    Then take B. It's hard, but a good enough team can do it. The bottleneck is what gives B a tactical advantage.

    That said, I find it's always easier to capture B first when you spawn above ground.

    More like impossible if the top side team is decent. They just have to to spray with support machine gunners and cover 3 entrance points, two of which are basically the same bottleneck. Today I was on a team that repeatedly took B (we started underground) but repeatedly lost it back. I have been on teams that took B and went on to take A, but it's uncommon.

    I can deal with support fire. Nade spams piss me off though.

    Yeah those suck. I was on a server today that didn't allow them and it made things a bit less ridiculous. But the support fire basically created a never-ending wall of bullets that you couldn't pass through. Have you played BF4?

    No. My friend couldn't even install it while I got stuck at the loading scene with weird textures. That pissed new off quite a lot. I even forgot to post because of it.

    Are you both on Win7/8 64? Also I don't remember seeing any servers outside the US. I wonder if the beta is localized by region.

    BF4 requires some beefy PC specs to play. My Bloomfield i7-930/Radeon 6970 runs poorly at high quality, but ok at medium. I don't know FPS count but it's low. My Haswell i7/GTX770 plays it great at high quality.

    I'm on W7 64. The Beta was available to me and the servers' pings looked pretty decent. I spawned below the map and had the loading screen overlayed on top so I wasn't able to evaluate performance at all.

    Lo and behold, it just happened. Topside team was owning with points A and B, then all of a sudden the other team took B, took C, then owned the topside team and won it. I was on the topside team .

    What I've noticed with the team that spawns topside is that once they are beaten back (lose A), they will resort to sniping from spawn and essentially get pinned there. Then there isn't enough ground support for the few assault members to take back and defeat is ensured.

    Is it just me, or are the "forum" and "front page" buttons swapped now? I always impulsively click the front page button whenever i want to get to the main forums page, and it's driving me insane.

    Haha, I have a habbit of clicking our banner to take me to the forum main page. If that got swapped on me I'd be a little annoyed as well.

    @Abdula: so that's what it was. I thought something was different, but I was still shown "new posts" - which was what I was after anyway, so I didn't pin it down.

    Yes and the today's posts button is gone, I keep clicking on private messages. Today's post and new posts were redundant though.

    I'm actually starting to get reaaalllly pissed off about the button arrangement now. It was set the other way for, what, 8 years now? Why change it?

    Not intentional, forum software update replaced the static navbar template with a new nav manager utility. It's pretty much exactly what I had wanted from 4.0, so I can't complain too much -- much less insane now. But it screwed with the ordering of things a bit, and I was trying to get it up and running on not enough sleep. Better?

    Yeah, that was one of those customizations that moved us away from the default that I hadn't captured at the navbar switch. Better now?

    My country decided it wanted to be racist and its people are posting anti-Haitian bullshit all over Facebook. Fuck this place.

    Bad relations overall, my country was enslaved by their hand for 30 years and currently a lot of them are trying to migrate illegally in here. Now some people are spreading some BS about Haitians trying to take over again even though they don't have the means or the numbers and theres no real evidence of this. Catholics are also attacking them claiming they are satanist and practice voodoo, apparently this country is not backwards enough.

    The biggest issue right now is that they cross the border illegally and doing work for a cheaper fee, disregarding the fact that Dominicans are doing exactly that in U.S.A. FUCKING HIPOCRITES.
