Thats client sidebar detection for you. ruins his game at times for me. Especially playing against Americans in euro servers as they have an advantage then.

Last night I got up close to a tank, placed 4 C4 then detonated and got killed after the animation for clicking was complete yet I died and no explosion. Odd. It I guess it happens.

There seems to be a lot of hit detection issues on a lot of the 'servers' - was playing a game of HC rush on Grand Bazaar a few nights ago - id die and id be in the choose next weapon screen/where to respawn yet people would be able to resuscitate me still.

Which is also fking annoying, the noob medics who resuscitate you but dont kill the person who has just shot you so your in a constant state of limbo, i.e. come alive, get shot, get resus, get shot, get resus and so on.

Hi, im norfolk. smile I had my mate behind me repairing as i was constantly taking fire from RPG's and tanks etc. Also, i had 2 of my squad on me, both engineers so i could keep in the fight. Eventaully got C4'd but until then i was firing at people/tanks and was getting shot back at by people. Also the repair tool has been slightly nerfed anyway so it repairs slower than before.

I was using main gun and canister shells so thats likely why you were getting killed, the canisters are great for dealing with people as they are a 1 shot kill effort for 9/10 shots.

Also the handgun is the G18, a very rapid fire 20 bullet effort.

Yep, very good for dealing with them as well.

Also, on firestorm, whoever UK mafia or similar name is. I shot you're heli down with my main gun on my T90, was a very sweet moment that. hehe

greetings.

did you think it was odd when you killed me (slothsquach_666) that i was shooting at you witht a shotgun - do you have wings of seet - just trying to get an opponenets perspective - unless I am the sttest aimer in all of stland (hence post patch using the shotgun + slugs) I just seem to be gettig killed waaay to easily compared to my efforts...my kdrs were 1.4-1.6 they're now 1 if i'm lucky...

I'm sure my mate will be along shortly to confirm this, but i dont do accuracy. I prefer to hose bullets at people and hope that some hit. hehe

So, it's your accuracy im afriad. hehe As i can safely say im pish with handguns so killing you wasnt out of being some BF god. More likely luck. smile

G18 at close range will take just about anyone out, even if, like me, you have the aim of Ray Charles.

Spray and pray baby, spray and pray smile

Shortcut bundles - whose crappy idea was that? I'm getting stuffed by people of low rank with awesome weapons because they've tapped up mummy for the shortcut.

Would it have been an abuse of power to have kicked Pexy (last night), after he stole my tags?
Not sure, but I'm starting to think he's a hacker wink - I hit him three times with the .50 cal from my tank and he still just ran through and placed C4 on it! curse
I managed to get s99anes tags 3 times in one round, do feel guilty about it now. Was good fun last night.

I used the shortcut for the engineer pack only, being a newcomer I was getting a bit bored of being raped by the people who've done nothing but play this, drink Mountain Dew and masturbate since it came out, it unlocks the weapons and gadgets but not the attachments, spent ages just trying to get an ACOG sight for the G36C

1050 ticket metro earlier. EPIC. Really loving this new feature that PC users have had since the beginning.

Now all we need is 5 flag conquest games.

Could an admin on the PS3 PH server please drop the minimum number of players to 1? It's currently set at 4 and there were 3 of us on it last night not being able to play a game (score any points, lose tickets etc) until someone else joined.

As no-one else joined for 10 minutes or so the player count dropped until it was just me left. If you actually play a game with just 1 or 2 people, it would encourage people to hang around longer waiting for others to join. smile
