Thanks Luke, I will look again. Do you know if you will have the option to adjust the bullet damage in your server?

well, they have never had prone in any Battlefield, right? so its not really consoles screwing us so much as "this is the way that BF is, deal"
On another note, yes, the console port nature of the game is screwing us over with graphical limitation, simplistic controls, minimalistic menues and options and greatly simplified customization of kits, but until PC dominates the market again (which it never will) we're stuck. As an interesting aside, I was reading somewhere that many companies have given up making games specifically for PC all-together because they did a study looking at game keys active in online servers, 95% of PC gamer playing online have pirated copies. so its no wonder that producers have decided to only make ports, we're all a bunch of cheap pirates! :P
all I can say is "yarr! avast, ye lubbers!"

Sorry you couldn't prone in Battlefield, I could. I gotta wonder what else we are going to see as a compromise in the future in this game.

Actually, they've always had prone as the Z key, and I believe they are planning on adding it to the pc version.

I do not know about bullet damage at this time. The current beta has some hit detection issues it seams but they say that a lot of things are being worked on. There seams to be a lot of options for the servers from what I have seen so far.

I also got kicked for inactivity last nite. Stopped to eat supper and just spawned and sat in the back corner and didn't move. I don't know what the time was on it, but it's probably a good thing to have, keeps people from tying up a server.

I had the same thing happen yesterday. I think each server can set up their own time limit for afk.

Weather turned on or off in the game menu (found it Luke) and re-boot of the game or the computer it will no longer let me in servers that run Punk Buster. I get the same error I posted earlier. Not that big of a deal due to the fact I am just getting a feel for the game but would be nice to join friends in PB servers.
