Anyone have this game yet? I have had it for about 6 hours and its awsome. The graphics are spectacular. The only problem is sometimes while im playing my view goes into a unstoppable right spin, and the only way to stop it is to restart my computer. Anyone else have this problem?
-
I had the infamous "Cannot back up or go right" bug. Unplugging the Fighterstick and Pedals, eliminated it. The game is great.
I also recommend coming into the Army of Muppets server, for a good time. I'm Karaya-AOM- and Kappa is one of many great members of AOM in the gaming Community (unrelated to here).

I possibly just had a stroke of brilliance, I bet its my TrackIR :banana:

Told ya to get rid of that POS and play old school with views on your hat switch.

if i could kick you through the internet i would :D

It's a damn nice game that runs surprisingly well on my wife's rig that is a couple of years old. Only problem I'm having is that I can't see through the damn window on the heavy machine guns with the armor panel.

they better have fixed the joystick thing it did this in beta with my ch gear plugged in.
I would love to fly the chopper with it plugged IN!
If anyone from AH is playing on PC they are more than welcome to jump on our vent server. Phanta was ranked #1 in beta for a long time and Kazaa is awesome at it. I'm not that bad myself once i get my game on. Will spend a few weeks playing it soon as it arrives.
-
Yea i unplugged my joystick and it works fine now :furious
-
So this is worth buying?
-
Something I want to know is, is the AI system still dumb as rocks like all other EA games??
-
ok im off to get one for my son and hopefully a PC version for me, if i get the PC version my name is always BloodyStump, Bruv ill look for that server, im amp to go get it and my son will be surprised
-
So this is worth buying?
Yes.
-
my game id is br00v add me on the friends list thing is pretty handy. If your playing it will show where and you can just click join.
sucky thing is we had to wait 5 days for it to be released in europe. :(
-
W00T!! installing right now, like a kid in a candy store cant wait to see the grafics with dual 260 gtx's

The graphics are about as close to incredible as I've EVER seen in any game up until this one.
-
I've been thinking about getting this one, the only thing stopping me was my experience with Battlefield 2. BF2 had a ton of potential and at moments was a lot of fun which only made all the problems I had with it all the more frustrating. The programming seemed really clunky and not well optimized, then I had issues with lag and some of elements and common practices of players just used to drive me nuts like the stupid dolphin diving and bunny hoping.
If they cleaned up the programming and the game runs well and if I don't have to worry about every player I run into either hopping around constantly so I only hit their feet, or alternatively diving at me with the SAW blazing away I'll have to look at this one. :)
-
is there a way to adjust graphics settings individually without selecting just generally high, medium, low ect? The game runs smooth as hell until dust and smoke start flying, then it tries to slow down a bit.
-
Bruv, i sent an invite under BloodStump lol thought i had the Y in there :furious :furious no way to change it that i know of yet. Branch, i went with the advance settings everything up max i dont know if your system can run it on those settings i'm running dual 260GTX cards in 1920x1080HD with HDMI hooked up, ill go back and see what else there are for settings and edit this post, but i can say wow this game is fun, great single player and online mutiplayer grafixs are fantastic :aok and ill look for the AoM server
-
I bought it online downloaded, won't install. Waiting for EA forums to become usable again and customer support was conveniently down all day yesterday. Finally got my ticket logged. We'll see what happens. XP Pro SP3, english install -- installer gives me the language select screen, then a dos window blips and then nothing.
Would love to be playing it, instead I did BF2 last night.
-
just installed it, havent got time to play today but I received your friend requests. :aok
We should all hook up one night and have it large!
-
Soulyss since you can't prone in it that removes the dolphin dive from the cheese move list and I have yet to see someone trying to bunny hop, course there may have not been enough time for that yet.
If anyone is interested my game id is Amadgnome.

I'm glad prone is disabled, it makes the campers better targets.

the game is outstanding, the sounds are great, on 5.1 when shells go off the sound is so realistic close or far away they have there own sounds, same with the gun sounds, im having fun getting used to all the gadgets and toys to drive, the waverunners and quads are a kick, was tooling around on a quad last night wide open i took a jump flew over 2 or 3 dudes (im sure they were going WTF?) and landed in the heart if the enemy lol ugh i died very fast lmao its fun

