I hate high graphics on bf2, even though i can run them i hate it. I love the game on low graphics i think it is more enjoyable for a sniper whore. anybody out there agree with me?

Hmph, I prefer the challenge. It's harder to spot the enemy, but it adds to the challenge. I don't like my game looking like arse when I have a system that allows it to run maxed out.

I mentioned this in an old thread a while back.

Notice the guy? Look at the shadows etc, makes it hard to see him doesn't it? (everything is maxed out, max anti-aliasing, lighting etc)

Now contrast with...

https://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~mccasey/bf2/screen115.jpg
Notice how there are no shadows? If somebody were to hide there I would see them instantly. (same as above except lighting is set to low instead of high.


EDIT: And I do do fine a as a sniper with those settings, 105th (currently) in the world for the sniper rifle.

I totally agree. (And lol @ the ferrarri thing). I can run everything on high with AA x4 but i choose to have everything low with Geometry on high so I can see further. It's MUCH easier to spot enemies and the fps improves greatly. Plus, with 4 gigs of ram, I load into the map in like 30 seconds.

more RAM doesnt mean it will go UBER speed...it only work to its max and the required speed for so-and-so amount of applications....from what i heard..

I run a 7900gt 256mb Ram 
clocks 615 core/1700 memory ( water cooling has been ordered, when it arrives I should be pushing 800 core/1800 memory )

I hate playing the game on High Textures or 4xAA everything looks cartoonish and horrible. With everything on high in a full 64man server I run average 95fps @1280X1024

You have a good CPU???

I get 50fps on a full 64 server with a 7900GT/A64 3000+ (1gb)
And sometimes lower, i need another gigabyte of RAM.

You need shot, I ran my game on low for a year because I had to, it took a deep physcological effect on me, all I could see was everything on low, and saw chinese dudes runing around with pkms slaughtering snipers..............................I like pie....

Lol seriously though, I think the shadows do have there pluses and negatives, makes the game look better, but yes you may miss someone once in a while since you cant see them.

How about you run on high except shadows, I find that the best, though to get the best fps atm with my system that still needs some more upgrading, medium I find is the best tbh.

Lighting on medium/high helps if you have dynamic lighting on medium/high, when someone shoot's they are basically lightbulbs.
