			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-530" title="bfbc2_logo" src="http://www.equk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/bfbc2_logo.png" alt="" width="175" height="175" />I recently got this game (£14) to try as so many people are raving about battlefield games (haven&#8217;t tried any of previous).</p>
<p>After playing it for a few days I think it&#8217;s pretty good and time flies by so quickly. There are quite a lot of bugs tho.<br />I had read about all the tweaks for sensitivity, FOV &amp; FPS tweaks on various forums so spent a few mins implementing these tweaks. 2hours later (yes I was annoyed to say the least) my sensitivity/FOV was set correctly.<br /> The problem is there are different variables for sensitivity depending on what you are doing. There is Infrantry, Stationary Vehicle, Jeep &amp; Air Sensitivity (<strong>4 Cvars for 1 thing</strong>) so it&#8217;s near impossible to get them all set the same as they all differ.</p>
<p>Once I got online I thought it was pretty nice graphics wise.<br />I don&#8217;t like how new players have the lesser weapons putting them at a HUGE disadvantage.<br />The whole stats system seems to make people grind for points (much like MMORPGs) and boast about them. People don&#8217;t actually care much tbh, games are about having fun &amp; the whole epeen thing is pointless (will probably bring in so many cheating kids aswell).</p>
<p>The game seemed ok until I got a sniper rifle out and aimed directly at people (even close range) and only about 40% of the hits would register as hits.</p>
<p>I found some more tweaks about setting interpolation based on latency (my ping to the servers I&#8217;m on is 15ms)</p>
<p>On setting this it seemed even worse but I tried it for a few nights and then put it back to how it was.<br />The whole hitreg thing reminds me of playing quake2 with a 28k modem as you have to aim in front of people to actually hit them.</p>

<p>There is a new patch coming out which supposedly fixes a lot of bugs but I&#8217;m not sure if it will fix the hitreg.<br />A lot of people who play BF2 say the hitreg in BF2 is a lot better so I guess there is hope.</p>
<p>Over the past few nights I&#8217;ve seen at least 30people kicked by punkbuster for cheating and have also seen people blatently botting with names like headtest and headshoot.</p>

It is developed by Runic Games who are ex diablo developers who broke away from Blizzard.<br />
They are currently developing a MMORPG based on the world of torchlight and from playing Torchlight a MMO could be really good.<br />
The game is so easy to get into and has a excellent skill/leveling system.<br />
As you get further into it you get into massive fights with masses of enemies at the same time.<br />
<em>This is excellent for anyone who is waiting for Diablo3 to be released.</em><br />
It is also very cheap at <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/41500/" target="_blank">£14.99 on steam</a>.<br />
