Why isn't BF2S updating my stats. I've been a first seargent for days now and bf2s still shows me with only 18,781 global points. I see everyone elses updating but mine. Who in the BF2s world have I pissed off now.

P.S. I also fot the vet medic and the vet pistol last night, woot. It would be nice to see a little more silver on my sig but since bf2s has seen fit to forget me I guess that's not going to happen.

Did a little research and found that it is an XMS feed problem with EA since thier latest patch. For some reason on some (You know I would be one of those) people are not able to get stats updated. I've had problems with EA since day one. Basically I spent 30 dollars for special forces to hate it and have it screw me over with stats. Thanks EA, you ****ing ass hats.

Robby, since you fail to ever even boot the game up except for one time every millineum, why don't you ZIP IT and let the adults have a conversation.

Now who was that said they were going to suck Andy's balls.

we Katrina'd those foos 9th ward style in tanks on warlord, it has some good maps, but the night maps are just too crazy.

Biggs
November 28th, 2005, 12:55 PM
yeah we did.

warlord and the maps with the hinds are really fun, but all the night maps and those lacking vehicles are not my style.

Ok, I see where they released the new XMS feeds today but apparently it's not helping my problem. BFHQ is updating but my BF2S profile is not. ANyone heard anything on this.

I enjoy getting credit for my badges when I get slaughtered ground pounding becuase I'm running around with C4, pistol, or knife trying to get badges. To me part of the game is the challenge of getting some of these ribbons, badges, and medals. Granted score isn't everything, but for me its something. I like it. I want it, I need it. You will respect my authoriti

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
November 30th, 2005, 01:36 PM
The people are the main reason I play, but a lot of times I can only play when no one else is on. So getting the badges and ribbons is a ton of fun and gives me something to shoot for. Notice I still don't have my aerial or anti-air ribbons, which basically everyone with 10 hours of game play has. But I recently got the always slipping through your grasp knife awards. I've gotten 7 kills in a round twice now, but the first one never registered so I recieved both my basic and veteran knife badges at the same time just 2 days ago. My only theory why that happened is because I have enough knife kills to get my expert badge. I've played 5 or 6 whole rounds trying to get my knife badge and 10 or 15 partial rounds in the attempt. The partials were when I would only have 2 or 3 kills with 50 or so tickets left so I would give up.

Point is the badges are lots of fun to try to get for yourself, but for some badges you need some help. Namely the ones that have a teamwork requirement, like the Legion of Merit ribbon. There are a few of us that are eligible so we need to work together and get that one, 200 hours of play and 50 teamwork points in a round.

LA_MERC_Diesel
November 30th, 2005, 02:27 PM
yeah that one is hard, I am trying hard to get it, it used to be easy until everyone left the blackhawk whoring

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
December 1st, 2005, 06:48 AM
I think if we get a good blackhawking map, and our commander is one of us on TS we could do it. Have the commander do scans and set up uav's so we know if there are enemies at the CP's. With 6 people we can take CP's in like 5 seconds so anyone near by will see it go to neutral than ours before they can even turn around. We just need to do the old theory where we leave them 1 or 2 CP's so they can take other CP's for us to retake. Kinda like the old 300 point rounds we used to do.

Thank god, for a minute there I thought I was the only stat ***** in the bunch.

LA_MERC_Diesel
December 1st, 2005, 07:57 AM
Yeah I think we need to work on that strat, and it is one that is underutilized now.
We did it to perfection on that 293-0 round. We had a 6 man blackhawk squad and then we had Target's Trecherous Tank Squad...on a flying map we can have Biggs providing CAS (close air support)

The blackhawk is just as powerful as it always was, it is just you have to get out for the captures and then get back in, so it is a little more difficult, but can be done with us chunking out nades and the person we are supporting being support.

so easy medal strat are 5 engies 1 support in the blackpot with either or both a tank and air division depending on how many we have and the map

the other team will be like WTF!! :headshot

don't be silly!!!
lol it is what made the CS server so popular and the game as a whole so popular, everyone loves stats and a good reference for comparison, and BF2 has captured that, but takes the stats to a whole new level.

