    If a team short, its the gentlemanly thing for the other team to drop players. Subs allowed at any time. This is for fun so no need for any shíte ie spawn raping(unless a team is pushed back). Noob tubning constantly MAV whoring etc:

    Squad leaders can sort out TS Mumble with the team beforehand and tactics, pick squads etc: We have numerous servers on offer so ensure your team know which one. For the boards teams i suggest they open a thread with any details required in.

    Maps:

    Karkand Conquest 200 tickets 32 man mode
    Karkand Rush Default Tickets

    Both Squad leaders must confirm ticket totals after the match. Be it in screenshot form or a post, screenshot prefered. The tickets will be combined and the winners are the one with the most tickets COMBINED from all 4 rounds.

    Was wondering the same, craggy and tig only played the 1st round. Shouldn't it be the bazaar\kharg combo. We still have to play the karkand combo with alpha.

    I was wondering, when this leaderboard is going to man-up and start using hardcore settings such as 60% players health and no gay crosshairs! I mean really, why do we use crosshairs at all? If you really need aiming assistance other than looking down the scope, use a red dot sight.

    I think the game is MUCH better with 60% health, having to almost empty an entire magazine into someone to kill them is a bit much. Ive strughgled because Im so used to hardcore settings, so I am able to usually kill 3 people before reloading, now, unless Im good enough to get a headshot, Im finding Im having to reload ALL the time, and thats usually just when the enemy pops around the corner and wipes me out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 231 ✭✭mick-fitz8585


    I can kill 3 people with one clip in "softcore as they say" easy enough and then theres your hand gun for when you run out mid fight which again can kill up to 3 people so thats 6 at most in softcore without reloading.

    If you come up against 6 people your going to die so no need to worry about reloading lol.

    I find with hardcore its just a load of people camping and spraying or tones of sniper's which just gets annoying when you try move from flag to flag

    You dont count Mick. Your stats speak for themselves and I saw you play in the Boards games. You play way above average,so you must be better at accurately aiming than myself.

    I very very rarely ever switch to pistol, I dont know why not. I often struggle because Im left handed and have the keyboard over to the side. So much so, that I bought a set of Scythe foot switches which Ive used to duplicate my numbers 1-3. That way I could switch quickly between pistol etc, but Ive found I just use it for using turbo in vehicles (I changed default for this purpose) and switching weapons in ground and air vehicles.

    How do I train my mind to change something Im now used to? As soon as Im out of ammo, I instinctively go for reload, rather than selecting pistol!

    You need to play Arma 2 :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,410 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    I use a logitech g9x as my mouse and have the tilt left and tilt right functions of the wheel set to pistol and rifle which allows me to switch weapons swiftly..
    Have about 600 kills or so with pistols as I love using them and depending how near the enemy are to me will switch to pistol rather than reload...
    Practise using your pistol and you'll notice a big difference.

    Hardcore is really for people that can't aim properly and I find that I really hate it in Battlefield as it means everyone just camps and snipes or take potshots at each other.
    I wouldn't mind but I loved hardcore mode in COD...probably for the easy kills it brought me I suppose :D

    Plus I'm left handed but play right handed..funny but it's just the way I saw people using the keyboard and mouse and just did the same..

    Your opinion, and it's not a leaderboard, not like clanbase or anything.
    Tryin to keep it as close to vanilla as possible.
    Everyone has their own personal preferences.

    Battlefield has no home for hardcore mode, devs should just have left it out. BF games used to be special, but each release dilutes whatever it was that made the franchise so great.

    So meh!


  • Registered Users Posts: 913 ✭✭✭TheFairy


    DJRichard we get it that you dig hardcore, you've told us enough times :p !

    If I'm honest I'd like something in between, ie more bullet damage and no 3d spotting, oh and 6 man squads. The rest is fairly spot on imo.

    Can you imagine 6 man squads? Would be utterly amazing. Does anyone know if there is a way in TS where it would be possible that the squad leader could use a different push to talk button and be able to communicate with either the squad leader of another channel, or the entire other channel? It would be a great way to reduce confusion with everyone talking at once and shouting "behind you" and the entire squad turn around. It would mean that the team is still all in touch with each other if required.

    it's called whispering in TS...check it out on their site..I'll post link later on when I get home

    yeah able to set something like that up in ventrilo.
    you able to set a push to talk button that will only speak a a particular person, or people i think.

    not too sure about cross channel though.

    so i would say teamspeak can do it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    In TS just set up different channels for every squad, then have two buttons. One to talk to channel and one to talk to whole server. It's can work pretty well actually, especially if you good squad leaders and limit talk to whole server to just them.

    If you play enough with the same peeps then TS starts to get organised itself, ie peeps start to only communicate what they need too. I never liked moving peeps to different channels, if everyone hears what someone has to say then there are far more people who can act on it.
