Battlethumbs: Idle Company

[Armchair General]

That sounds dangerously commie to me. STICK YER SOCIALISM UP YER ARSE, NHSMAN!

You are guilty of a thought crime, the thought police will be around shortly to kill you in a horrible way. Selfish boy

[Jamsl]

This could be moot for me as, so far, I haven't found a way to change my name without creating a new soldier and wiping out all the earned shiny things this game dangles like so many participles.

Am I just being dense? Anyone know how to change their name? (non-Steam install by the way)

[toblix]

Luckily, you enter your klan tag each time you select your soldier, so there's no need to rename.

[Lu]

Unless Jammy already made a soldier that has Thumb in the name, because he didn't realize that clan tag and nickname are treated as separate things...

I'm also for Thumbs by the way.

Oh, and last nights matches were awesome. Skratche, you should definitely join us on Skype. The light planning we do really helps stick a squad together with a purpose. I also shouldn't be allowed to fly a helicopter.

[toblix]

Have they changed the helicopter controls in a crazy way since BF2142? I had super control in that game, but in BC2 I just flipped the helicopter and burned.

[Patters]

ALSO Thumb [insert name] is not a good combination of words.

[Jamsl]

Luckily, you enter your klan tag each time you select your soldier, so there's no need to rename.

Aha, hadn't noticed that. Thanks Toblix

[Armchair General]

...I also shouldn't be allowed to fly a helicopter.

HA! I had forgotten that the Oil rig thing 'flew' into you last night

Auto rotating into the sea is my specialité

[James]

I also shouldn't be allowed to fly a helicopter.

From my experience thus far, no-one should be allowed to pilot helicopters. Not a single one I've occupied has managed to stay out of the sea for more than a couple of minutes.

My theory is their is a huge magnet in the sea attracting us. Either that or a magical mer-man

[Wokkels]

Ok so i saw someone asking about "who the hell is wokkels" and just like my wise ass Skype comment.. "That's Me". I'm just a lil dutch guy n a RL friend of PiratePoo, Sir Pocket n Mike. PiratePoo u all know i assume, The rest i dont know.

I've been forced into buying L4D2 a couple of weeks ago but only played with PiratePoo , Pocket n Mike so far ( except for last night )

And now last night Sir Pocket mailed me a Battlefield Bad Company 2 Game well for those who where there last night u know how that magic went. It was amazing wasnt it!

I hope i can be apart of more magical nights with the Thumbs.

Anyway that's kinda who i am and why im around here n show up in some of the Battlefield games if not all. I really enjoy that game now ^^ If there are any questions dont hesitate to ask.

[Armchair General]

...If there are any questions dont hesitate to ask.

Just one...who are yo...I'm kidding Hi Niels

[Wokkels]

Just one...who are yo...I'm kidding Hi Niels

Atm im the guy who got the M95 i expected it to be alot harder to get to the final weapon of a class but the server shit makes it alot harder then it really is.

Oh woe is you.

Good games of Battlefield, even though you're one of those disgusting sniper types.

P.S.

Thanks for ruining my secret online life.

[James]

WHO THE FUCK IS WOKKELS?

I hope you weren't too offended.

[Scratch]

Nevermind Wokkels, who the fuck is this other Black Vase or Buck Case or whatever guy, who's been following us around using the THUMBS tag.

[toblix]

The Black Valge or something. He's a good guy in my book.

Anyway, what the hell has happened to you people, playing on a server without crosshairs? Everything went to crap last night, because I couldn't aim because my crosshairs were gone, and then I tried to ask you guys about it but my voice is weak, like a gentle breeze, and then I typed the question but nobody answered BECAUSE I HAD BEEN TRANSPORTED TO THE OPPOSITE TEAM. Anyway, good times.

Also, is everyone agreed on the bad scheduling of L2D and BC2 (and, seemingly, DoW2)? It seems everything is happening at the same time, and we're forced to choose.

This family is being torn apart! well not quite, but were growing and we cant all play the same games, it was bound to happen. Its nice to have options, and I don't have to play a certain game on sundays to join in on the thumbtivities. Its just too bad I cannot play with everyone at once!

....not in a gross way

[toblix]

Yeah, I guess there aren't enough days in the week to accommodate everyone. There should be more days!

[Wokkels]

Nevermind Wokkels, who the fuck is this other Black Vase or Buck Case or whatever guy, who's been following us around using the THUMBS tag.

Black Valk, His steam id / L4D2 name is Mike, just like his real name. Don't know if you guys played some L4D2 with him before, i believe some have.

P.S. PirataPoo

Your welcome I do have a secret Starcraft life for sale if you want it

And dont worry about my sniping. I gotten the weapon i wanted as sniper so now ill be doing the other classes aswell

[Armchair General]

Ah, black valk is Mike, it all becomes clear. Tell him to post and say hi or we will all be saying..'Wokkels? Who the fuck is THAT guy'

[toblix]

Except me, I'll be saying "Hello? Where is my cross hair become?" and then ragequit.

Snippet of us skypers...'where's Toblix?...I don't know...oh?! He's on the other team...what's he doing there...Christ knows...is he coming back?...no idea...maybe he has switched sides in a selfless act to rebalance the teams...yeah that'll be why....are you in the chat 'Blix?...'Blix?...(etc etc)'

[Wokkels]

Ill tell him that

Did u really ragequit toblix? cuz i thought u were there all night aswell o.O

[toblix]

I'm not selfless, so I guess that it autobalanced me over. Either that, or it was my... accident involving myself and one of those little cars. I took it for a spin, unintentionally -- and completely by accident -- lightly touched a number of explosive barrels -- irresponsibly stored, by the way -- which exploded with a force that might surprise you. I guess the game interpreted this accident as an inside job and booted me back to my "proper team". Anyway, I intend to acquire a high-tech microphone that will make my voice positively booming, so that I can shout "Lima! A thousand times Lima!".
