Goddamn, what the hell is wrong with you people. Someone prone spams like mad, you scream macros. Someone TVs well, you scream macros. There is a chance this guy is good, but no one wants to believe they aren't the absolute best. I have a G15, and if I can't use my keyboard anymore I am going to be pissed

EA doesn't listen to anyone, they do what they want, and they want to get rid of people they feel are exploiting there game. They also try to balance aspects of the game (yet fail most of the time). As for this tread PB has nothing to do with either EA or DICE.

your comment about TV missiles... OMG learn to use logic. A chopper is in game, a macro is not.

Macros are not hardware, you use software to run these macros. Yes its restricting the full potential use of some hardware but its not restrictings its total use.

So your telling us your not good becuase you have to use macros?
Theres nothing wrong with people being good but when you get a third party program to make you good its almost equivalent to hacks.

I really couldn't care less tho, I don't use macros and have never come across someone who is obviously better due to the use if macros (or anything for that matter).

There would be a lot of pissed off G15 users including me. I don't use macros for dolphin diving, prone spamming or what ever - my fingers are fast enough to do that, but i use the G-keys to assign several stuff like the squad menu etc.

I read the EA UK forums and found one real big retard i want to quote. In a previously posting he stated that Joy2Key (all you Joystick pilots should know it) should be banned by PunkBuster too and he wants to tell them via e-mail.

]I believe you are a joy2key user right..?

I'll take that in to concideration in my reply, but I do respectfully dissagree with you...
You see, autohotkey does not nessesarely make macro's either... It just allows rebinding of keys and more... Without a user programming it, it does nothing...

In the case of joy2key, it's a 3rd party software product which creates new features in the game...
Against the ROE in more ways than a macro even in my opinion...
The reasoning about this also, that anyone who buys battlefield should be able to play it on a level ground, without having to go through hours of forums and helpfiles to install and implement a 3rd party program which others use to create their advantage... couse that's all the joy2key users do, they create an advantage for themselves over others, by implementing features into the game which are not there in vanilla...

If a feature is not there, and you use a 3rd party program to create these features, then my conclusion can only be one...

I do understand your motives to disagree with me...
If i read something like this, i'm not sure if i should cry or laugh about this guy. It's sad to see that someone with this point of view has possible influence on PunkBuster and the game.

What are your thoughts about Joy2Key getting banned too?

I couldn't care about any of them getting banned, you don't need a macro to do anything in the game, you just need to be fast. Although I do feel slightly sorry for the older people or people with problems (like arthritis) that need macros in order to play.

Yeah sure! Macro Software is really evil it harms everybody playing games. Software like TX2 or MMSSXX which do real "damage" because they provide aimbots, chamaelon skins etc  are still undetected by PunkBuster and you can only find them if you watch demos or screenshots.

§1.3 You may not change (hack) any core games files, load into memory or employ external programs or cheats for the purposes of giving yourself an unfair advantage over other players.

This would include but not limited to:
§ MSX and other 3rd party software.
§ Modification of weapons code, aka Tank turrets exploit.
§ CVAR hacks which would make players appear Neon
§ CVAR hacks that let players see thru walls or buildings
§ Mini-Map hack so all players are visible
§ Modification of Player Names which would alter their size or colors.
§ Items not included in this list would be up to EA & DICE to interpret

Sorry for the ROE quote but like it or not  its right there.Anyone that has to use a 3rd party program to gain and advantage is a bitch anyway.Good riddens.

Ultimately any 3rd party program affecting BF2 is illegal unless EA decides otherwise.
You have BF2 LCD for the G15 LCD. It display little info, most server ip etc, no of nades you have. Etc.
PB said it is OK to use.
Now with macro's, yes they can be used for non-exploitive purposes, but because so many do exploit them the software is just banned, at least a autohotkey so far.
Now i do have a G15 i do not mind the G-15 profiler software been banned, however since it auto loads with the PC as its needed to load up the macros and LCD apps. I just hope they give a decent error message so G15 users know what to do to disable the software and enter the server.
But of course there is another side to things, Will PB ban a function on a keyboard sold for gaming purposes, the G15 isn't the only macro keyboard but it is by far the most popular.
In addtion peopel will say SF came with a $15 G15 rebate, meaning EA supports it. I would say that is not true, and probably at the time SF was released the ROE was endorsed by BF2RS not EA.

Next to joy2key, its used to give the FOV the functionally BF2 didn't get built in, which in my opinion it should have although so many games miss it out. Personally i wouldn't ban it as i doubt it could be exploited from the air via a joystick. And no i do not use it.

The decision on these bannings is probably down to EA rather than PB.

Huh what are you talking about... rebate?
You sure this was just not a store thing? Because if it was supported by EA it definatly wasn't global.

I didn't but a G15 to use word.

Also, I don't use macros. I use some of the macro buttons for functions like remove inside view in a chopper, or go to third person view. I don't use macros, but EA shouldn't be limiting the use of them.

Can't play without a macro? Then you're a piece of shit and you deserve to die. Just like Volx's insane bunny hoping techniques, this shit has to stop. People think I use macros when I'm soloing, but I'm just fast and I'm just that good at it. This'll be sweet, more noobs to kill.
