[PC] Battlefield 2

Hey, I have played the battlefield series since it first came out. I bought 1942 at release. I have been playing BF2 for a while now, sort of sporadic since it's release since I have been getting my Masters degree but I love the game still. Here's my current stats:

Name: [MDK]Garthvader
Rank: Master Sergeant
Global Score: 36,525
Kills: 12,826
Kit: Medic, Anti-Armor
Specialty: Helicopter gunner

My clan is really a group of friends we are only about 6 members but all the members are good players.

Let me know next time want to play. I frequent the OBC uk server quite often now that it is summer time. MAybe I can catch one of you there.

I did not link to BF2s.com because it was leaving out over 3,000 of my points for some reason.

How ya doing, buddy?

cool. I will try to be there on Friday night. I do not have X-fire but maybe I will get it. BTW, in regards to the patch, besides the well known crash to desktop issue, is anyone else getting connection problems randomly when playing. I read that some other people were getting this in the BF2 forums, I was wondering if you experienced it also. I have not been able to finish my last 3 fights because of this and am about to just trash the game till they patch this godawful crap patch. I can't remember the last time EA actually realesed a patch w/o having to repatch it. Ughh...getting frustrated with their lack of testing skills. I like the new features but the new bugs make the game really hard to play. BF2142 not to far off, maybe it will be less buggy.

How ya doing, buddy?

LOL just happened again, I almost puched my monitor and then I remembered new wide screen LCD punch your face instead so I did that. Maybe I will send my brain damage bills to EA

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

well, hopefully you wont have to deal with it because its probably one of the worst experiences ever. Imagine having the probability of a crash to desktop as soon as you press the join game button, or having the lost connection bug after you scored 80 points in a fight and then losing it all (3 times in a row). Or the server browser moving servers around when you press on them. I'm quite sure EA doesn't test anymore.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Strange, everyone on the BF2 forums are having the same problems that I am.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Inhert:
If you want some recommended servers, I regularly play on OBC the uk one, Badass clan, and Elite Sports. While OBC and Elite Sports are overseas and generally are listed with a ping of around 150, I never or at least rarely experience lag. Badass clan generally pings low. Most of the time these servers have good players so they are fun to play on.

I have a lot more in my favorites but I don't remember them now. Maybe I will post them later.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I wouldn't mind playing just name the time an place. Just wondering, are any of you part of the get payedto play BF2 thing?

Most amazing jew boots

Dammit, I actually was playing BF2 with my bro and completely forgot to check back here to see when you guys were playing Sorry guys. I need to remember to get Xfire.

get Paid to play is a free stat tracking system that you register for and if you put in 15 hours a month on their servers, you get registered in some pretty good drawings to win prizes. Its comletely free so its not really a big deal.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

how do I add a link to my stats as a signature like some of you guys have? Does it auto update?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

was out with some friends getting drunk and playing cards. I guess I will try to tune in next Friday. If anyone is free before then, I'd be willing to hit up a game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I have been playing a little bit mostly on 260 pimpshack or incognito though I like 260 better because there are more maps. What video card did you get? I recently bought a 7800GS because I still have AGP but this is a kickass AGP card runs BF2 like a charm.

I just bought BF2 Special Forces for $4.99 so I will be getting that in the mail soon. Hopefully some people have that so I can get some GFF squading in on it

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ok finally got off my lazy ass and installed Xfire. My name is garthvadr3 just like my GFF nickname. Started inviting some of you from the list to my buddy list. Hopefully we can get some gaming in later tonight.

wow those games kinda made me want to punch myself in the face repeatedly. Not the best, but maybe next week will be better. I need to get my mic working again so I can use voip. My jack broke on my SB Audigy 2. Anyway, after that last game I went and got my expert pistol badge with a score of 190. That was fun

I was speaking idiomatically.

wow I pretty much almost pissed my pants, that was funny.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Awsome, this is one of the few series that I play pretty much at least a few times a week year round, until they actually develop a sequel. It was like that with 1942 (I played this one from day 1 till BF:V was released and even after) and vietnam for me. Great series, I hope EA improves their development of the game so that its again on par with BF1942 (Bug wise I mean).

FELIPE NO

I have been really buisy also and havn't been able to play much, but I should be able to play this Friday, at least as of now I think I can. So, if anyone still wants to attempt a session Friday I am up for it.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

well I just kinda moved back to Florida so I was out of commission for about a week. Seems like things are settling down again so I can probably play this week, As long as nothing comes up.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

damn, I forgot to check in and play because I was too busy trying to set up my new cell phone plan. eeerrg

There's nowhere I can't reach.

yay 1.4!!!! I hope its perfect cause damn it took a while, and I even beta tested for this one. Don't know what went on after beta 2 though, I hope people that run 4x AA don't see blinking grass anymore because its retardedly annoying

How ya doing, buddy?

hopefully I wont forget again...been really bad at that since I moved back to FL, sun must be getting to my brain.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I got a key. What do you guys that have played 2142 think of it overall? I personally am really dissapointed with the state of the game so far. Now I understand that it is a beta, but there are some key things that are wrong with the game that shouldn't be like:
1) The controls actually seem to lag. For instance, when I press the run button, it seems like it tries to perform the operation twice, thus making the process of initiating a run laggy, The same goes for switching weapons, shooting manuevering, and any other action in the game. This miffs me because, how many Battlefield gamers have they made? The control scheme is basically the same thing in all of them. Why is it screwed up now? they should have it down by now. Especially since its a public beta and people are supposed to test the game. I can't even get to the testing part because it controls so badly I can't stand the game.
2)The tanks control too slowly, are too floaty and don't do enough damage. How many times should I have to shoot an infantryman with a tank round before he goes down??
3)The game overall seems to lag A LOT, but I don't mean graphical lag, I am talking serious, we are jumping back and forth in time internet lag.
4) All aiming systems are fubar. It is too hard to aim because they tried to design these stupid flashy aiming reticles that just end up getting in the way and not being accurate. The scope on the assault gun, as soon as you start shooting lights up with this annoying blue muzzle flash that thereafter disables you from seeing the fuck target you are trying to aim on thus making the scope USELESS.
5)The VTOL Jet/helos control amazing though, contrary to the crap that infests the rest of the games control.
6)There is no chart showing your rotation when you are in a walker, noway to tell your alignment of the head to the legs. The walker should have one just like the tank does.
7)Titans die way too fast.

Overall the game has major potential but oh my god EA/Dice get on the ball and get it right. Let me knjow your testing opinions.

Also, anyone up for BF2 tonight?

How ya doing, buddy?

it runs pretty well on my Athlon 64 3500+, Nvidia 7800GS, SB Audigy 2ZS, 2gig of DDR3200 ram. AA is not as big an issue in this one cause it has a cleaner look than BF2.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

man. I agree. Great game guys, I really had a good time. My first session since I moved back to FL, and a great welcome back.

FELIPE NO

anyone else get laggyness in the controls on 2142. for me it was ruining the game. I would press run and it would run a second later, unlike bf2, where it runs when you press the run button. The same goes for most other functions also, like crouch prone, and sometimes even shooting.

Seems like I might be sticking to BF2.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

dammit I missed the session if there was one last night. Sorry. On a better note I did finally get my expert Anti Armor badge

That makes 6 expert badges. Working on Expert Assault next.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
