I have more helicopter roadkills then I have land vehicle roadkills. :lol:

 

 

I have 12 roadkills for the Blackhawk right now. I aim to increase that as much as I can. I'll be playing Isla Innocentes as much as I can to get them.

Just call me up if you need an engineer...I want to help as much as possible Kc :thumbup:

Haha, thats quite impressive.

Anytime i tried to get a Blackhawk roadkill, someone would turn up with an Rpg and spoil my attempt. Ended up using the UAV to get one for the acheivement and haven't really bothered since. It seemed everytime i'd sneak behind enemy lines with the UAV, i'd line someone up and just before i'd run them down, their squadmate would spawn next to them with a clear shot at shooting me down.

 

M1 Garand has overtaken the G3 as my most used weapon. It's still bugged though which is damn annoying.

One thing that I found strange in Hardcore was that I could spot people and got spot assist points but no orange arrows were appearing above them.

Thats what makes it hardcore. If spotting was in hardcore that would make sniping very easy, as with most sniper rifles, it's a one shot kill anywhere.

How do you get the veteran status and the M1 Garand?

You have to register any previous Battlefield games (BF2, Bad Company 1 etc) to your EA account i think. Each previous game counts as 1 veteran status. This could be partly wrong as i don't remember doing it with my account at all.

The point was that it seemed to do nothing but I was still getting points for it. Maybe it showed people on the map when you press start.

[PoorLepRecon]

What's everyones veteran status. Mine's 7. :twss:

 

 

 

 

To Valeyard, they didn't disable the spotting feature, they just disabled they red arrows. That's why you can spot people but not see the arrow. It's free points really.

Hey guys, quick question here.

 

So sometimes when some one kills me, in the information bar, usually the weapon will be gold and have SA after the weapons name: Ex. MG3 SA.

 

What is this?

[PoorLepRecon]

It's the SPECACT DLC weapons. For you Halo you'll have to get the Dr. Pepper codes. There was a way to get them for free but they fixed it so you have to buy Dr. Pepper now.

And I have no problem with that.

 

<3 Dr.Pepper.

Thanks Kc.

You can still see them on the map though. When you press start. That one. Or at least I believe you can... haven't played in a long time.

Oh my...had a amazing game. Playing conquest on Panama Canal. It was a smaller team game (7 on 7) but it was loads of fun. For the first half of the game we had control of 3 flags. Slowly they got B back, then eventually C. At one point the score was 43 to 22. I figured we had lost, but we made a MASSIVE come back. I got at least 15 kills with in a 5 minuet period. And somehow...we won. I went 25-13 with the M416. It is now my favorite gun for the assault class :thumbup:

Why do you always decline my Friend Request, Kc? It's getting annyoing now -.-

[Nadril]

Lost 1-2 against EpochWastlandGaming (TWL).

 

Didn't have our good players on so we had me, another good one and 2 guys who are decent but not main players. Sucks 'cuz we could have won easily.

 

Well that and I'm getting pissed off at the "hey lets all go 4 medic / 3 medic + 1 assault and then infinity revive people!" mantra. Makes me want to get good at 8v8 conquest so I don't have to deal with that bull.

[PoorLepRecon]

What's wrong with their medic strategy? It seems to work well to me.

[Nadril]

It works but it works too well to the point that the only thing to really do is all go medics yourself. It just turns squad rush into something really cheesy.

 

I don't have an issue with it in a PUB because they can't organize it right. In a match though it really needs to be limited to 1-2 medics per team only.

[Range_This11]

Finally I get some time to play with summer and all and my disc goes unreadable. Just my luck.

[InkofDeath]

Leagues should limit it to 1 medic per 4 players.

 

DICE should put a limit on how many times a player can be revived, like maybe twice - and each time could add to the respawn timer.

[Chewylobster]

This is a great game but Multiplayer is really frustrating for me. The starting levels are a pain with all the high leveled players owning you. It's fun at least so i'll keep playing although the game length is way too long for a short gaming session.

And I don't think you'd want to wait about 35+ seconds to respawn because your idiot medic didn't keep an eye open when reviving you. Maybe apply the extra time if you survive for at least 10 seconds after being revived?

Agreed man.

 

I'm gunna try and get into more 8v8's though; I know my team really wants me to play it.

I feel as though something that could fix all of this is just nerf the recharge time of the defibrillator. I think it takes just 3 seconds for them to recharge? Maybe put it to 10 seconds. This would solve medics becoming a one man army, and not have to add regulations to a class. Just my thoughts.

Well I feel like if one medic can get up his entire team it's fine, he earned it. It makes it so you just need to focus the medic in a battle. I don't think extra recharge time would stop these teams of 4 medics.

I guess that is true and did not read what you was trying to explain. Please excuse me. However, I could see a lot of backlash with a patch you want to happen. I'm not saying it's a bad, idea. It's just that I find that BC2 offers a lot of freedom in how we fight. If you was to restrict it, it just don't sound or feel right. Again just my thoughts.
