I used an online ping tool and got a more expected 55-60ms whereas in game it was around 90ms. I cannot preclude my son streaming TV as I played...bless him! 80

I'm going to upgrade my "air taxi" heli' and come looking for you with weapons next time. A kamikaze run to knock you out of my sky is more fun but I need the points!

Congratulations and welcome to the little fella!

That's right... Hide behind a wall!

Here's the list of fixes. Pity about the C4...

No, there hasn't been a recent change. You are right. But I have always given something sufficient time before declaring that it doesn't work and this doesn't. The new MOD was lauded for its "realism" when it was introduced. For example, reaction to explosions, guns being shot from the hands and so on. Whilst I don't see those as game-enhancing, they aren't game-ending. If your game style is "run and gun", and you live on the wrong side of the States or the Pond, you'll notice a deterioration in your ability to hit another player with superior ping. The only exception seems to be if the player is running directly towards you or directly away from you. Usain Bolt players can outrun a stream of bullets fired from the side. In an open map, lacking much cover, this becomes all too apparent. IMHO, this player speed needs to be dialed back down again to level the playing field. COD5 isn't an arcade game...

This is Usain Bolt, also known as "Lightning Bolt": Please note that he isn't wearing a US Marines, Wehrmacht or Imperial Army uniform. However, with the running speed set as it is in the DM server, he'd be outpaced by any of the combatants on that. I opined when the speed was tweaked upwards that it would greatly disadvantage the higher ping players and, after playing on the server since then, I can confirm that assertion. It has created an imbalance that detracts from my personal enjoyment and I even witnessed a visitor quit over the issue, yesterday afternoon. So, this is a personal plea - can we please return to the way we were? I feel a song coming on... http://youtu.be/6VhNaXV8K4U

Never Ever Forget How to Laugh~~ Wisdom from Grandpa ....... Whether a man winds up with a nest egg, or a goose egg, depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries. Trouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin' his salt that he forgets his sugar. Too many couples marry for better, or for worse, but not for good. When a man marries a woman, they become one; but the trouble starts when they try to decide which one. If a man has enough horse sense to treat his wife like a thoroughbred, she will never turn into an old nag. On anniversaries, the wise husband always forgets the past - but never the present. A foolish husband says to his wife, "Honey, you stick to the washin', ironin', cookin' and scrubbin'. No wife of mine is gonna work." The bonds of matrimony are a good investment only when the interest is kept up. Many girls like to marry a military man - he can cook, sew, and make beds and is in good health, and he's already used to taking orders. Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it. The! Older we get, the fewer things seem worth wait ing in line for. Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved. How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth....Remember about Algebra. You know you are getting old, when everything either dries up or leaks. I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top. One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young. Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable. Old age is when former classmates are so gray and wrinkled and bald, they don't recognize you. If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old. Have a GREAT day.......and keep Laughing

Still haven't worked out why my ping was 90ms and Mikey's was 65ms when he lives 274 miles further away from Denmark...

not me cool i dont like flying lol and dont do gardens..... I ain't camping in Beers' garden after he broke those beer bottles mowing the lawns... Rumour has it that it doesn't smell too good round there either due to a suspected gas leak.

Condolences to you and your family, Renegade. A difficult time, I know. We're here if you need us, buddy.

...and so are you...and so are you! Welcome, all!

There is always a morning and yours has dawned. Welcome back!

Nearly three months after I received it as a Christmas present, I unboxed the Steelseries Sensei, this afternoon. I like the fact it glows orange... I downloaded the engine software (this mouse has the equivalent of a Pentium processor onboard!) but have stuck with the default profile for the time being whilst I learn about messing with custom profiles. I reckoned that having separate profiles for BF3 Land and Air would be a good idea but have to implement that. If you see a chopper flying more erratically than usual, you'll know I screwed up! 80

Just tried - looks like it is offline...

...like I do, you'll love this!

Welcome!

Is there a kit to attach the wife to the engine? Oh boy, would I be in trouble if she read this...

Those outside the USA may be surprised, as I was, that prohibition of alcohol sales did not die in the 1930s but is alive and well in lots of counties across the nation. See "The Slow Death Of Prohibition": http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17291978 The vote in Williamsburg KY was in favour of serving alcohol in 100-seater restaurants and passed by just 14 votes, reports WYMT TV.

It says I don't have permission to view the attachment - can you post this as an image instead Dean?

Ready made theme tune for the series... I feel a song coming on... http://youtu.be/sthRYIB91P8

Three women go down to Mexico one night to celebrate college graduation. They got drunk, and woke up in jail, only to find that they are to be executed in the morning, though none of them can remember what they did the night before. The first one, a redhead, is strapped in the electric chair and is asked if she has any last words. She says, "I just graduated from Trinity Bible College and believe in the almighty power of God to intervene on behalf of the innocent." They throw the switch and nothing happens. They all immediately fall to the floor on their knees, beg for forgiveness, and release her. The second one, a brunette, is strapped in and gives her last words. "I just graduated from the University of Kentucky School of Law, and I believe in the power of Justice to intervene on the behalf of the innocent." They throw the switch and again, nothing happens. Again, they all immediately fall to their knees, beg for forgiveness, and release her. The last one, a blonde (you knew it), is strapped in and says, "Well, I'm from the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa and just graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering, and I'll tell ya right now, ya'll ain't gonna electrocute nobody if you don't plug that thing in."

The champagne Charlies who run the country say there's a problem with alcohol abuse so, instead of targetting their efforts at those who end up in hospital A&E (emergency rooms), they stick a load more tax on beer consumed by those of us who don't. It's just another taxation scam. I don't drink the fizzy "wife-beater" produced by the monster multi-nationals like InBev. The brewer of one of my favourites says they'll keep "London Pride" at 5%. Good for them! Because there's a big difference in taxation of alcohol here and in France (25 miles away), one can have a day out, buy ones beer more cheaply and not pay a penny to Chancellor Osborne's racket!

I know we've even had Russians in there from time to time. Language (IMHO) only becomes an issue if players on the same team cannot cooperate due to lack of understanding. One also doesn't know if a non-English-speaker is spamming or being abusive, though that hasn't been an issue in the past to my knowledge. Do you really think that other Europeans would be more attracted to a server with a lower ping?