Granted I play BF2 becuase you guys are there. BUT to me stats are a big part. It generated a lot of interest in CS and its doing the same in BF2. The best part about online gaming in being able to play with your friends that live far off. That is the number one thing but stats sure are fun. Having a goal to reach is better than the mindless spawn, kill, die, spawn, kill, die of some of the FPS like Quake, Tribes, Doom, etc. I want stats and goals, woohoo.

so what your saying is, your pretty bored at lans cause there aint no stats?

lol jk, i see what your saying.


on another note Andy, go here: http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/announcements.php

and read the top news article, its what youve been waiting for.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 2nd, 2005, 07:24 AM
LOL, Darren you know as well as I that LANS are a whole different animal. Fun doesn't even begin to describe them. Also, I was on top of the dameon tools update for 64 OS the second it came out. I've used it a lot and I love it like I did the 32 bit version. Go Dameon Tools. A great piece of free software. BUT, Do you know how to disable the websearch crap it installs when loading. That's kinda annoying. I simply go cntrl-alt-del and end task but there has to be a way to dissable it. Maybe I can take it out of the start menu. ANy way I saw it. Thanks

lol, was just trying to get a rise out of you about the lan comment. Also I asked a friend on the daemontools thing, and he said that during the install the is an option now to not install that ad crap. I cant test it tho :(

December 2nd, 2005, 07:43 AM
LOL, A rise out of me. I'm so dossile. You know I don't flare up, little ole me. Lol. I know and you did, LOL. Anyway I will try to uninstall and reinstall and see if it gives me an option to not installthe search crap. On another note since this is the BF2S thread and the XMS feed is broke (But not for the paradroid site you found Darren) I thought I would give a Friday morning Update. If they ever get the XMS feed fixed we should put this somewhere ont he front main page like we do the CS stats. Anyway here's the update as of 8:36 a.m. 12-2-05

to be honest i am a big fan of targets commanding skills...he is pretty dang good at it. i find it very helpful to have him commanding when we are playing cause it truly makes the game so much easier and we always seem to pwn when we got the whole squad on ad either target or X commanding.

LA_MERC_LaTech
December 2nd, 2005, 09:31 AM
It was funny last night...Ex was on the other team and I was commander and he kept telling me where to drop the arty. I know I got him once (sorry), but it was just freakin funny to hear "Drop it *place*" and I would. Granted, I would only kill like 1-2 people every time...but everyone else there HAD to be scared!!!

December 2nd, 2005, 11:47 AM
Paper huh? I'm kind of a plastic guy myself.

I used to be the bronze but Chrysler made me start working for my paycheck again. Asshats. Now the only reason on Paper is because I've been down for the past week and don't go back to work until January 9th. So I should be able to sorta keep up with you guys. Although I go to Disney World for a week starting the 11th so I'll fall behind again.

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
December 2nd, 2005, 11:54 AM
Np Scott I figure we had an all asshat team so I might as well help get the round over so I could switch to your side.

As for commanding Toby is far and away the king, I'm trying to do some ground pounding while commander but I'm still learning. About the only thing I do that most commanders don't do is I'll drop supply crates right next to the tankers so they can pwn in any armor battles. We actually had a guy do that last night but it's pretty rare.

Must get the explosives ordnance vet badge. I needs it. I wants it. MY PRECIOUS!

Biggs
December 2nd, 2005, 02:08 PM
ok i need like 300 more kills to ge that distinguished service medal....i think it will take 2 days. i also need about 25 more hours as usmc to get the navy cross so i figure that will take about 8 days.

i really need help to get these (need ten points for each) veteren medic heal, veteren engi repair, and support...

LA_MERC_Andyconda

Biggs
December 2nd, 2005, 04:52 PM
hi, my name is Brent, and i'm a stat*****. lol....i really dont care for the badges and medals but i really care about my k/d, which is currently like 4.1 and i hope to get up to 5 in the near future.