I just beat the Story Mode last night, it was pretty awesome! Multiplayer (in my opinion) destroys MW2 in everyway, I like how it actually requires Teamwork to be sucessful vs run and gunning.
-
Game is a hoot. I'm a beta tester for EA during my nights and have been playing it for a couple of months. It's come a LONG way let me tell you from our initial beta. Still some issues to work out with joysticks (I brought this forward first on the testing team and it's going to be patched shortly).
-
I hope something will be done with that damn dx9 bug on the HMG with shields.
-
I'm on Xbox live with this and MW2 Billydee420
-
im still having problems with the game getting laggy when alot of effects start happening like smoke especially
-
add me too, jdbecks is my name :aok
-
playing the PC version here, its totally cool. :aok
-
Quick question I am thinking about getting this for my pc, however I was wondering is it just the $50 for the game or is there a monthly charge?
-
servers are free, and theres a ton of them, the game likes a moderate to high end computers for the really excellent graphics settings, but i have'nt really heard to many people say they couldnt play it.
-
I played online for the first time last night. I'm really bad... :furious It's my first FPS I've played in a year or two. The graphics are nice and the sounds are great though.
-
I've heard it's awesome. Just bought it today. Going to be buying a second HD5770 on Tuesday and both should arrive on Friday (I hope). Cannot wait to see the eye candy!
-
anyone else having quite alot of Connection problems to EA? I seem to be plagued with them today.
-
It's a fantastic game, a few connection bugs still need to be ironed out. But it's still well worth the money.
The multiplayer gameplay is just so addicting! It puts the COD series to shame.
Add me: Kazaa on PC, I don't do consoles.
-
For those of you who have BC2 for Xbox 360, Have you been having trouble getting into a online game? It keeps saying Unable to log in. and when me and a friend try to join a game
-

yes i have that 2
-
The game needs more maps, only 6 for conquest which just doesn't cut it, they sure do look beautiful though!

Question...does it use the retarded Steam stuff CODMW2 uses? Or can we have 50 man servers like the older CODs? I also hear SP is great.

That is one thing I liked and disliked about COD. Too many guys would hop then lay down. Me normally using a single shot made it extremely hard to shoot them before they killed me, especially with that oh so perfect aim when you're flying through the air!
I started to use the Uzi toward the end of my COD4/5 stint and it worked well against those dolphin dive guys.
Prone is good when you are actually trying to covertly hide from an enemy, though. Such as when you are in a firefight and reloading, etc.
-

for PC do you guys have Rush Mode? there is like 5-6 maps for that mode
-
Who plays rush mode, srsly. It's all about conquest my man!

It has dedicated servers yes, 32 max player limit.

Awesome. Cannot wait to get it.

What separates BFBC2 from the COD series is the fact that you don't necessary need to have twitch reflexes in order to feel like you've achieve something in a round. BFBC2 rewards team play like no other in the genre, support your buddies an you can reap the rewards also.
The feeling of steamrolling around the map with a great squad is awesome. :D
-
I had Battlefield 2 for the PS2, it was really fun... is this the same franchise?

Sounds so fun, I feel like calling BestBuy and telling them to get my order to my house tomorrow or else. :) Do you play on weekends? I'd enjoy catching a few rounds with you and learning the game. Weapon wise, is it like BF2, or can you customize your slots a bit? I like the customizable stuff, but I'm fine with stuff like "Assult, Gunner, Anti Tank".

Believe so.
-
its pretty fun, I like driving round in a tank or being a sniper using the semi auto sniper rifle, cant remember the name.
-
for PC do you guys have Rush Mode? there is like 5-6 maps for that mode
yes theres 3 or 4 modes, Kazaa ill add you, i go by BloodStump on the PC version i dont do consoles either, anyone on PC feel free to add me
-
Just checked out a YT video and it seems there is no weapon customization or Slots where you can choose your own things...kind of sucks, oh well.
-
I got a question is this a squad based mission game or is it a shoot em up game. If it is a shoot em up game what is the point of having squads. Also wouldn't everybody just get in a tank. I was really excited about getting the game but now I am trying to figure out if you can actually do co-op missions, which is what I like doing.
-

There are indeed 3 slots for specialization, two for your person and one for vehicles. There's also a choice of different gadgets for some classes, for example, the Recon class can equip C4 or a laser designator to paint targets for mortar strikes.
It's not as customisable as COD, but it's more realistic.

It's a cross between both. You go around the map with your squad, take objectives while killing other players at the same time.
Tanks are very fragile when not used correctly, a single person can take one out with a couple of nice RPG hits or a single mortar strike. That's if the tank doesn't have an engineer backing him up.

Yes.
BF2 on PS2 was a joke btw, if you liked that game you'll love BC2.

Awesome, I absolutely hated the guys that thought they were "uber" with their Red Tiger skinned guns.

Bit the bullet and downloaded it yesterday afternoon, have to say that is one fun little game. Spent most of yesterday playing through the SP game which was a pleasant surprise before hoping on a MP server last night for about an hour. Once I was able to start visually sorting through all the things I was seeing on screen I started enjoying myself quite a bit despite being really, really bad. :)
-
yea im horrible at the multiplayer :rofl
-
ok I have the pc version and i cant get connected to the multiplayer, what do i need to do???

Setup an EA account and you're good to go.

