I found the best way wasn't to change the con file but to actually do it in-game using the console, that way I can modify it for each round, depending upon what server I'm on, asl ong as the game is up and running then all I have to do is after entering them for the first round is hit the up arrow and be able to change jsut the number, means I can tweak it in game to see what affect it has.

I like playing Dragon Valley and shooting the chooper pilots on the carrier, funny how many you can kill in a round, ppl keep hoppingi n and it just makes it easier for you.
Well it works out for me I'm leaving mine at 50 amd dropping the other down to .06000.... or whatever, most of the time it is an improvement. Plus if it makes me think I'm shooting better... well... cool
I tried 50 first up, was a great improvement... then tried 400.... sucked big time, couldn't have hit anything with the broad side of a barn, lol.
So now gonna try 40...
So now gonna try 40...
For a while I've been getting annoyed at the obvious hacks etc, but whilst playing today ran into quite a few of them, and started thinking how pointless it was, I'd see too many hax then move on to another server have a couple of good rounds then have a break then repeat. Started thinking it was all funny, then had a guy that walked though my claymore, it detonated, he walked over and killed me... He was then playing seriously hiding etc, and I thought why? We can't kill you, why not stand in the middle of the road, lol.
Anyway after seeing a couple of other unkillables I decided to move on and found a 'clean' server and enjoyed myself, was just thinking that when I achieve something in the game, rank/medal/ribbon etc then at least I know I achieved it (it may only be virtual but its still satisfying). The poor haxors, well they get all the medals, ribbons etc, but whereas mine are only virtual, theres are even less, so anyway you have to laugh at em, its not worth getting angry at, its just silly.
At least real players can get involved in tournies etc, and there the experience gained in 'real' play will pay off.
Plus from what I've heard these Hax can cost quite a few bucks... additional money spent so you can easily virtual kill someone in a virtual land, as part of a virtual war, lol. Now that has to be the FUNNIEST part of the hacks.
Shit next haxor I see I might just stand in front of him 10 times and let him kill me, what difference does it make, about the only thing the kills will do is alter my K/D score, and thats pretty bad anyway, lol.
I'm getting a lot more enjoyment out of a round everytime I laugh at em now, lol.
Happy Hunting

Plus its not like they aren't charging you enough for the game in the first place, now they are also selling off your screen space to advertisers, just another reason why I wont be playing this truly fucked up game.
After all its my bandwidth that thewy are using, maybe if the game had been free because they had sold the advertsiing then it might be a different storey, but making me pay to see advertising is just an abuse of the system.
EA can go fuck emselves.

Hey they are easy targets
BF2 by far, 2142 sux bigtime, play is borring, and controls are b/s. If it were a mod for BF2 people still wouldn't play it.
I hate commanders who don't think before they drop arty, had a few sessions on Jalalabad where the squad have been on top of the hotel and had our own commander drop the heavy stuff on our heads, its hard enough getting to a vantage point as a sniper without being picked off on the ladder, then to have the commander drop arty on ya trying to get someone at the flag who is already dead coz the squad already hit em.
Also hate being punished for some numbnut climbing a ladder into a claymore, shit if I can see em as I climb so can the rest of my team, so whats the point in giving a punish, thats just stupid.
Gotta say, play with your clan and it just shows you how smooth a great the game can be... even if you lose you feel like you had a great game.

I just thought I'd loaded up with rubber bullets
Thanks for that
Yer non-real would be cool, more a case of honing the skills, combat is great for some things but to refine the techniques I'd just like to be able to practice.
Does anybody know of a mod that is a Weapons Range? The type where you can go in and practice with the different weapons?
Sometimes I just wish i could go and practice with the weapons, to learn all the particular variations, hone the skills so to speak.

You can install BF2 then SF then AF without patching but EF has to be patched before you can install, then you have to patch it again over the top, is crazy.
Dragon Valley for IO... its wicked
Its weird coz servers that used to be high are now lower, but my local servers (WA) used to be really low like 30 - 40 (at most) are now in the 220 range.
Shit I've found it a lot easier to snipe, can sit around the edges of an IO and don't get any cartillery etc, plus enemies can't sprint and jump in a tank, it leaves em in the open longer, I'm enjoying it, plus no major glitches or anything.
Cool, thanks Cbass.
G'day everybody,
anyway, went onto a Sharqi map on Internode, and joined in late, only 21 on a 64, but wanted to give the 'no vehicles' a go.
Anyway the game was good, no hiccups, the ebb and flow was good, push here/there etc.
I'd come in as a sniper, pretty poor show for me, only managed 3 kills, anyway, spent most of my time running backwards and forwards capturing the CP's, after the game, my score showed 30 points total, with 6 of them being for kills and the rest being the CP's.
Yet when I checked the Top Scores, it had someone with a score of 11 under Flag Capture, now all I need to know is, was the score of 11, 11 flag captures or just 11 points? If its 11 flag captures then thats cool, as I only captured 8, but if its points then to me thats kinda whacked.
Anybody clear it up?

