Disagree, the way I play recon it's quite useful to my squad.  Tossing out motion mines to help them identify closer targets while I pick off the long range ones.  Run n gun sniper is fun.
/agree.

I rarely snipe as recon, I tend to prefer it on closed in maps like White Pass etc and use the shotty+motion mines and defend a flag tenaciously.

If I am sniping, I'll hang back and only take shots I know I'm going to get a headshot on, and keep mobile. I prefer to let people spawn on me if I'm behind enemy lines to take a flag or two, the go back to CQC.

VIP Mode Pack 6 is Panama Canal Squad Deatmatch and Laguna Alta Squad Rush.  It will be out either next Wednesday, or the week after (Aug 18th or 25th).

You read it here first! (Unless you read it somewhere else, or figured it out for yourself... )

Well, if you must know, take this list of maps included in the last PC patch, eliminate the ones released as Mode Pack 3, 4, and 5, and what you have left is Mode Pack 6.

For the dates, review the release dates for the preceeding Mode Packs:

Map Pack 1: March 2 (game released in US)
Map Pack 2: March 30
Map Pack 3: June 9
Map Pack 4: July 7
Map Pack 5: July 28

They like Wednesdays, and lately, they have been 3 or 4 weeks apart.  There you have it.

You acted like you knew this for sure, like there was a source.

It's quite possible that you're correct, but you should still add in a little bit that says it's pure speculation on your part

I'll admit the release date is just a guess, but I'm pretty confident about the maps.

How about this, if I am right, you Kharma me.  If I'm wrong, I'll Kharma you?

New Battlefield Blog Post:  Community Wednesday #8

Are new maps coming for BFBC2 in the future?

Vietnam will bring more maps to BC2. Map Pack 6 is due for release next week. There will be more information on the maps coming for Vietnam the closer we get to a release date.
So, I guess Map Pack 6 is the 18th, then...

Will pack #6 be the last one to 'recycle' the current maps with new game modes?

twitter.com/OfficialBFBC2:  "Map Pack 6 for Bad Company 2 is out! Enjoy Squad Deathmatch on Panama Canal and Squad Rush on Laguna Presa."

For you server admins:

Panama Canal Squad Deathmatch = mp_001sdm
Laguna Presa Squad Rush =  mp_009sr

I actually DO play Squad Deathmatch, and am interested to see what section of Panama Canal will be used for this.

My server won't be updated until some time tonight, i'd guess.  Need an update from the Procon Admin tool.

** Edit:  looks like I named the wrong "Laguna" in my original post about this map pack, FTL.

From PlanetBattlefield.com:  Bad Company 2 R21 Server Rolling Out

Monday, 30 August, 2010 at 14:14 PST

A new Battlefield: Bad Company 2 server build (R21) has been rolling out since last Friday. This update does not apply to clients. If you own a server, contact your server provider to see if your server has been updated.

    Since Friday evening, servers are gradually being upgraded to R21.

    It was developed in response to some RSPs reporting that players would spam in the text chat, and that would cause stuttering for other players.

        * There is a spam filter for text-chat: if someone sends 5 messages in 10 seconds, that player is muted for 60 seconds
        * Text chat can be muted across the entire server
        * Individual players can be promoted to “admin” (cannot be muted, spam filter does not apply) and “muted” (never allowed to text chat)
        * All settings configurable via remote admin interface
        * New textfile on-disk: textchatmoderationlist.txt [list of which players are admin & muted]
        * Updated docs; available here
Do you still feel loved?

I like this game more than bf2 in some ways. No jets mostly makes it awesome. Less GL power and destructible environments are great too.

Biggest problem with this game is there is about 6 servers that i can play on with reasonable reg.

So i'm constantly hoping they're sufficiently populated and now i'm finding that i'm getting kicked from my favourite of those because the clan finds my aim 'unnatural'

It's less than cod and bf2 what's so funny? Is it because you always get killed by it when camping?
