Pictures from the Frontlines!

[StoneCold313]

So this is where you post all the pictures what you take from the frontlines.

From OWNAGE!! to dogtags, this is the thread for you...

But before that we need to figure out where to the screenshots go. If they go to anywhere(if not, please thrash this thread)... :D

I sended mail to EACS asking about this, and will update this after i get answer from them...

:salute:

*Update*

Member named 'Netherscourge' has found the screenshots page. And he posted the link to the official Bad Company forums..

Here it is:

http://badcompany.ea.com/myphotos/CONSOLE/GAMERTAG/
Replace 'Console' in the link with what you have(either Xbox or PS3). And the GAMERTAG part with your nickname...

It seems that it's linked to the 'My profile' page over Badcompany.ea.com, and it ain't online yet...

Here's the link to the original thread

Nice Find :thumbsup:

So are our in game photo's/screenshots automatically uploaded to our profile page on the bad company site then?

[StoneCold313]

Im guessing that they are automatically uploaded to the page, and you have to choose the images you want to save. Since it says above the pics that "You have 0 unsaved images in your Photomode folder." And under the pic is a 'save' button...

[Limehouse]

Hrm.. I took a pic earlier today but it's not on there... :/

[StoneCold313]

[Flamesfan_21]

Hello,

So i just got Battlefield Bad Company last night, and after reading the manual. I noticed that there is screenshot function built in-game. I played today some multiplayer action, and i took few screenshots. After that i looked from my PS3's harddrive and from my profile at http://badcompany.ea.com/. And the screenshots where nowhere to be found.

So my question is, where does the screenshots go what you took in multiplayer?

Thanks[

So it's gonna take atleast one more day, until i get answer from them(this is the first time they have had to call in senior level support :D)...

I'll post the update once i get it...

[sirguustje]

How can I take a 'picture' ?

[StoneCold313]

How can I take a 'picture' ?

D-pad up(on PS3). Although it says 'upload complete' it doesn't save it anywhere atm..

[Cryptik]

Grr... When is going to be working properly >:(

[StoneCold313]

*Update*

Ok so it seems that the pic thing is getting online. It's bit jerky(loads your pics for ages). And it doesn't show up in the profile page. But atleast you can see your pics.

So here's what you need to do.

Go to www.badcompany.ea.com

Login

then go to

www.badcompany.ea.com/myphotos/

If you click 'save' on the images, it should save them and you should be able to see them.

Here's the first pic to this thread.

(Limehouse, you knumnuts(j/k). Shot me with the tracer thing. That light thing hanged on to me until you died :D)

**If it isn't too much trouble, could a mod take out the posts from this thread? So we can get this going right. Thank you! **

[Kyle]

Heh, thats a cool one...

I wish I could take a picture of the three guys I knifed in a row the other day. :D

[Manzi]

hmm i took a few pictures today and they are not showing up.

[StoneCold313]

It could be because that picture thing seems to be still under construction...

[Limehouse]

I'm getting a 'Page Not Found' message whenever I try to go onto My Photos now :(

Can anyone else confirm this?

[StoneCold313]

I can't even get to the front page...

Maybe it's down because they are finishing the pic thingy...

[Manzi]

well the photos page is now not even able to be accessed. now it just says page cannot be found.

at least they are working on it. :)

I got the senior level response finally... And it basically says that the site is currently being improved so the picture feature will work. And it should be working very soon...

Hehe, does anyone think about taking a picture while in the process of knifing three in a row? :D

I bet if that came to my mind I'd be able to capture of a picture of myself getting knifed in the process. ;)

[Dingdong]

Here is My own-age lol
We pulled two tanks up next to each-other and had 1 guy repairing each tank i think it was on harvest day or one of those big maps with fields, we sat there blasting away at the crates and stuff. It was fun.

I've noticed a problem with it, whatever you rate the picture as, it will put it as 3 stars?

[StoneCold313]

Wow... That's awesome...

And im guessing that the rating has to be average rating...

