    Now, I'm not normally one to moan, however.....................

    Being the most unnatural sniper, I decided that I needed to put the L96 to good use and get good at it. 3 days ago (according to battelog) I had a few very good sessions and managed to unlock both the suppressor and straight bolt for it (as well as getting my full bird btw),

    But most disappointingly today (not had a chance since) I got on BF3 and thought I'd give that straight bolt/supressor combo a blast to find that both unlocks are nulled out and I was back at the bipod/12x scope combo. Both of the unlocks appear on battelog as unlocks but the kill count stayed the same as before.

    I really enjoy BF3 but that really fucking annoyed me, bloody EA!!!

    Rant off.

    On a lighter note for some reason the A***E server was 22/24 earlier with only me flying the THEM tag. The name change must have done something positive.....

    Right now where is my beer and Xbox controller......

    Chances of promotion are inversely related to how hard you work.

    Still cant find the server even using the Battlelog via the pc, I'm obviously missing a trick somewhere.
    I only sabotage people I think are worthwhile

    1. Fire up BF3
    2. Click Multiplayer
    3. Click on Server Browser
    4. Open Search
    5. Type A***e in.

    The server will appear.

    Yep, tried that, rebooted, tried again, still no server appearing. Gave up for a while while the beer settled in, just went back for a look and same thing. Search bar says A***e, and underneath says no servers found.

    I know I'm a noob to xboxing online but fuck me, surely search is search....I shall try kicking the Xbox around the room and although it may resolve my searching issues, it will no doubt make me feel better until I decide I wish to try again......

    I don't know why you can't find the server as you're using the correct search parameters and the 360.

    On a lighter note, I had a game of Squad Rush in the wee hours of the morning, and I won, so I got all of my ribbons and the 50G Achievement. I just need to work getting the medals now.

    I had a game of Conquest with a bunch of spawn raping Stephen's. I think my blood pressure reached dangerously high levels. I'll have to try and calm down before tomorrow begins!

    Try searching for Mixed.
    I think the search has to be a bit more exact than usual. Server is now

    Sadly the Xbox is packed away ready for the move back to the UK. After that I'm not sure if I'll get much chance to be on it for a while, new job n'all. Thanks for all the laughs and I might get back on during r&r.
