[QUOTE=Tac Error;27448867]Well, 46 years is rather large time period. You've got the classic German Central Front stuff with full on mechanized combined arms combat, proxy wars in places like Rhodesia and Angola in the 60s-80s, USSR vs Japan for the Kuriles, and the Arab-Israeli Wars. I'm just touching the surface here.[/QUOTE]
It's possible though. Each map is it's own conflict, with little-to-no story in between them.
The problem would come from the large amount of modeling, texturing, and voices they'd have to do to have like 20 different factions.

That would be great for a dedicated modteam trying to make every conflict from 1945-1991, but I hope you like waiting for something that would take longer that DNF to release.
It would be awesome though. One map you're attacking a NATO rear airbase as part of a Soviet airborne operation and next you're playing good old conquest with South Africans vs SWAPO.
DICE, please ... PLEASE DO NOT FUCK THIS UP.
[QUOTE=TheTalon;27447668]I hate Punkbuster so much. It's absolutely fucking useless and a headache to everyone
It does, however, have ONE feature that I like, and that's the Clientside screenshot feature... an Admin can tell Punkbuster to take a screenshot of what any player on the server is seeing, and if he's Aimbotting or wallhacking or what have you, it's just like the cheater hit Print Screen himself...
...Then again when it turns out you aren't cheating the Admins just say your screenshot is corrupted and kick you anyway so fuck that server
The best Anti Cheat is still Server Admins[/QUOTE]
Are you joking? What is so bad about Punkbuster? I've had no problems with it, yet I see people getting banned all the time, coincidence? I think not.
[QUOTE=zeldar;27447105]Your feelings are wrong.[/QUOTE]
Oh great you have a leaked copy or something? Mind sharing it?
Remember, the game is coming out on consoles too, the best approach is the Yahtzee approach.

If they whitelisted the overlay I'm sure a hack could pose as the overlay and cheat that way.

So that makes it okay to kick players who own it on Steam?
Just don't use the overlay?
So it's more reasonable to for people to stop using the overlay than for them to fix / get better cheat protection?

Don't get excited about anything in life to prevent disappointment at all cost.
I've taken a real strong notion about playing either Battlefield 2 or Bad Company 2. Can't be arsed with installing/updating though. How popular is BF2 now? specifically on steam as I might buy the complete pack?

The MEC is a respectable military force, like NATO, not Islamist insurgents.

Overlay is shit anyway, there isn't the game it hasn't had troubles with.
Inlcuding HL2.
[QUOTE=Binladen34;27433575]Simmilar to me and BF2. I bought 4 retail boxes. The 2005 CD edition (First retail box edition), the 2006 Deluxe DVD box set, the 2006 Deluxe CD Set, and the 2008 Complete Collection box. I gave all but the 2005 edition to friends.
As for 2142, I couldn't buy a retail box, so I had to get it on EADM.[/QUOTE]
Same with me; I bought the 2005 CD edition, lost it a year later (I found it this year, one of the disks is scratched though), so I bought the DVD, let somebody "borrow it", they never returned it, pirated it until SF came out, bought the Deluxe one, my dad took it away from me because he thought I was "addicted", got the Complete Collection, spilled orange juice on the serial code, stopped playing it for a bit, so I bought the Complete Collection again.
And I just bought the Complete Collection for my friend. :3:

The amount of hacks ive seen with PB Screentshot detection is funny, i saw his aimbot and ESP flicker on and off, i asked him what it was and he just said "PB took a screenshot, hack turned off" and went on his jolly way.
So, its compleatly useless really.
But the overlay is so useful :saddowns:

It happened with BC2, and you know it's true for many games, when devs get lazy
Give us mod support, otherwise BF3 is a no go.
But they did say frostbite has horrendously hard to compile maps and model for, but oh well.

BFBC2 was a game made for console ported to pc jsut to get another BF game on pc again.
BF3 is a game that's being made for pc, aswell as console, think BF2/BF: Modern Combat.

I could not agree with you anymore. It seems like people forget that this is Battlefield 3 and not Bad Company/Modern Combat.
Want to know a reason why Bad Company 1 wasn't released on PC? Because it was made for consoles.
Bad Company 2 was released on the PC, probably to tide us over for Battlefield 3. Just my 2 cents.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;27456614]No and yes in that order. You are still being a stupid fuck.[/QUOTE]
Maybe not so much with BC2.
This discussion is so talented at going in circles that it's managed to do it 5 times on the same page. MOVE ON SPAMMERS!
Bought me BF2142 on Mac because windows is bugging out in bootcamp and I can't remember my 2005 email to get my account details. Fresh start me thinks.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;27454815]Yes. How fucking hard is it?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, okay sure.
Devs can't fix their shit, so we have to come up with a makeshift fix for it (and sacrifice the ability to communicate) instead.
Totally reasonable.
If the game is also released on consoles, the developer's time and money will not go only into the PC version, but will be split in 3. So yes, it coming out on consoles does diminish the PC version. By how much we don't know, but it does.

Who cares.
They'll also have a larger budget thanks to bigger potential money earned.
