  1. Epic! Dave > don't worry, Euan is the worst moderator I've ever seen. I don't think we've got anything to worry about.
  2. Dave, right click the file and click "run as administrator".
  3. Try running it as admin first, sounds like it *could* be a permissions thing. Otherwise I'll have a go this evening and let you know my findings.
  4. Sean change your sig dammit. It's for small things, not a bloody billboard.
  5. You can't really blame the game for the snipers though, that's just idiots who seem to think that 2 long distance kills a match are more important than actually winning. There are technical issues, but the patch is being released today so we'll hafta wait and see.
  6. Can't comment on the PS3 but on the PC it's frankly awesome, but marred by technical issues. The graphics are amazing, but then I'm playing with a graphics card which alone has more grunt than 10 PS3s. Gameplay is smooth as hell, when the game performs, it really is awesome. The technical issues are annoying, but there was a patch released which was meant to fix this so I'll have a go in a bit and let you know. Commander mode is a gimmick which can be deadly with a well co-ordinated team. Weapons feel a bit rough around the edges, certain weapons feel like they should be in different categories, but this is also being worked on. Snipers shouldn't exist, they're the most infuriating prats to have on your team or against you. I'd say wait out the technical shit, then when the game is nice and smooth, there'll be used copies about. If you enjoyed BF3, you'll love bf4.
  7. I read somewhere that the cars that disappear go to an impound where you can steal them back. Not sure though.

    Weapon Stats

    http://symthic.com/bf4-stats Holy shit. I think I might have spaffed a bit at how awesomely thorough these guys have done this. Go have a look, see what you think. I've been using the ACW-R a lot and according to their stats, it's a solid choice.
  9. Unfortunately not, no. Steam is notoriously hard on that.
  10. Five hundred squids will get you something decent, especially if you've got a mouse and shit. It will also leave you a good upgrade path so you can shove more and faster bits in it as you go, and stuff like the case will be cheapo crap but as long as you don't fling it around you'll be fine. You'll probably max BF4 out on £500. Also, if you want, you can come down to London and we can build it together. Not sure how that'd work transport wise, but if not we can do it via Teamspeak or whatever.
  11. Have you got a mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc etc? We can build you a decent system for less, that will run very well, but I need to know what you've got to work with.
  12. You're looking at a grand. Less if you've got a monitor, mouse, keyboard and whatever else you want.
  13. Yep, sounds like a plan!
  14. Yep, I got bored of his shit after the first one. If it was someone going round a rally course like that, then massive props, but it isn't. It's someone doing takes over and over and over and then loads of editing. In his vids there are always billions of skidmarks in the spots he goes around, obviously parts where he fucked up before. And in some others you can actually see that the shots were taken at different times of day, or different days completely. Still, he provides the Monster generation with some entertainment for a few minutes which keeps 'em off the crack I spose
  15. This film might stray a bit from the original, but we live in different times. This trailer sealed the deal for me: I. Cannot. Fucking. Wait.
  16. It's getting to a point where the two biggest players are fucking up so badly that all it will take is a decent game that works to hammer them from the top spot. Both CoD and BF on PC are so knackered at the moment that they're barely worth playing. BF I'm sure has improved since the recent patch but the launch was a catastrophic failure. People are saying that games are getting more and more complicated to make, and devs are getting worked harder, etc etc, but that argument falls apart when you realise that there are so many recycled elements from previous iterations, and even then, these are triple A titles: if you don't have the resources, then hire more. It's not that hard. The game coding industry is saturated with people trying to get their foot in the door, but the publishers would rather release a defective product and deny all this talent the opportunity to grow than hire some of them and release a quality product. It's a joke really. If you went to the cinema and watched a film and had to come back numerous times to get the full experience you'd flip your shit, yet gamers seem to suck it up (myself included) and let these publishers get away with it.
  17. Nice, I was expecting you to say an inch or so. looking good Steve!
  18. Oh and don't worry about Euan, he's a daywalker, everything he says is irrelevant.
  19. You earn them for certain achievements. Dunno what they all are, but I think you get a bronze every ten levels or something.
  20. You can open them in Battlelog, simply click on "Soldier" then "Battlepacks" and open them. They are / were a bit glitchy on the PC, I had to open some in game because they weren't showing up in battlelog. I also had to reboot Origin for them to show up. Not sure if that's been patched yet as I haven't played in a few days, but I've got a few so I'll have another go tomorrow or so.
  21. What are people's thoughts on the new Battlepack system? I personally love it. Unlocking random stuff is always nice, I've unlocked some googies that would otherwise take me weeks, if not months to get in BF3. I've got a few camos and other shit, mainly optics and a couple of dog tags. The only issue I have with it is that some things are battlepack only, which means that it's pure luck to get something you want. I'm not sure if you can get doubles of anything, I haven't had any yet, so time will tell. Thoughts?
  22. Who cares? So are mine! Post that shit broski!
  23. Wooo, want one? Click here! There are loads of designs to choose from, so go grab yourself a nice look-at-how-shit-i-am banner!
  24. Dylan's a fucking legend, anyone who has met him will agree with me.
