Been a while since I've seen a PH team smashed repeatedly quite as badly as that. Ouch.
TBF, the hit detection/'lag' was absolutely f
king shocking last night, emptying full RPK mags into someone and on the last bullet (or 5th one left in a mag) theyd die, or id run around a corner, spot loads so run back around said corner, get 2m up it and be randomly shotDont know if it was due to them being from Scandanavia (the opposing team) but it was a joke and reminded me of the issues i had with COD and normally hosting a game (except BF is server based and the hit detection is shocking)
So i shold apologies to Pexy really for all my cursing and continous harping on about it - think im just going to stick to hardcore as you dont tend to get these issues in it, you just get team tard more instead.
As for some servers, yeah it is bad, some ive read is that you have to give priority to vehicles of the servers clan, no laser pointing from the helicopter and so on. Ive been team killed and then kicked by the host for no apparent reason - you can report these servers but i dont know how and im not childish enough to do it.
What i would be tempted to do is set up a hardcore server in rush (theres never enough rush servers) and make it UK players only or if your names got a mixture of small/lower case letters (for example LeMMing_JaMeS), youd also get the boot, but alas, i dont fancy giving EA anymore of my money
Am having quite a bit of fun with the C4 vehicle destroy assignment - I'd forgotten how funny Jihad Jeeps/Jets/Tanks etc are!
Drove a loaded up tank straight into an objective yesterday, bailed and legged it into the building, enemy thinks "Result!" and jumps out of cover and straight into tank... KABOOOM!

Agreed – I was on the early shift and we took a hammering then too, and it was on our server! Confused as to how we lost the Seine match so badly as kills wise we actually got more than they did.Reasons could include I think we tended to be a couple of men down so were struggling to cover bases, I also think they were doing a lot of reviving. Also did we have enough players with a positive KDR? I know I am probably in the minority here but I think it really matters – kill someone and they are out of the game for a decent period and if they spawn out of position potentially an even longer period, giving you and your team the time to seize objectives, die and you obviously lose the advantage to you , and also probably the team.
I see the matches feature is now up and running – does this mean we can challenge another platoon? If so does anyone have any idea how this is done other than finding one at random and making a challenge – for example there’s not a list of platoons who want to be challenged is there? Or does anyone know a likely platoon?

Enjoy, but kill me too many times and you'll be banned.
Pexy, you've been warned.
Also, and I know I should keep my fking mouth shut, but just realised going through my stats that I haven't taken a single PHers tags.
Whoop de fking do.

Pexy broke a record tonight and, with it, my spirit. Last I remember was stabbing him after he achieved 100 kills. Absolutely insane, and I remember when he couldn't shoot for st.
100 kills....pffft! t. Game on Metro last night he was something like 38-8 and I still kicked his ass on points....
He might be the Kill-King but I'm unstoppable with a set of Revive Paddles
I'll have to dig out the battlelog later.

Here is the big one,

I did feel instant remorse but then pleasure when I saw it was you I shot, I did laugh when you jumped up and down when you got my tags. I was saying to the other two I was playing with " I am going to get banned in a min".
Mini the game from sat night I was on a roll and got kicked and banned for absolutely no reason. It sayed at the loading screen no jet ramming. Normally I don't get bothered by it, but we had loads of PHers on at that point, sent sawy a message with my frustration.

My stats have improved dramatically recently now that I've just started playing one gun in each class instead of trying to get every gun to 100 kills. F2000/G36C/M27/L96.
Easy money when I've got you to spawn on constantly though!
That German server was strange, couldn't understand why Pexy got kicked at all.
The judge and I tried to get our server going, but none of you joined - regardless, I'm wondering what we've got to do to keep it going? There's plenty of servers running 24/7 and I can't believe they always have admins on...
The new clanmatch option looks interesting, obviously we'd have no chance against the level 100 clans, but I wonder how we could arrange a fairly even matchup?
Really want to be playing more, but with weddings, birthdays, work, the missus and the kids, I just haven't had the chance... Got a 'down week' next week though, so will be on quite a bit when I probably should be preparing for a mahoosively important interview next Wednesday!

Got banned from the next game - raping with their own helicopter. Amusing given the only rule was 'no shoot guns' - I guess they meant shot guns, not that it stopped any of us packing the flechette!

Anyone else noticed that alot of 'official' EA Servers are now back on the searches?

Was that on nosehair you got kicked off? I had left by then but the fact we held you at your spawn at Damavand takes the micky really..
Believe so.Pexy, off-topic, if you're around next Sunday, we're taking the Superleggera to this - http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?h=0... If you ring up there should still be room for your yellow weapon!

I'm happy for whatver changes will make it more popular, after all we got it to use it!
Hardcore puts me at a significant disadvantage being colourblind, especially considering how Dice's 'colourblind support' actually makes things worse, however as said, I barely get to play. Not worried about stats. Just enjoy a good game!
I suppose we need to think what would attract other players, which would logically be catering for an underfulfilled market, whether that be hardcore/cqb/rush only/whatever.
As far as I'm concerned all subscribers are equal, so how about we list the options, and everyone who's chipped in can rank the options by preference. Highest total score wins, if it doesn't work we try the next one down until we hit the formula that doesn't require 2-3 of us to hang around on an empty server until Dice decides to fill it with quickmatchers.
Is there info anywhere of the most popular server filters people enter?
