battlefield 2

Nah, scopes are for sissies and men who have just had there ear ripped off.

Although there was that time me and my brother made a clan.
We called it TMC, the Two Man Clan.

i like my semi auto Dragonov, M-95barret and M-24, the last 2 are bolt action.

I don't play multiplayer due to a 56k connection but in single player in H&D2 my favorite weapon is the Lee Enfield MkIV. Provided you don't get too close with too many it's pretty much unbeatable.

The only thing about Battlefield 2 that I think is bungled so far, is I can't seem to reprogram the controls for aircraft for my joystick.  Have y'all been able to figure it out?

[USMC_BEANS]

Yeah, you click on the field you want to reprogram so that it is highlighted and then move your joystick in the way you want it to go.  It will map the joystick axis for that movement.

[Scorpiоn]

It always tells me "duplicate control found" yadda yadda yadda...

Tried the demo.

Didn't like it, but my friends liked it and we have regular LANs, so I will end up getting it.

I just got the full version...all the servers seems to be really laggy...

...anyone else having this problem?

[Scorpiоn]

I was gonna get it Tuesday, but Best Buy's shipment was late, and Wal-Mart only got it on the 23rd.  At first (22) all the servers had really bad lag, and I heard someone talking about how there was a server patch, but most host probably didn't know about it.  It was a lot better today. (23)

I bought an Altec Lansing Mic a Best Buy along with it, but I can't get it to work in game.  Plus I feel really silly yelling,
"Nooberator, get in here with me!" in an empty room... Has anyone else gotten VOIP to work?

Ok boys, I bought it but am having trouble figuring out the ports set up. Is there a "trigger port".

I have the list of all the ports needed for game play.

Any advice?

[_526th_Fireman]

Well, thanks for all the great advice....   ...., but guess what?

No, I didn't configure my router yet and was still able to play BF2 online from it's Multiplayer set up. What's up with that?

I had a blast, but I can tell there are some serious players out there that really work together as a team. That's what I am looking for.

Will have to check into this router issue and why I could play anyway without configuring router.

Anybody interested in starting up a game or meeting on one of the servers or running a game server, let me know.

I got my Saitek X45 to function properly and it works like a charm. In BF2, my favorite is either the Cobra or Havoc choppers. But if they're not available, there is always a Buggy for fun riding [I have an International "A" Liscence in Grand Tourismo].

As for the server, yeah they get laggy sometimes. Usually because someone is still using 56K or there are just too many people. 32-64 players is a big number to handle. I'm surprised my laptop can still handle it [I have Cable].

[Katahu314]

Ok, I don't know why, but for some reason the servers [and I mean all of them either kick me out or are already full. Now tell me, if you can, what is going on here? I have Cable, i have disabled many of the background processes, etc. and still, I get kick out for lag even when there are just 12-16 players in a room.

I'm connecting to the servers using the game itself as the main browser. Is it any better when you use it on GameSpy?? And where is this patch people keep talking about??

[Scorpiоn]

As far as I know, the patch is for severs only, so if you're not hosting a server, you don't need to worry about it.
As for maps, I never select 0 ping maps, and usually when they have at least 3-5 slots free.  I rarely get disconnected.  I'm just having trouble getting VOIP to work.

[_526th_Fireman]

I have been playing quite a bit and so far, no problems other than than Voip not working. Supposedly these issues, like the 0 ping (which is a false report) are being addressed by EA.

Supposedly there was a patch release already but that was even buggy, so now they are rushing to get out a "hot fix" to this patch. lol

I read at the forums here: http://www.forumplanet.com/planetbattlefield/

Look for me out there with username Fwfdfireman5.........but don't shoot me!!!!    ;D
