Not necessarily a 'bad thing'. But as I said, both the G3 and the M14 especially are very potent in their standard form by people who know how to use them. Personally, I'm terrible with them - just over 10% accuracy on the G3 and worse on the M14 at 6% (lol). The problem comes more so with the...

Exactly that. There's a world of difference in owning a PC from a £300 offer at PC World/Dell or spending many times that and having it last years. My Antec P180 case is still going strong and in a few months it will be 5 years old. Such parts are built to last and last well - even through the...

FFS EA - why do you insist on making it SO difficult to find the latest patches for things??! :) It's only by trawling other websites that I've actually found a link to the latest patch. EA just sit there and promote stuff but don't actually tell you how to acquire it. Complete nut sacks... D.

Ah, excellent! I'm off work today so I'll give BC2 a bash later this afternoon. :) D.

Really? Interesting. The M14 was always crying out for a decent scope option, but now that it sounds like its here, I'm not sure it's a good thing. Standard, potent weapons in BC2 should be left alone with iron sights - the M14, G3 and Thompson especially. I like conquest, but much prefer rush...

Never even seen WoW - let alone played it.... D.

Would anyone have suggestions for an email/ help desk based software to support around 200 users? We're after using a central email address that can log IT requests from staff, ideally with time monitoring and assigned staff IDs. Reports from these requests would also be very useful. I would...

Draytek. Any of them... D.

One of my favourites too - I love playing the Russians on that and holding off those Abrams tanks and snipers up on the hillside to the right. :) It confused me for AGES with the difference between the Rush and Conquest maps. On one of my first attempts at BC2 online, I joined a game and we...

PMSL! Are you trying to pigeon-hole the Welsh Arab? ;) D.

I will do - I'll look forward to it! :approve: D.

"Downloaded" (note the quotation marks) the SPECTACT DLC for the PC version. £3.99 for the privilege of something that was already in the fecking game!!! No download - not even 1MB in size. Just an automatic unlock when you buy it. Fecking hell DICE - that's a bit of piss-take isn't it? Like...

Lol - not a chance m8. I've got my speed awareness course on Tuesday - I didn't want to tempt fate! ;) Ph.1 looked epic - silver really does suit the shape imo. Nice to have the let on too. Recently I've noticed a fair few RS owners just looking at me stupid like when I let on. D.

I remember it from the last meet. No way was I going to even attempt to take it on - lol! D.

Fcuk me - that thing is fast.... :cool: D.

Frustratingly for me, that appears to be the best tactic. Find a room, floor or alleyway with few entry points - claymore one end and cover the other end, scoped up. Running about from cover to cover just sees me getting killed again and again. Made worse by the fact that all COD games have that...

Tried it with a few PC m8s and I do really like that mode. Going to try BO online again though later. :) Btw, can you alter/create a class while you're in-game? Or do you have to quit back to the server lobby to change? D.

Lol. Just lol. Just come offline again before I did anything remotely close to damaging my PC. I feel this game is like I've just necked back a pint of rats piss in a pub and everyone around me is saying "tastes good, doesn't it?". Erm, no it doesn't actually. Roll on tomorrow where I'll give...

Ah - a birthday present to myself, then! :) Still haven't nabbed the map update yet - I'll have to get that done this weekend. D.

Lol - what's with quoting a 2002 Turbo and comparing it to a modern day M5? That's like comparing Joginder Singh's Lancer 1600GSR to an Evo X. World's apart.... D.

Twice in one thread! I am doing well! :cool: D.

I think you're missing the point at what I'm (we?) are trying to get at. It's not about numbers, stats or even efficiency. It's a continuation of a legacy that has grown a solid fan base and appreciation of doing something a little 'unique'. Mention the M-brand and immediately the image of a...

I think you've summed it up far better than me, m8! I guess with BC2 I focus really hard on trying to help the squad. As an engineer, I repair/protect the vehicles. As the recon, I'm spotting for the team and trying to engage at long range, while healing team members as a medic or providing...

I don't think it is, but I don't think the M engineers had any choice in the matter. They would have been pushed in one direction through the greater powers at be. I personally LOVE turbo cars <----- but what both Chris and BB says about the 'pure' aspect of the NA lump rings true to me. I'm...

Slight random question - does anyone have any issues in their custom kits retaining their names? By that, say I pick CUSTOM4 and equip it with a Galil and a Makrov etc, then rename that custom kit to Galil + Makrov - it stays there for the remainder of the time I'm in COD BO. But when I exit the...

See, now that's where I disagree. I slot far more comfortably into the COD role of 'what will be, will be' rather than trying to engage my brain and outsmart players like I do in other FPSs. It's easy for me to get the adrenaline flowing and focusing hard on trying to do well for both me and the...

Any tips or hints guys to help me convince myself to like playing this online? Just gone on Nuketown on a German server for the first time, got Rank 2 and not far off 3 so far - lol. Despite our team winning and me ending with a positive score, I just felt like I was playing Soldier of Fortune...

Thanks Tigger. I gave the lock a good greasing and so far, so good. Before that, actually squeezing the outer 'lip' of the cap saw a lot of water drip out of the leading edge. I did this for a few minutes until the water stopped leaking out and then left it on the radiator for a few hours...

Can it be done easily? Mine was frozen solid this morning - annoyingly at the petrol pump waiting to fill up. :( It's defrosted now and came off no problem. However shaking the petrol cap results in a lot of sloshing water within the cap itself. Can I take it apart to dry it properly? Cheers, D.

Get on it AK - I really did like the story to it. It doesn't bring anything new to the genre, but some of the set pieces are really well put together. Going strafing down a river in a patrol boat with the Rolling Stones playing in the background is just one bit that springs to mind. :) D.
