PSN: Crazy_3y3s_ (exactly)
I'll try to add you as well when I get home (Ajax35). One problem that KT and I have had recently is squadding up together and having nobody else on our squad. We do our best, but if we both die we have to respawn back at our base, which is a huge PITA on some maps, like the Isla Innocentes. Having a full squad would be great since it makes it easier to respawn and since you have more guys to watch your back.

Yep, I hear ya, I am generally recon and find nice little niches to hide in, so I make a good spawn for teammates. I can roll another class if needed. I suck at flying helicopters (but can fly the UAV well), I need to look up some instructions on helo flying.
 
Ivan...sorry about yesterday....had to give my son a bath...then my wife (love her to death) had me on lock down for the night watching her shows (Vampire Diaries, Greys, Private Practice) Thursdays are her night.I will be on tonight for a looong time...hope my Brother inlaw is too....KT you and i along with my bro will make a sick squad.BTW Valipraso (or whatever the heck it's called) the island board...tough as nails IMO. Port Valdez is my best map so far.Anyway hope we can hook up and play a ton tonight. Nice to have good folks to kill with LOL.
Sorry I missed you last night. KT and I got your invites, but we were already squadded up with mrcreamjeans and one of KT's friends. I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm on today.
 
Got a 2nd 10k award last night for 10 silvers. About 3k from the Gol sniper and hope to get that tonight.

Any FBG's interested in finding an unpopulated server and, I don't know, work on some pins? :lol:

That nemesis and killing nemesis one would be cake to do so. You know, knock out a few of the harder ones. . . :goodposting:

I'm in now for the first time: Senor SchmutzigWhere's the list of player names? Is it still on the first page of the thread?
Yep, so is there an underscore, or just one word? I know they do not allow spaces.
 
just saw some dude go with the G3 Assault class with C4 blowing up the charges on Rush every which way...

he doesnt even bother to arm it....just load it up with C4 & rinse & repeat

load it on the UAV(scooter/heli/etc)...drive it in...

Jihad jeeps have been around long before this. The C4 jeep to blow up a tank/UAV/radar in BF2 were awesome if you did them, infuriating if you received the love. :banned:
 
Question - with Recon, the spotter scope is used instead of the 12X, I know. How is the reticle on it for aiming? Is the bonus of it that it auto-spots so you don't have to keep pressing the button?

Spotter doesnt take away your 12X. i only used it briefly since i got Magnum fairly quick after getting the Spotter. maybe it lets you target multiple targets quicker and automatic?
 
Is anyone gonna get on tonight? I should be on for a couple of hours anyway. I was getting meager points as recon today, so did 2 rounds as a medic and topped 2500 points in medic alone without awards for 2 rounds. Back to Sucktown for points for a while now. :goodposting:

I will not be on tonight, but I feel your pain. I struggled today trying to get the med pack and the defib in somegames with Joe and Tlef. Finally got on a roll and unlocked them both.
 
Woot - just finished a 25k round - 2.5k regular round + 10k point badge and a 5k pin and a crapload of knife/melee efficiency/noob tube efficiency/etc tags. If you can get behind enemy lines (I used heli parachute in a couple times + just sneaking), you can rack up knife kills like crazy, I was getting 3 or 4 before someone realized I wasn't a friendly. I think I got my gold star in something also (knife or 40mm probably). Also ranked to 15, Magnum ammo is really nice.

I don't know what class you were playing, but I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've gotten knifed by a Recon who I knew perfectly well was there but who I thought was on my team. :)
 
going for gold stars with all the non-sniper rifles. Hard to believe how bad some of those weapons are (the first 2 engy guns are basically pea shooters). Still managing to hold the K/D ratio at 1.43.

Getting the 75 needed kills with the shot guns (I've already got 25 from getting my bronze stars) is just gonna be brutal.

 
Someone post a good deal on a desktop from Dell with a video card that can run this well for Mark Davis (Rip Van Stamp). He doesn't want to jump through hoops of adding a card himself.

 
for anyone who doesnt have the game, the EA website has it on sale for $20 for the PC (downloadable version). Yes, thats $20. The Steam people must not be too happy about that.

 
Got all weapons and gadgets in all classes unlocked. :lmao:

Got the one pin that I thought would be the hardest - The blow up 4 MCOMM stations in one round :lmao: (actually got 5 in that round :lmao: )

Only pins I need yet are the roadkill ones and the one that states get 4 kills with a sea vehicle in one round.

