Serpico MTZ here, you may remember me from such films as "Manic Medic" or "Eccentric EMT".Sill4 said:

@Evolved1 - Damn you for not being in my squad. I was on the left gun in your helicopter and you were just hovering there while I was about 3 inches away from being able to shoot at the guy that shot a rocket at the heli.
I was just like "FUCKING MOVE TO THE RIGHT ARRRGG" *watches rocket fly and hit helicopter*

Sorry. If it's any consolation, I called that guy out... at that moment I favored the side of the gunner that was in my squad but I guess he didn't see who I was talking about.
Another time I basically flew into heavy turret fire that I knew was going to be there... should've just waited another 30 second or so and he would've been gone. :/
my bad.

i liked the part when the other team did the PBR glitch on Hill 137, so one of our teammates switched sides, brought the other boat to us and we did the PBR glitch and went under the map to kill their glitched PBR.

I had a feeling we were going to lose on Val 4th Checkpoint. A lot of the team was paranoid from getting knifed by those 2. Those guys were annoying, but thanks to their behavior we won most of the games because they love to spawn camp knife. For 2 games straight I accurately predicted the knifers behavior.
1. Spawn camp hiding.
2. Like to opposite sneak to enemy base by going the least obvious route (my routine if I wanted to steal vehicles).
3. Armor and automatic shotgun. Because all you have to do is spam the trigger rapidly. It's so ridiculously strong.
Glad you played today JM. Miss playing with my BFBC2 buddy. Come by and visit us sometimes hahaha
I whipped my family's ass in monopoly. Towards the middle of the game I was dying with 2 monopoly and my brother and his girlfriend both had 2 monopoly all with hotels. I paid all my money from 0 hotels to 3 and luck rolled my way to victory. At the end it felt like all 3 of us were playing Russian Roulette with dices that's how close it was. My sister got wiped out early. She's the one you always hear in the background when I play BFBC2.

Medics on the opposing team at Vantage Point turned what should have been a quick victory into a long, drawn-out, slow bleed. Other than that pretty damn easy.

Reality
Snipers are really blown over the top in "teh coolness" factor like Ninjas or some shit.
I hate always being the only guy attempting to meet the objective. And, somehow, I still manage to get them until the last stand which is fucking impossible alone. Then, the other team just steamrolls right through because no one wants to use vehicles or play defense. So, they have all their vehicles plus ours and I'm the only one trying to stop them... yeah, no fucking chance.
Now, I have a shitty k/d ratio (1.13) and my "skill level" dropped from 600 to 140 (whatever that means!). All from running in gun ho and alone.

At that point might as well leave and find a game with people that actually does the objective. Don't torture yourself by staying and being the only guy doing something that matters. It's near impossible for 1 guy to dwarf an entire team.
I do server roulette everytime I'm starting a server alone (other gaffers not playing atm). If I join and see an M-com armed and nobody on the team is going in to stop it, I'm gone right afterwards. If I see a team that camp when attacking is to much of a pussy to actually go in their base and attempt to arm, I'll leave.

It's difficult to do this on the consoles. On the PC, you just go to a regular server that has rules in place and a nice group of regulars.Crakatak187 said:
On the consoles, you're shit out of luck. Hard enough finding a game at night. It would also be nice to have the option to not play against clans like in COD. Though, I guess that would make finding a game that much harder. heh
Got the game free, so I can't complain. Just wish I knew that the 360 had a worse community than PS3 beforehand. I had the choice between the two.
btw consolites- why does no one even attempt to cover someone else's back?
I'll have 3 guys behind me and be like "well, I guess there can't be a guy behind me, so I'll just watch the front" then *bam!* shot in the back while 3 guys just watch. No attempt to kill him before I die, no shoutout, nothing. Does anyone use the mic? And getting guys to toss you a med kit or ammo is fucking impossible. Hey, you're one of two guys on the team that's not a sniper. Congrats, you've gotten this far! Now do your job. When I first go the game, I was thinking about getting Vietnam because that's where the people would be, but this has left too sour of a taste in my mouth to spend my own money on it.