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
December 2nd, 2005, 08:11 PM
For the engi one we need to have a 40 man server that plays 64 man maps so we have enough time to get it done. Also maybe and little haxing, like have someone on TS on the other team blow up arty, uav, radar over and over so we can sit in one place and just repair basically the whole map.

Medic isn't too hard you just have to do some ground pounding and stick close to the mass of people. Supply is the same setup except everyone wants ammo but they will run past heal packs with 2 bars of health like there is no tomorrow.

I was 9 points shy of getting my Legion of Merit ribbon today, I was the MEC chopper pilot on Sharqi most of the map. I had a nub pilot while I was gunner so I only got like 14 kills but with me piloting he got 42. Stupid asshats.

Ok, so I played BF2SF last night...and it's frustrating. It was so freakin dark on this map (had a submarine out in the water) that I had a hard tiem seeing anything. What did I do? I became commander where it didn't matter what I saw. I guess I need to read the instruction sheet on this game. My stats haven't updated yet, though...

LA_MERC_Diesel
December 3rd, 2005, 07:35 AM
ok for those SF players they key is to play the good maps Tech
look for Surge, Warlord, mass destruction, all good daylight maps with lots of fun.
the night maps are crazy and there are a couple good ones, but for the most part the night ops are tooo crazy, although if you want to play them make sure you are on a 32 man server playing the large 64 man maps and it is not nearly as crazy.
And there are so cool Ribons and badges to acquire. :)

LA_MERC_LaTech
December 3rd, 2005, 07:56 AM
Well, I got the assault basic and vet last night...but my stats didn't update and I didn't actually receive the badge. I'll be patient and "wait and see". I know there are some issues with some people updating...I must be one of them.

LA_MERC_Diesel
December 3rd, 2005, 08:25 AM
now when you say update do you mean on your BFHQ or on BF2S?

LA_MERC_LaTech
December 3rd, 2005, 08:44 AM
BF2S. Actually, I've tried for the last half hour to play BF2 (so I can't see BFHQ), but can't connect to the account server at all. I may end up uninstalling and reinstalling...again...sometime today. Very frustrated.

Biggs
December 3rd, 2005, 08:50 AM
uninstalling the hax might be helpful.

Biggs
December 3rd, 2005, 09:00 AM
andy,
i usually only worry about my k/d, all those other badges and stuff are fun but i really dont try to hard to get them...notice i am still missing a basic badge here and there.

oh and i actually looked at my stats today and if anyone was wondering....i am ranked the 112th best engi in the game and 160th best pilot....

I finally got my vet knife. I ended up having to play on a very dark SF map to get it. Oh yeah Worm was a few of the kills that got me there, sorry big worm. Kinda funny I snuck in on the server he was playing and giged him. We was like "WTF That SOB Andyco.......Oh Hey Andy what are you doing here, LOL." When I finally paired up with him we led our team to domination. Woot woot, good job worm, even with your 400 ping you played. That's true grit.

Biggs
December 3rd, 2005, 08:08 PM
i quit playing bf period....i cant get a jet cause i get tk'd every friggin time i try...yea i let the guy who got there first have it ...i am nice so if u have been waiting i let u go.....but no one lets me go...i get tked....f that....i quit.

I saw the price of serves has started to go down, one guy was offering $128/mo
so we nedd to start a new poll of who wants to pay so we can figure out how much we need to do.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 5th, 2005, 07:14 AM
AS stated last time, I'm in for a server. I'll go 20 a month. AT that rate we only need 6 peeps. We have more than that. It would be nice to have our own server. It would help Biggs too. You could warn the tk'er and say I let you have it but if you kill me when its my turn "YOU'RE OUTTA HERE" Ahh to have admin rights again, woohoo!

LA_MERC_goose
December 5th, 2005, 08:19 AM
I could throw a good $10 a month, $20 on a good month.

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
December 5th, 2005, 09:12 AM
I can definately do $10 a month with a possible $20. Most likely I would pay in a lump sum since it's a pain to mail you guys money every month or use paypal every month. I've actually thought that since at $10 a month it equals nearly the server price, to just setup the damn server and pay for the first month myself and just rotate each month as to who pays. But $10 a month just seems better than $140 all in one shot.

