Why is this is SF chatter?

You know you are a hardcore BF2 gamer when... My brother racked up about 300 hours in the last three months, he plays it too much.

"300 hours in the last three months"

*cough*301 hours since December 24, 2005, 3:53 pm*cough*

:p

You know you're a hardcore BF2 player when you leave to have dinner, and when you come back you've got the gold medal with 48 kills and 2 deaths

...sit down at a computer and your hands automatically find the "WASD" hand position.

...you see a beautiful veiw and ask yourself, "Why don't I just take a screenshot?"

...are going to the bathroom after finishing a round, and, trying to compensate for lag, you run into the doorframe.

I've actually been writing this for a "you know you play too much BF2 when....." thread, but this one is close enough. If you can't see some of yourself in here then you simply haven't been playing nearly enough!



You often try to navigate web pages using the W S A D keys.

You're driving down the freeway and you suddenly call out to your passenger...."Enemy boat spotted!"

You automatically find yourself reaching for your trusty PKM every time someone cuts you off in traffic.

You’ve signed more than 3 checks using your BF2 nick.

You notice that it’s 5:39 AM and your first thought is “Holy shit!!! It's been 48 hours since I slept and I've been gaming for 46 of that. I've REALLY gotta reboot my machine before changing servers."

Your next-door neighbor often makes comments like “Wow! It sounded like you were totally kicking some ass at about 4:30 this morning!” (It happened....and I live in a house not an apartment!!)

Every time you call Domino’s the guy says "Do you freakin' SWEAR that you're gonna answer the door this time? Cause we KNOW you're in there!"  Yeah....I've been known to chose points over pizza.  If only I could figure out a way to have both....

For the first time in your life, after seeing YOUR NAME alongside that incredibly beautiful Gold Star in the score box, you FINALLY begin to understand the concept of self worth. You immediately call your parents to tell them that after giving the field of Engineering much consideration, that you have chosen to dedicate your life to Medicine in order that you might be able to prolong lives and reduce the amount of time spent suffering by others. Your mother wept, your father stumbled for words fit to say at such a momentous occasion, and you found your self worth rising yet another notch. Little did they know......

Your boss called you to see if it would be possible to schedule a convenient time in which you "might be able to drag your sorry ass in to work!!!”  You told him you would get back to him on that...after which he said some very interesting things but you can't remember exactly what. You wrote a post it note to call him back at the end of next month in order to follow up on his comments.

Your dog left you for some dude with a Frisbee.....

3 days later you noticed that your girlfriend must have tagged along!

Your friends came by to hold an intervention but you didn't really get the point 'cause you couldn't hear them over all of the gunfire and profanity.

You check the BF2S forum more regularly than you check your mail.

You stub your toe and immediately scream out "I NEED A MEDIC HERE!!!"

One day while your internet connection was down you closed your eyes and came to the realization that all of the above were undeniably true. You even thought about joining a support group for hopeless BF2 addicts, but after some reflection, you decided those guys were all pussies and instead clicked the one icon on your desktop that you can hit every time......(even with your eyes closed).

It's 1am and even though you have to be to work in 5 hours you would rather talk about BF2 than sleep.  On further reflection you ask yourself, "WTF am I doing here talking about the game when I could be playing it!  Awww, fuck it. To hell with sleep....

"What are your orders, Sir?"

A good sign you`re not a hardcore gamer, you would simply not bother taking the time to write this way to long post.

But it was good though ;-)

... when you start considering that sitting up in the church tower next to your appartement would be an ideal place for sniping.

...when you start walking around corners cautiously because you can never be sure where those bastards are waiting for you

...when you are about to flatten yourself to the floor when some stupid kiddies behind you throw fireworks and you start thinking "Grenade!" immediately and wonder wtf your G3 is.

I had a crazy dream the other day about BF2 and work.  I work on a crew that installs all of the underground electrical that connects all the houses and transformers in a neighborhood together. 

In my dream we were a combat wire crew and it was completely nuts.  Hiding under the trucks during artillery strikes, popping off rounds at the enemy while also trying to get the work done.  We had two of our crew on the rooftops with sniper rifles and a few others delivering suppressing fire.  We would hear PKM's start up and we'd have a minute or so to drag another peice of wire into the trench.  Everybody on the crew was fighting about who got to be in the trench (which is usually never the case...) 

Boy was I glad to see my boss rolling up in a tank...
