Yeah, the PPSh is ridiculous. Almost no reason to use anything else if you're playing Vietnam. Although I still LOVE to run around with the flamethrower at times.
Yeah, how tough could that possibly be? Ridiculous.
The M14 is certainly no slouch, but that PPSh will let you pretty much snipe at full-auto from about 200 yds with wicked accuracy.
you realize that my computer is over 3 years old (other than the video card) and eats this game for breakfast...right?I can only remember one crash in monthsSo anyway, I got tired of the constant crashes, ya know? So I went ahead and said, screw it, I am upgrading.I have a great case I got on special about 8 months ago (the Scout), and am pairing it with an Asus X58 Sabertooth, 12 GB triple channel memory and an Intel i7-950. That should keep me until next year. . .
It's just something going on. I have been wanting to upgrade my office anyway, so my office gets the i5-750, 8 GB RAM and the home gets the new one.you realize that my computer is over 3 years old (other than the video card) and eats this game for breakfast...right?I can only remember one crash in monthsSo anyway, I got tired of the constant crashes, ya know?

Gonna keep my AMD 6970 2 GB video card, but also added a 120 GB SSD so my Steam games can fly, as well.
The multiplayer gameplay I've seen looks to be cookie cutter stuff taken from other FPS's already available, but I admit that the single player campaign interests me. I may give it a rental.
For whatever reason they gave up on trying to make team chat work. We have a vent server to chat with other FBGs. Much more fun
It works, but even I'm surprised when anyone uses it. I remember getting into a squad the other day with either you or madcow and our squadmate wanted us to spawn on his jeep to drive or something and I was like "Wow, did I just hear someone from the squad say something in voice chat?" and whoever it was in vent said they didn't hear it. So either it was a rare occurance or just the voices in my head.For whatever reason they gave up on trying to make team chat work. We have a vent server to chat with other FBGs. Much more fun

We currently use Ventrilo which is similar to Teamspeak and have our own private server. Once you install Ventrilo create a user name and then log into the server with the information below.
I was in a server last night (Nam) where the whole squad was talking. However, I couldn't even tell you what button to press to chat with your squad, so I was silent.It works, but even I'm surprised when anyone uses it.

Sounds pretty slick. What was the cost difference?
I got this mobo for $175 after coupon, normally $200 I believe.
Based on the videos ive seen, multiplayer didn't look great. But I'll be picking it up for single player.I'll play BC2 at least until i hit level 50. I've come too far to give up (roughly 1/2 way to level 48)Mad Cow said:Is anyone jumping to say Crysis 2 multiplayer or are we waiting it out for BF3? With Vietnam and the newer maps, there is still a lot of life left in BFBC2 for me, but don't want to be left alone either.
Yeah, the single player will be good. I still have to finish the first one, was about 1/2 of the way through I think. I might just start working on that now that I finished up ME2. There are very few games that I have actually finished all of the way through. I get too busy or something else comes along, just the way it is.Based on the videos ive seen, multiplayer didn't look great.

The multiplayer wasn't that great from what I played on the XBox 360 version. Just your standard team deathmatch or hold the objective stuff with the extra perks that your suit gives you, and when you think about the fact that everyone has the suit, it's just a basic deathmatch.I still need to finish the first Crysis single player myself. It was okWish I could get rid of these stupid migraines. This latest one I've had since Wednesday. It's been so bad, I won't even attempt to play BC2 with it. And that's bad.Based on the videos ive seen, multiplayer didn't look great. But I'll be picking it up for single player.I'll play BC2 at least until i hit level 50.

Nice. I will almost certainly preorder the LE to get Back to Karkand. Just waiting for it to pop up on Steam.BTW has anyone played the SP campaign for BC2? Is it worth it for the story at all?
I've played a big part of it. It's ok for a campaign, but nothing special. The character interaction is funny at times, but the check point locations suck. If you have plenty of games to play, I can see never playing it, but if you've got nothing to play, it doesn't hurt to get into the campaign. You won't be missing anything if you never play it, though. A couple of cool sequences, but nothing you haven't seen in a Call of Duty campaign.
I thought the BC2 campaign was well done. There are a few filler missions for sure, but the storyline overall is intriguing and there are a hand full of really epic missions that make the whole thing worthwhile. Heavy Metal is probably my favorite campaign mission of all time. Not the worst thing you could be doing if you've got nothing else to play. It's worth mentioning that I was superstoned when I played through the BC2 campaign.
If you go with Steam, certainly don't plan on taking release day off.also waiting for the steam pre-orders to open, but obviously I will be getting this on launch day.And if I can actually download and play it on launch day, I will probably be taking the day off to do so
You might want to take about 2 days later off. 
I well remember the BFBC2 Steam release.
i also remember this day. I know you had more problems than I did.If they pre-release so we can download before release day, I'll take the day off. We'll see.I might be better off taking the next day off.If you go with Steam, certainly don't plan on taking release day off.also waiting for the steam pre-orders to open, but obviously I will be getting this on launch day.And if I can actually download and play it on launch day, I will probably be taking the day off to do so
They would be wise to allow the preload, which they obviously did not last time. I remember people that were buying it at the store were going that morning. I don't think Steam even had the file in place to download until later that afternoon.i also remember this day.
