Anybody want to help me farm a few unlocks? I'm really struggling to get the Deagle, GOL and UCAV. It's frustrating..

I thought you recently had a monster PC upgrade Glade?!

I feel your pain though, I've been living off a 250gb hard drive for about 4 years now- not really cutting it with the size of games these days!

250GB goes nowhere these days! Wait til you have to start un-installing games to install others, it feels like 1999 again when my (at the time) monster 6GB hard drive got full rotate

I'm overhauling my PC in the next few weeks and have just brought a 1TB hard drive (£55) for general use along with a 120GB SSD (£60) to run Windows and a couple of other bits. Will hopefully get the best of both worlds then, I can't believe how cheap storage is at the mo.

hehe

A mate of mine is in a similar situation, his Steam folder alone is now over 2TB! He does have 8 PCs though and spare storage coming out of his ears so it's not so much of a problem.

When another friend purchased Wolfenstein online, this guy brought round the install files (to save him spending hours downloading) on a portable 1TB SSD...

Well the bow unlock is *fairly* straight forward looking at Jackfrags' videos. Four players with all four Phantom dog tags entering the lift on Hangar 21. Although they don't know the code yet. My biggest obstacle will be four friends laugh

Still not sure if they have it planned or if they're trolling us majorly and this is their 'sequel' and they won't do it.

Battlefront 3, Mirrors Edge 2 and then BF 5 in the next 2-3 years so if they're going to do it I can't see it being before 2018.

Got the side off my pc, never bothered putting it back on after overheating issues I had before.

Was skyping my Aunty earlier.

Stretched my foot out, into the PC, and had a bit of a belt off one of the boards!

Don't do it kids!

The dust! THE DUST! rotate

I'm getting the last bits ordered for my PC upgrade later- quite looking forward to seeing what improvements I get. Will be putting it together next Thursday hopefully.

It's helped that a mate happened to have a barely used Sapphire R9 290 tri-x oc graphics card sat in one of his 9(!) spare gaming PCs! nuts

Anyone got any idea if it'd be worth sticking my old stuff on Ebay/Gumtree? Specifically a Crosshair Formula IV motherboard with AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3.2ghz cpu, and HD6970 graphics card. Seems a waste to not do anything with it considering it still runs BF4 like a dream at almost max settings.

If you can break up the machine and box up the bits you could probably make some money selling as individual bits - If only I hadn't upgraded last year I would have bit your hand off.....

Yeah I still have the boxes for those components so will clean them up and see what I can get.

Where I am replacing motherboard, cpu, graphics card, and have a brand new SSD and 1tb HD for the new build I did consider getting another power supply and case and putting together a backup machine- either to use as a spare or sell complete.

The only problem is I am re-using the 8gb of RAM (as it's DDR3) so would have to replace that- and I'm not sure the cost of those components would then make it worthwhile...
