The bug that won't let you request sniper/marksman/support even though no one on your team has got any of the kits.

Getting killed by RPG's even though I'm the only infantry in sight. Honestly, I can understand firing at a group of people with an RPG, but wasting it on one infantry when you've got a pistol?

Having a crappy helo pilot who can't get you in position to use your guns on some target a few degrees out of range.

Getting dolphin dived... that pisses me off more than anything

Having a T62 destroy my M1A1 in one shot to the frontal armor ( I MEAN FFS WTF IS THAT BS) and then that same T62 killing my teammates' tank (ITS OLD AS **** HOW DOES IT TAKE OUT TWO STATE OF THE ART TANKS IN ONE SHOT EACH?)

when np rallys are set/ spawncars are destroyed

APCs been used as combat vehicle (are there existing versions armed only with a .50cal?)

when someone crabs a kit i am exchanging with a squadmate.

when the team forget all culture and is becoming like lemmings.

Being in the only USMC squad that is actually attacking the flags and not just dicking around in the air on al basrah.

Comming 1st/ Having the Best KD ratio on your whole team when your losing
It makes me think "im not even trying as hard as i could be. What the hell are the rest of thr guys doing?!".

getting shot at by a AK101 because i know hes only shooting the overslung Assault rifle attachment because he has run out of ammo for his main weapon, the UGL. Hes just trying to get killed and take someone down i nthe process because he wants to respawn for n00b tube ammo.

Getting shot in the head while flying an LB at high-mid hight, thinking "what were the odds that it would not only hit me, but hit me in the head..."

Knowing that someone is camping your RP.

Seeing an abondance of special forces classes....wolves.

Being copliot/gunner to anyone that isnt Miastros or Zeplin. This usaly is a deduced sign saying "you have 43seconds to live".

...mongol...

You weren't shot in the head. You just got shot and BF2 Engine says your dead for good.

So many Birthdays sence The Summer of 2005, and so little VOiP being used by the players.

The game is nearly three years old, let's beg those moms and wifes for a headset and communicate already.

I know there are a lot of great players without VOip and all, but I am sort of a Natzi about it.

Really irritating that many players do not have this. I guess a lot of this is hardware and software problems.

___

And the ones with VOiP who act like jerks and or over use the squad channel. Arrrghhh.

I guess when they said T for Teen on the Box, EA was not kidding.

Being ostracized for being the only squad member alive on some half arsed mission across the map. Everyone else spawning on the SL 30 secs later & you're stuck with a hopeless task to reunite or condemnation (possible kick) for not being a "squad member".....

Putting a round into an insurgent 10 feet away, only to have him turn and blow both of you up with a RPG.

Being SL but having an overly needy squad that needs you to tell them everything they should know to do on their own without having to be told. It's almost as bad as having a bunch of noobs that run off and lone wolf.

Tank/APC drivers that go head long into a city with RPGs on everyside while you desperately yell at them to fvcking STOP, but only to get blown up 2 seconds later.

another issue, regarding me and the post of rick the new guy:

having no voip.
i try to install it since 6 months, but voip doesnt like me.
i buyed new router, new modem, changed dsl speed, buyed a new soundcard.
what i have now? 3 results without changing any settings
1 result: my voip sends nothing
2 result: my voip sends fine (but only sometimes)
3 result: my voip sounds for squadmates like harming alienmessages, forcing them to say "shut up"

anyone knows whats up with my voip?

ps: TS is running always fine

feel free to move the post when its wrong here, but you also believe its a mostly worse experience not participating at teamwork based operations

The kits may be in the hands of the enemy: if they kill a player & take his kit, that's why you can't get it cos it's already being used..... on you

'[R-PUB wrote:Garabaldi']Waiting for the Village CP to go down on AlBas.

You'd think with massive air and armoured support that the US should have an easy time taking it. Generally, it goes down fairly quick, but I witnessed one of the saddest sights today while playing on Devfile.

The US couldn't capture te Village. The ticket count? Roughly 250 for the US and 650 for the INS.

I got so frustrated I had to leave.

Viper and Cerberus can attest to this, as they were playiong on the US team.

My goodness that was bad. I came moments from TKIng every US guy their with the A10.

BTW thanks to Cerb for spotting the targets.

We had every squad leader in the basement, then when we realised we could shoot through the floor no yanks had a chance.
