Can't add any game to favorites at all. Doesn't save any recent games I play in history just some of the first ones I played in the beginning. If I want to play on the AT server I have to search through the server list which really sucks.

I have exactly the same problem. The same 2 servers are always in my history. If I try to add a favorite the thing just hangs and does nothing. You would think adding a favorite server is something easy.

Played for 3 hours. I started one of the rounds out with 11/0 KD. XD It was funny how many people I killed in about 90 seconds.

I just went 21/3. Tell me your names so I can put a a few tank shells into your skulls.

has anyone else experienced rendering errors at the beginning of the "Crack the Sky" mission when firing the MG from the helicopter?

The an-94 is just insane. I get killed annoyingly fast by that gun. But wow, I went from being pretty decent in the beta (generally near the top of my team) to rather mediocre in the retail. Dunno if I just keep getting unlucky with crappy teams or what. Definitely doesn't help when the other team seems to have the better weapons.

all right, i'm buying it on steam now. it better be as good as people make it out to be. if it's not, i'll hold all of AT PC Gaming accountable!! :awe:

Maybe i'll consider this my b-day preset to myself (bday is 3/11)

You know, I really miss the confused icon from the old forums, always made me laugh, but I think I found its replacement and it is the :awe: icon! every time i see it now it makes me smile.

finished single player... it was meh. seemed clunkly and unpolished, and tries way too hard to be MW2.

multiplayer is a mess with the server browser not even working.

Now I can't even see the AT server in the browser. In favorites it's just grayed out.

That means the EA master servers are out. Again.

Great. No wonder why none of my veretan stuff was available. So it seems that if you're already connected to a game, EA servers going out doesn't affect you.

You have it through Steam? If so exit it and restart it and you should be fine.

man, they better put in a way to get into a server via direct ip. i would really like to see the #s ea is claiming that is causing this mass disruption. anybody have it on a console too and is this an issue on either psn or live?

I found that if I got the full server list, then tried to add the server as a favorite, it didn't work. BUT, if I canceled the full server list, then put [ATOT] (or whatever) in the server name filter, then Searched, when just that one server came up on the list, Add Favorite worked almost instantly!

Anyone have the numbers on how magnum ammo modifies your gun's stats? I can't decide if I want to use it or the assault rifle/LMG upgrade. Also, does magnum ammo affect pistols as well?

minmaster · Mar 5, 2010

only dice can make server browsers WORSE than their games from 3-5 years ago.

I never even bothered starting the campaign. Its all about multiplayer.

AntiFreze · Mar 5, 2010

Is there any word on if there will be a demo released? I was in the beta, but would love to continue playing that level now...

Threads merged.

I think it has to do with - 1st - starting out with the basic gun with no unlocks. I had been playing for so long with a standard kit I had forgotten how to use the first assault rifle well. 2nd- Some teams are just bad. I think there is a wider than usually skill gap because of the beta. If you get stuck on a team where no one played and and are playing a team that was all in the Beta you are screwed

Wow.. I'm in the same boat. Something in the Beta just clicked for me with the guns... Retail feels different and I haven't figured it out yet. Granted I'm only an hour or so in.

To it's credit the retail game plays much smoother than the Beta ever did, which is great.

Guju: I have a question for you guys, what are the main differences we are going to see between the PC demo and the beta we have right now.

Patrick: No, I think there is a misconception here, I don’t know where that came from. We have not planned to have a PC demo at all. The demo is just for the consoles.

Buy the game, and you can play that level all you want.

Looking at the leader boards how the hell do I get a 3:1 KD ratio? I'm at 1.4 right now and I thought I was good.

The assault class is not the assault class until you get the AN-94.

That gun is just silly.

Heh. I'm pretty sure this gun has the 2nd highest damage per second, the VSS has the most but a small clip and more spread.