I found another potential work around to the endless spinning to the right problem, which I had when I first loaded the game. Rather than having to crawl under the desk and unplug my joystick, throttle, pedals, etc. I just moved the throttle towards the middle of it's travel and the spinning slowed then stopped.
Wanted to throw that out there as a possible fix till they can get a patch issued.
Spend a couple nights on the AoM server and so far I'm having a blast. :)

I have the same problem in a lot of games, mostly FPS's. The easiest fix I've figured out was just to create a blank CH .map file with no controllers and load it each time I want to play a FPS. Eliminates the joystick bleeding through and I don't have to disconnect my gear each time I play a FPS.
ack-ack

I just got this game today for the PC. After downloading it however I get this messege that says my current version needs to be updated so I click the option to update. After that I get the same messege again saying the same thing.
Both messeges look like this:
"Your version is: 515195
Latest version is: 519874
You'll have to update to the latest version to be able to play.
Do you want to update to the latest version?"
After I click yes to downloading it again it begins to download for a minute then I get this messege:
"File not found.
Their might be an internet connection problem or server is down.
Play the old version?"
I clicked yes and have played several campain missions and its awsome, graphics are amazing. I created an EA account but whenever I go to the multiplayer section and search for games to join it always returns with a "no games found" messege. I am guessing this is because I am on the "old version"?
So my question is are the servers just down like it suggested? (My internet connection is not an issue.) Or is this a bug or something im doing wrong?? Im dying to play online. :(

EDIT: doh! I just typed this whole thing up but looks like it actually IS the servers and not my fault...hehe with that update bug/problem I was having I was sure it was something on my end messing it up . :o
-
I played online earlier fine...great game. I added KAzaa and Zoom to my friends.

Did you attempt to manually patch the game?
-
Stodd go into you BC2 folder there will be 2 icons one is the BC2.exe icon which is the icon you would click to enter the game,there is also another icon BC2updater.exe click that icon that one will go and update it, they have been having some problems with the exe updating to the right version, double click the BC2updater that should solve your problem
edit.... did you buy the game from a store or is it a digital download thru steam or another place like that? they have been having problems with the digital downloads as well as retail store versions, but man i love the game when i can connect
-
Got it working! Its crazy how much damage you can take online.
-
I downloaded this a few nights ago and have been having a blast with it although I'm quite the nub. I sent a few of you in this thread a friend invite in hopes of finding some one to team up with. My in game name is Lambo-SAS.
-
I couldn't get online to work this morning, was going to play a couple matches before I had to leave.
-
Hey guys I don't know if you have received them yet but I have gotten emails bout hacks that are out. If people get them it is gonna be like COD. I hope everybody has integrity and won't use them.
Btw I'm pafire11 on the game... See ya there
-
I'm hoping punkbuster and server admins will put the kibosh of most of that. Ran into a couple of love muffines tonight that let someone on my team get their goat. They switched teams and then proceeded to blow mcoms they were supposed to be defending. So in a way it's looking like MW2 in more ways that just one.
-
once we get enough people from here on our friends list's, we can take over one of there servers lol
-
Should make our own AH clan :)
My name in there is Xcelsior since Spikes and MstWntd were taken. :furious
-
my friends list has gone..nothing but a blank list :cry
-
lol great that means when i log in mines going to be gone to lol ugh :furious
-
I maxed out the recon upgrades, im trying to get the medic up to the mg3 machine gun..and boy do I suck, I can hit so much with the sniper rifles, long distance, moving targets etc..when ever I play the medic Im lucky to get more than one kill, even at close range i struggle
-
I have a buncha kills with the M24, don't use it much though. I unlocked the first upgrade to the Assault, though. Oh yeah, level 1 baby :)
-
lol JD , i just came out with a 27 kills and 1 death on recon in 2 missions, i like using hunting techniques when doing recon, i actually worked my way to behind the enemy and man it was a field day with my trusty sniper rifle, went 14 and 0 in that round then 13 and 1 next, to many people started using me for a spawn point so i had to keep on the move or id get killed, But that's how a successful snipers were IRL they never stayed in one spot, you do you DIE !!, and my friends list is up, so once again its........Bloodstump PC version

thats how I play, I get a few kills and move around and shot from unsuspecting sniper spots..I normaly fight quite close, although on the snow map with oil pipes on rush, I landed ontop of them and ran to a little ridge, I got about 15 kills before people relised I was there, that was with the kill cam too lol.
I think I might run around just using the defibulator to ressurect people instead of trying to kill people with the lmgs, it might help when I get the red dot sight tho

