well, the game sounds like fun, and it looks cool, I played it, but whenever I want to save my game, it's like playing slots... HOPE the game doesn't CDT.... 90 % of the time it does, and all my progress lost....
DON'T tell me it's my hardware.... QX6700, GF8800GTX, 2G RAM....  Likely it's not that compatible with vista, so anyone got any pointers?

okay, did the trick, but now all of a sudden new problem:

Whenever I join a NS server the dialogue sais: "This server only allows unmodified content pease revert to original BF2142 version"....  I go WTF? I have latest patch, NS... Still the same horse sh!t.  I reinstall the entire damn thing...  Same sh!t....

well...
Punkbuster is once again giving me pain for no apparent reason...  Every time I play bf2142 it kicks me after 30secs to 1min of gametime... 
Message is summin bout "PB not responding or something like that... "
I run BF under Vista, I got user account BS off, admin rights, Up-to-date fuckbuster, the whole shabang... and still the damn thing is trying my patience...

It just started today up until now it left me relatively in peace, but now all of a sudden....

Any thoughts?

who cares?  Tey're french....

I face the fact that all the guns are good, stock, unlock, whatever.  As someone put it:

10% gun, 20% skill, 70% situational.

Bauer is good for long range to mid-range fights, but if you're good enough, it's useful anywhere--even at point-blank.  Same thing for the SCAR-11.  Voss and Krylov are ridiculous close-quarters winners, but lack at extreme range, unless you have assault rockets on-hand.  Each has a strength and weakness--but if you put yourself in the right position, you can win any firefight.

The situation that you are placed in is what tests your skill, I can knock out people at long range with my rockets and single shot with the stock weapons. Mid range bursting and rockets, close range full auto, It just takes skill to know when and where to aim when you are in these different situations.

I love it when I'm recognised and people don't know it. (I said "It's 10% gun, 20% skill, 70% situation")

But if you're used to the same situation (IE: long-range sniper fights, close-range shotgun battles) and then suddenly thrust into a different one, odds are you are going to get owned. Like you said:

"It just takes skill to know when and where to aim when you are in these different situations."

It's still more situational than skill.

So true....

LOL everybody keeps saying voss and krylov are best for close quarters, poor on long range, while baur is supposed to be good at long range and poor close quarters.... 
I think it's funny, cuz I find it's the other way round...  I can't hit sh!t with the baur as soon as my target is beyond 10 meters...  And well Krylov and voss, range don't matter to me with those guns, just aim in their general direction, the bullets always seem to find their way to my intended target....

And I would really like that bestbuy scar skin.... looks too damn cool...  Unlike the standard one, it looks like you're holding a log with a scope mounted........  Yeah, well, I'll get over it....

Diablo kicks ass for its simplicity and intuitive gameplay, unlike all those other RPGs that require a university degree just to install the shit

-a couple of bayonets
-one luger 08 (real)
-2 K98 rifles (real)
-a german gas mask
-Band of brothers dvd series
-various model kits of german infantry and tanks, including Tiger and Wespe (artillery)
-some various items...

Plus I'm always on the lookout for authentic stuff, especially german equipment....

government and religion should be kept miles apart......

Christianity learned that lesson the hard way in the middle ages......

although he was a pain in the proverbial arse I'll actually miss him

especially his stupid sig..... it was so stupid that after a while without realising it I found it strangely amusing....

Allright allright I will taste the soup....  Now where's the spoon?

granted only its 5 inches high 5 inches wide and 7 inches deep....  you can place it where you want

I wish I knew what I wanted....

Che was a pioneer. He left a blueprint for all modern guerrillas to follow. He beat the largest stronger conventional military of Cuba, which was backed by the USA and other western powers, and helped carve out a non-aligned state that has successfully fought off outside interference for nearly 50 years.

Cuba, a non-aligned state?  Forgot about this huge country with harsh winters and lots and lots of nukes pointed at US and A?  Cuba was just a staging area for the soviets back in the days....  Forgot this incident at the Bay of pigs...?  Oh you never heard of that one......

PLUS I hate communists....  Always acting like they're the greatest thing since sliced bread... even that was probably a communist invention according to them....

As for the greatest military leader...?  They're all pretty good...  Maybe not Nelson, he got lucky two thirds of the Armada was sunk or had to make for the nearest port due to bad weather...  So he only needed to exterminate a few, weathered remnants of the armada...  If the Armada didn't face that storm, Trafalgar would have likely turned out very different....

Actually the greatest military leaders were the field officers, who literally led their men into battle and out again....  They're the unsung heroes of any war....  Generals may think they are god's greatest gift to mankind, but its the soldiers and their squad leaders who actually had to come up with the actual plan on how to win the engagement...

one more warning for people interested in zboard and other ideazon boards.....

just expensive paperweights...  half my keys aren't working..... like backspace... comma...question mark..... one shift key..... one part of the space bar.....

I'd say the best overall is the Asus Striker Extreme 680i board. But it's not that simple.

heard the striker extreme sucks...... thats why I ordered asus p5n32e-sli.....
computer store guy said he got less complaints with that one

That was a poor decision.

(Already got case, monitor and speaker system....this was originally just planned as an upgrade )

costs me round about 3000 euros which is round about 4000 USD.... at least this one will last more then two and a half years.....  if you got the money to spare...go for it....

Is that system not a bit too expensive. I think I can get that system for about 1700£

....which is round about 3000 euros......

My first rule on PC-ology: NEVER EVER go oem...  They just make expensive good looking paper weights, cuz thats all they're good for..... Except laptops, coz you haven't got a choice.....

as for warranty, I guess I'm just lucky, coz I've got a good working relationship with my local hardware store guy.... PLUS, he delivers grade A material, so I won't actually be needing the warranty until I need to upgrade it...  Granted, it takes a while until all items are delivered, but my local hardware store guy is cheap, so everyone's happy... except maybe DELL and other OEM manufacturers......

