Not sure about the health regen setting and how vehicles are effected by this with disables, but could be good.

Dumb question but I'm guessing TeamSync pretty much has been a failure at this point? I see the app was last updated in Nov and few servers have a splash banner advertising a Teamspeak server, let alone a TeamSYNC server? :/

Counter-sniping with 870+frag is pretty funny.

So I noticed when joining a game today, one of the tips from dice was that you can drop smoke grenades from a mortar. Possible? or BS?

I need a server where people with brains play. No idiots (actually, I'm fine if the other side are idiots, just not my side)




If I had a $ for every hour I've spent typing to people

* JOIN A SQUAD
* Only keep 3/5 locations, we spread too thin getting all 5
* No dude, we don't need 2 lots of SQD ammo, switch to SQD sprint man
* Guys, attack E – it's closest to our base, why bother with A and B? keep all the ones on one side of the map, it's logical.

Man sooooooooooo many goons playing this game, it's a real shame
Wake Island is a disaster, we have E / A and C – yeah good work, so they can all spawn at D or B and destroy us thinly spread out

SLAYS MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (

* No, SOFLAMs don't work well inside buildings.
* Yes, assault should drop health packs
* Yes, support should drop ammo.
* No, you shouldn't drive an empty vehicle away from 5 team mates at spawn.

PS, tards that lock squads at 2/4 should be rectally savaged with a broken broomstick.

Yes yes yes yes and yes goddamnit.
I wish there was tighter server rules you could make in the game, I really do.
I drop health CONSTANTLY and Ammo constantly - but alas I'm one person, so I look after my squad but I hate when I give all [team] advice and few listen.

Which also bugs me, Squad leader - I'm rank 48 or something and I am in a squad with 1 other dude. another guy joins who is rank 13 and 15 minutes later the guy who was leader, leaves - leaving the other dude as SL?!?!!
He's a lower rank AND my username is "abrasi0n" so it's not alphabetical AND it's not based on how long I was in the squad, what the heck defiines who gets leadership?

Pretty sure I got banned from the same server a long time ago for using the Saiga with frag rounds. They just ban all the good players because they're terribad.

Would be nice to have six man squads for starters, at least on the 64 player servers. That should fix it up for the most part.

best 4 player combo I can come up with is 2 engies, 1 med and a support. Swap the medic for a sniper with soflam where applicable. This is for the BAK maps, but applies to most of the maps, exceptions like Metro or the Market one.

Of course anyone got better ideas I'd like to hear them.

Played some (a lot) tonight. last round, I started getting some strange black artefacts all over my screen. Sometimes it was trailing off a vehicle, another time it looked like a tent over one dude so I couldn't see /kill him (not a cheat, or at best a very bad cheat 0k/4d at the time it happened).

Still ran just as smoothly, but became unplayable due to the artefacts

Card getting warm? Cant be a driver issue, cos it's been fine since I bought it...
