It was good. I thought it would remain popular.

I was wrong.

Yeah, the player base died really quickly

So, there was a game that came out on Steam today that I saw in the "coming soon" list the other day. I laughed about it and said, "I should make this my next BS let's play!" as a joke, like I did with Farm Sim and some other Japanese game that I forget the name of. And then I started reading more about the game. It's one of ... those weird games. I'm not sure the fact that the version on Steam is the censored one really makes it any better.

Hey! Long time no see. Whats with the surprise?

[jimykx]

been playing a lot of battlefield bad company 2 lately. Got back to it and have had plenty of fun.
There are a lot of ranked modded servers right now, with modified XP values, and where you can use the DLC weapons for free and even servers that run the Vietnam expansion and you can play on them without owning the expansion. I guess EA/DICE kind of let the servers run free and are not controlling this kind of thing anymore.

I might have to try BC2 again jimy. Last time I tried it not many servers to be found.

vietnam REALLY is a lot of fun. I'm glad I got to try it after all this time even without buying it on the modded servers. It actually deserves the title of a new game more than BF:Hardline does. I'll be sure to buy this expansion sooner or later (even though very few servers are active) just because they really deserved it.
Actually now that I think about it, probably if they were releasing BF:BC2:Vietnam today that's what EA would force them to do, work a little bit more on it, call it a new game and sell it for 60$.
That lovely sound design (in my opinion better than the latest BF's [probably since it's more aggressive, woompfy and less realistic]) and whole aggressiveness of the explosions and weapon handling. Been having a lot of fun

Oh I really liked the Vietnam expansion for BC2.

Upgraded my phone on Friday for the first time in about 2.5 years. Went from a Galaxy S3 to the Galaxy S6. If nothing else, Samsung and Verizon are super consistent when it comes to the amount of bloat they force on their devices. Disabled and uninstalled (what I could) to the tune of about 30 different apps. My old phone was rooted and had Cyanogenmod on it for at least 1.5+ of those last 2.5 years so going back to the bloat is kind of... meh. Phone is a freaking beast otherwise. My phone, a device I hold in my hands, now has a higher screen resolution than my main PC monitor and my TV. Also, it used NFC and bluetooth to sync some apps and settings from my old phone to my new one while Google downloaded and synced up a selection of the old apps I had installed on my S3. Changing my phone was about a million times easier than changing PCs.

I know. I've had phones on my hand that have a higher everything than my current laptop xD.
I'm still waiting for Nokia Lumia 1020 to get really cheap, or for someone to manufacture an android that looks as good and has such a great camera. I really love Nokia's square look, I don't know why but I dislike rounded phones

[signa]

Hah, going from a S3 with CM to a factory S6 is going to give you bloat shock.

I have a S4 and have been contemplating on installing CM, but the phone otherwise works fine. I run CM on my nexus7 tablet.
