If you put your PC to sleep mode it wont reset the timer. Plus you can start your PC a lot faster.

Used sleep mode for over a year, no BSOD here, no noticeable slowdown on the PC so don't really see the big fuzz with this.

It's probably been discussed before, but it is possible to get the "Exemplary Weapon Service" insignia without the Garand?
I have bronze for all weapons except the Garand (it doesn't track).

Do the gadget weapons count as weapons?

Also when I look at my stats online it shows that I don't have the Type88 sniper pin even though it shows it in my in game stats.

I have the same problem.  I have the bronze star in EVERYTHING so when the M1 is fixed i'll get 2 patches for it.  Also I now have every pin and patch I can get in the game excluding the M1 bug.

Its so hard to roadkill people btw.

I got a road kill when I wasn't even on the quad bike anymore Was playing panama canal and I saw a guy shooting me just as I came out of the US main, so I thought 'fuck it' put my foot down and drove towards him, unfortunately he shot me but my quad bike carried on running him over and I got the kill

Is there actually any difference in change of the audio if you set it to high (from low) in your settings.ini file ? (with war tapes on obv) or is there no point in change ? 'cause I tested it, and I'm not sure about fps decrease and it really doesn't sound any different.

you know what was funny? If you idled long enough in the singleplayer campaign without pausing, the enemy AI would conk out and no one would attack you except scripted sequences. Then you could feel liek you stopped time and go around knifing everyone.

They still need to fix the damn M1 Garand though Hopefully that's one of the 'weapon tweaks'.

Hey the M93-R isn't that bad. I just tried it out today along with the USAS-12 and magnum ammo. Generally I'd just 3-4 shot the first person that put the other 2 shots and the M93-R into the 2nd person.

Love how the M93-R is such a great finish-offer.

It was buffed in the last patch. Before that it was terribad.
