Tail lights don't work. Cars almost plough into the back of me several times on the trip home.
Sigh.

Give a man a fish and you can feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he could live
to challenge your fishing license monopoly.
Give the man luxury consumer goods and hook the ignorant bastard.

BF3 installed.
Don't play, cook and eat dinner first :>
Watch an ep of Pioneer One.
Decide to load up.

Localisation depends on akamai.
Cool.

*allow akamai.net*
Suddenly: servers!

Oh, no. That's not the issue, it's just intermittant.
500: server error!

***
Join a server.
After loading, hear voices for RU side aren't in Russian. Click options to see if I can rectify this. Seems like I can't. What a bag of gagging dicks. Suddenly: kicked for idle timeout. After about 30 seconds in server. WTF
Oh well, was about to ragequit anyway because no authentic language voiceovers. WHAT THE DICK!?

[winter]

Not having a good night are we mate? I'm the complete opposite, got on since getting home from work and only just stopped due to scheduled maintenance
has been running like a dream and heaps of fucking fun.

Fuck yeah.

[Pyromanik]

DO YOU WANT TO KEEP THESE DISPLAY SETTINGS?

yes.

NOPE.

[Pyromanik]

SETTINGS CHANGED: DO YOU WANT TO SAVE SETTINGS?

no.

TOO FUCKING BAD, SAVED ANYWAY!


ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

[Obble]

At least you won't be going for your 20repair points iar medal this BF.

[Pyromanik]

^ hey, I got that in the end. Repeatedly dom'd arty on wake ftw.

BF3?
This is better:

[Pyromanik]

I can't do it, I can't fucking handle it.

Voiceover guy sounds like a queer german trying to get into my back pocket.

I was hoping it was going to be beta only.
Instant purchase regret :<

Every other BF game has had native voiceovers for the non english sides...
And apparently they recorded over 300 fucking VO's FOR "MAN DOWN" ALONE.

WHY NONE IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE!?

[Retardobot]

FML.

Aliens Vs. Predator is a crash-fest.
BRINK is a giant mess of ghosting even though it reports 100+ FPS.

Lets try SNIPER: Ghost Warrior.

[Obble]

How bout reading a book.
:distant:

[Retardobot]

Books are for circle-jerkers tbh.

[Obble]

YEAH

[Retardobot]

Hey Xeno.

Sorry for not getting anything back to you.

I'll flick you some concepts in the weekend. Work has been ultra busy.

[TofuEater]

I come here to get away from BFQQ. maybe try posting in another forum.

[Pyromanik]

hahahaha, trolling the fuck out of BF3 players is so easy.

Join server.
"Game is so disappoint"
63 angry nerds bite the bait.

It's great to see that 64p servers can't actually handle 64 players. LAG LIKE CRAZY
Round ends: suddenly everyone dropped.

This game is great!

About the only thing that's actually made me QQ is the lack of native voices for VO, and that their 'large' maps aren't actually that big at all.
Sure it connect like shit, plays like shit, has a yawn story and you get stuck in checkpoints all the time... but meh. Patches will come.

I don't think it's socially acceptable to quote yourself. Of course you're going to give your own product a good review!

Haha yea, I thought that was weird as. No idea why they've put that up there.

[Obble]

Because they can, pretty fucking obvious.

My lol of the morning, ye olde dad is off to a dental conference, and because he doesn't eat meat, he has to sit at a "special needs" table.

I'd love you to say that to the Rugby guys you helped with their book...go on, I dare you .
