frank.club posted:The auto balance warning while you're on the winning side of a 1000 ticket beat down is like a 32 person Russian roulette There's at least one server I've played on where the autobalance warning generates constantly if teams are even 1 person different. But all it does to "balance" the teams is make sure anyone who joins the server gets put on to the side with less people, so if you have a bunch of rage quits you just get spams of "PREPARING TO AUTOBALANCE: (Waiting for 6 players)". It is hilariously ineffective. I also got my first hackusation today on Bank Job because I rounded the corner so I was looking down the area between the columns and the exterior wall of the bank, and a whole squad was running at me single file. I shot all of them in one long burst, and clearly I would have to hack to be able to shoot a bunch of guys in a hallway who aren't firing back.

It was one of the buildings on the Downtown map, somehow they didn't notice me taking the elevator up, then loving around trying to melee one and just giving up and tasing three of them.

I'm still amazed by just how oblivious people can be. I used a grappling hook to get on the roof on Riptide that's always camped to hell and stabbed all loving six snipers up there without anyone noticing.

There is a article from guru3d floating around reddit and other assorted sites right now. So before anyone here gets their panty's in a bunch and starts crying I figured I would clear up what I'd actually happening. So the idiot at guru3d found ea is being evil by tracking hardware Id and shockingly enough uses your hardware to generate it. You should also note that in his article he starts by saying changing GPUs and later talks about also changing the motherboards and CPU. Hardware I'd such as this has been in use since shortly after games started letting you rent servers. This method is used by valve, ea, Activision and well pretty much every company. Hell it is built into most game engines to save development time and effort. This "tester" is a loving moron and does not have a clue what he is talking about in his Sorry about spelling errors autocorrect on the phone seems to hate ID. xyigx fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Mar 25, 2015 |

fletcher posted:Spelling errors aside I have no idea what you are trying to communicate with that post. http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/ea-infects-battlefield-hardline-with-new-ghastly-drm.html Turns out there's stealth DRM that assigns your computer a hash value made up of your various hardware (GPU, CPU, MOBO), giving you up to five values per game license. If you try for a sixth you have to wait 24 hours before you can use the game again. For most real rear end people this is probably not going to be an issue, but if you are a "Graphics review" site where you are changing out drives and putting them in different computers or changing out components it is apparently a problem and is a sign EA is the devil and whatever else.

I'm surprised, all of those balance changes actually sound good. Already balancing more competently than they did in BF4.

lol sometimes goons are such whiny sadsacks tho I actually just left because it was painful to listen to people upset about my kuhdurr an admin said he'd balance it and all he got was ITS THREE ROUNDS TOO LATE and i think I heard a "im never playing on this server again" lol

Just a reminder that this game is still new and most of the server mods are not working 100%. We are trying out best and we just ask you to bare with us.

I normally see eye to eye with Yig but I have to break here. I thought having to use Origin was DRM enough. I don't like the idea of them monitoring my hardware on top of having to use Origin. I also can't recall Value or Activision pulling this kind of thing in recent memory. Then again, arguing that anything is okay because Activision does it is a losing battle.

They only do it for hardware ID bans. You have to change 3+ items to get the 24 hour time out. Vac uses the same thing for HW bans it is extremely common.

Right now, before there are any expansions, is there any practical reason to get premium? I'll get it eventually, but if it's not gonna give me any real features until the first dlc, I'll hold off and hope for a sale.

Any thoughts on "best" gun for the transport chopper? The standard 50cal is ok, but now and then I miss even stationary targets while the heli is hovering, so the hit detection seems kinda off. Anyways, the m3m 50 or minigun. What do you guys prefer?

The m3m is better for taking out helicoptors and armored trucks but if you play the One True Game Mode (hotwire) you dont see any armored vehicles except other choppers, and the minigun makes fairly short work of them anyways. plus it sounds way cooler

I am hoping it gets better with the air cooler. So I guess for now I am going with the minigun.
