I really don't get your love for this game. You convinced me to rent the first one. Which seemed ok, but i couldn't get over the lag issues. This new one is complete poo. It's almost unplayable. It's cartoonish. You can't lay down.(or if you can i couldn't find it) You're shooting and you're never sure if you killed the person. When you spawn you come floating out of mid air. Picking guns and other things is so confusing. I played 5 minutes of it and was so pissed i wasted 20 minutes of my life waiting for it to download. The servers and game play just don't compare to the CoD series. We need to get up and play CoD though. Started to invite you over the weekend but you were playing that god awful demo. :)

The demo took awhile to get into, but once I did, it was awesome. I agree with Britneck, it was very difficult to kill people at first. It takes a lot more ammo and you can set the sensitivity way up like on MW2, so it feels like it takes forever to turn.

I REALLY love vehicles. It seems like they've fine tuned the helicopter controls to make them usable.

Oh, and the gratuitous yelling of "motherf*cker" by the characters is a bit over the top.

Haha. I had no idea it was a parachute. That's kind of cool. Can the enemy not snipe you down though? I parachuted from the same spot every time. I will spend a little more time on it to see if it grows on me.

You can squad spawn if want to. If you want help playing let me know, it is a bit confusing at first.

Once you blow up a humvee with a tank, level an entire building, or snipe someone halfway across one of those enormous maps, CoD will be forgotten.

Best thing about big maps? Less knifing.

I've actually had MORE knife kills on BC2 than on MW2. Its a lot easier to sneak up on someone because its hard to tell who's friend or foe sometimes.

True, I actually knife a lot more in BFBC, because you can sneak up behind someone very easily, especially as my beloved sniper. But I think knifing is more tactical BFBC2. Hiding, stalking, and assassinating. And I avoid going in buildings for fear of getting knifed. I guess the point is, knifing is avoidable in BFBC, and when you get a knife kill you earned it.

On those claustrophobic COD mapsm where you're never more than a few feet away from anybody, people just knife because it's faster than shooting. It's all about reaction time, not skill. What you end up getting in COD are those guys kamakazi charging at you from 30 feet away, magically evading all of your bullets, and knifing you from 15 feet away with commando.

      That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen".

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By TD alt · Posted

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
