Not bad for a 9800 !
Society's to blame,
Or possibly Atari.
New server browser is quite decent! Weapon load outs are now saved from server to server too, which is awesome.
On a side note I've found a way to discourage the masses of recon from camping. Just load out your smoke grenade launcher and smoke their positions. Means they can't see anything. Repeat until desired effect is achieved.

Or plant a tracer dart in their face. They can't see anything with a flashing red light in there eyes

LOL!
Hope noone does that to me btw, sometimes I have to hang back and snipe to get my k/d above 0.3.
Just had a massive session; thoughts...
M60 has now been replaced by the meaner and leaner sister guns the PKM and Type 88. Why the LMG group got any buffs at all is beyond me. But hey-oh, **** happens.
Tracer dart is hilarious, virtually instant tag, any choppers that go up, are down instantly. And because of the increased speed, I managed to tag a chopper from a half a map away!
Glad to say they haven't messed with any of my favourites gun. Currently working on the M416, and if anything it has received a slight buff. The AN-94 is now an official death ray. The STG.77 AUG & F2000 seem a lot more popular.
Knife hasn't changed at all for me. Exactly the same. If anything I would say it is more deadlier and much more silent (it doesn't make the grunting lunge forward sound anymore).
No longer getting one shot killed by noob launcher. Which is hilarious, as I just nailed them back before they can reload
Hit detection seems to have gone wonky somewhere. I plugged atleast 10 shots into this guy, and the body spurted blood, and it moved around. But no hit detection flashed up. Only happened a few times, but enough for me to notice.
Oh, and overall. My ping/latency has dropped by 20ms on my regular server - good times!
Here are the balance changes from here: http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/batt...changes.aspx##
As requested by the community, here is the exhaustive all inclusive changelist of all balance updates made in the R10 Server update for PC.
Increased the base range of all Automatic and Semiautomatic weapons for more consistent close range combat.
Slightly increased the damage of Semiautomatic rifles over long range for more consistent damage output.
Increased the zoomed burst accuracy of LMGs and decreased LMG accuracy when moving to reduce LMG run and gun.
Decreased the base damage of the M60 and XM8 LMGs to bring them in line with the other LMG damage values.
Decreased the damage of the PKM over long range to balance it with other LMGs.
Increased the base damage of the Type88 LMG to balance it with other LMGs.
Slightly reduced the base damage of the M16 and G3 to balance the increased range.
Slightly increased the damage of the AEK971, F2000, AN94, and AUG over long range to balance them with other Assault Rifles.
Reduced the lethal blast range of the 40mm grenade and M2CG to highlight their role as a secondary weapon against infantry.
Slightly Reduced the max range of the 40mm shotgun to balance it with other shotguns.
Slightly increased the base damage of shotgun rounds and reduced their range to clarify ideal shotgun combat distance.
Reduced the base damage of the PP2000 to balance the increased range.
Increased the damage of the 9A91 over long range to balance its lower magazine size.
Increased the damage and range of the M9, M93 pistols to make them more desirable as a secondary weapon.
Increased the range of the MP443 pistol to make it more desirable as a secondary weapon.
Increased the damage of the MP412 over long range to balance its low rate of fire.
Slightly reduced the rate of fire of the M1911 pistol to balance it with other pistols.
Increased the repair and overheat speeds of the Power Tool. Now overheats sooner but repairs the same amount before overheating.
Increased the maximum number of Motion Sensors that can be carried from 2 to 3 and increased the speed which new sensors are acquired from ammo boxes.
Significantly increased the speed of the Tracer Dart projectile to make it more effective against airborne targets.
Increased the reload time of the Mortar Strike and reduced the damage it does to heavily armored vehicles.
Decreased the range of Bolt Action Sniper and Pump Shotgun Slug rounds when using Magnum Ammo for better Kit Balance, especially in Hardcore.
Slightly increased the Health of soldiers in Hardcore for better Kit Balance.
Increased the benefit from the Medkit Heal+ specialization to make it more desirable as a Specialization.
Decreased the benefit from Vehicle Reload Speed to balance it against other Vehicle Specializations.
Slightly decreased the benefit from accuracy specializations to balance the changes to range and accuracy tweaks.
Fixed a bug where the BMD3 would take extra damage to the front armor.
Reduced the explosive damage from Attack Helicopter cannons.
Increased the damage of AA guns against all targets. The AA gun should be much more effective against infantry on Port Valdez.
These changes will eventually make their way to the 360 and PS3 as we work with our partners Microsoft and Sony to continue to support BFBC2 on all platforms.
With <3, Demize99.
the tweaks and balances look pretty good, especially like the tracer dart and increased effectivenes of AA against all targets
Im not too sure what to make of these changes - Last night everything felt a bit funny. I think they've over done the tracer dart to be honest. Its a bit like a rail gun, those choppers wont stant a chance
Same here, not sure what to make of them. Seems like the M60 with magnum ammo still pwns all. Noob tube got a nerf to it's splash area and I was just getting the hang of using it!
Something I'm not sure about - how much does aiming down the sight change your come of fire & spread when using something like the XM8 or M60 compared to firing 'from the hip'?

Not at all, and neither does crouching.
Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

Not sure if we have any server admins on here, but if we do could you all please read this. I don't want to run into those guys again. MCE have now banned them from their server
Definitely this has changed. On more than one occasion I've snuck up behind someone and had to knife them 3 times before they die.
It does still do some 1 stab kills, but I don't know what qualifies me to do this rather than slash at the guy 2 or 3 times...
When using the knife now I've found aiming for the head will be a 1 stab kill, but often as you say it can take up to 3 to take them down if you aim for the back.
Is it as simple as that? I never had to do that before is all....
Fair enough, I'll aim for headshots and see if that helps
There is a bug indoors, that cause the knife to fail...epically.