Does anyone know if kills with the mounted gun on the boat counts as kills with with a sea vehicle??

i sort of cheated to get the 4 MCOM stations pin. I played a game with only like 16 people in it (and might have waited for a few bombs to be defused so i could re-set them :bag: )Yes. it counts. Thats how i got mine. I got the boat on isla innocentes and waited for the defending team to run a bunch of snipers over on the hill between the attacking spawn and the island. It took me 2 tries (got sniped the first time) but i eventually killed 4 or 5 snipers. I'll have to go back and do it again at some point so i can get the stars for vehicle combat. I've got all the gold stars for all the assault guns and all but 2 engy guns. I hope they fix the M1 soon (kills dont register, so you cant get the "get all stars" awards).

Wait. You have to get a star with the M1 to get the "all bronze stars" insignia? If that's the case, it's impossible for those of us who aren't "veterans" to get this patch, right? Or am I missing something?I haven't made any effort toward this patch yet so it wouldn't be the biggest deal in the world, but that seems pretty lame regardless.

I'm thinking this pin is going to be a lot easier to get when squad rush opens up.
incorrect. The squad rush maps only have 1 or 2 sets of MCOM stations (i actually think it might only be 1 set). You'd basically have to blow up every one of them yourself.I think the way i did it was best. (under populated game on a map with 4 or 5 sets of MCOMS)

I got pretty lucky, I was on a server that was very close to full (i think each team had 1 or at the most 2 open slots) and the defending team just refused to defend the MCOMM Stations. I did it on the Port Valdez map, got 1 station on the first set (the one in the house), got both stations on the second set, got 1 station on the third set (the one in the warehouse by the helicopter spawn) and 1 more in the last set (the one in the building right on top of the hill). I can never remember which one is A or B. I was always one of the first guys rushing the next set and it seemed like the defenders were still at the previous area. After you capture both MCOMM stations there is a delay before you can rush the second area. Is the delay always the same (so many seconds after both MCOMM stations are captured) or does it vary depending on how many defenders have spawned at the next base?

:thumbup:Edit: Wait, it turns out that I actually got this pin already without realizing it. Must have been this weekend sometime. Sweet.

i think the delay depends on how many defenders are still around. I think you have to "take the base" before they open up the next set. You dont have to kill everyone, but i think you need to mostly clear it out.

 
I bought this yesterday for $19.95 at the EA store with a code I got from an EGO admin. I needed a break from LFD and it was either this or the new Alien vs. Predator. I played a little bit last night on single player after the download and it seems like fun.

Check out the ventrillo server info in here somewhere (mad cow may have put it in the first post)All of our names are in the first post I think. Mine is cooleyo.

I just got that one this morning, do Isla Innocentes rush map, use a recon loadout with 12x and Magnum Ammo, drive the big boat a very short ways, change your seat so that you can use your sniper rifle and go to town, that is the easiest way to get that pin.

wait....you didnt have to use the actual gun on the boat? interesting method. I'll be doing this when i go for the bronze/silver/gold star for boat combat.Thanks.

Heh funny you guys mention this, I got this last night on accident.Didn't seem so tough. :shrug:
 
Well, rank 24 now. Hooboy, there is a huge leap to 25 now - 65k from previous around 28k.
My next rank is like 136K away.
That is just cruel. Oh well, it's not like there is any benefit to higher rank at this point in the game.It makes you wonder when you see rank 40+'s though, doesn't it?
i'm interested to see what happens down the road. I have to think we're gonna get some more unlocks at some point. If i'm level 40 when they drop an expansion pack, will i immedietly get all the unlocks from level 25-40? And yes, anyone over level 30 really needs a life. I'm pretty good at this game and have played way too much. (over 50 hours of play time already. Major :goodposting: ) but i cant imagine the people that are level 35 or so. Just brutal.Even if they are just using the uber weapons the entire time, you eventually run out of stars to earn. (nothing after platinum as far as i know) Using all the weapons has probably gotten me ~100K points that i wouldnt have otherwise gotten. Yeah, using the shotguns, bad SMG's and the bad pistols has cost me kills, but the extra points from the stars more than makes up the diference eventually.

Yeah, I kind of hope that boosters/expansions will give retroactive weapon unlocks, as well.So when is the new map pack supposed to drop?
 
i think we get "new maps" (technically maps we already have, just diferent game modes) tomorrow. I think.

conquest on Arica Harbor sounds pretty good to me. Rush on Laguna presa....not so much.

 
I am still trying to figure out that spotter scope. Seeing no benefit at all to this point. It does not auto-spot, so I am still pressing Q the entire time. Might as well go Magnum and get the straighter shot.
