Completely unplayable for me at this point after two good days. Taking a break until this all gets straightened out. Way too frustrating to deal with at my age!

[Hohokam]

Wait till you get my age. LOL

[Brynstar]

Aren't we fairly close in age? I am in my 40s, for the record.

[Hohokam]

Late 60s for me. BKs got one on 1st Ave now

I am interested in joining the Desert Rats. What do I need to do.

[TripnFall]

Got my new computer set up and running... made a couple of drops but surely need to get hooked up and re-trained in the game. Elf I heard you're hooked up with TS so let me know when we can maybe chat some. Man this new puter R.O.C.K.S.!!!

[StickEGreen]

Grats on the new puter. I've just broke down and ordered a quad core cpu as well that will hopefully smooth out my experience (or at least cause my 4850 to bottleneck instead of my dual core). Running like crap hasn't stopped me from dropping or getting kills so far though

[Pharcyide]

Thanks again for the invite and drops last night Brynstar and good to see the connection issues are fixed

[Brynstar]

It was fun! We had some decent games and it's always fun to take the Goon Swarm down in a match! Let's play again soon.

Yeah, once I replaced my router, all my problems vanished! The new one is slick.

Yeah the son really did me well on this...quad core...8gig of ram...killer graphics card... no all I need is some T.R.A.I.N.I.N.G.!!! Dusting off the cobwebs in battle isn't fun...oh wait....YES it is!!!

Got my "new" cpu earlier in the week (actually it's a used Q6600 I got for dirt cheap when you consider I didn't have to buy new mobo/ram), but I'm still waiting for my aftermarket heatsink and fan combo (went with a cooler master hyper 212 EVO) to arrive to see if it works. I'm a little worried since it's used, but unless someone abused it before reselling it, I doubt I'll be able to notice any difference.

Assuming the cpu is like new (as advertised) I should be able to push it up over 3 ghz by quite a bit. If it dies an early death in a few months at least I'll have given the devs a chance to optimize for my core2duo.

I'll probably be trying the cpu/cooler out on saturday if anyone is going to be around and wants to drop with me.
