balance in close combat+distance shooting.
(still can't even remember the map names, hard to remember all guns.)

Oh is there M60-S in MP? Had it in SP mission that had M60 colletable. Though it was it but no. I liked that, no idea what is the difference.
edit: happen to have a screenshot of the gun

The collectible guns in SP are BS. Many of them are just modifications to standard guns by adding a sight, or slugs, etc. As such, you will eventually have access to all the collectible configurations, but it is not a seperate gun. If that is the gun in the pic, M60, equip 4x Optical Scope = that gun

 

[OnBoard]

Aah, so it's just M60-scoped. Well then I had a placebo effect on the fire rate or maybe it was because AI likes to die easier

 

[ShiBDiB]

the m60 in real life was a beastttttttttttttttttttttttt, fired one at fort dix a couple weekend ago along with its replacement the 240b


ghetto cell phone vid, 240b is the slower rof and u hear a 249 open up at the end http://img411.imageshack.us/i/0306001050.mp4/

Thats because the basic M60 hip firing is horribly inaccurate, when I used it like that I would get destroyed by almost any other class. The instant you use the LMG Accuracy equipment, close quarters you will demolish most any other class (except noob tubes and shot guns). Without the LMG accuracy, the M60 is a good gun, with it, it's an amazing gun.

Yep the M60 is amazing, I know people are saying it kills too easily, but honestly, the gun just hits like a hammer compared to most other guns in the game, and the slow fire rate helps keep it more accurate than the other guns.

 

[boise49ers]

DX 10 vs DX11 screen shots. Hey if any one with a 5000 series card gets bored, could you take some screen shots or maps with both settings so I can see if I can notice the difference.
It would have to be more then subtle to change cards, but if it is really noticeable I may have to upgrade when I get a new CPU. Of course by then they will have the 6000 series with DX12.

Yeah my son just got it on Xbox and loves it. Be awhile before I see it. My K/D is getting better at least. Just about to get mortars. Yeah I suck, depending on the server of course.

 

[boise49ers]

This may be a dumb question, but can Crouch be toggled. Trying to hold my middle mouse down and fight is a total pain. I like where all my buttons are set up so I prefer not to have to change that.

Aah, yes. That was the time I didn't have the accurancy thing unlocked yet. noob tube + explosive efficiency = noober tube!

Didn't know you could destroy a tank with one RPG shot from FRONT. Think it was the calr gustav thing + EE (the big noob tube? getting more popular anti personal weapon).

Anyhow, got killed from front with one shot in the bradley. I loved to destroy tanks with one shot in BF2142, but in this it hasen't been possible. Unless it is a bug weakspot or purpose hard one that the l33t only know

I believe there's a script from EA's forum that allow you to NOT holding Ctrl to crouch and Shift to run and it's legit.

BTW, don't want to be rude but you mind want to use the edit button .