Yer theres enough 'fantasy' type games already, they've been done to death, if we wanted that type of game we'd still be playing Doom or Quake etc.
The move towards realism, whilst still retaining some gameplay is fun, it makes for a different level of enjoyment, plus the more realsitic the weaposn and the kits the better, because people have an expectation for what a series of weapons can actually do.
Of course they didn't go for full realism because that would destroy any gameplay, but they have kept a reasonable balance, I think they've pretty well succeeded when you can still see in excess of 20,000 players online at any time.

I've played all day and have yet to have any issues with it... go figure. Haven't played Jalalabad yet, but it might just be that map, everything else has been stable, and to be honest some weapons do seem fractionally more accurate.
Sometimes the installs of BF2 just get farked up, had to go into the registry and remove mention of BF2/battlefield etc before i could even re-install it previously.
Had no problems with it since though.
And I do like 1.4

When you're getting raped by armour bigtime and the flyboys are off somewhere else on the map... and the counts going down and down and they don't even try and give the rest of the grunts a bit of respite...
(this is mainly a gripe in AF)

Was on the EA forums and noticed a post that got closed down reasonably quickly.
It was regarding whether people would actually go to 2142 after all the issues of BF2.
It only had a page of responses before it was just locked, maybe they don't want it advertised (esp on EA forums) that the future interest in 2142 might not be as high as predicted.
Seems they allow the endless bitching about BF2 1.4, but not this, maybe they are getting sensitive about the bad press?

Yer just some chump trying to stir the pot, and irritate the crap out of everybody...
..a very obvious hoax, especially when you read he got his stats reset, so he's just got a gripe against EA/DICE
..a very obvious hoax, especially when you read he got his stats reset, so he's just got a gripe against EA/DICE
A lot of people play because they enjoy the scorringv system, and having their stats online, to suddenly close it down works against them in two way...
1. Some people want to keep playing BF2, they are not inclined to move to BF2142, especially after all the issues with the paches.
2. If you start playing BF2142, how long are the stats going to be available, not worth investing all your time and money and then find out they will just be deleted.
People are willingt to invest their time andm oney because they have an online version of the history, it can mean something to them, if its only going to be removed, then whats the point of it all.
People seeing this type of treatment will decide not to transfer across to BF2142, this will cost the corporate big wigs alot more money, and losing money is something they can ill-afford.
This is just another great big hoax.

Use this program. Please listen to me on this one. I've used many different cloning softwares and this one works the best. Hands down. It even comes as a free trial which works for a week. DO NOT REFORMAT if you don't need to due to viruses or something like that.
But to be honest format and reinstall, it means a fresh setup, and a nice clean os.
An excellent article.
Especially the sound card section, I was running BF2 with the onboard sound and it was still cool, but added in an Audigy card I had lying around and it is SO much better, seems to take off some of the pressure from the cpu as well.

Okay, you can also disable some services, here's a link which describes what the service is and what it is recommended you set them to.
http://www.beemerworld.com/tips/servicesxp.htm
Remember that you do need some of the services!!!!!
p.s if you disable a service and then reboot and your PC doesn't work or is worse, then you can restart the service or in a worst case scenario you can reboot into safe mode and restart the service.
Best bet is to do a trial and error, disable a service, write it down on a piece of paper, then reboot and try out the performance.
Some services are required to run and have Internet etc, others are loaded by XP just in case, even though you might never need them.
But as the people have said:
1. Remove programs you don't use.
2. Scan for SPYWARE
3. Scan for Viruses
4. Run MSCONFIG and stop any programs you don't want to start from loading
5. Clear out you Internet cache
6. If you aren't worried about restore points, turn it off (saves drive space)
7. Clear out temporary files
8. Use a program like REG-CLEAN to keep the registry tidy
9. Disable some of the services you don't use
10. Run a regular defrag (do it every few days when you are going to sleep)(some games like WOW cause a LOT of fragmentation of files)
p.s Remember not to have too many things running all at once, some people have games and browsers and chat programs and picture viewers all running at the same time, keep it to a minimum, and close some down as you don't use them etc.

