I am thinking of getting the game battelfield 2. How is the internet gameplay and will my system run it. i have a ati 200 chipset.

I'm pretty sure you can run it, however Battlefield 2 is one of the worste shooters I've ever played. It lags when your ping is 15, and it can take upto 6 shots to kill someone even with a Sniper.

Accuracy and damage are both randomly generated too (between set parametres). Do not get it. Do not get Battlefield 2142 either.

I enjoy both a lot.  I guess I haven't had the same problems as DizZa, so I would have to disagree with him.

ok then. how about lag. will it severly lang on my system or what? i want it to run really smoth.

It will run fairly well on your system provided you get a video card.

no, their is an art to battlefield 2 and 2142, it has been said that 2142 is not friendly to BF noobs. u CAN NOT fire full auto in battlefield  u must do short controled bursts or your not going to hit anything. with sniper u have to account for what im guessing is a gravity effect, so aim it slight above their head to hit them. when they are running you have try and judge it corectly above and infront but its general qutie hard. BF2142 sniping is easier with the zeller but basicly the same method.

BF2 + BF2142 are great games and worth getting but their is an art to them. damage is not randomly generated like any other game their are hit boxes with set damage in them and depending on what weapon u are useing it will do differan t damage in the areas. and personaly i have never had much problem with ping and lag as long as u play on a server hosted in near u (in the same country for me)

Get BF1942 or Joint Operations.

Anything else isn't worth the money.

a-hem.... day of defeat source  is like t3h_best

CSS and DoDs  u can not go wrong

Kiddiestrike and Day of Dummies?

Nah.

BF series = good
Source games = good

I reccomend any, although the =SimV= clan primarily goes on BF2  ;)

Red Orcastra: Ostfront...

...probably misspelled all that (dang hangover...) ...but most realistic shooter ever...

My ping is usually over 200 and I can play perfectly.

Red Orcastra: Ostfront...

Yeah, Red Orchestra is pretty realistic, but Forgotten Hope is not far behind.

  I play BF2 a lot, its a good game. Remember theres always someone who doesn't like certain games, personally I ignore them ( ) get the game and decide for myself. If you have a friend who has it go to his house, make an account and see what you think. Also I'm pretty sure that your computer will run it smoothly (depending on server and internet connection) but as said above, get a video card  :D

Another thing to think about lag is its not always your computer, It could be a busy night on the internet which would cause it to lag or the server may just suck. I have a computer that can run BF2 full settings and still get 100fps but if the server sucks or my internet is slow I'll get a really laggy game.

Good luck and have fun  ;D
