Angry Venting

Anyone know why EA didn't want anyone to take SS's while the game is loading a new map??? I dominated this pub titan server... had 4 pages of the titan defend pins/5 kills achievement pins, totalling in 378 Career points, and nearly 100 kills alone.... and while i'm taking the next map is loading, I take some screenies.. and they aren't there!! ARGH! The frustration!



Sorry, please continue with your day!

Re: Venting

Use a program like fraps for taking screenshots of scoreboards and such.

I suspect that the reason the game doesn't take screenshots of scoreboards and other menu/UI stuff is because it didn't occur to them or they didn't have time to implement it, rather than an active decision to not allow such shots.

Re: Venting

It only takes screenshots when the 3D engine is running, the menus run on something else, and they haven't implemented anything to take screenshots in that.
