This game browser is probably the second worse I have ever seen in my life. No single server refresh, filters don't filter out full games most the time, slow loading, can't manually stop it, can't list by ranked or not ranked, lag display lies horribly, etc.
Well, I dunno about you kids, but I read somewhere .. either IGN.com or some sort of authentic site (maybe Gamespot?), but they were saying something like even with their highest and best performing system they couldn't play it on all high settings. Even, like someone else said in this post, dual GeForce 6800 OC's.
I actually think it was IGN. They have a whole thing on graphics cards and systems and crap. So, yes, it is DICE's fault.
I've patched my game, an now I can't find any more than 5-10 servers with a ping lower than 100! Thats after multiple refreshs! Before the patch every round end in a ranked game it would crash me back to my desktop! That seems to be fixed! Hopefully EA can keep listening to us players, an get this game runnin smooth!
For example I was just finished repairing my Heli on Dragon Valley having a grand old time, I take off again, and then some idiot runs into the back of me in his passenger Heli and the whole crew on there punishes me for the TK. You know stuff like this can drive a man mad. I have also had experiences in sniping and laying mines to cover my back like on Mashtuir, however I still get punished when a teammate sees the BIG RED X and decides to run on it and kills himself, and I get punished and then kicked for it. GOD I can only take so much.
As for the lag I have no lag except for people who run crappy servers.
My specs ASUS A8N -SLI AMD 64 3200 939 pin

anyway have with the game, and remember there is a forgive button so if you into the tail end of a heli or try to stand on one when it takes off its your own fault. so forgive.
Before people start off in this thread about how innaccurate/weak the guns are, try using ironsites and single shot mode from a prone/crouched position, you will find you will be much more effective. Also, the sniper rifle is just as good as it was in the other BF games, you just arent used to it yet.
Even the pistol can be quite deadly if used properly.
i totally agree with you~~~
the sniper rifle rock~~~ specially the m95~~~
i been sniping a lot of black hawk and cobra pilot down ~~~~
also some time team kill some butthole who stole my plane ^_^~~
all u need to do with the sniper is aim to the head and wait still your chance come and then take a shot.... ^_^~~~
also the idea of claymore rock~~~ it is the sniper best friend ^_^~~
sorry for spelling becoz i m a FOB~
Are you sure? They don't 'support' Windows 2000, but it runs fine on my machine. The list is only what they know will work.
Its not that bad, they haven't sent me any e-mails and you never have to visit their site...
Thats kind of stupid. Wasn't the part of EA that make it based in Sweden? Or somewhere around there, at least?
r u using window 2000?
i have problem running the demo with my win 2000
that why i need to start eatting bread and drink water for the rest of next 2 month to save money for my new super computer to be builded ^_^
if it can run on win 2000 u can save me a week from those bread and water ~~~
thx you ^_^
1. Yes it runs on windows 2000 perfectly well and don't let anyone else try to convince you otherwise
2. The 6800 isn't that great of a card, the 6800 ultra on the other hand is something worth using. X800, X850 are both great choices from the ati side.
3. I can run BF2 at 1600x 1200x with everything on high and 4xAA(with gamma correct and super transperency) and still get 60fps. So I am no sure how you can say that it runs poorly on every pc (note: I have a 7800gtx :P)
4. On my settings the game looks great, it's like HL2 but the levels are 100times larger, the reason HL2 runs so well is because all the levels were linear had loads of loading times.
