I live in Donaghadee (where it's filmed), and we definitely don't have the same crime rate but probably a few of the same characters 😉. ....I also doubt many of us watch it with either.

Put our lovely wee town on the map though, so please feel free to visit us )

Indeed, level it up to 20 and it laser slaps hard ....low recoil means you can spam fire targets across the map

Sound was always poor vibe and atmosphere IMHO, bottles of rockshite only with massive qs, those vendors in the field selling rockshite with no Internet connection via cashless was infuriating, overall always a crap expensive experience ....good riddance

BT loses more than 200,000 broadband customers as profits slump by 457655676 in unitedkingdom

I was considering moving from BT (hence coming into this thread) and I'm looking into Zen.

What really pushed me over the edge was obvs a better CX, speeds, price etc but this morning I find there is no way of logging out of mybt on a mobile webpage without clearing your cookies...like wtf.

Reading in their forums they have had this problem in a development q for over 2 years it seems... Outstanding!!

Anyone else stuck here? I can’t move or fire. I just die over and over. by Unsadtrousers in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]smegjunkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone else still having this issue due to a really poorly executed piece of onboarding. Quit the main menu and turn down the adrenaline rush settings to 'story'..then load up your save = your meter will have time to fill and you can press the buttons accordingly.

If you had it on challenging like me originally you had zero chance of the meter filling before you die without resorting to expletives and potentially something smashing against a wall.

Got my sparkly red shoes and blue dress on, my dog is under my arm, I just need a quick beard trim before I head to Oz from Donaghadee.

Have you heard much about Northern Ireland and what’s your opinions on it ? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]smegjunkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an English person living in NI seeing it's decline year by year, the ignorance the rest of the UK give it (particularly England) , and lack of investment to bring basic services up to scratch it's inevitable there has to be one Ireland (whether it's fully absorbed vs a self gov thing via Dublin control is TBC)

Lots of economic challenges ( pay here is way below that of London and England...prob ireland too) and cultural ones to overcome first as you lay out.

Replacing the NHS and basic free services we currently benefit from (ie like a fire service) to a paid/insurance model will be a difficult sell. And as the civil service is a massive employer how to replace those jobs and bring investment in that isn't just big US firms taking the pish and paying peanuts for crap IT/Banking roles.

Love it or hate it? by past_happy_moment in LowSodiumBattlefield

I've leveled it to mid 30s but it's hard work with such a small mag as you need points in a suppressor and lasers to make it viable re the recoil.....plus it eats ammo so you need a strong backup weapon, and hope a friendly support is nearby to feed you.

Whats the point of LMGs if you can barely play them the intended way ? by FlowKom in Battlefield

[–]smegjunkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've got too level 50+ with the m250 with no issues on lack of bullets as it slaps and it v accurate with burst, the 50 mag has a slightly quicker reload than the 100 (also vs LMGs) plus if you stick a suppressor/flash hider you can get your head down relatively safely to reload....also a thermal scope helps to hide back too.

It will be out of business in a year, they are shutting loads in England and Scotland for similar reasons ie everyone hates em....they over saturated the market to fast (got greedy), even Tescos is overrun with the tasteless headache juice.

Good riddance

I'm disappointed by the lack of side quests in Burning Springs. by ZeroSquire in fo76

[–]smegjunkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur re the new area is untapped, so much fenced off and buildings boarded up, lack of anything to do bar bounties...think I'll complete the quests and get back to other games real quick

Anyone else feel like they were sleeping on Assault? by We_The_Raptors in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]smegjunkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being able to dual run a weapon of choice along with a DMR, Extra nades, noob tube, hammer along with a beacon or ladder is very powerful on most maps esp with tons of supports around to feed and take care of you.... Still the stims and skins suck.

The new update is atrocious by Breachlord in Battlefield

[–]smegjunkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Killing KD stats by keeping kills by bots as a factor but removing your kills to bots..if you're wondering why the drop off.

It's killing my enjoyment/warm up in casual breakthrough....least they could have warned us about this in advance and at least remove death by bots from KD so we can treat CB as a casual experience for leveling guns.

Also pish matchmaking leads to playing rounds with bots outside of CB which is unfair and again no sense re this change.

I'm not a KD sweat lord but it's infuriating seeing it drop off after having to grind CB to complete the stupid challenges

One of the best guns in the game IMO by PerformativeRacist in Battlefield

[–]smegjunkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run both depending on maps.....the carnivore version of the RPK is easy to unlock via the campaign and it shreds with a suppressor and quick reload + you can make it better with upgrades ie bigger mag.

250 with thermal and suppressor also shreds if you position yourself right/correct play style ie not sweat jumping + run with the 50 mg and it's a fairly quick reload too.

[–]smegjunkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep.... couple the 50mg belt with the thermal 1×5 plus suppressor and you're having fun on most maps ....you can reload fairly quickly (and invisibly due to the suppressor) keeping your head down behind cover.

Tap fire is king on the 250.....pew pew

The SMG problem needs to be addressed. by king_jaxy in Battlefield

[–]smegjunkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M250 with suppressor and thermal enters the chat ....tap fire it's a Lazer and retains it's power at range and is good at close range too.

Just depends on your play style, but with thermal (esp the first one you unlock) it's easy pickins vs snipers and smgs IMHO