-
Zoom or jd,
Will you guys be online sometime Friday or Saturday (After the scenario?)
I'd like to follow you guys around with your sniping to get better at it...I haven't figured out the ballistics for long range shots yet...unsure if it's a straight shot like COD.
I always seem to wait too long for a shot since I almost always have to put two hits into a guy unless it's a headshot. I'd rather get 1 hit kill than waste bullets/give away a position.
What are your favorite modes and maps for sniping?
-
i like the snow maps, i have a few favorite places that always get kills, right where i can see the RC heli station, lol crotch shots take them out everytime lol, and the village jungle, that map i rarely get killed. today i got a AoM tag hehe snuck up on him

Heheh copy that :)
I'd like to actually work closely with a friend (hope they get the friends list fixed) and even give a sniper like you cover if anyone finds you, seeing as the cooperation of the game is still extremely important, I like doing "support" missions like that. You going to be around this weekend to take on a young BC2 padawan? :)
-
oh yea ill be on this weekend, im really finding this game very fun, the idea that you have to work together is great, guess im going to have to get ventrilo working ingame.
-
I am awful, however I seem to do slightly less awful with the sniper rifle. My only problem is that unless its a direct head shot or a point blank chest shot, I cant kill the enemy with 1 shot and they usually just move to cover after I hit them once. Even if I hit them directly in the chest...wish their was a "hardcore" mode or something more realistic.
-
wow last server i went into tonight, was hacked.. one ( or alot of them) could see everyone, i was killed 11 times without even firing off 1 round, AoM Dano was in the same squad, im sure he was getting it just as bad, i would run thru the cover over hills, down trenches keeping concealed the second i stopped BAM! dead and it was always a LMG after 11 deaths without firing a shot, i logged... ive heard of a hack that turns the enemy yellow and you can see them anywhere, thats what this server was like. when i went into it the server was full and when i left there was only 8 people in there, so im asuming others felt the same way, before i left the guy had 78 kills 2 deaths nearest other guy was 6 kills and like 8 deaths, its hard to find good trusted servers
-
I unlocked the MG3 the other day. Was very disappointed with it. M60 is the way to go. :aok
Almost all the medics I see are running around with the M60. I maxed out the assault kit over the weekend, haven't quite decided yet but I think the M-16 is my favorite, except for possibly the M416 in close quarters situations.
Not that it matters much I stink no matter. :)
-
Soulss you are right. Medic with a red dot m60 is the best way to go. I really like the m16 as assault for everything from range to cqb. You gunned me down quick more than a few times last night. You're getting good!
Unfortunately hax will always be around. Punkbuster will work but they always lag the newest hax and play catch up. In our server they don't go unnoticed and we will usually have a member in game during peak hours. Ban them ALL from life! If only we could do worse to them.
-
M60 is a beast.
-
Kazaa your a beast !!! damn great score going, nice K/D ratio :salute i started off the game like most do (Rambo) ive settled down and got more into the game, almost a 5 now... i love my M24, i have the other sniper rifles but this gun rocks, i found me a Avatar i like :D its my Motto in BC2 :devil

The only real problem that I can see with the M-16 is it's shot for shot a little weaker than some of the other rifles, but in general I think it makes up for it in accuracy, despite being limited to 3 round bursts you can still rattle off a clip pretty quickly if you need to. I still think I've be inclined to give a slight edge to the M-416 in a knife fight just because it's full auto think it's a little easier to control your ammo expenditure. Just like in AH I'm not a very good shot and with the M-16 in CQB I tend to run out of ammo in the clip before I can drop the guy. I also have a bad habit of aiming center mass rather than go for the head shot in those situations.

Spikes, I use different recon set ups depending on the map,
My set up is,
GOL Magnum / M95
X12 Optic sight
Extra Ammo
and the remote position sensor for the sight, cant remember the name
Mortar strike
M1911 Pistol
The GOL Magnum is the most accurate sniper rifle, but once I unlock magnum bullets I will use the M95 for its range and one shot one kill capability no matter where on the body you hit. I used the M24 up until the GOL magnum but sometimes using the QBU 88 with the x4 optic sight for built up maps.
When firing at range, on some of the large maps I need to aim 5mm above the targets head and up to 1" infront of them to hit them if they are running, but the more you practice the more familiar with deflection shots you will get.
Play the rush maps, I found as a sniper I could earn 5k points in a good match with 2 - 3k going on recon points the rest for bonuses to increase rank, lots of spotting and motion sensors and from kills will soon rocket the points up.
Think about your shape and silhouette, using cover behind a flat wall with your head above it will stand out at quite some distance, esp to other snipers. when on a hill dont be at the peak as it will cause your silhouette stand out against the back drop.
Avoid all the other snipers as it will draw the sniper hunters to them and you, fire a few shots and move around and avoid using the same spot because people will look for you if you start killing them a few times due to the kill cam.
I always will try to use un obvious places to shoot from and if I can try and shoot from the flanks as people tend to rush forwards and there is a less chance to be spotted or accidental walked into by someone. Things like on top of the hill that over looks the capture point etc is the usual spot to find someone sniping.
When shooting from the windows and doorways, stay as far back from the window as possible as it will make it harder for someone to spot, and don't forget your sniper rifle fires a tracer, so take a shot move away from the window completely and then take another shot..
hope this helps,
PS. playing Rush is a good way to level up fast, and sometimes when defending some maps, run around with the shotgun with the more powerful ammo and you soon get lots of kills too :D
I like most of the maps, the only one I dont like is the rush map with the small island on and the GOL Magnum is probably the best sniper rifle imho

big game update when i logged into it this morning, waiting for it to finish :O

I ran into 7 people from the same clan using a server that was described as Public as their own little scrimming arena. Was funny as hell that the player count on my team would drop after every round. Just freaking sad what some people will do against a group of randoms.

Alright, I'm thinking of throwing in for the PC version, but I don't know whether my system can handle it well enough. My specs:
500GB HD
4GB RAM
ATI Raden 4850 Graphics 1GB
AMD Turion X2 Ultra 2.3GHz
So... is it worth the purchase with this equipment?

Hmm...might cut it close. I don't think you'd be able to play with high settings...my single 5770 lagged out a bit on high before I got my second one. The 4850 isn't the greatest, but I'm sure it's playable on low or med-low settings.
The proc should be able to handle it...but the clock is kind of low. Is there a way for you to install it off someone elses's CD to see?

Anyone else have input? I've got my debit card ready to go, lol, I just want to know I'm not wasting my money.

Awe screw it, Im buyin it!

You should be able to play it, just unsure of how high of settings. Hope it works out for you.

Seeing as I do 100% of my gaming on a laptop, I'm used to low-end graphics

In that case, go for it.
I'm sure you'd probably shat if you played BC2 or other high graphic games on a high end desktop like mine or something better :P

Well I have not played 360 BC2 first hand, but I'd be willing to put my comp up against a PS3 or Xbox360 for a graphics comparative type deal. Since it's the same game, I'll bet it all lies in the computer's graphics cards, and the TV/monitor used (for both 360 and PC)

Except I have about 20 games I cycle through. As it stands, if I fly to another island for CAP, I have to squeeze myself, my Class As, my BDUs, boots and gear, clothes for however many nights, and PT gear in my 2-seat plane. Space is ALWAYS at a premium for me, so the room taken up by a single disc and container to safely move it can be a deal-breaker.

Exactly :aok play the game in HD, Serenity when you load the disk, theres an option you check, either run this CD while playing game OR click here to run game online without CD in the CDrom, check that one and your good to go, once its loaded and you verify its code when you go online, you join EA (free) and that code is logged with them, you can also have a certain amount of persona's also.

When you install a game onto Steam with a disc all of the game data is transferred over to your computer, just as if you downloaded it.
At least that's the way CS:S and E:TW are.

Its done!!! Setting up now!

Zoom is right -- medic shooting more than 4-7 round burst kills your accuracy. I try for 2-3 before a slight break. Also, so used to BF2's medic key binds, that I keep hitting five, then searching for 3 to get to the paddles. I'm playing mostly conquest as that's what I was I liked, but the maps get to be really known. Every once in a while I'll find someone killed me from a unique position via kill cam. Kill cam for snipers is great -- makes em move more often :)
-
Alright who and how am I adding? :D

Okay this is driving me NUTS is there any way to TOGGLE crouch?

no you have to hold it down, just remap it to another key thats what i did, it sure made it easier :aok

lol yep sometimes your the windsheild and sometimes your the bug, i seem to do alot better when people aint using me for a spawn, gawd i hate that lol i find great spots then next thing presto horde looking over my shoulder lol
-
Look at it this way in BC2 your K/D ratio is not what you need to be concerned with it's your W/L ratio. People need to learn that if you are spawning on a lone recon in a good area, they need to crouch and head out of the area mo riki tik and not draw attention to yourself. Plus it's good that if you spawn in as recon to drop an ammo box for the fella. On that note I wish more people would drop their freakin ammo boxes. That is by far one of the more annoying things your team can do to you.
-
I can't seem to do anything right...constantly getting plugged in the head by unexploded 40mm nades (which is what they should have fixed, a ghey game-the-game move from COD)
Can't hit jack with a sniper, seems my XM8 or XMB whatever is a worthless gun even compared to the pistols...put 4-5 rounds into a sniper, he turned around as I was putting 8-9 more into him and he two shotted me with a 1911...think I'll stick to AH for a bit.
-
Don't know about Ruskie 40mms but US have to make 3 complete rotations before they arm. It just depends on whether it is a high or low velocity*(The M386, M397, M397A1, M406, and M433 rounds arm within 14 to 27 meters (46 to 89 ft). The M361 and M441 rounds arm within 2.4 to 3 meters (8 to 10 ft)). I wouldn't even want to think of what a getting hit with one before it armed would feel like.

