Unlucky man. As long as your GT isn't along the lines of XxSN1P3xG0DxX or something else like that you'll be fine with me lol. M249 is a beast of a gun. Went 29-5 with it earlier, got a whole bunch of kills from daft medics not killing me before they revived their friends so i killed them both. Also wiped out near enough a whole squad after they decided to spawn on some guy in an enclosed space. T'was good.

Played brilliant with the M1 all today. Had a string of 3 or 4 games with K/Ds of like 28/2, 38/10 and some other pretty good ones, all with the M1/MP443-Grach/C4/Grenades on Conquest. It's pretty easy to do across map shots as the iron sights are awesome. Feels good getting a headshot kill from across the map or outgunning Medics with M60's with a semi-automatic gun from the second world war. :thumbup:

I've thought about this before, i mean, swear words are the same as every other kind of word but we associate them as being bad and whatever but it's why we think calling someone a [bleep] is a lot more offensive than calling someone a twit. Both are offensive but obviously the censored one is more so. There's probably some historical reason for it thats stuck with it through the ages. Who knows?

Heard about this earlier. It's a [cabbage] day for music. RIP Ronnie James Dio.

Been using the weapons that can be used with all the kits, the G3, M14, M1 Garand and the Thomson Sub-Machinegun. The G3 is definately my favourite, with decent damage balanced by having a relatively small magazine. The M1 Garand (the WWII rifle) is probably my second. It's quite close in style to the M14 but i find the iron sights on the Garand a hell of a lot clearer to use. The M14 and the Thomson i'm not all too fussed about. However i think the Thomson and Garand are still bugged when it comes to tracking your kills which i'd hoped would've been fixed with the patch last week.

I'm sure the song "Higher ground" by Stevie Wonder has lyrics close to what you can remember. I'll go find a youtube link. EDIT: Not an exact match but hey.

I live just outside a town in west-central Scotland, roughly around 20-30 minutes from Glasgow and a bit more to get to Edinburgh so it's pretty handy being within roughly an hours drive of the two main cities. The area i stay in has a few shops, post office/butchers/pub and a primary school pretty close by but the main town centre is about a half hour walk which has a good shopping centre, pubs/clubs and all the other kinds of stuff you normally find in a town centre. I enjoy it here but i reckon i'm going to either move to Glasgow after i'm done with Uni or stay in Edinburgh, where i stay when Uni is in as Edinburgh is a brilliant city.

This thread made me lol. I'd say without a doubt, the phone is my property. I use it when i need to contact friends/family to organisze things and can be contacted if something happens. I don't go around with it glued to my ear, i only use it when i have to. It's a very convenient piece of kit to have and i don't really see any reason why someone should be without one this day in age, as the benefits far outweigh the cons.

The thing i was worried about the most when we first got our dog was teaching it to go to the toilet outside. My mum got a bunch of dog training books from the library with tips and stuff and it ended being quite easy in the end. Also, pick up after your dog if it craps when you're out walking or whatever.

Tories haven't even been in power a week yet and thats one Scottish family unemployed and homeless... :smile: At least Gordon Brown left No.10 with some dignity.

The machine gun on the UAV is activated when you use Alt.Vehicle Weapon for the vehicle specialization.

If you crouch when firing, it eliminates 50% of the recoil which makes it noticably easier to hit. I think this is G3 specific however i'm sure most guns have reduced recoil when firing from crouched but i don't know if it's as much as 50%. My favourite gun at the minute anyway. Moving onto the M1 Garand and the M14 now for a while.

Heard about that today, sounds pretty good. Playing earlier with a couple of friends and couldn't get a kill to save myself. Got a ton of assists and got my arse handed to me by folk using the M416. Got some sweet kills with the RPG on helicopters using the tracer pistol.

Hmm, i didn't get an update for it today (yesterday technically) either but folks were complaining about the improved Tracer gun on the Ea forums, i don't know. The G3 has overtook the XM8 assault rifle as my most used gun. Trying to start using the M14 a bit more now as well after watching some gameplay vids on youtube.

David Blaine's crappy endurance stunts seem pretty tame compared to this guy. We should put him in a plexiglass box suspended above the river Thames and see how long he lasts.

Kids standing outside newsagents and off-licenses asking you to go in and buy them booze/cigarettes.

Just one of the many fine examples of logic we have regarding politics on OT. Haha. Thats not the only reason i dislike the Tories however. As Danqaz said, the PM should have the confidence of the public to do whats most beneficial for the public. I feel if the Conservatives are putting forward various policies that would benefit the rich more than normal folks, then a large number of the population (particularly up north) won't trust him. Him being a well-off, smug looking [bleep] is beside the point. :razz:

I'm not keen on the Tories at all. David Cameron has a face you wouldn't tire of punching.

Thats awesome. Wish you the best. Also, are the patches supposed to be taking place tomorrow, at least that is what I heard from someone today. Yeah, supposed to go into place on the 11th of May. Hopefully see some variety in Medic's choice of weapon now that the M60 is getting toned down.

Those were the two books we had a choice between to do a critical essay on back in high school. Everyone picked The Great Gatsby as the teacher had the film version she said she'd show us to help us understand it. :smile:

I've been drinking less sodas and fizzy drinks in favour of water/milk recently. Not a big coffee/tea fan at all. As for fizzy drinks, can't really go wrong with a bottle of Irn Bru or Dr Pepper.

In Scotland, it is illegal to be drunk and in possession of a cow.

Jagermeister is one of the more popular drinks i have trouble drinking, i don't mind it if im already drunk but drinking it with cola, especially if it's strong, turns my stomach. Never been a massive fan of Jagerbombs either. Whisky is something i'd like to get into a bit more as my dad and uncles all know their stuff when it comes to all the different types, tastes, ages and whatever. I got a bottle of Johnnie Walker 18 Year Old Gold Label from one of my uncles when i turned 18. If i drank it now i'd feel as if i'd be wasting it as i wouldn't really appreciate the different aspects of drinking a good whisky. Had a few glasses of some of my uncle's Drambuie and Whyte & Mackay malts neat at Christmas time, which were pretty good.

Trying out the shotguns now that i've unlocked everything. I must say, the Saiga is awesome with the slugs and magnum ammo. Gave the USAS-12 a quick shot as well, seems to be pretty good although the Saiga comes with more ammunition i think. I dislike the Neostead, find it really hard to use. Gonna go and give the rest a shot later but the Saiga is a favourite at the minute. Also getting better at hitting moving Blackhawks with the Carl G/Rpg. :thumbup:

When you're dating someone, you imagine yourselves growing old together. When you're married to someone, you wonder who will die first. Though i walk through the valley in the shadow of death, i shall fear no evil, for i am the meanest [bleep] in the whole [bleep]ing valley.
