Jup it sucks bigtime. Waiting for data @ Server Browser and then the connections loses.
By the way.. I like the Punkbuster way ! Already 12 people banned in last hour because of using AIMBOT.. The whole day punkbuster is banning those people for using the AIMBOT. It's just excellent how punkbuster is functioning.

People might not like Punkbuster for numerous reasons, but atleast it gets the job done.

Please check your internet connection. |
New and better message:

Seriously, I'm sick of this.

Ah yes and you did all this while riding a bike in the blizzard being chased by rabid dogs going home to a beating. Moving on

Ahhh, the ADD generation. No-one has any patience any more. It IS better than MW2 (which I never bought btw) and it WILL be fixed. As it stands now, it's easily one of the best MP wargames out there, and it will only get better. Go play something else for a while. Better still go outside and socialize.

Seriously? While it looks good, i would not use that car. Its completely open. In a multiplayer game, that would mean certain death the moment an enemy sees you. Considering the ratio of snipers vs non snipers on most servers, it might very well be before you even get to fire a single shot.
With that in mind, is there a point in adding it to the game? Knowing that noone would use it for anything other than simple transportation?

Ah well... gonna practice today a bit to get my score up because this is embarrising |
You mean the 0:29 K/D ratio? With less than 100 total kills/deaths, i wouldnt worry about that.
A) The game takes some getting used to, i surely struggled in the first few hours to spot people, especially the snipers hiding around in the bushes.. the maps are huge, with lots of open spaces and thats a paradise for snipers. There should really be some heavily forested, or densely populated city maps, where there is more close quarters action. Fighting from one house, to the next. Think skidrow from MW2. Sadly, theres nothing like that in this. Just vast open spaces where the snipers can have a good target practice.
B) K/D ratios are pointless. Especially in games like BC2. You can have a great KD ratio, if you do nothing else but sit on a hillside and snipe. Would that earn you the respect of your teammates? Hardly. Snipers do not capture or defend points and only in the rarest of cases do they manage to snipe the guy planting the bomb on a point of yours, or the guy who is trying to defuse the bomb you just planted. Score / Minute is also ridiculously biased in favor of sniping. I can get 200+ points for each kill while sniping from a distance. Thats like 5 normal kills for an assault, or 10 resupply/heal bonuses for a squadmate.
All in one, statistics are overrated. (before someone feels the need to state the obvious: yes, i have no love for snipers  )

Well, snipers are necessary to keep enemy movement suppressed and to deal with enemy snipers. So they are not useless at all. Also, one thing many seem to forget about is the motion sensor, I barely used it at all at first, but it's incredibly useful, especially near the M-Coms. Although that is more for a close combat Recon class, not a sniper.
All in all, any team needs a few decent snipers...they can make the game if they play it right. But unfortunately too many times there are more snipers than needed, so it can actually break the game for the team.
Also, in my experience, it is the medics who get the best scores, especially if they stick to their squad. They have the firepower for kills and a constant flow of points via revivals and healing...and there's plenty of that to deal with in this game.
PS: A patch is supposed to be released today. Nothing major, but still good to know the game is being constantly updated.

I've often thought the game would be a lot more fun without snipers. And noobtubes. Or at least limit them. Just my opinion; can't really express that on the official boards though, lest I be spammed with 10 pages of "stop crying" and various other schoolyard insults.
I hate excessive whining as much as the next guy. But I hate the "suck it up" "be happy with what you've got, no matter how shit." attitudes even more.
