Hmm, seems like this patch hasn't been great to me. My hit reg has become abysmal even with iron sights, and it feels more laggy.

Also, what's the falcon?

It's some crazy new 3d controller device with force-feedback, designed to give us all sprained wrists and RSI years earlier than conventional controllers. See here

Also, I think SF will gradually get more players back, it's just that the folk who like variety are trying out the AF/EF maps.

Lol! 200$ for a plastic piece of shit attached into a (presumably) bad quality motion sensor with a FF engine and with some leds in it to make it look "next gen gaming device omfg". I pity the foo who actually pays 200$ money for that. And its most likely gonna make you worse at FPS

Grrrrrr, can't make it past 1 and a half rounds without a CTD.

Its supposed to be like that so you don't spend too much time playing this game like F1restarter, Huellia and the like.

Today I re-installed everything on my new pc to check this new patch.
Clean installation --> patch 1.41 --> patch 1.5

But it disconnects me everytime I try to join a server. As soon as I log in, it kicks me out with this message:
RESTRICTION: Service communication failure: PnkBstrA.exe

I've tried the manual punkbuster update suggested here: http://www.punkbuster.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php but the file seems to be corrupt.
I have Vista 64.

Make sure your firewall isn't blocking PnkBstrA.exe.

maybe the 1.51 patch will include SF

Sadly, no.
Bazajaytee said that SF has to be run as a separate mod, thus no combined map rotation.
The reason being that it uses a different renderer.

Meh.

its like the 2nd most popular sf map. devils perch, iron gator and mass destruction are all better maps anyway

yeah everyone is trying out the new maps its usually like 80-100 servers people will be back when they get bored

Firewall is disabled.

I am having trouble connecting to servers now, when before 1.5 I didnt. I will connect and then get DC right away, then i wont be able to join the server again as it says check internet connection bla bla bla. On the odd occasion i have connected, it plays one round then i will DC me, ive only managed a few consecutive rounds.

Any ideas?

Is it me, or the support kit is not effected by the aim delay?

Ive noticed that the LMG's aren't affected by the prone deviation as much as other guns. Prone + PKM = dead enemy. It's great

Infantry on Great Wall (the only map I can stand IO on...) is awesome, Benelli or pump shotgun VS pronespammers = lol.