Do you have Vietnam? It's what most of us are currently playing.

Yeah, glitched boats vs. each other had me laughing pretty hard. Also, one time attacking on Hill 137 some guy on the other team kept destroying us with AT mines. Throwing them on our head and them blowing them up. I thought that was pretty clever.The Faceless Master said:
Good matches though and I love bathing in medic points, it's awesome.

hahahahaha oh yeah i remember hearing some of you guys talking about that! i had no idea he was skeet shooting AT Mines though, that sounds hilarious! i've done it a few times in the p0ast, but i found it to be unreliable, the mine didn't always blow up.Darkshier said:

I know right?
I have a list of stereotypes for randoms that is true most of the time.
1. Randoms are pussies.
2. Randoms are blind.
3. If you don't move most randoms will not notice you. This one is hilarious to me.
4. Obvious, randoms love sniping and rambo medicing.
5. One random will always walk even as far as 2 bases back to knife you on the UAV station.
6. Rarely does a random medic throw you a medic pack to heal you.
7. Randoms can't snipe for shit.
8. Randoms don't watch anybodies backs. Even if you are surrounded by random teammates an enemy will just walk past them and knife you since randoms are blind.
9. Randoms love giving away tanks and vehicles.
10. If you are winning on defense with near 20 tickets they might get cocky and desert the base to spawn camp and causing you to lose that base.

14. Random rambos will revive at any cost no matter how impractical it is.

ooh, i should jump in! i was playing earlier, but i had to eat, and having the GAF squad attacking the entire other team while the smurfs played with themselves just accelerated my hunger.bean breath said:
Got my W/L ratio up to 1:1. \o/ I can handle defense by myself, but offense is impossible. lol
Haha. The other day I landed a smoking UAV next to an engineer that was repairing a stationary machine gun for some reason. What does he do? Gets in the machine gun and blows it up.recklessmind said:
This kills me. They all WALK to the middle of the field and here come a couple of full enemy vehicles zipping through to the base. Not that they're gonna run back, but even if they did, they'd be too late.Crakatak187 said:

Rorschach you should play with Faceless and the 360 gaf. Faceless is one of the best players on console gaf.
Hey gaf just got this the other day and love it! Better than black ops imo, however i noticed that it didnt seem like a lot of people were online last week when i was playing(360 here) i usually play TDM on black ops, so i tried squad deathmatch or whatever. Is it just an unpopular game mode?

Deathmatch and BFBC don't mix. Unless the person love hiding in houses all the time shooting across to other houses haha.

Nvidia's new beta drivers seem to have given a pretty big boost in performance. White Pass was one of a few levels that seemed to have dips when all the buildings were destroyed, craters everywhere, explosions, bloomy snow, etc. But with these drivers it ran extremely smooth! Definitely check them out.
Hope they don't break New Vegas!

16. Random's aren't sure what that "mcom" thing is and really wish that stupid siren noise would stop going off at all of their bases.
17. Randoms are guaranteed to hop in your tank while you're repairing it, drive off and get blown up.
18. Randoms will spend an entire game sniping, get 8 kills, lose at the first set of mcom's, but feel like a bad ass because they managed to shoot 8 people from 200 yards out.

Nice addition Strike. Damn I hate tank jackers.
I had only one kick or so in the first week or two playing the game. I played for probably 4-5 hours yesterday, maybe one kick. Today, every 20 minutes almost on the dot, I get punkbuster kicked for losing key packets. I verified that the game is updated, and the Windows firewall has exceptions for BFBC2, pnkbstra, and pnkbstrb. Is there any clue in the 20 minute period, or anything I could try?
*edit* I'm getting "Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrB.exe heartbeats stopped" errors, apparently. I haven't found a solution yet. It still happens each 20 minutes today.

We could if Microsoft allowed it in the first place. I don't know how good the 360 gaf is, I only know how good Faceless is and how unpredictable the man is. Faceless is the alternate route king. We do have Abuc the MVP (My nickname for you Abuc) though.
