Okay, you wiki Carl Gustav. Great. Point is, it is mostly used in game as anti infantry.

That is true. So is the Grenade launcher, and so what? In this game they are both designed and sold as anti infantry weapons.
You could argue that they are poorly balance, but as far as I recall, the GC only has 2%-3% of all kills, so its hardly a game-breaker.

I'm not really getting your point Vreki.

I think thats mutual

You said that the point was that people are mostly using the CG against that infantry, and I don't really understand the point of that point. Why is that bad, it is what is was made for?
Or were you saying that they ignore vehicles to get some infantry kills? We can agree on that

I think the point is that it's too mindlessly easy to use, and anything that promotes TF2 style shoot the rocket at their feet win is bad. I got my platinum with the Carl G in a days sitting (day off!) and that was POST nerf... It's just too easy to use.

Re: Consoles ruined PC helos

Most of you probably knows that DICE consistently claimed that the smoke upgrade could remove tracers on the choppers AND that they had personally tested it a gazillion times.

Well guess what?

We have a fix for flares in the next patch.

LOL Vreki! Im all confused! But yea i meant most players ignore vehicles to get infantry kills with the CG.
THANK GOD the smoke spec will be fixed!!!!!! Sadly DICE will not admit their QA made a mistake by saying they checked and double checked that it worked only for it not to.

yea it makes me wonder if they play the PC version much at all.
Baza also claimed that the DX9 shielded MG bug had been fixed already and told us to go check it few weeks ago when it obviously was never fixed before the patch few days ago. another facepalm moment...

Re: Consoles ruined PC helos

it doesn't surprise me they didn't even realise the flares didn't work

some of the changes just reek of "yeh we looked at some numbers, tweaked this, and didn't even bother playing with them in game; I mean whats the point in that?!!!!11111!!"

pretty ****ing annoying and you know things are bad when you want the old version back, the version where M60 tards were more powerful and noob tubers were on steroids

Re: Consoles ruined PC helos

I don't think I'd hate Demize99 so much if he wasn't such a smug scrotehat. He seems to have graduated from the same PR academy that produced Robert Bowling(fourzerotwo) and Josh Olin(JD_2020).

It's almost like he WANTS people to hate him and his product.

The strange thing is that I remember him hanging around here in the old BF212 days, so he cant be completely unfamiliar with the existence of the PC.
Btw. I think this demonstrates that the fad of updating the users through twitter is a (predictable) failure. It is just a heap of unorganized one-liners that shields the developers from unwanted input.

I have to agree, after claiming that the smoke worked just fine etc he posts this on twitter

@BigFr0st Actually it's in QAs bug list. So don't blame them. I wasn't personally aware of the issue. Can't fly for crap lol.

lol I can't play the game for crap lol

lol I can't be bothered with testing **** in game lol

lol I only play the xbox lol

...

@GeoffConn Son I've been playing BFBC2 longer than you even knew it existed. In retail I play all platforms.

I'm sure he has, and he's probably totally burned out on playing the game. However, just because you've logged 1000 hours into the game at its various stages and on multiple platforms doesn't give you clear insight into how the game plays in its current state, unless you actually play the game.

which he doesn't, at least not the PC version apparently.

Re: Consoles ruined PC helos

I finally got a chance to try the new Tracer, and it was even on Isla Ino-something-as.
I will have to say that this issue has been way overwhined, that was nowhere near the instant laser I was expecting.
