I think it is a specialisation you can chose for yourself, something about alternate weapons or such. Havent tried that out yet, so not sure.

The Nemesis is someone you've killed or has killed you 5 or more times in a row without dying yourself in the process.
Say he killed you 5 times, you then finally kill him, you'll get a pin for it.




Nemesis is someone that has killed you five times in the round - I don't think there's a limit on how many times he can die. (I've gone 23-20 in a round, and had a couple nemesis pins.) The Payback pin is what you get when you kill your nemesis.

Oh damn, they nerfed my CG. You have to literally land the enemy's feet to kill them right now. I'd rather use an RPG and have an all-round weapon now :)

On the other hand, post-patch game is fantastic. I haven't noticed any overpowered weapons atm, and people seem to be not leaning on a specific class.

Map Pack 3 Details:

Laguna Alta (Squad Rush)
Nelson Bay (Squad DM)
What? Where did you get that from? That would be ridiculous because hardly anybody is playing those two modes except maybe clans.

As for entirely new maps, sure they would be great and are necessary, but there's still much potential from the ones we have now in other modes. For example Laguna Alta or Atacame Desert could make for impressive Rush maps I think(much extended of course). Because if you compare Laguna Presa Conquest with LP Rush it's two totally different experiences / maps.

If you can actually play that is :mad:
After the patch, the game freezes up several seconds when i want to spawn, and after that freeze-up i have to wait for over 10 seconds before i finally spawn, and during that time my ingame body is already spawned but i cant do anything with it, but i CAN get killed :mad:
This is the case on every freaking server, and i'm by far not the only one with this problem. First problem BC2 gave me, but damn does it suck!

The worst is what they've done to some of the guns in the latest patch, I just can't believe the G3 got a nerf, it in no way was over powered in fact it could have done with a beefing up.

The balance feels totally whacked now, everything feels like it's firing rubber bullets to me (even moreso than before I mean).

It takes me about four clicks of the mouse to re-spawn. I click, game stops for a second, nothing happens. I click, game stops for a second, nothing happens. About the third or fourth click, I'll respawn.

Felt really laggy last night, too.

I also noticed that BFBC2 was using way more memory than before.

Does BFBC2 stay in memory after exiting the game for anyone else? It did that pre-patch and still does it. Not every time, but most of the time.

Nooooo, not the G3, it already was quite weak. :(

Noooo, not the CG. :( The whole point of the CG was that it was an all-round launcher, hopefully that isn't ruined now.

I don't have any problems with spawning though. None of that.

M1911 still performs the same I think, even though they said it would get a nerf.

Is the AN-94 still the same?

The AN-94 apparently has a beef but a small one, fore long range. Other than that I think it's the same.

I loaded up the game post patch and saw some new browser options. Was happy, then I clicked on them, the server browser slowed the game to a crawl. Then the Search button doesn't show any servers when I click it. I'm pretty sure there used to be a Refresh button before...maybe not, but regardless, the Search button doesn't work for me. Wow.

Browser works good and fast for me now. I do have that spawn issue Disaster has, but not as bad. When spawning the screen freezes for 2 secs and then I spawn.

Somehow the server browser doesn't work 100% for me, because when I tick Hardcore(so it's enabled, I'm not stupid) and press Search it still finds some servers that are non-HC eventhough it's shown as HC. Someone ingame said this might be because not all servers were R10 yet, but by now I'd expect all to be R10.

Also the patch somehow decreased performance for me. Here and then inbetween the game suddenly freezes for like half a second, but it happens like maybe once or twice every 5 minutes, still that didn't happen before. Overall performance is still ok but it feels like -5Fps now.

As for the weapons, I didn't notice anything yet, but then again I'm not a M60 whore.

Some settings (having FF on is one of them), will cause a server to show up and filter as Hardcore.

I'll have to try Xendances suggestion with regard to the spawn freeze problem.
