    Yep :cool: https://www.origin.com/en-gb/store/buy/battlefield-1942-ANW.html D.

    He'd get 20 for dissing Imbruglia though... ;) WB - epic motors there! D.

    Battlefield 4

    Good times on that. El Alamein is probably my favourite BF map of all time, along with Shuhia Taiba on 2142. Did you ever try out Desert Combat too? Not sure if you're aware, but if you have an Origin account with EA, you can download the original Battlefield 1942, free of charge. I haven't...

    Battlefield 4

    I get the occasional texture issue on that map on the PC too. Roofs and walls appearing and disappearing in rapid succession - lol. D.

    Battlefield 4

    Flying in low over the ground on El Alamein? ;) The neat part about that is if you blitzed past, you'd only get a few additional rounds of ammo. You either had to crawl by like a sitting duck to fully rearm or physically land. It worked. D.

    Battlefield 4

    Sorry - I should have said that on the older BF games, it wasn't just your base that you could only resupply from from, but there were several caches of ammo spread across the map. Although a weapons cache may only be 400-500 metres away, it forces you to disengage and resupply. The worst...

    Battlefield 4

    No reflection on your skill m8 - but that clip just highlights the mistake EA/DICE made in having unlimited ammo on vehicles. For over three minutes, you're raping and pillaging pretty much all before you. You could argue that the lack of skill on the opposition hasn't been able to bring you...

    Battlefield 4

    It's Commander Mode - which is used in a lot of online game types. You need to be Rank 10 or higher in order to apply for the Commander's position though. D.

    Battlefield 4

    FLOL - how the hell do you play Commander Mode with a pad?! :cool: Some good videos there. Must admit I use that anti-aircraft ploy a lot when they fly ultra-low and fire an RPG at point blank range. I do that from tanks too. D.

    [PC] Diablo 3

    Nope. Well, we got nowhere near that by the end anyway. I think we finished the game at around lvl 26 each. Never even came across one of the set pieces of equipment - which are coloured green, from what I believe? In fact, we only got a few orange ones, tbh. D.

    [PC] Diablo 3

    One of the few games that my girlfriend would actually play - lol. We completed it in co-op just on Normal difficulty, but have actually thought about restarting it with different character classes on a harder difficulty. A good game - definitely suits the console platform in co-op too. D.

    Win7 & ALC898 popping/crackling

    Tbf, I'd pretty much have attempted the reformat as one of the first fixes :) I did have this on my old Soundblaster X-Fi card running on the PCI bus. I changed the PCI latency which helped a lot, but the problem went away completely when I switched to the onboard Realtek card. My newer...

    Iirc, on the deploy screen, there's an option for Team Setup. In there you can join or create a squad. D.

    Battlefield 4

    Anyone has the moonwalking tank yet? On a slight slope - and sometimes even a flat surface - the tank will slide in one direction. Weird when it happens - often enough where you have to compensate on long range shots. D.

    Battlefield 4

    I still can't get my head around the tank vs tank hit boxes. Last night I had a small round (literally just three a side) on the map with the large dish. With so few players, it ended up being a vehicle on vehicle round and I was doing really well (too well in fact at times) with the Chinese...

    Battlefield 4

    Funny you should mention that. I had another quick dabble on the Test Range last night and while in air with any of the choppers, the surface of the island itself was a solid, one tone beach colour - no texture at all. I had to come into a very low hover, before I started seeing surface textures...

    Battlefield 4

    I tried that, but it didn't work for me. However, increasing some graphics options to Ultra did? Lol. D.

    Lol - what have they broke now? I installed the latest nVidia ones last night, enabled SLi and set the Quadro to dedicated Physx. Seems ok...... so far. D.

    ^^^ - short of having absolutely no other alternative option - I would never game online via wireless. It's just pure horse. D.

    Battlefield 4

    I like the idea of having an LMG fitted to the tank, in order to sort out the infantry..... Then again, I could go for the HMG and really make them keep their heads down. Oh, wait........ Why do you fail at such obvious things, DICE?? ;) D.

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Wouldn't a current-gen i7 be better as a CPU if you're heavily involved with non-realtime rendering, etc? Or have the recent i5's come on leaps and bounds that has negated the i7's additional abilities? Just a thought? :) D.

    Battlefield 4

    Still using the old established BF favourite of the UMP-45. A bit pants at range, but epic in the mid-to-short distances. Unlocked the heavy barrel the other night. I actually applaud DICE for making you choose between gun additions, dependant on how you prefer them to behave. The heavy barrel...

    X-Com: Enemy Within

    Sorry m8 - the majority of spare time I've had has been with the love/hate relationship that I have with BF4 :) It's definitely on my list to retry and tbh, they've got so many things right with the latest incarnation of XCOM - that there's no way they won't develop it more. I've even...

    Battlefield 4

    I'm not too sure on that though. Who really picked the engineer or anti-tank role in the original BF1942 or BF2? We know that those classes have always been useful - in fact the engineer class was my de-facto choice on BF2142. But the vast majority of players tend to go for the assault and...

    Newbie alert! NW member

    Welcome! Without trying to sound like a gobshite(!) - do you actually mean a Mk1 or a Mk2, Phase 1? Something that looks a Clio 16v/Williams or more like a 172? Good to see another NW member on here anyway :) D.

    Battlefield 4

    Nudging Level 30 now - I think the below are my main BF4 pros and cons Pros Vast majority of the maps are well designed and enjoyable, perhaps with the exception of Flood Control. Graphics are good - certainly given the scale of units/buildings on-screen at anyone time. Destructible scenery is...

    Tyre blow out on dyno.

    Could have been a whole lot worse if the fastenings didn't do their job! D.
