True! I tend to forget that and associate the C4 with the assault class. Despite what I said, I've seen a recent 'twist' to the recon class forming - on the PC platform anyway. More and more snipers are ditching the long range primary weapons and going for the auto-shottys. At first, I thought...

Sort of. Like I jumped straight in using a Thompson on assault class and picked Magnum ammo and V-Hard as perks. I didn't have to 're-unlock' them again specifically for BC2 Vietnam. Obviously, recon's no longer get motion mines, but they do get TNT. Seems a very strange marriage of kit that for...

Aye. Long overdue m8. Long overdue.... D.

Ah, I see! Nope, it sticks with whichever game its currently running. Well, of the rounds I played it did anyway, though I'd guess that from a server admin point of view, it would be easy to chop & change between the two game modes. D.

Heheh! Sorry m8! :cool: D.

You switch m8. The background, the music, the appearance all changes. Click back and you're back to the normal BC2 screen. You basically pick one game or the other as I think you'll agree, playing Port Valdez with American GI's and the NVA would be a little daft. :) D.

It uses your existing stats, so I started BC2 Vietnam at rank 32. I guess it's similar in installation for the consoles as it is for the PC. In the last hefty patch update, it included BC2 Vietnam. Once you buy it from the EA Store, they email you a serial key. Then launch BC2 and in the upper...

Just had about 45mins on BC2 Vietnam - I'd say 6/10 on first impressions. The weapons seem very, very accurate - my accuracy is easily double that of standard BC2 weapons. Obviously suffering from a complete lack of map knowledge, but that will come in time. Some maps have definitive choke...

FLOL! I'd forgot about his utter hatred for PMs. Yep, give him a buzz instead! D.

If you're in the Midlands, PM Fred @ BTM - see if he knows of a particularly good bodyshop nearby? D.

Seem like a great idea. I need a decent run-up to get past a 50ft or so incline on the lane near us. The problem being that the start of the run-up is a 90-degree junction. Taking it too fast could plough me into any traffic coming down the lane. For the expense, these sound like a perfect...

I really enjoyed the SP story - some great set pieces too. Well worth attempting m8. :) D.

Don't forget that the specification changes slightly for the 182 based on the colour. An inferno or racing blue 182 will be a 182 Cup, whereas the black gold 182 won't be. D.

All the comments about black gold being difficult to keep clean are 3,000% true. It looks truly awesome when cleaned, PC'd and polished. But then a gnat in Libya decides to fart and the resulting effect is that the 182 is caked in s**t again. It has the perfection looking lifespan of around...

Has anyone got a game that they are determined to finish off over the Xmas period? There's a few that spring to mind for me, but I'm definitely going to finish off that bloody Batman Arkham Asylum! Just at that bit with Killer Croc's Lair - so I don't think I'm too far from the end before I can...

Inferno, black gold or racing blue? Not thought of liquid yellow or even better, petrol blue? :) D.

Excellent Fletcher - looks a really nice balanced motor. Definitely a credit to you! D.

Cool - fingers crossed then! :) D.

I really want to be impressed with BC2 Vietnam. But I just keep getting horrible, horrible flash-backs of Battlefield Vietnam. I'll still buy it because at under a tenner, it would be stupid not too. If however, it was full price, I think I'd hang on a while until the price dropped. D.

That's the double-edged sword with big game updates unfortunately. People flock to the newest addition and ignore the stuff that made the game great in the first place. As said, Port Valdez is one of my favourites and that's pretty much been abandoned now unfortunately. :( When people desert an...

Do you know if there's any record of the gearbox oil being changed, m8? It maybe completely unrelated, but my 182's on 80k now and I've had the gearbox oil changed three times - and will do again when it reaches 84k. I'm not saying it will make your gearbox bomb-proof but it certainly can't do...

Bit of a obvious pointer, but do you have a certain set of game search filters enabled? I used to select either Arica Harbour or Port Valdez for the most part, but since the new maps have arrived, I've only seen the occasional server supporting them. On the PC version too (retail, not Steam)...

Fit, basically. :) D.

Looks like they have patched the PC version - not sure if the same applies to the consoles, mind? Call of Duty®: Black Ops - Multiplayer Show posts for all products, not just Call of Duty®: Black Ops - Multiplayer FULL STORIES HEADLINES 16:02 Call of Duty: Black Ops Update Released Product...

Same here, tbh. Compared to a Mac, it's piss slow, but hey ho. :) D.

This for definite. The nVidias are extremely capable cards, but I suspect a little OTT for simply displaying multiple charts etc, like you mentioned. Such cards are high-end graphics intensive bits of kit, designed for things like shading, lighting, and polygon rendering. I'd PM Sharky UK if I...

If Middo's heading up to your neck of the woods, then definitely hang fire until he gets there! :) D.

You guys like your cars low! Most of those would be trashed in a day on the UK roads - lol! Good pics. :) D.

What I liked about ME2 is that it was such a complete step up from ME1. The original got a little bit tedious for me - literally upgrading each weapon with a +1 over the exact same weapon you had before. ME2 was a huge leap forward. I've only played it once, straight through to the end and...
