Haha... I was getting annoyed, you were the only one killing me! :lol
At one point space opened up, so I sent an invite to get you off the other side, but I guess you were enjoying yourself too much. Eventually you joined and I was like, "Omg finally, fucker."
Good job holding off the gaf steamroll while your were over there.abuC said:
I rode with you a couple times as an engineer... but I couldn't repair the chopper while flying. How do you do it? I tried everything. :/

Dude, you are an amazing pilot. That or I'm just really really bad. Whenever I attempt to fly, I always lose control and nose dive into the ground. Then again, the controls are really hard to get used to. By the way, what control scheme do you use for flying?

Best way to learn to fly (if you're going to be playing a lot of BC2) is to consider picking up Onslaught... there's an attack chopper in the first spawn of Atacama Desert. You can practice and mess around with the different control schemes. The mode itself is kinda shitty, and hardly anyone plays. But if you do offline it's very good heli practice.
I'm not the greatest pilot... but I'm an ace compared to what I used to be. Used to only be able to nurse a stolen heli back to our base for someone else to fly, but now I have my moments.
Yeah, the Huey is really fast. I piloted one in a public Rush game toward the end of the losing round (SMH Randoms), but it seems less heavy and more agile than the BC2 vanilla choppers. I'm scared to think of the people that will level up on them.

Man, the choke point situation for the attackers at the beginning of Vantage Point is nasty. Not sure how that made it through playtesting...

There should be a path that leads immediately up to the road on the right side. They need to give Attackers another way out of that mess. An earlier path (still in the black) would be a way for them to at least get out of death valley.
The path that's there right now isn't enough. They need to add another.
You wonder how they don't see stuff like this, but then I think of the original design choices for White Pass. :lol
edit: honestly I think VP is pretty shitty all around... and I'm already sick of playing it.

The original White Pass was awesome. Now the defenders spawn right next to the crate. Nice. Even with the D2.0s the tickets went by so quick that it was easy to defend.
Vantage Point is a pain to attack, but it sure it fun to defend. Lots of TNT multi kill traps. If your whole team rushes off the bat it's possible. Just don't let them push the team back.

i wasn't too hot on the flamethrower until i got used to the range, now i love it! one thing i don't like is how most of those huts have an invincible frame that stops my tanks
and i totally was expecting tanks in Hill 137 Conquest.
is it just me or is it kinda shady how the only CQ overhead DICE showed was from Phu Bai Valley, it's like they knew people would complain about the other layouts...

yeah, White Pass is now fun to attack and defend past the first base instead of boring or frustrating!Mr Sandman said:

how's Vantage Point on Hardcore?OldJadedGamer said:
edit: oh snap, the M40 is a 1HK on HC at any distance right?
The Faceless Master said:
With Magnum Ammo, I think. Yes. Not that it matters as I just Bronzed it tonight. Seems the PS3 stat servers are back.
Flipping seriously. Memory SPAWNS ON ME AND RUNS PAST FIVE FUCKING TIMES. I'm sitting there "SMH >:|" while using up the rest of my sniper ammo trying to cover A. We lose, because I'm running out of ammo and trying to make shots count.
And I knifed Toda tonight. PSN message: "Dick!" :lol

That and flamethrower doesn't do damage to them, nor can you totally raze them to the ground.
It's a bit disappointing. Like BF1943/"Frostbite 1.5" :/

That, too. But mostly because I didn't have sniper ammo to support more. At the end of the round I was literally 003/000 in the M40.
And my M40 Bronze better hold. I took those rounds to bronze it, and it isn't showing up on my stats page yet. Fix this shit, DICE.
Also trying to snipe A is funky. If I put some more time into it (and using the SVD to spam quick shots), I could probably go for heads on the disarmers. I kept attempting it only to hit their body. Guess I need to be a little more risky with my bullet drop calculations.

Those were fun games guys... getting late though. Need to sleep.
I love everything that isn't vantage point. Fucking hate that map. It's just the most stupid design. I'd rather just have three maps than that pos.

recklessmind said:
Vantage Point wouldn't be bad if you could out of bounds antics and sneak past the tank. You can't crouch to pass the tank to sneak behind it. You have to jump over it, giving yourself away. WTF, DICE. :/ And there is some jumps I'm trying to make that can't seem to happen due to the slope of the rocks. If I had it my way, doing a trick jump up could give the attackers a slightly better position to spawn through and try to meatgrinder to A.

Man I had some fun flying the huey tonight... had toda in there repairing... slinging that thing around, down through the trees is too much fun. Guys in the guns were like wtf and I'm like "Im trying to get away from their fire" haha yeah right I was mainly just messing around. :lol

yeah, it should be 1HK without magnum, just re-checked and it does 70 minimum.TheSeks said:
Had a helluva time tonight with the PC GAFBC2 crowd. It was amazing playing with a group that coordinated and communicated (not to mention shootin' the shit). We went and busted balls for the most part, except when history had to take precedence... :lol
Looking forward to playing with Anton Sugar, AcridMeat, and the rest of the GAF Company Bros in the future.

Man, I really enjoy being a Medic, but I die a lot. :lol
I should probably stop trying to be a hero and think before I go out and heal someone.

It's the map I've played the second least and only on Rush... should actually try Conquest since I'm a big Conquest guy. I am playing in Hardcore and it's been super fun, very concentrated with choke points but in a good way. I've been using the flame thrower mostly and just straight lighting people up. Since I don't really play anything but hardcore it's hard to say how it's different. I'm winning half and losing half which is perfect.
Love the placement of the MCOM's and it seems pretty balanced enough so far, but my opinion may change later.

WTFFFF11!
I hate randoms... And I hate Vantage/Spawncamp point. Worst combo ever. Ok, I'm grenade spamming the opposing team to hell (consisting of some gaffers). I repeatedly blow up Jtrizzy, I continue to laugh at his misfortune. Then my team (full of randoms) decides "Eff it, we'll let 'em win!" and we proceed to get nearly steamrolled by strike, Wes, Jtrizzy, and rest of their team. Victory was so close...

They were pissing me off. I eventually broke through and just hammered anyone that came down the hill. You guys put up a good fight, but once we got past the first set it was easy. I got B on the second set - some guy was hiding in a house camping it, my teammate and I took him out and then I rpg'd and uzi'd 3 guys as they went for the mcom
That was a nice come back match, but in the end I was just like "fuck, I'm glad that shit is over" instead of "sweet, we won!' I just can't believe how terrible that map is.

Tons of ace pins tonight
I would have felt bad killing some gaffers tonight, but there were so many cheap randoms in the other team (especially that moron who spent the whole game sniping.) that I really can't.

Samehere. Once you guys ran through the second set of crates, I pretty much threw in towel. VP needs some serious tweaking (at the very least). But I had a blast tonight, I occasionally enjoy the challenge of playing against fellow gaffers

Yeah there were some annoying players on that team. I remember one guy kept spamming grenades over at Bravo on that really small map. (I think it's Vantage point?) It was so annoying! :lol

Yeah that map is a clusterfuck. Attackers get grenade spammed to hell and back. Wes and I was talking about how bad the first checkpoint was when we had 20 tickets left. I lost hope early on and sniped the top guy on your team over and over. He was another clan though. Something UMT.

Dude that was me, Lmao -- I kept chucking grenades over the rocks, toward the cliff and grenade launch spamming the small chokepoint. My team wasn't going to make it A or B. Figured grenades might help... Lol.
Edit: I got you twice with my random nades memorycure<handgrenade>UnbornYeti. Hah.

if you already have the 1.05 update (Map Pack 7) all you download is an unlock key. that gives you a few seconds max to do 4-7
