BF2S Forums Upgraded Rig = Better K/D ratio and accuracy?

My old computer was only able to run on medium at best....and at times i'd get kicked for "idleing" before i even started playing becuase it took the computer so long to load up.

my K/D was about .5 on avererage, getting killed by people i couldn't even see...choppers and 64player maps were off limits.  and at the end there it was non-stop jumpy lag.


Got a gaming computer, everything set to high and AA x4   My overall K/D ratio is over 2 now and 90% of my rounds I have 3x's more kills than deaths.

Oh and my accuracy has always been around 23%

It does make things better, one bad thing I've found is if your settings are all high, people can hide in shadows yet lower settings have non.

And the smoke(from buring vehicles etc) is great you think your hidden, but to someone with low settings your in clear view.

You just have to get used to playing and addapt to your higher settings, in the long run they do help.

Well on my rig at home I play well (very well, without wanting to sound arrogant), its a new(ish) rig runs BF2 at 85FPS+ usually sat at 100FPS.

I'm visiting family at the moment, using my bros rig to play, Athlon 3000+ only 1GB RAM and a geforce 6800, all low and its chugging along at about 25FPS. It makes kittens cry and I play like a fkin tard on it

So yeah I'd say a better rig can improve your game lol.

I play with a ball mouse, no mouse mat, 5600 gfx card, 1gig of ram. I average 40 FPS (1-3 While frapsing), an I play perfectly fine and still rape the face of people with £2000 rigs.
It wont make you a better player, you'll be able to see slightly further probably. whooo

I run the game on lowest settings on my comp (except draw distance which i've put up to 100%), and it runs ok. For those people that have low fps playing on medium, play it on low ffs.
The only problems i have performance-wise is that 2142's new explosions slow my game right down (ie top about 2-3 fps when the explosion is happening. and that includes supply crates exploding), the blurring effect that comes with shell shock or using the IT-33, which both give me low fps as well, and looking at titan shield when they're being shot at.

Now, whenever i go to my friends house, i play the game with everything on high. And it annoys the hell out of me a lot of time. Its those bloody shadows. Places in the game that are perfectly visible on mine are soooooo dark on his that i get killed when i wouldn't have done on low. However everything else looks nice so i'm sure if i got a decent comp and put everything on high except all the lighting effects it'd improve my game a bit. Not much though, its mostly just eye candy.

I know MY KD went up.

When I first had bf2, I had some 2.0 GHz processor, 512 MB RAM, GeForce 5700 128MB, and some slow shitty 20GB hard drive. I had every single thing on low, and it still was pretty laggy. Then I got a new computer, everything on high, with no lag. it was sooooo much easier to get kills and aim. Good computer will make you do much much better. But this isnt true for everyone, as there are some rpetty retarded people out there.

easiest to start with is ram....

2 gigs is best...

I'm no comp wiz tho...

lol, that would be pathetic!  I'm just thinking about upgrading to help speed up video production etc.  But just wondering how much I might benefit, and other do people benefit from "SUPER UBER RIGS"  when playing BF 2142!
I'm also kind of wondering if my current system will be able to play the new "Enemy Territory?"

I play on my laptop, which has 1GB RAM and a 2.0 GHZ processor and ATI Radeon Xpress 200 graphics card and all the setting on low and i lag here and there, but i can play 32 man servers and i can see 88%. Also, my k/d ratio is 1.8
