Totally forgot that I was on BC2 360 friend list! :lol So I was surprised when someone invited me (sorry forgot your gamertag 
) an saw faceless and other gaffers. It was a pretty good couple of matches, it so much better than playing randoms that for sure.
It's a shame it was quite laggy and I have to leave so early, I was having a blast.

I'm really close in getting the platinum in this game; I already got all the hardest trophies and just need a few from SP but, the SP mode is so freaking boring and bad that I just can't bring myself to finish it.
Getting the Demolition Man trophy was a royal pain in the rear but thanks to No_Style and some randoms we got it done in one night (it took like 4 hours though...urgh)
Anyways, I played a bit this afternoon (Conquest mode) with danthaman and we dominated. We did a good C4/AT mines combo to bring down all the vehicles in Panama Canal (one of my favorite Conquest maps).

How the heck do you get that many points!? The most I ever had I believe was around 2000 something.

360 matchmaking fail? How the hell are you getting dumped into a game where 70% of the players are ranked in the single-digits when you're 40+?

Seriously, what the fuck is going on with their server providers?
I really wish the PS3 version had a list of dedicated/hosted servers and you had your choice. At least then I could blame myself for picking a laggy server than being forced into one. :|

Had a couple of great games playing with TKAwesome. At first it took a couple of server surfing because it was either too laggy or too one sided (Level 6-20 against almost a whole team of level 40s). It was only the 2 of us pushing in mostly TKAwesome with his arming spree.
After finding a great server in a tiny bit of lag here and there we steam rolled them.

I see. Not much of my buddy list is playing so far. Maybe there won't be much Gaffers playing tonight.
I did get on Demon's Souls for a short time today and do two duels. Beat one guy, then lost to a katana user.
Thought about starting up BC2, but I thought of the lag and gave up.
My friend is supposed to be coming over tomorrow, so if you see me on, it might be him playing. I'm trying to get him hooked so he'll play BC2 too.

Yeah the heat is giving me a headache. I got a wet towel around my neck to cool down just as Survivorman advised.

Rank is just an accumulation of points, anyone who keeps playing will eventually get enough points to be rank 50. they probably base it on the Skill rating on the MS 'Trueskill' thing.NEOPARADIGM said:

Yeah, I thought about that almost as soon as I made the post. Still seems off that you'd get jobbed with a team that shitty, though.

I won't be trying that but I will be having alternate fire on more often now.

It looks really hard to counter. Probably have to go to their base to get in mortar strike distances.

Take out the tank. It wouldn't be easy, but you can charge after you see random missiles hitting your base. Mortar strikes will also kill him or force the tank to move position, breaking his shot.
Mortar strike is only a temporary counter. With an engineer with the tank, I don't see how you can stop this. You pretty much need a dedicated squad spawn camping the tank to stop that.
Wouldn't be worthwhile if you could mortar strike it to disrupt the tank and then repair the crate. :/

Or, you can, you know, just steal the tank and hide with it in the back of the base. People abandon the bradley all the time. Plus, it's easy to sneak down the hill and wait for it anyway.
I am the master of cheap tricks/vehicle jacking.
I love tossing C4 onto the vehicle, waiting for them to hop out, killing them, then taking the vehicle and driving off with it.

Would a tracer dart work at that range?

hrm, is that out of Tracer range?
i've been hit with mortars from people at the front of the hill in front of B in their base on the AT rocket just behind where that tank is, so Mortars would work.

It might work. I shoot tanks that shoot Bravo on the first base of Arica Harbor but the lockon doesn't reach their base. It went pretty far though.

It's a minor bug, pay no attention to it. It still counts as a win if your team won.
Crakatak187 said:
Alright thanks.
Man its kinda laggy, I had some good games though think I'm done for the night.
I really want to get demolition man achievement/trophy but not sure if I'm ever going to get it. I have like 113hrs and I've only gotten around 9 kills towards the 20.

I'm thinking about hopping on again, any PS3 players looking to team up?
Ramirez said:
"We're looking into it."
AKA: Don't hold your breath, it seems. :/
That tactic is something I didn't think about. You can snipe (with a 12x scope) from there, why wouldn't the Bradley work? Genius.
It can be countered. I think the tracer will travel inf. to that distance. The question is if it'll plant/not disappear outside a certain range to that point. Mortars should be able to hit. I've thrown Mortars from that hill the tank is on into the A/B bases before. Why wouldn't it work the other way around? (Oh, right, DICE has to be complete fucking stupid on things, sup spotting range + 12x scope?)
Killing the tank would be the hardest thing, but it seems pretty easy to counter if you have a team that knows what's up and sees a missile that isn't an RPG trail coming from up high.