Heres another one... your having a good round, personal kills are topping 20 (ie not via vehicles) you've got points for flags, defence etc, the clocks running down, and the enemy only has one flag left and you are all doing your best to slaughter them...
...you get killed and 'Hey Presto' you are now the enemy and getting slaughtered by your ex-countryman.
...and if you try and swap teams, well thats obviously a suicide, but it will keep you back on the losing side.

PoE2 is AWESOME... as to the foggy maps, I found them less foggy than some of the standard maps. It is excellent all the new weapons etc, being able to select Heat or Sabot in the tanks is a great idea.
I only downloaded it yesterday and already I think its the Mod that EA should have done, it seems so much better.
Now if only I could find some ranked servers for it.

I dropped the Hz down to 75, on 1280x1024 and getting a FPS about 100+ on a full 64 player game.
I'm using a 21" CRT so its still nice and crisp.

So if BF2 doesn't deliver 85 fps or 85 Hz?
What would it deliver then?

Okay,
I just want to know from the experienced BF2'ers which of the following is the best, and therefore the one I should use.
All settings are HIGH.
1024x768@120hz - 67 fps
1280x1024@85hz - 72 fps
1600x1200@75hz - 60 fps
Any thoughts?

Just you don't hate it when you can't seem to get it together in a round, everything you do seems to end up with you dead in too short a time.
Sometimes in a round it will feel good, everything is working and your score is going up, but then other times its the exact opposite. Just fucking hate it when it happens, lol.
Also hate emptying a whole mag from a FN2000 (zoomed in at close range) into an enemy and he up and kills you with a quick burst from an MP7...
(I also hate the fact I'm not as good as I need to be)

Knife and Pistol..... I suck
I'm only knew to BF2 and am still enjoying it, and trying not to take anything about it too seriously.
I do find myself on the wrong end of a mine of claymore, and I realise that I was the dumbass for not seeing it, so obviously I don't punish, in fact most times i don't punish unless a guy looks me in the face and then opens up on me, thats just dumbshit stuff.
I like to play sniper, and even though my stats don't show it I am improving (very slowly), and as I have read here that people get pissed off with snipers just sitting there and not going for flags, I've laso tried to capture my fair share each round.
Okay thats enough about me...
What I hate are the dumbarses who ignore the skull and cossbones get fragged by my claymore which is setup to protect my back, and then punish me.
Were they born stupid or did they have to train for it?

Easiest thing for EA/DICE to do is add a sound to it, that way commanders can still use it but it also gives a warning as it comes down.
Means it can still be used but unless people are not paying attention it wont be as effective.
Just needs to be a rustling sound of the chute etc.

I do like the idea that if you are sniping etc, and theres a likliehood of cartillery, just keep E pressed and you wont get killed.... will have to test it out
Funnt thing is I'd expect a glitch to keep occuring after someone commented, whereas a hack could of course be turned off.hilltop_skater wrote:

lol, if you guys are so good with a shock paddle or a knife against snipers, then why worry, they are obviously cheap kills for you?
I think its a good idea, make the tanks and APC's like the Attack chopeprs...
So many ppl complain about the strengths of some kits and yet a single person can operate a tank and all the relative strengths of the kits means squat.
It would make it more realistic, mabye the driver could operate the machine gun, but not the big arse cannon etc.
It would force a bit of teamwork into much needed areas.

That game is completely RUINED due to the fact that the sniper is extremely overpowered. One shot kills and laser designators are the two things that fuck up the game for everybody. You can't move in a tank for more than 20 seconds without being painted by a laser designator.
If you don't like the kit... don't play it. Stop the whining though, it wears thin, even to the noobs.
Well I use claymores to protect myself when I'm up high, don't use em as a 'primary attack' weapon. I prefer to pick off the targets at range.
One thing I can see would be beneficial is to have all the explosives C4/Mines/Claymores destructable though, as a Sniper you could detonate at distance and bring another level of play.
But have to agree that its only a game, shit I get pissed at mech whores, jet whores etc, but its just a game, shit if I'm getting nuked while sniping by a chopper I come back as a tank killer and shoot my missiles at em.
I would like to see an infantry AA option, but thats another sotry.
Its the game it is, and I'll be happy when the bugs are gone, and its just playable.
