We actually had a moment of silence for ya the other night.  It's not that you were missed, we ran out of targets.

And when he is around, we never miss him

ETA: Oh yeah, now that Christmas is done with and most of the plans for New Years are solid (this will involve frying a turkey, an excessive amount of beer, a large pile of explosives, and a 37mm grenade launcher), I'll actually have some time to play for a change.

I have the week off, so I spent some time today on the server, which was empty.  

But, I took advantage of that to snag a few MVP and Ace Squad ribbons.  

On a somewhat serious note, I did also take advantage of the solitude to fly choppers a bit.  I got good enough to be able to hover over a flag station and cap it!  Those who have had the misfortune of being a crash test dummy passenger by accident on one of my flights knows that this is quite an improvement!  heh.  Now, if I can just learn to turn faster without barrelrolling into the nearest building, I might be of some use in a chopper.  But I doubt it.

The rudder is your friend. You get a hell of a lot more rate of turn out of yaw than roll. You can also stop a heli on a dime by leveling the nose and kicking full rudder until the nose comes around 180°.

I can fly the hell out of the choppers as long as no one is shooting at me

That is me in a nutshell... if a new BF3 expansion pack adds Newschopper 2 then I'd be able to fly that thing like a mother. Fly, dodge AND shoot? Not so much.

I was doing pretty good flying patterns with the Huey and letting the doors do the gunning but my skull seems to attract sniper bullets doing that.

I need to make the time for some creative welding so I can put my joystick and throttle on the desk in such a way as to be able to use them. Once that's done I'll be able to do some really crazy shit... Ok, I do that now, but I'll actually survive it for a change.

Last night was great. The 32 man server seems to be the best way to go.

I had a good time playing against Jatobi. I just ignore the hack accusations now, or go with it and tell them it's 12.99 a day.

I think we'll be sticking with the 32 man server as it seems to be the most popular at the moment.  Be sure to get a mic and hop on teamspeak if you haven't already. It really does make working together as a team more fun!

TS3 Server Info: ARFCOM.teamspeak.cc:9204

Glad you guys are having fun :).

Getting called a hacker is common place now.  PC gaming has had a downfall in the past, oh idk, say 6 or 7 years?  It used to be if you were good, people were like wow, awesome, and liked playing against you so they could improve.  Now it's all "Hacks! /ragequit."  I'm by far not the best player, but I do consider myself to be good, and sometimes it's a compliment to get called a hacker :).  Sometimes it's not though.  Those guys that were in the server the other night really got on my nerves lol.

Anyways, just got my account activated here, thought I'd make a post =P.  We need to get more people active in the BF3 community.  Once we get roughly 5~ people in the server, it fills up constantly.  

Don't forget to sign up on our website, if you run into issues with it, let me know.

Yup, was attempting to screw with your brain Friday night at Zombie Camp. OFFacist was there, so I got out the iPad, logged into the server, and commanded you to deliver me beer. However, you were AFK, so it failed utterly.

That, too, but it's also been a bit insane around here lately. Winter normally plays on a different TOR server, and I'm usually roped into helping some local guys on their server. But there's also this:

Especially when it's someone else's

That's me behind a friend's M82, and I don't think there's a person on the planet that doesn't blink when one of those goes off. Shooting from the ground isn't too bad since the bipod grabs the dirt and sucks up some of the recoil. Shooting off a polyethylene table, however, is brutal. The thing kicks like a small truck since the feet just slide on the table.

Definitely. One trick is to sandbag the feet of the bipod, or just shoot off a fairly thick pack.

My advice for anyone shooting an M82: CLOSE YOUR MOUTH! The pic shows the dust cloud, and that was off a table! It's a damned sandstorm if you shoot off the ground.

I think my RAM might be fucked up. Ran a memory diagnostic tool and it's saying there's a problem with my hardware. Hope that doesn't mean I have to replace anything...