I'd also rather one of the server gurus had the intial setup so they can give admin rights and tell us all how to use it. Without a nub like me having to try and figure it out by meself. Probably isn't all that hard though.

Biggs
December 5th, 2005, 10:27 AM
oh great...know if we get a server then u guys will kick me and just let everyoneelse tk me for vehicles......bahh....ask me again tommorrow, as i hate the game right now.

-> as I understand it, we get it free until January.

Biggs
December 5th, 2005, 03:46 PM
i dunno about u guys but i think a 32-40 player server might be the best way to go. most 64 player servers i played on have been iradically laggy and 64 is a lot of players...i think, i know some of u agree, that 64 player maps on 40/32 player server are bad arse.

Biggs
December 5th, 2005, 03:54 PM
we could also install quarter machines on peoples computers so when they load on to our server they have to put 2 quarters in the machine for 1 round of play.

this would not only be a great idea but would give LAMERC a revenue making outlet.

I didn't like that idea when my wife suggested it and I really don't like it now! :tosser


32 - 50 player servers seem to do better for me than the 64 player servers - but then again, i R lame.

LA_MERC_Diesel
December 5th, 2005, 04:22 PM
LMAO, yeah goose we need to find the price of a 32 man server...they are the best, and then you can play either the 64 or 32 man maps depending on the map...that is a great price as those ran well over 200 a few months ago.
we must look..I will get the second month if we do ex's plan.

Another theory if we do my plan is to have people that are willing to pay lum sums pay for the first few months that way people who want to split it up have time to save up the l00t. Or as I said I'll just send a year's worth of payments to whomever does the billing. I've also seen that some Game Server Providers will send bills to multiple clan members to help solve the money issues. That way we could get each person his own bill every month, might be a limit on the amount of bills they will send out though.

It was $165 a month for a 32 man Ranked server with VOIP at www.trinitygames.com. I think a 40 man server playing the 64 player maps is the most fun. Longer rounds so you can amass points plus usually enough vehicals for most of the players. While a cheaper server is better I think we should all play on one to two of their servers to check for lag/latency issues. We don't want a server that most of us have a high ping on. Also when you get the prices of servers make sure it has VOIP.

I'm up for either, I just want my own server so I don't get messages like I did last night. "LA_MERC_Andyconda is being kicked, REASON: Arguing with an admin". I can't help it they can't see things my way.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 6th, 2005, 07:37 AM
OK, enough talk. I just got permission to help with the server in a big way. I can put up more than 20 a month. On good months I can put up 50, 80, 100, or even pay the month. NOW, this cuts into Andy's beer money so you guys better realize how much he loves you. Everyone sound off with what they can contribute and lets get a consensus on how many man server and I'll whip out the plastic.

I'm good for $20 a month consistantly - more during months I get a 'bonus'

I say a 40 - 50 slot server.

Ok guys please check this out with me, it sounds too good to be true, so due some research.

www.teamspeakmods.com
it says $85/mo for a ranked BF2 server, I so want to jump on this and will happily give the money today if Onji can get it set up :stick

please provide feedback asap

LA_MERC_goose
December 6th, 2005, 08:26 AM
I see $85 for a 32 man server and $104 for a 40 man server.

<a href="http://www.uglgames.com/modules.php?name=Games&file=bf2" target-"_blank">UGL</a> has a 32 for $72.80 with the promo and $91 for a 40 with the promo code (Don't pay attention to the prices listed on the page, they change once you enter the coupon code).

Neither are VOIP though

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 6th, 2005, 09:51 AM
Checked it out. It does look good. Lets go with the 40 man server and set up with 64 players maps. We have teamspeak so VOIP is not required but they did say they were working to get those functions working.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 7th, 2005, 11:28 AM
It's not coming up AL. You might have played on an unranked server. The next time you boot up BF2 make sure when you fo to multiplayer that you filter out unranked servers. There are about 2500 ranked servers now and ours is ranked. You only need one kill to start logging stats so the minute you join the MERC server and get a kill your stats will start tracking and we can add you to the BF2 stats page. See you on soon.

LA_MERC_Andyconda

Besides that reminds me Mike, Give Onji you information so he can fix your sig since you apparently are never going to do it. Just send him your BF2 number and you tehsig.com login and pass. If he has time and you sweet talk him like I do, by wispering sweet nothings into his ear. (Not to just speak for Darren)

I give up. There's no way I can catch Toby or Jerry. They're logging like 4 freakin hours a day. I was thousands of points ahead a week ago and now I'm just a speck of dust in their tail wind. Well at least I'm ahead of Robby and Al.

OK AL, when can you get on again so we can get you at least 100 ponts. All you have to do is ride in the black hawk for one map and you will get that easy.

dangit...I played for at least an hour last night....still a no-show on the stats page :(

I captured a flag, got about 3-5 kills and got killed too many times to remember...lol

One thing that is really different than CS (that's the only other game I've ever played besides playstation stuff) is that the maps are huge. and It's really hard to see the enemy....I mean the guys are on top of me before I knew anyone was there. I guess I'll get used to that. Half the time I have no idea where the shots are coming from....lol

December 15th, 2005, 06:34 PM
Lol, just like cs Al don't get discouraged. We all started out slow. It takes time to number one learn maps and number two get use to the fire rate and accuracy of the weapons. Also remeber you have no unlocks and as they come you get a little bit better weapons.

December 17th, 2005, 12:20 PM
One of the things that I do in CS and BF2 is a)listen to determine direction, kinda need headphones though b)look for bullet hits because rocks and walls will chip when hit. That way I can figure out a general direction. But knowing the maps is always a great help for finding those nublet snipers and all out campers.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 19th, 2005, 12:03 PM
Very True X. Just like in CS AL you have to memorize the map. Play on them enough and you will. Difference here is that the maps in BF2 are way bigger than the ones in CS. You were on the other team last time I played when you were around so I didn't get t help you as much as I wanted. Let me know when you plan to get back on and I'll get on so I can show more of the ropes. Also you jsut need to get some play time to get used to it. YOu know what they say. Practice makes perfect.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 20th, 2005, 11:51 AM
Hey Darren. Since the tube is such a hot topic. Is there any way we can have a section that updates our Tube kills and maybe post it on the front page. I know I know. Its probably a lot of work so by all means if its something you don't want to do or have the time for just say, NO. Just thought it was a neat idea.

LA_MERC_Onji
December 20th, 2005, 01:51 PM
the stats package they released cant do that just yet, they are working on getting more detail to show up on the 1st page tho. I'll keep an eye on it.

December 27th, 2005, 02:26 PM
Hey i had a question it seemed like some people had in there signatures. the type of kit they play. is there sort of like list o something to show say this guy is good with jets and this guy is anti tank etc.
The reason i ask is i was wondering as a team do we need any role/kit covered.
like do we need more medics or support. so i can start building up my guy in one of those professions etc?

LA_MERC_Diesel
December 27th, 2005, 02:52 PM
Not too much daed, just try to fiqure out what suits you the best, and we adapt.

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
December 27th, 2005, 07:29 PM
Yeah this isn't WOW, you can switch professions everytime you die or pick up a new kit from the nub you just kilt. Ofcourse there is the unlocks which are better then the regular guns, except for the stupid M-24 can't see crap in the scope. So you just have to figure out what kit/guns you like and go from there.

Most of us have been playing for a good while and have all the unlocks already so we can play any kit reasonably well. But if you want some advice be an engineer get in a tank and throw down the pwnage kung-fu style! Being an engineer with no armor isn't much fun but before you spawn in you can see if there is any armor available for you to roll in, that's when I pick engineer. Another piece of advice for tanking, really this is from Biggs the Tank Master, keep moving even when you are taking a flag and don't be afraid to get outta dodge and repair your tank where you probably won't get kilt.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
December 27th, 2005, 11:45 PM
Yeah, Daed. Play them all to figure out what you do best. We'll go from there.

Daedelus
December 28th, 2005, 10:47 AM
ok thanks for the advice. i finally got my first promotion to private first class last night not to bad 2 day in and a rank woot. so far i like spec op & engineer a few times ill do sniper depending on the map and medic if my team needs one. i like to respawn as a anti tank if my base is being captured by vehicles but it dose seem to take a lot of shots 3+ to get a tank(i can understand going for the week spots etc) but i swear so guys get me with 1 shot it seems haha.

Since this is the BF2 Stat thread I thought I would update the "Tube Wars" Or what I affectionately call "The Toby Aggrevator gun" before they nerf our beloved weapon. Here are the Tube kills as of 1/16/06 at 10:20 a.m. cst.

1. BS------------------1696 (Lord Tuber)
2. Onji-----------------1007 (Onjisan Tubisan)

5. Wyrm---------------258
6. Roselind-------------205 (The talking tube) Please set push to talk sweetheart
7. Dirge---------------187
8. X------------------179
9. T4g3t--------------101 (The Anti Tuber)
10. Skitz---------------72

13. Toetag------------14

Lol, but it sure is funny to watch X drive by with all those red skull and cross bones all over the humvee. Then to watch him drive off into the sunset barreling into an enemy CP to see a large explosion and watch the humvee go one way, x's corpse another, and 2 to 3 bad guys tumbling through the air. I like to ride in X's Humvee for half the trip. The plasteec sure smells funny. I tell him to hang a pine air freshner but he just laughs and says "DO you know how much it would cost to hand a pine air freshner in each Humvee before I kamakazi just so you can smell good for half the ride. Second thought , get the **** out of my humvee" to which I reply no. Then he shows me the clicker for the c4. I get out.

Ever since I blew up Dirge a while back, not my fault since he jumped in with me and I had to make a quick decision to bail out 100 feet down the road to take out a loaded down jeep going the other way, I started to use the bailout command. You know, try to be curteous to the poor nubs who jumped in with me.

I've also found that a great way to comandeer(spelling) a vehical is to drop a few sticks of plasteek on the hood. The occupants of the vehical tend to get out in a hurry.

I don't always die while car bombing Andy. Just most of the time. If I can get in a buggy there is about a 85% that I'll live. The other ones just go a little slower so I'm closer to the detonation point and likely to go flying through the air to signal to all friendlies that there is no longer an enemy threat in the area.

11. Goose--------------33 (Stressed Tuber) Calm down big guy, you're doing fine

Sorry, I have a hard time accepting it when I get my ass handed to me

Hey, all of those are from the regular assault 'nade launcher and everytime I use it, it's for those 20 - 20 feet shots, everytime I think about dropping one close it kills me too. I hate the shot me from 3 feet away and not die crap. I was getting good the other night launching it from one spawn to another and getting defending flag kills - that rocks!

Oh yeah, car bombs are killer! :D litterally

I know what you mean buddy. We (or at least I) don't take any offense to you blowing off steam when getting your ass kicked. I'm not very copesetic either when its being doled out to you via a silver platter. That's why I make sure I have at least a 6 pack in the fridge before I load up BF2. Woohoo.

hey iam trying to figure out how to equipe my new f2000 thingy when i got sgt. it showed as a unlock for i think assault so i selected that and the jack hammer for the anti tank roll but cant figure out how to select it. it acts like it will only cycle threw the g-3? and the m-16/m203 only no fn2000? how do i fix this. i also tryed to see if i could use my second unlock to unlock the flash bang as on the bfhq screen it shows it locked, how do you get it to use in the regular bf maps?
Is it a sever thing weather or not you can use it?? thanks

you have to unlock the G3 first... then you will be able to unlock the F2000 after that... takes 2 unlocks to get to teh F2000

Daedelus
January 19th, 2006, 05:53 PM
did that, unlocked the g3 at corporal in antisipation of getting fn-2000 at sgt. still can figure how to load it or pick it in game.

