It sounds like there's so much bullshit to get it working on a PC I'm glad I got it for the 360.

So they release this game both on the consoles and the PC and all they changed were the graphics? What did I miss? Did the consoles made a huge leap forward in performance?
In addition of better graphics, the PC version has bigger maps and 64 players, where the console versions only have 24.

And no, it doesn't really seem to have any more problems than any other new PC release :E

Why are you two trying to turn this into a platform fanboy argument? I never said the console was actually better all I said was I was glad to get it for the 360. You can harp on about your big maps and 64 players but that has nothing to do with the point I was making. Origin/Battlelog is fucking this game up for a lot of people if its not for you, then great have fun.

Has anyone got the EOD bot yet? That thing is a good laugh trying to sneak up on MCOM stations, I like to wait beside them with it in a dark corner when defending as well. No one seems to notice it and they rush up to the MCOM to place a charge while I drive up behind him with the bot and stick the repair tool in their back ;D ah so many ways to be a bastard in this game :)

It sounds like there's so much bullshit to get it working on a PC I'm glad I got it for the 360. I'm really enjoying it, it feels more like playing Medal of Honour(the new one) than BC2 which is a good thing imo. Wasn't too sure about the vehicle unlock system when I heard about it, but I gotta say it works pretty well rewarding those who put the time & effort into it rather than pimping a rifle with twenty attachments.

It doesn't take that long to unlock the basic stuff like smoke/flares either so you don't feel handicapped for very long. Vehicles do seem underpowered though, very easy to take them down on your own on foot(even air) which is dissappointing it's not a gamebreaker but it can get irksome.

I think the thing that surprised me most was co-op. Really well done except for a few glitches/blunders, but on the whole super enjoyable mode. Me and a buddy were playing the co-op vip extraction mission which will postively make you feel badass as you headshot/stab your way through the building with your team mate shooting out the security cameras at the same time, great fun! Just a shame it got ruined on the PC as that would have been my platform of choice, still will enjoy it on the 360.

Still waiting as well for someone form 762 to explain why they haven't changed their server names yet, and I know their active on these boards because I've seen posts from them in this very thread.

[762]RANKED #1 FH2 v2.4 [PURE]

That name is deliberately misleading when seen on the server list. There is nothing in it that indicates you're joining a server that uses its own stat/ranking system. Quite the opposite in fact, it implies you are joining an officially stat tracked server which is just wrong. I appreciate they have a problem losing their ranks and stats and starting over but misleading players to keep your server filled is a low blow.

Thats a point, because you ask in a nice and kindly way and don't insult other people. Maybe someone of the 762 guys can give you a clear answer, because I can't speak for them, nor I am willed to do this. I simply speak for me. Some guys here twisted this point. Although I explained the point about "pure" and "ranked" - the servers had always this terms since I played there also before 2.4. They don't call it "official ranked" or whatever. Maybe you guys, who  have problems with this notification should contact the the guys of Hslan and the other servers to put the term "official ranking" in the server names. If that helps you, ok.

And you have to show me, where this server name is misleading: [762]RANKED #1 FH2 v2.4 [PURE]. Its shows, that there is 762 ranking. #1 shows that is one of two servers and FH 2.4. is the running game. "Pure" shows, that there are only played official maps. Where is this misleading. It simply gives the most important information about the server itself.

Ok shitmaker I'll explain why I think it's misleading having 'pure' in the server title. Since I've been playing multiplayer games, any server I have seen with 'pure' in the server name implies that the server is running the game/mod with unmodified content, playing it as the devs intended. Since 2.4 came out this simply does not apply to the 762 servers because FH2 2.4 came with its own stats ranking system. This is part of the content of 2.4 and to use something else of your own making is to modify the content.So they are not running a pure server they are running a server with modified content which makes the 'pure' tag misleading to average joe player.

That may take awhile Archimonday, no doubt the police will have to carry out a risk assessment, Health & safety checks and make sure that their not infringing on the human rights of the perpetrators before they politely ask them to stop causing trouble and go home.

There's people dying in Libya and Syria right now just because they want some basic freedoms & rights that are taken for granted in the West. What are they up in arms for here? Fucking plasma tv's & Playstations this country is such a joke.

Why cant the 762 guys just drop the 'FH2 RANKED PURE' from their server names? Would save a lot of trouble and confusion for everyone if it had a straightforward name that clearly showed it wasn't official stats. Surprised after a couple of weeks past release they haven't done this.

So I was just wondering what maps the german AA halftrack is on? I've only seen the transport version and was really looking forward to trying out the AA one as it's one of my favourite things to do in FH, anyone used it yet?
