Sound locks up, system freezes, have to reboot.

If by whiners you mean those of us tired of the unstable servers, Crash to Desktops, and the need to reboot to exit the game, fix the scroll wheel, then yes, I hope they come up with a patch soon.=MI5=CHRISTIAN wrote:

If you're a smart commander, you're watching your squad leaders, and if you see he is on foot and not anywhere near a car, it's great to be able to help him out. We've all spawned somewhere far away from the battle, and there were no vehicles, and we spent eons walking towards the battle . . .

After this week I know the nurses in the ER at Womack Army Medical Center by name. They instantly recognize me on sight as "the young lady with the resting pulse rate of 160". So here's the deal, I've got a diagnosis of acute Bronchitis, and I'm on anti-biotics for Mycoplasmal Pneumonia. They took 2 X-Rays during the 20 hours I spent in the ER on Wednesday and Thursday, and couldn't find "anything majorly exciting", but they know my history of Pneumonia so they're taking extra precaution. For now I'm on bed rest and if it weren't for Codeine, my chest and stomach would cause me too much pain to move. So lucky me, no BF2 for a while, because I'm sure the instant someone snuck up on me and killed me I'd gasp out of surprise, start coughing/choking, and then die from lack of oxygen. Oh yeah, and I still despise needles... and IV's... lying there and watching it fall slowly one small tear drop full at a time... drip... drip... drip...
The problem here, is that the "rules" are changing electronically, and do not reflect those agreed to at install time. I purchased a game that was sold for its online play benefits including ranking. Should the "rules" interfere with the benefits as advertised, this present a bit of a legal problem.IndianScout wrote:

Two guys, I fire my burst, as I release my trigger from the burst, the buddy fires his burst. Esentially, between us, we have a continuous stream of rounds headed into an area, yet maintain the accuracy that comes from a cool barrel and reduced extended recoil.usmarine2005 wrote:
Best thing in the world, for distance supression, is to find a friend and use "talking guns," now that will get you some kills and points.
For those of you who don't know what talking guns are, I am sorry i can't explain it, but maybe someone has a sound clip.
The prey's friends dont hear your knife slice through him. They only hear his pathetic calls for MEDIC!EstebanRey wrote:
The argument is that if all your kills are knife kills and every enemy you meet can't shoot you, it is easier to get the knife badges. It such a crap badge anyway because to get it normally you have to knife people when you have lots of ammo and guns at your disposal so I don't see how it represents an impreesive feat in RL. You would never knife anyone unless you were completely out of all your ammo which would be extremely rare.
Not everyone plays for rank. If it is unranked, statpadders will have no interest in it.The_Mob_Returns wrote:
Interesting idea although if it isnt ranked then I dont see even 100 people playing it at a time.
I honestly hadnt seen any padding until the other night.imdead wrote:
the basic knife I thought would be hard but it really isn't through "fair play". I did it on Karkand. I don't know what the beef is about Karkand and everyone calling it the " statpadders dream". Truthfully I've never seen the statpadders on any map except one and it was Wake Island when they were waiting for a plane. I play on full 64 maps, except once when they did a server disconnect and I waited . Karkand is fast moving, and I believe the fun first flag capture. You have your asshats, but you have them in every episode, just move on from it. I personally don't have time to worry about other peoples actions other than my own to worry about.

To add one, you make a very good point. Armor is not designed to work alone. While there are exceptions, they are most often part of a mechanized division with support infantry. A few nights ago, I had an opportunity to lead a great squad (joeindahouse, tiadragemini, metti1982, brutus7284, and misc others I don't remember) in Karkand.Rick_Biessman wrote:
I know, to jump out and disarm is dangerous or will make you lose your precious whoring machine, since there are always stupid team mates who drive alone in enemy territory to cap a flag without inf support (the enemy ambush works in 80% or more, and the tank is lost for nothing)
Historically, mines have not been an offensive weapon, but defensive in nature. The use of anti-personel mines are used to protect resources or to deny opposing forces the use of real estate. Anti-vehicle mines also are used to prevent access to intrastate transportation routes, thus limiting the flow of offensive vehicles (tanks, apcs, trucks) and the relocation of supplies.QuackinChicken wrote:
This is true however you have to keep a few things in mind. What about the friendly guys who mine my road so i can no longer leave the base with anytype of vehicle? Must I have to beg them over ingame chat to clear their mines from the road? Mines have been and always will be a bad idea. They are unpractical......BeforeGod wrote:
This is good news, it makes engineers a bit more important. I've always thought you should get a teamwork point for every enemy mine defused.
lets say you get close enough to a tank to lay mines, you throw em down behind the track. Even then the tank must run directly over the mine with his tread. In the few instances I have come close to doing this the tank has
1) missed the mine or...
2) backs up over my mine killing us both and giving me a -2 for teamwork
Also when I am driving I can't see the x's till I am right ontop of them giving me little time to brake. I feel that mines should be taken out of the game, and they should give the engineer something more effectivve against vehicles.

You guys have covered everything in this post except the meaning of life. Which we all know is BF2.
I couldn't agree with you more, that yes, the big 4 (cbs, nbc, abc, and cnn) censor their stories. FOX tends to tilt center to right (at times, maybe too far right). As for major east coast (I have no information on west coast) news papers, NYT, AJC, Washington Post publish articles with a definite slant.stryyker wrote:

heres my 2 cents.
America censors their media, thats a known fact, blow me
that DOES NOT mean we dont learn about other nations from their POV. my history teacher (world history) is English, and it was nice to see a not so one sided view of everything.

The US came into the war extremely late... why? because they were attacked.
Have you ever heard of a term called isolationism?
It's another word for not caring about what's going on in the world, just in your own country.
Thats exactly what the United States believed in, until THEY GOT ATTACKED.
So what if they sent guns to the UK... that wasnt the biggest need at the time!.
By the end of the war, there was 1 million Canadians involved in the war.. and what was Canada's population at the time? 10 million. Why is it that a world super power would just sit and wait for things to progress as one of the world's most vicous dictators attacked eastern europe? Who knows.
So before you go posting SHIT like that.... JUST DON'T.

Well, I was switched today as a squad member. So maybe its squad leaders?oberst_enzian wrote:
this doesn't happen if you're a squad leader, or (I think) a squad member. so, it's just more incentive for team play and not going lone wolf, as lone wolves are always the ones autobalance picks to switch.72Wolf- wrote:
I don't, but am tired of autobalance switching me half way through the game to the losing team after I've kicked tail in the first half.
Maybe I'm strange, but I like Karkand. No aircraft. Armor is at a disadvantage in the tight streets.stryyker wrote:
that fucking hates Strike at Karkand? no other time in the game does the period of war revert back to the Revolutionary war of the US, standing 5 fucking feet from eachother firing all your shit in lifted hopes of hitting somewhere close to anything. i usually dont complain about spawnrape, but it gets fucking bad there. a goddamn abrams poking its dick into the MEC hotel spawn at mowing you down before you can even move. and there are always the 5 snipers who dont do shit, get 3 kills, and sit there until they are the last ones and dont even bother to cap a point ever. ever.

No no, sometimes you need to "test" the artillery. You know, to make sure all 3 guns are firing.FromTheAshes wrote:
