That was an odd post. :wtf: :laugh:


For some reason I just can't back into playing BC2. It's caused in part because of all the crap I have to put up with to play (system crashes mainly). I'd really like to get some new maps soon. What ever happened to the TPU server? No one is ever on.

How now! a death? Dead, for a ducat, dead! The quality of mercy is not strained,
It droppeth as the gentle urine from heaven Upon the place beneath. For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the slut of kings. Thou thing of no bowels thou!

Thats possible, but you had said single shot before, and I feel the only LMG that is good in small round bursts is the M60, the rest lack the damage per round, but also every other LMG in the game has a faster rate of fire.

The MG3 is better then the M60 for me.
1. short range encroaching medium range, hold down the the trigger and I out gun someone with M60
2. Medium range and beyond short burst
3. Long range single shot

It really is an under estimate weapon.

By the gods!! Thy weapon of choice doth be underpowered!!:eek: Those unscrupulous fools society deems worthy of the title "developer" art of the foulest of natures.:mad: They hath defiled the past far too long! By lasting reminder, the glorious warriors of long past did use such weapon and did slay many.:rockout: They who call themselves Developers have fouled their memory!!:banghead: If mine recollections do remain, to debuff the weapons of the past be blasphemy!!! :twitch:

The MG3 is a great gun, I'm just saying it is the worst single shot LMG in the game, it's not meant to single shot, all of the other LMG's do more damage per bullet and would be better suited to it.

I find my best spot for the M60 (with Iron sights, I don't use Red Dot or that other crap) is actually medium to long range, just pull the trigger for a single bullet at a time, and tombstone people. Close range a faster weapon would be nicer.

Double-click shot is my style. Using the same style I always run out of ammo for the MG3 :laugh:.

I wish the Thompson SMG was more damaging. After all, it fires .45ACP. Odd isnt it that it deal so little damage compared to the G3. i know the G3 is more accurate, but come on...if the 1911 can kill faster than the thompson firing the same bullet there is a problem. Also, they should have allowed the M1 to have a bayonet as the knife when equipped. People say it would break the game, but I dont think so. I think it would balance out the rifle. It fires slow, doesnt deal much damage unless you hit directly center mass or headshots and is slow to reload and slow to aim with no attachments. Make a bayonet attachment at least. If you have the bayonet attachment then the knife animation is you stabbing them with the bayonet. Also, with the bayonet attached, the accuracy would be less.

You get my BC2 friend invite, I thought you had been on my list, but now your gone. Your the only one I see constantly playing, if you didnt get it toss me one or I'll toss you another. Need to keep us active TPUers together.

just as a heads up, i've been playing around with MSI afterburner and its fancy OSD option to show my real time GPU usage in game... and my system is massively CPU limited.

30-40FPS in some scenes (mostly when looking over large portions of the map) - but my GPU's are at 30-50% (never goes above 55%)

This game really does need a triple core or better if you wanna max it out, more video card power aint gunna cut it on its own.

i wish i could butt-stroke people with the m1 or m14 instead of the knifing. Butt-stroking them would make it easier for us to fight close quarters with the ww2 assault rifle.

5870 hasnt arrived yet. in power its going to match my two 4870's, just gives me a lot better power efficiency + DX11


4.2GHz has made my bottleneck be largely reduced, min FPS of 35 really does make a difference.

Butt-stroking is where you take the butt of your rifle and smash their face in with it. It is used and has been used in the Armed forces for Decades. Also, it would not break the game.I mean come on, Americas Army 3 has it.

Power Supply Corsair HX 750W Gold
Software Windows 7 Pro x64
5870 hasnt arrived yet. in power its going to match my two 4870's, just gives me a lot better power efficiency + DX11


4.2GHz has made my bottleneck be largely reduced, min FPS of 35 really does make a difference.

Where do the card ship from for Newegg? Im waiting on my 5850.

anyone know how to get cheap CD keys for the steam version of BC2? housemate wants to get it, but not at the ripoff steam prices.

(retail and EADM are cheap on ebay, but he only wants steam)

I'd use the EADM version and just activate it though Steam. Personally I hate using steam with BC2. I've always found it to run slower and have more crashes/freezing when I run with Steam open.

oh, about the GPU usage and CPU dependency... my quad sits @ 80% usage when I play this game and my GPU usage fluctuates between 50% - 75% this game is just too CPU heavy and since the last patch things have changed. Actually the only game that can keep 99% load on both GPUs is Lost Planet. Even COD:WaW at the highest settings only uses 30% of each GPU. :ohwell:

you cant activate it through steam except as a non-steam game, and he doesnt want that. He's a nut for having the stats (X hours played this week, etc)

I see, well if he wants all the features he might just have to pay steams (completely retarded) price.

Do you know what "rush processing" means? Newegg offered it but I didnt take it.