Go and rate my really random pics and we'll see.. :D

[Limehouse]

Grumble Grumble... still not worked for me...

Think it might be because I need to be logged into the EA account linked to the PSN ID... Eugh... how long did it take everyone else to get their confirmation e-mails?

[StoneCold313]

*snip*

I've noticed a problem with it, whatever you rate the picture as, it will put it as 3 stars?

That's weird... 3 stars for me too... :hmm:

[littlejay]

I use gmail and get every EA e-mail right away (within a few minutes) and up to 2 hours for my stats to link up all the way

[Dingdong]

is that 26/4?
Nice score ;)
that would actually be 28/4 lol, cant say i did it myself my squad members where there to:cool:

[Limehouse]

The last 4 times i've tried to upload a picture, it's not worked 3 of those times... :/

[Webs961]

Thread's stuck.

Have fun guys. :)

[StoneCold313]

That whole thing is really trippin... Still...

For me, i tried to check some pics i took earlier... At first, it didn't even show them. And after saving all the pics, it did show them in the list. After deleting some pics, and saving the new ones. It show'd the preview(small pic) as different as the pic really was.

yea it did that to me too, i guess you can only save a few.

when you delete old and save new the thumbnail wont refresh correctly so do a whole refresh Ctrl F5

[Limehouse]

Guh... Stonecold, you playing now?

[StoneCold313]

Guh... Stonecold, you playing now?

[StoneCold313]

But anyways, here's few of my knife spree pics.

My first Melee Combat Trophy

This guy was 14th in the leaderboard. Then his stats were reset... :D

Don't ever let sniper to sneak behind your team. This is what happens.
http://i37.tinypic.com/11a9xjc.jpg

Collateral Damage... It happens...
http://i38.tinypic.com/2ezpsme.jpg

So there was few of the pics i have taken... I'll post some more, when i get some good ones...

[ak1knight]

How do you guys get so many knifes? I only have 7 in 6 hours of playing :confused:

[StoneCold313]

^^

Years of experience... :D


j/k

I have like 60 dog tags(more or less a few), but think that playing as sniper has something to do with it... Well, atleast for me...

Since i usually end up behind of middle of enemy lines. And 8 times out of 10 the enemies doesn't even notice me, when they run past me.

So it's really easy to sneak up on people from behind. And the UAV grenade makes it even more easier.

When coming from behind the enemy lines, to a town, for example. Just throw that UAV, and it will light up the enemies within it's range. So it's really easy to collect dog tags after that...

yeah just get behind the other team and don't be afraid to run around with your knife out

[Kyle]

They rack up fairly quickly I've found, a few days ago I had 20 or so, and it just went up to about 50 last night.

I found its easier than shooting a gun sometimes... kinda like the cod4 knife.

[StoneCold313]

Ok so here's few new pics...

Finally!

So where is all the pics, guys? I know that you have been taking them. So why you ain't sharing them?

*edit*

These aren't the same pics as before. Because i didn't save the right ones... :|:

[Apostle]

Can't see your pic's Stonecold..?

[StoneCold313]

I deleted them from my profile earlier today... I'll repost them if i still have them saved on my PC...

*Edit*

Ok, so i had one of the original pics saved, but the two other ones are new...

[KC-10]

38+ Melee Combat trophies for me. I have about 3000 kills, around 800 of which are with the knife (slightly less than 1/3 of my kills have been with the knife). If I took screenshots of all of my knife kills in one round..all of those images would not even save into my photo folder, seeing as you can only save 10 at one time.

[StoneCold313]

I have started to save the pics on my PC. So that way the new ones should show up faster...

Here's few new ones

http://i35.tinypic.com/28jvczc.jpg

I think this is a good one...

http://i37.tinypic.com/2pyygyu.jpg

[KC-10]

38+ Melee Combat trophies Whoops, I have more than that amount in Combat Aviator trophies. I have 106+ Melee trophies. Might try and screenshot my trophies tonight.
