I'm never quite sure if scope glint exists or not if you're just running around with your gun down. One day I don't see it until someone is aiming at me, other days I swear I saw it before the guy got into sights.

Pretty sure it's only when aiming in the scope, but remember that there's a slight delay from hitting the button to focusing and actually being able to do stuff.

Scope glint only shows up when you ADS with a 6x or above. 4x and down does not have scope glint.

Does the double XP event usually take place when the premium calendar actually says it to (one hour ago) or is it usually like a day late kind of thing?

:geno: Yes, it's like a lava lamp.

I think all the Double XP Weekends have gone from 00:00 (PST/EST?) on Saturday Morning until 23:59 Sunday Night. Friday never seems to have 2xXP.

Ah, alright. Thanks!

Also just went 32-0 on Hainan Resort. 2 kills with the MP443, 1 kill with the AK12, and 29 kills with the M142!

Don't forget to pm me your ideas for theme nights so they don't get eaten by the thread and the next guy complaining that battlelog is to hard.

Also redneck water park sounds amazing. Lol. Most of these are going on just after or around 7est till we get bored or lose goon critical mass and have to give up and go play conquest.

Redneck Water Park, aka Florida's Rapids Water Park.

I want to play tonight, but last night I got an error "Invalid License" and I have no idea if it fixed itself since I've rebooted. I made the mistake of trying to install and update Little Big Planet 2 on a fresh PS3, which means 26 loving updates. Also if Invalid License is a thing I'm still dealing with then I just straight don't know how to fix it. The internet only says my option is to uninstall and redownload BF4, which will probably take the better part of two-three days to redownload.

Can anyone confirm if those in DUNK can see what servers the LLJK goons are playing on?

As part of LLJK I can see the DUNK servers, but I want to know if the reverse is true.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.
Applied to LLJK as IamAhnuld.

Finally did Perfect Landing assignment. Have to land on Firestorm or Caspian tower (don't think you have to land right on the top) - THEN in that same life go on a 10-kill streak. Dirty tactics used: Mortar, UCAV, and sneaking around with bipodded MG4 using FLIR 2X scope.

drat, starting at level 104 you need 200,000 exp to level. I mean, still getting like 40,000EXP per match at least now that I'm using my 100%'s (ran out of 200%'s) but still, ouch.

I'm playing on PC with an xbox 360 controller. How the hell do I slow down in a jet? I want to be able to turn my engines off (like in bf2) but for some reason It never seems to slow down to the point of a stall.

What's your throttle down button set to?

I re-mapped my controller so it's closer to BF3 console flight controls, so I can't even pretend to remember what the defaults are.

Left joystick down. Can you full stall your plane in this game? Will the engines glow go black? That's what I would like to confirm.

This is how it goes with ATI. They got Mantle working for a driver revision or two, then it'll break and that will start it's slow descent into obscurity.

Much like AMD itself. :smug:

Been getting a really irritating problem lately where explosive rounds (25mm, I think or something) won't do any damage, to anything. Was in the AC130 on Dawnbreaker, watching shots literally land on occupied vehicles/into a squad of infantry.. to no effect.

I think I read someone complaining about the same type of thing happening on that map, but when the map changed to Hanoi, I managed to hop in a Frogfoot, and somehow managed to get behind the enemy jet when the exact same loving thing happened. I ended just bailing the now-useless attack jet because I couldn't do a thing with it. Now, I like this game, and I complained about BF3 a lot, too.. but holy gently caress. How the gently caress is poo poo like this still so God-drat prevalent? I feel so burned out over so much of the same poo poo that I'm considering taking a break. In reality, I don't expect anything to ever get better (especially where DICE is concerned), but I feel at this point, it's either that or.. ask for my money back? Hahaha...

I have no problems with my graphics driver, but every time I start the game it warns me that they're outdated and I super-duper need to update them or else the game isn't going to work properly. Literally never had an issue with them.

I haven't had a problem with the jets on Hainan, but I'll corroborate the infuriating "not actual shells" being fired from the gunship on Dawnbreaker. I haven't flown in it in a week, but I doubt they fixed it.

In other news apparently the dead body-shield is a known issue that's being worked on. About loving time.

Now that I have a mic, I never have anything to say.

Also, I crashed three times tonight, which was odd. Haven't had any crashes prior to these for at least a month, if not significantly longer than that. The first crash, I was using Mantle. The second crash was Direct3D.

Hopefully they fix the shitload of other issues with corpses in the process, like appearing to fly TOWARDS the last thing that shot them at high speed and becoming unrevivable if they land too far from the kill position, and generally desyncing horribly.

Also apparently they're not just "solid," they will actually reflect 40mm grenades back at you.