It would be nice, however this being said, it will probably only be temporary (if at all).  Nobody is really keen to accept laws from and pay taxes to a government wich is centered halfway around the world.... Hence the incident back in July 1776....

but, like, if it were to be someday, maybe only something vaguely resembling a unification, would be truly great and one step closer to global unification....

The first game I ever played with multiple players.... (yes I come from a time when multiplay was ......ooooohh....aaaaahhh.....) was Unreal Tournament the demo (well I played quake on network before that, but I'm talking action packed gaming here)

Well anywho...  I was always referred to as "the doc" since I was a certified medic...
So in the UT demo there was a bot (yes a bot) with the name  Doc Zenith...  I figured cool name, it's not trademarked, so I'll take it...  So at first I was always Doc Zenith or simply Zenith, but over time it became to long to type every time so I shortened it to DocZ a couple years back now...   However strangely, DocZ as a nick was apparently already taken in BF2 and 2142...  So in-game in BF I added 8472 as a suffix...  Clarification: Species 8472 are the only ones that can beat the living pis out of the Borg in Star Trek....  I too can beat the living piss out of the toughest poser aswell

my ambitions are to not play the game

Probably the smartest thing to do......

well, don't really matter if FF is on or off....
FF on

PRO: You inevitably get skills in aiming at the other team
PRO: Not likely to encounter nade spammage etc...
CON: Stupid noobs punish you if you accidentally tk them when they jump in front of you when you are emtying you clip at an enemy
CON: Stupid noobs who come running round the corner TK you because they are are so tense and don't look at the color of the uniform before pulling the trigger...

FF off

PRO: Stupid noobs can't punish you
PRO: Aiming skills are not a requirement
CON: More stupid noobs on these servers than with ff on
CON: Spammage all the way

There's more but these are most common, I think

get all unlocks....

Having fun whilst doing this....

Titan sucks

I will just say one(ish) word that silences all Voss whores who cross my path:


Krylov FA-37 AR

nuff sed

well, I never liked titan mode anyway, no action on the ground, even less when the shields are down...  Extreme slideshow effect onboard and in the vicinity of the titan...  Rounds last for ages and 3 days........

no, not my cup of tea, and if what you suggest will ever be implemented, I have even less incentive to play titan mode

sorry, when I go support, I take out my trusty shotgun, delivers more pain more accurately and more cool...

Auto support guns are for pussies who never dare go close and personal..... bah get a sniper rifle and snipe

BTW : Ganz actually does suck....

abusive language:
I caught an admin abusing his position, plus there was some sort of bug abuse or hack going on with him (REALLY!), I stuck it to him, and I'm about as subtle as an angry bull on a Texas rodeo...

So basically I get kicked for confronting that pubescent little prick on a power-trip...

My fault, I know, should have simply left the server and join a new one....

Well, here's another question (probably one of the stupidest questions since the dawn of ages):

Will Battlefield run when you have DirectX 10 installed?

(I searched the net for a suitable answer, but every site is so terribly vague and evasive on the question of backward compatibility)

Regardless of what that site says, I'd say they were hired by M$ to discredit the competition.

what he said

for the moment, until I get my new pc, I'll stay out of the titan.....  It's just a big slideshow up there....  Besides, I hate titan mode...  Somehow conquest seems more action-packed...

Well, I haven't got the pilum yet......  but it's on my list, I'm working on it....

For now: My favorite gun is and will always be the Krylov.... Uber accuracy and coolness, it's like a souped up AK-101 from BF2 (remember those days?).

But the coolest UNLOCK is the clark 15B  - Serious Killage.

I second that

great!!  Now you guys got me all confused......  Now I don't know what cpu to buy, plus I don't know for sure I should buy vista......

well, I found it frustrating, too....  So far I noticed, armour doesn't do shite....  If I wear heavy or light, I get knifed with same ease (if they get to me that is).  The only weird thing is: I tend to collect more dogtags when I'm support AND wearing heavy armour (I don't really like the armour, I need sprint more). 

For some reason, I can't collect as much dogtags when I'm a medic with light, or assault whatever you like to call it....

And then there's this weird universal karma limit I can't seem to cross...  When I'm trying to get the badge, I can't get more then five kills and then the round is over.... frustrating.....  But that's an entirely different story.
BF karma hates me....

okay then..... I think I know enough.... I'll hold off on Vista for the time being......  I already knew MS were smacktards when it came to stability and coding in relation to DirectX apps.  Now I see Vista is no different then XP in its first years.....

h&k all the way

Well, in march I'm takin a trip to the states, droppin in in LA and Vegas...  also planning on visiting the gun store...  But I already made my choice..... AK-47   since assault rifles are illegal here..... boohoo wussie government....  I am not even allowed to "rapid-fire" my 9mm at the shooting range here, or any gun of a caliber above .45   Sucks right?  I need to go all across the country to get to a range that allows my 30-30 winchester94

A plane is standing on a runway that can move (like a giant conveyor

speed and tunes the speed of the conveyor to be exactly the same (but

Will the plane be able to take off?

I am guessing you failed science classes.....

your answer is: no way in this space-time continuum....  A plane needs to acquire speed to create lift forces that accumulate underneath the wing.  The wheels have no other use than to propel a plane on the ground......

Break got an nsfw section

But I'm guessing you have to live on mars under a rock if you didn't already know that one......

then I gave up....

maybe I'm not smart enough for this game, but I can kick ass in BF!

so I am not completely demasculated
