If I let my computer idle (as I do most nights), or sometimes just randomly, it doesn't function properly (won't load the game, wont open origin main screen, wont function at all, basically), and needs a restart of the origin app (by way of closing through the task manager, and then opening it back up again). Sometimes, this doesn't work either, and the whole machine needs restarting.

Very nice i only have 450~ knife kills.

2 days i unlocked the m16a4 PKA-S scope at 270 kills, today i unlocked it again. Both rounds show on battlelog. My weapon unlocks still only have 262 kills for that weapon.

Anyone else had this issue?

I get these problems too, usually stuck on 'joining' but never firing up the game. Instead of rebooting, I kill the unresponsive process with Task Manager as you also try. I don't normally turn of computers, just let them sleep when not in use.

Hmm, I've found it's easier to just restart, so it's a clean slate. Only takes a minute to have everything back up and running...

On another note, the MG36 is boss... Started using it tonight (after mastering the m27 IAR [which hasn't showed up properly yet]), and already clocked up 70 odd kills...

Here's hoping they get the stats fixed... Otherwise I'll need to get anothe 55 m27 kills... Even though the service star showed up, complete with dog tags, battleflog is still saying I only have 445 kills with it.

Also racked up a million points just on resupplies last night. I think I was the only support on my whole team, so everywhere I turned, people were screaming out for ammo... Almost felt dirty getting so many points without firing my weapon...
