Luftwaffles

Mine is lawfulwaffles. I only really use it for BF3, though, but I have Medal of Honor and BC2 activated in there from steam.

You'll need a Support class to provide the infinite ammo now, but yeah, pretty much. Edit: Found a little bug with the weapon descriptions.

I will always upvote Corgi pictures.

For those that are in and playing, I made a BF3 Platoon for PXoD people. There might not be many of us actually playing, but it'll be a place to at least snark at each others stats or do whatever the fuck platoons are supposed to do. For those that aren't in, you can at least look at the logo for it. I feel like a 5 year old.

I would totally change that to Battlefield 3: Press X Or Die.

sporkwaffles in Origin, sporkwaffles in game. I'll add you tomorrow night when I get everything activated.

You are a better man than I, Malicious. But anyway, my copy came today via Amazon. I really want to install it and play it tonight, but alas, bio midterm tomorrow. Probably not the best idea. Amazon has a really odd way of doing release day shipping, though. Rather than ship it 2 day or very far in advance, they shipped it last night at 7:00 and it showed up today at 12. Not that I'm complaining, but it seems like it'd make more sense (and save them money) to ship it 2 day or sometime in advance.

Well, I agree with both Johhny and Dex on a lot of their points, but I think at the same time I'm more than a little biased because I've sunk more time into the Battlefield games than any other FPS, and maybe any other game series. I only have a couple points here because most of my opinions on all of this are pretty boring. First, in regards to the Recon class being broken, I wholeheartedly disagree. To me, the Recon class is the most versatile class in the BF games (or at least BC2, the only time I've played the recon class for an extended period of time), and that's why so many people have a problem with it. Because you can play it sitting 3 bases behind and sniping, people do, and because you can run around quick-scoping and one shotting people do. The problem isn't wholly with the class, it's with how people play the class, and unfortunately, the class lends itself to the extreme agressive playstyle or the passive, irritating sit back 3 bases behind and snipe playstyle. The problem with these 2 styles is that one breeds hackusations and the other makes teammates rage at you when they have to respawn and run up to the next base. You can't do those types of things with any of the other classes in Battlefield, and that's why I enjoy playing recon so much in BC2. Unfortunately, I'm not very good at it, so I don't do it very much. Eventually my luck runs out with quickscoping, though, so I kinda rage and go assault or something. Secondly, I don't really think that BF needs to or has good balance or good teamplay or good anything. I've had some of the worst multiplayer experiences in BF, and some of the best. The reason I keep coming back to the Battlefield games isn't the immersion, it isn't the guns or the gameplay, it's that I've spent so much more time in the BF games than any other series I can kinda pick up where I left off. I keep playing the games because the learning curve is practically nil with the exception of the new maps now. I keep playing the games because they're fun, not because they're better than COD or have great weapon balance or teamplay, because, well, that's in the eye of the beholder. They're not really well balanced games a lot of the time, and the engine is a little broken with hitreg on high and low pings, but the Battlefield series is by far my favorite MP series out there.

Cool! It'll be Friday when I get my hands on it but I'll likely be playing it all day so just hit me up if you're looking for a few games. Sweet. I sent you a friend request on steam (ironic), so I'll probably message you there when I get everything sorted on friday probably. I usually work or be social on friday, but I'm often back by about 5 PST (think that's fairly late at night for you), but I'd definitely be down for games this weekend anytime. And yeah, Harri, the only reason I preordered vs. waiting for release and snatching it up was for the Karkand maps. I do like me some BF2, even if the pack was going to come out later anyway.

Well, scratch what I said above. I broke down and bought it with my most recent paycheck, kind of on an impulse. Bought the physical edition from amazon, and with Prime shipping I get it on tuesday (25th, or release day). So yeah, Dex, if you want to play, I'm definitely interested in running through some of the Karkand maps or playing a bit of coop.

As odd as they are, the amount of accidents from garbage disposals (that's what they're usually called where I'm from) seems pretty minimal, or I haven't read about them or come across one in years. It's just such an American thing, not wanting to scrape the food off your plate into the trash or anything.

Take everything zh1nt0 says with a grain of salt. It seems like that guy is more wrong than right most of the time. I sure hope he's right, though. Commorose sounds essential if there's no full team voice chat (ala TF2) and in-squad is only through Battlelog. I fear the days of full voice communication in Battlefield games are history. Also, what's the deal with a day one patch like that? If they already know what's going to be in it and are already coding it (Commorose, etc.), why not just launch it with the full game? I've heard nothing about BF3 going gold yet... Not planning on getting this day one unless it suddenly appears on steam (doubt that), but it's something I'm definitely gonna keep an eye on for later if it goes down in price.

I floss my teeth with them. Really, though, I have no idea. I use them everyday, mostly on the bus and with my phone, but it's definitely not anything out of the ordinary, nor is my music even all that loud. I think I just have awful luck with headphones, as I've gone through about 4 pairs a year since high school.

Razer Deathadder, Microsoft Sidewinder X4, and ( ) Monster Earbuds. I usually don't like Razer or Monster all that much (think their stuff is generally overpriced), but I needed new earbuds bad and the mouse + keyboard were pretty much gifts to myself. I'm curious to see how long the earbuds last, though. I usually burn through about one pair every 2-3 months, and then warranty them, and then warranty the replacement pair, but if these Monsters last me as long as a friend says they will perhaps I will have changed my mind about them.

Picked up Dawn of War II: Retribution in the THQ sale. Might not be the best in the series, but I do like me some Warhammer at times, and it's got great coop.

I was actually able to change my ID via EA support because it met one of the requirements for a name change, which is apparently having either your full name, phone number, or other "personally identifiable numbers" like your social security number or govt ID number. Here's a link that details the process. I mean, I wish you could change your name via the app or for other reasons, but this is better than nothing I guess. Also, who the hell puts a govt ID/SSN as their online handle?

Looks like what Conviction was to the Splinter Cell series. Here's hoping it turns out like Conviction, though, which was actually one of my favorite games when it first came out. It might not be Hitman, but it does look kinda fun nonetheless.

Definitely GiantBomb and RPS for me. Not sure if TotalBiscuit counts either but he's sold me on many a game. There are some things I've learned to take with a grain of salt on both RPS and GIantBomb (namely the Battlefield series), but I really do like their coverage (recently) of games like Red Orchestra 2 or The Witcher 2. I think I'm just really finicky about details, and I feel like GiantBomb, RPS, and TotalBiscuit (to an extent) give a lot more detail than Kotaku and Joystiq, etc. Or maybe I just really like Quick Looks.
