    was browsing twitch last night and came across a fella called widgitybear.

    sweet jesus, but can that guy fly a chopper, he was in under the bridges in flood zone and around the streets about a foot off the ground, It completely blew my mind.

    METRO LVG DEADLOCK SOLUTION

    my answer to deadlock nade spam in metro is smoke granades and the support class throw a load of them up the stairs ect and the snipers and machine gunners cant see you so you run like hell through then hide and let someone spawn on you and take the objective behind the enemy team then if your team is any way co ordinated push up the stairs ect when the enemies attention is divided



    walllah !

    Throw on a flash hider or suppressor along with the INVR or the other one and you can have a heap of fun

    he's the number one chopper pilot in the world. he's damn good and i learned alot from watching how he flies and adapting my style but he does get boring to watch after a while as all he does is fly.

    he has a very good method of flying in between from bottom to the top of the VERY narrow gap of the tall buildings in the middle of Flood Zone. Took me a good while to get the knack of that but stingers on that map are no longer a problem. Think few of the others learnt it too

    I would have said so. The ability to "spot" through smoke without IRNV made it pointless. You could smoke up the corridor all you want, the big red triangle moving towards them is all the other team sees. Make them shoot better tbh.

    I think one of these recent patches must have change the spotting behavior. Used to be that I wouldn't even need to aim all that close to the target and the red triangle would light up. Also seemed to work through cover where you couldn't actually see the target on screen. Now I have to be dead on and it still won't register sometimes. I was playing metro last night and it seemed like it wasn't working through smoke anymore either.

    Hmm, I've just discovered when you're the squad leader you should be issuing orders by "spotting" objectives. Is there any other stuff you can be doing as squad leader?

    You can also request scans and ammo drops from the commander

    He's class in the the chopper but where the heck was the AA? :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,387 ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    he ran into it later on a few times and very promptly left the area!

    He also has a squad of engineers on his heli repairing him constantly... which is nice :)

    Not taking from the guy. But if you watch him for more than 30 mins you will see how quickly he changes servers though if he gets shot down more than twice, he does hunt quite abit for the easy servers

    To be fair, (a) every youtuber and twitcher does that to one degree or another (though sometimes it's more because of griefers and ddossers than trying to get good footage for editing - which is why you don't see my killing jackfrags in his videos :( ), and (b) if my machine didn't take five minutes to load levels, I'd do it too :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,387 ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    On that point... friends of mine with decent SSD's get in so much quicker than I do that they can have 2 flags capped in Conquest before I get to spawn. Its ridiculously faster.


    Also, a major improvement I found was to ensure that windows hadnt conveniently "parked" 3 out of 4 of my cores... when I unparked them my frames jumped considerably... (I play on a gaming laptop remember ... I get **** frames most of the time anyway).

    You can follow this simple instructions here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FHbGANr6HA


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,038 ✭✭✭✭Sparks


    My machine's so old that it only has three cores anyway and they're all unparked, overclocked and generally feeling put-upon :D
    Mind you, since that last working patch and with the latest nVidia drivers, I'm actually staying in the 40-60fps range at 1100-oddx780 where before I had to drop to 1024x768 and still hit 5fps in games. (No, not 50fps with a typo, FIVE frames per second).

    I've been stalking a new CPU on ebay for a while now, but all the fun with the soundloop bug was making me wonder whether it was worth the effort...

    this is serious advantage, but I hate when people don't use it to capture C :P

    From Widgitybear's battlelog.

    Quits 43.64%

    If he was playing a server with me on it he'd leave fairly quickly. I love rpg'ing little birds. Looking forward to them fixing the accuracy of the RPG-7. Supposibly it's slightly broken at the moment :D

    Yes.


    Yes it is. That's what we're saying now. VERY LOUDLY. So there.


    :D

    Rumours that Naval Strike will be released March 18th now. Origin Denmark had it up but has since been deleted - the same exact case with Second Assault.

    Naval Strike will be the last Battlefield content we'll get from DICE Sweden. They're finished with BF4 now and will focus on Battlefront and Mirrors Edge 2.
    Dragons Teeth and Final Stand will be brought to us by the creators of the abomination, MoH: Warfighter....i.e - Danger Close. :rolleyes:

    A guy I play with the odd time 'gs540' or something is a lunatic heli pilot. I was in a heli when he was doing all that exact stuff in floodzone. Look him up and friend him. Hed be great guy to have on a team. Hes oirish too I think..

    Also I just applied to the platoon there... :)

    Have any of you guys got this awesome battlepack yet?!

    Thats what I was saying dont get me wrong he's a good pilot, but he runs like a biatch when facing a challenge so he loses ALOT of respect for that shockingly high quit rate.

    I'd much prefer someone to get stuck in and stay the course


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,627 ✭✭✭The Freeman


    Wow so danger close are making the last map packs? That's terrible. I'd take the best maps from bad company 2. Laguna press. Alta. Panama canal etc. Instead.

    If I remember correctly the maps from danger close's moh games were shocking bad.

    Could I get a refund on premium please?:)

    Prob not the best time to mention but it has long been rumoured that Danger Close will be developing Battlefield 5.

    They were also "instrumental" in developing Battlefield 4 apparently

    I wouldn't get too worried, DICE L.A. (formerly Danger Close) have had more than a name change so I don't think they can be though of as the same group behind the MoH fiasco.
    As far as I know they did most of the work on the multiplayer aspect for BF4 already.
    As for DLC, look at what we have so far - china rising, with it's missing levolution events and some rehashed maps from BF3 - not exactly a high standard from DICE sweden so far is it ?

    What is the story with the Quit statistic? Mine says 25.3%, but I never quit games! :confused:

    Unless the game counts at the end of the round when you hit the 'quit' button at the stats screen, but seeing at that point that otherwise you'd have to wait until the next map loaded and you'd be quitting a 'live' game....

    Seems incredibly stupid.