Hmm...oh well.
Another thing I don't get is why/how guys can hold the trigger down and unload a clip w/o losing much accuracy...I have to shoot in burst if I'm to shoot more than 20-30ft away to get hits...
Guess I need to get off the free for all style games and play some squad rush. Anyone gonna be on tonight? Be cool to get some guys together and do some squad rush.
-
just got it to rent for my xbox 360. Graphics are amazing
So is there not a offline split-screen multiplayer? All I can find is online multiplayer but I want to be able to play with my friends 1 on 1. Thats been a feature for every combat game since Goldeneye 64, I cant believe that they wouldnt include it!
-
Shotguns are way too underpowered as well...im sorry but a slug to the face would kill someone, not tickle their fancy.
-
Yeah, it feels like I have to put a whole magazine into someone to get a kill. While my aim is probably a contributing factor, I feel like it takes a few too many bullets sometimes. I try to play on the hardcore servers where bullet damage is increased and no silly killcam, among other things.

I was looking for HC servers, all I played on cOD4 and COD5. Silly that it takes 10+ bullets to kill a guy. I was standing in a window and 3 guys were by the charge diffusing it, all looking away. I opened up and went right to left, I killed 1 guy and had to reload my gun... :huh

Just wait till you get the magnum rounds upgrade people tend to drop a little faster. :)

Was wondering when you get those upgrades...I have gotten the second achievement with me XM...dont rly like the FN2000 much...but no upgrades for the gun...
-
I'm not positive when the upgrade/specializations appear, I think they are tied to general progress/rank. I believe they are universal upgrades that you get regardless of what kit your using at the time. There's probably a website someplace that says when you get which ones.
I've spent most my time in the assault kit, and I agree I didn't care for the FN2000 much. The loss in stopping power and accuracy weren't worth the trade in rate of fire IMHO. I used the XM8 for a long while at least until I got the M416, which I then ditched in favor of the M-16 which is the last gun unlock and my favorite.
-
There are several guns that once you get the stars you need from them you probably won't touch again. The FN2000 is one of those.
-
For some reason, late at night, my computer LAGS like a mo'fo, which has really been annoying me.
Engineer and Medic are my least favorite. I got myself up to the SCAR for engineer and said screw it. Still on that lousy starter kit for medic, but I prefer using the Thompson. Assault I got to the XM8 and kinda hung out. Recon... I LOVE recon. I just which I could get something along the lines of a .50...
-
just logged my first 5 hours with BC2, in BC1 I was always recon so I decided to pursue my career in BC2 :D
Already up to the 12X optics, and I LOVE hardcore mode. Recon just isn't fun when it takes 2-4 bullets to bring down a guy, but now in hardcore...it only takes one :)
The most fun for me is getting somewhere nice a secluded, looking through the scope and marking enemies, its ecspecially pleasing when as soon as you mark them your entire team starts shooting at them...and they within 5 seconds of being marked :D
AWESOME game, BC1 but better, I dropped my MW2 game for this...it was well worth it.
-
Having a blast with BC2. great game
I have searched for the Army of Muppets server and can never find it in game. Using gametracker.com i can find 2 Army of Muppet servers that are online. Really looking
to hook up with you guys, but Im not having any luck connecting.
Im bkdrex so add me to your list

are any of you guys using ventrilo?

if anyone got a friends request from PaFire11 that would be me...

Man I just tried HC and did horrible...2/6, seems like everyone wants to sit back at their own spawns and play the waiting game.
-
BloodStump... just add me, watching a head shot at 1000 yards is truely amazin lol anyone Recon with C4 and play stickybomb with it? when your hiding and they run by just toss it and it will stick to them, make sure your close enough, then let them run off (hopefully to there squad) then detonate LMAO oh the carnage :devil

After a few rounds I got the hang of it...went positive once or twice...I still need to learn the sniper...can't hit a thing unless they are standing still for 5 seconds.
The good thing is this really isn't "killcam" like in COD...in COD it showed you their screen. I could get used to it, but need to get used to the HC 1-2 shot kill...it seems as though I still have to put 5-6 rounds into someone for them to die, with my XM8, though.
-
I had a blast with the AoM's last night, despite the fact I went negative every round LOL.
-
Voice Com's help, if one side is using ventrilo and there communicating back and forth and the other side without vox just don't have a chance, this game is so team oriented you almost need Vox.
-
I agree. We should get a few guys together tonight...maybe 9-10est?
-
i should be on around then, nascar's running at Bristol tonight and i love watching racing at bristol, Ill hook my PC up to my TV that way i can do both at the same time lol
-
Normal mode, no kill cam or spotting is the best way to play BFBC2, keep it old school ftw.
I've been playing recon a lot lately, mainly with the M95,12x optical scope and magnum ammo! It's just an amazing setup to use as it's one shot kill to the head and seems like upper chest too, I know it flat out kills people at close range with a single hit to the body.
How many of the Aces High Muppets play BFBC2, I'm sure The Few's BFBC2 community would love to play against you.
My friends list was reset for some reason, feel free to add me. Game ID is Kazaa.

Really nice, a K/D of 13 is fantastic. I think my highest K/D was 21 without a single death in a round.
I did 81/9 yesterday.

Does AoM have vent/TS server going?
Give me the info and I'll pop on for a couple of rounds.

Sheesh that's nuts... I consider it a successful round if I break even in the K/D department hehe.

Sheesh that's nuts... I consider it a successful round if I break even in the K/D department hehe.
Same here! My overall KD is around .80 or something.

whats the AOM server full name?
-
Army of Muppets
-
Does anyone know if the Army of Muppets' server client is up to date (R7/v524160)?
The latest client improves hit detection for me, a lot! For some reason I could never get hit markers on people, could have also been the lag.
P.S: You gents also need to turn kill cam off.
-
Secret to kill cam is once you make your kill, sprint fast then crouch, it usually disorients them as to where you were, unless they call in a mortar strike then hope your far enough away . its a great game love the different aspects of playing.

anyone seen the new expansion for arma 2? looks pretty good too

You probably have to go to http://veteran.battlefield.com/ (http://veteran.battlefield.com/), and link your Xbox Live details to your EA account. The site looks to be down now. It was pretty sketchy before the downtime when I registered my games to get the Veteran rank on the PC version. It's been down for about a week or so now. Hopefully be ready soon.

does the Xbox 360 use the same multiplayer setup as the PC version or does it use that crap they call matchmaking like COD?

You can either automatically get thrown into a server or pick your own.

anyone play on XBOX live? Im Branch37 look me up. :joystick:
-
Looks like a new patch with a boatload of fixes! The main things ?I like are the M60 being toned down and the shotgun being toned up.
-
what do the majority play here? I'm debating getting this but not sure if i should get it for PS3 or PC. Never played FPS on a PC so I might end up wanting to go FPS on my PC if it's a pain.
-
TYhere's a bunch of us who play PC here. I think only a couple have it for PS3.
-
PC. Always and only. I'll post an image to match this when I get on a non-school-proxy server.
-
Yea you want the PC version better grafics and all around playablity
-
Its fun till you unlock all the guns, then it gets boring.

that shouldn't be a problem, on MW2 i use the L86, RPD and M4A1 most the time and those are the guns you start with. guess PC it is, Thanks all.
guess everyone use the mouse and keyboard, this could be really bad for and great for everyone else. :D

Zoom, its actually funny. If you look at the range/damage of all snipers, M24 is actually the best. It has more balanced Accuracy/range. All the other guns are more focused on one thing.

EXCEPT the GOL

Freight D0g 0 of Dog is a zero, on X360.
Just started it up, I do like the bigger maps to allow more gameplay options than the epileptic run and gun of COD.
-
EXCEPT the GOL
the M24 is better than the GOL as well? What you talking about?

No, the M-24 is a better balanced weapon than all the other snipers EXCEPT the GOL. The GOL is the best all-around sniper's rifle.

-
Got it the other day...going by JRskipper on the servers.
-
Started playing it a few weeks ago. I am 'daddog' in there also. It is a lot of fun and I like the quick fix, short matches. Sometimes I only have 15 minutes and those are perfect. My son who is a natural played for me a few times and really ranked me up. :D Graphics are very nice!
-
Yeah I wanted to be Reschke on there but someone already has it.
-
I suck at the same but I also spend little time on it. When I get burnt out from AH I usually don't do good in BC2...but I'll usually play a few matches of Rush. It'd be cool if we could get a group of guys to do squad rush...go into a server and own guys. :)
-
OK i'm on and it will take a little getting use to but had fun. All the names i use were already taken, so i went with FreakoSuave. If it's ok I'll write yalls names down and add them tomorrow unless you beat me to it.
-
I'm always up to join some AH folk in a server. Again, SereneOne
-
Did the patch tone down the magnum ammo on snipers also? Played a bit Saturday night and finally unlocked the GOL (haven't focused on sniping until this weekend). I'm liking the SVU as it's got decent damage, ok rate of fire, and is silenced. I usually pair it up with the 6 shot revolver which can be a single shot, single kill pistol.

Anyone know what the difference is between 'hard core' and a regular server? Could not find anything in the read me file.
-
Hardcore you take a few more hits before you die i believe, i never really paid attention to that , ill have to test it out later
-
Thanks Soulyss.