January 20th, 2006, 07:13 AM
did that, unlocked the g3 at corporal in antisipation of getting fn-2000 at sgt. still can figure how to load it or pick it in game.

so when your in game, and you click the little up and down arrows to choose the g3, did you click it once more to choose the f2000?

LA_MERC_Andyconda
January 20th, 2006, 07:29 AM
Also, don't you have to have SPecial Forces to get the F2000. Do you have BF2:SF. Then like Darren said you click the arrow on the assault kit twice to get to the F2000. The when you hit the number 4 key and go to Grenade launcher mode you willsee that you kill via the F2000 GL. Woohoo. Let the tubing begin.

Daedelus
January 20th, 2006, 09:04 AM
yeah stupid me it was there this whole time i dont know what i was doing maybe i didnt hit the down up arrows enough but its there pretty nice gun part too. havent noticed any diffrence in the tube part yet sort of feels the same as the m-203 but i just need to keep practacing with it i guese. of and i did get the flash bang in my kit for assault oh i love useing those and then rush ina kill all the guys blinded, and works pretty well on the tanks etc. as they roll up on you throw one around the corner etc. and hope some one on my team gets them.

when firing the tube do you aim a little high at them or just dead on or at there feet? maybe it depends on how close the enemy is huh?

LA_MERC_BS
January 20th, 2006, 09:33 AM
The farther away you are the more you have to lob it over, but I always try to land it at their feet. The way I got used to the arch on it was I found a supply box at the main base (theres always one there next to the arty gun) I just sat there for a while just practicing lobbing it at difference distances. The crate will reload you for a while. My favorite distance is 3 feet away

Lol, good choice Mike. Last night while playing with us Tman jumped from a global score of 7 to 25. This now more than doubles Al's score of 12. Next on the hit list for Tman is Yankee at 800+. I estimate it will take him 4 months at this rate but hey. he's 5 and has time and skills. Get'em son.

Yeap, he did it. Onji the little man has jumped past 100 points all by himself. And when I say by himself I mean he boots up the computer and all by himslef. Does everything by himself. Refreshes server list by himself and actually joins and leaves servers at will to join the specific map he wants. Guess what his favorite is. WAKE ISLAND. Any way, Darren can you add him to the stats page. Thanks. Go Son!

This thread is titled BF2S for Battlefield 2 Stats. So I thought I would mention that my son has lost his mind in BF2 stats now. Last night he got a badge, a ribbon, and a medal. He was screaming with joy so loud the wife got pissed. Needless to say he got the Basic Armor Badge, The Airborne Ribbon, and of course a purple heart. Now remember he just turned 5 and started playing online only like 3 days ago. Needless to say he's now a stat *****. He makes me pull up the stats page to see his name and score. He was noticably upset at being at the bottom of the list, lol. He vowed to score more to get higher. "My little stat *****", I'm so proud.

tman is da man. that kid is a feaking genious.

when the kid uses a vehicle he is an engi...and he even pulls up close to your armor to repair your dying arse.......holyshiots!

only problem is he only play USMC, the kid bleeds red whit and blue.....but he is a really good squad member, as he always spawns on the squadleader.....he even understands how to revive people......wtf! i swear he plays like 100 times better then most of the nubs we play against......

lets get that kid in a j10....

LA_MERC_Andyconda
February 21st, 2006, 11:16 AM
LMFAO. Yeah he doesn't like being chinese or MEC. He says their guns suck, LMFAO. He actually can fly pretty well too. He just likes armor and ground pounding better. He is defianetly a tank man. I can't believe he got his basic armour badge all ready. He's 5 and has only played for 3 days. And all his stats are exactly that. His stats. I don't help him at all. Other than yelling from the other room things like. Join Squad 5. Or follow me to this flag, or Get in. He loves to be a medic and follow you around so when you die he can hit you with the shock paddles. He really loves the knife and pistol rounds we do know too.

But, enough of me bragging about my little child genious. Did anyone realize that Brent has more gold medals than like the next top 5 players in MERC combined. I'm going to go ahead and say it. "****ing Hacker"