Actually I think it's the opposite, damage is turned UP you can shrug off fewer hits. In my experience it only takes a couple to send you back to the spawn point selection screen. Those servers also tend to turn off things like the death camera, the ability to see what squad-mates are doing before you spawn to them, and the mini-map. In theory I like the idea but in practice I generally prefer to play the standard game, on some maps it get's really frustrating getting sniped and not being able to tell where it's coming from. More realistic? probably, but I find it less fun.
-
Hardcore is like Call of Duty, 1, sometimes 2 bullets and u are done. can't run across an open area knowing u'll take a couple of hits but regenerate behind cover. Actually u don't regenerate w/out a medikit in BF.
-
Thanks Soul, that was a help. :)
Ok, hard core is more like Project Reality (to a small degree). I really enjoyed that. Spawn times were long, and longer each time you died. In that game you really did not want to die and played very carefully. I guess I go back and forth. It can lead to some real frustration when you are getting sniped, but don't know where. You sure stick your head out less. :) Then again the fast 10 minute action makes for a nice quick fix. Sometimes it was 20 minutes before I saw an enemy in Project Reality.

Sometimes if you aren't wounded the blood will go off screen but yes you don't regenerate. A huge plus. I love how you get more points when the guy actually dies (if you get an assist) depending how much you hit him.
daddog,
HC servers are much more realistic and that's all I played on COD4 and COD5. I hated emptying an entire clip into someone before they died!
-
I refuse to play any non-hardcore server. If I shoot someone in the chest a couple times with an M-16, they had BETTER die! I hate the killcams, because they're gamey, and I find regular invites the horrible spray-and-pray n00bs that have prevented me from playing any other online FPS. Hardcore results in the perfect balance between all kits I find. Too many of one type and you will lose, and all specialties have strong weakness and advantages that you DO encounter in every match.
If anyone is looking for an AH-like environment, I'm in a clan that is mostly 30+ retired military folks. We play for fun, none of the childish stuff, and operate 4-5 of our own dedicated servers. If you're interested in joining up, or just hanging out, PM me for server and Teamspeak info.

My short time i played last night I played a regular arena and was rather annoyed by unloading in to a guys back and him turning around and returning fire. To hardcore i go.

Yup. Here's my story:
I was standing outside the window of a MCOM with 3 guys around it, crouched, all backs turned on me. Opened fire (I admit I held the trigger down, it was about 4-5 feet from me to them) and killed 1 guy, injured another and got popped with a few bullets. I Love hardcore servers now.
-
sounds like MW2, i play that on PS3 and just want to throw the system out the window some times.

I hate the guys who spray clips into people every time in COD...IMO BC2 it seems you have better accuracy when you use burst fire.

Theres some guy named aceshigh .... he was yellin hack hack all the time running around like crazy lol, meanwhile i was watched guys getting booted by PB for the use of aimbot and other cheats, i do like how you get banned for using hacks. :aok

I am glad PB is a bit better...in COD4 the hacks are/were very sophisticated. I was a head admin/owner for a gaming community...when they initiated the hacks, it also blocked us out of RCON (server admin tool) so we couldn't kick the guy unless we used PBPowerPoints. Man it sucked, but we did allow the guys in the server to nade switch (drop a nade by the hacker then switch sides) for the time being...they had fun. :)

Sent out some Request from FreakoSuave. I could just sit in the APC and just use the machine gun all day and have a good time, this is going to be like crack.
-
Sent out a request last night to many of you who posted in this thread. :)
-

am I being a total newb....more than likely.
AH has really been my only game but I thought I should branch out :D

Once you learn the controls and get comfortable using a real gaming system. :devil You will see that you have a hell of a lot more fine control than you do on a console.

This is the first game i have used a keyboard and mouse to play and it really isn't that hard to get use to. Now I'm thinking about getting a mouse with a few more buttons, my pinky finger is about useless when i need to crouch and move around in game.
-
i prefer PC games just for the reason of using the keyboard and mouse, using the mouse for all your looking around, i have the Razor Gaming backlite keyboard and mouse,It's a 6 function mouse so i have crouch and sprint, cycle weapons, shoot, aim, and grenade all mapped in, the keyboard also has extra keys and hotkeys, the mouse and keyboard are like a rubberized material, feels great and fingers dont slip off the keys when the fighting is intense, and in this game it gets that way real fast
-
I`m getting the hang of it
helped to unplug my rudder pedals tho :rolleyes:
flatout game

I had that same problem with my throttle. Damn guy kept spinning to the right.

Yeah mine spun to the left...so I just disabled a few things...its a pain for me to unplug the X52 every time I want to play BC2...I suck in the chopper anyway.
-
I had the same problem with my X52 i positioned my throttle halfway and the spinning stopped, or just unplug it, but i use it for the heli's
-
Something isn't right on my machine...can't find any servers even with no filter options selected...this is since the last patch.
And SP still doesnt work.
And my res keeps going back to 1024x768...what the hell did they do to this game?
