Okay, after like playing it for many MANY hours, I can say it's the best online game I've ever played.

Download the 600 MB now, you won't regret it! (Unless you have a Geforce 4 or older card as they can't run it at all. )

I'll play it on my wife's computer, she has a 6600 . My 1200MHz Athlon/GeForce3 isn't going to cut it.

Oh, and come play on my clan's server! )-SiN-( TX Killing Spree -- 70.84.13.58:16567

its pretty good, kind of sucks that you can be instantly killed upon spawn... had a lot of deaths within 3 seconds of spawning. what is your user name viper? im bankieVR6 and i play on your clan server.

I play under "Viper007Bond" for the moment. Not tagged up as I didn't know account name = player name and I'm too lazy to make another account just for the demo.

BTW, I think this game is a bit popular:




It's also one of the top played games now: http://www.xfire.com/xf/index.php

would my GeForce 4 Ti 4200 make it?

I bought the original battlefield back like 3 years ago or whenever and played it like 45 minutes total and it's never been touched since. just couldnt get into the game at all.

So i dont think i will download this.

Nope, GeForce 4 cards aren't supported as I said above.

Really?

ill give it a go dont think my comp can handle it. but worth a try.

ill get it on xbox360
when its out

GForce4 are not supported

check the game sites for info, I heart of some driver problems......

the newest NVIDIA driver may not work with BF2

the demo comes with the newest compatible driver for nvidia cards... i think its 77.50

77.30

Well.... lets put it this way.
I bought Vietnam a year ago and it's sat on my shelf every since....

ohh man im getting 50k download speed 2hours to go lol. when it started it was on a happy 200k.

but my service provider chokes the connection after about a minute of downloading somthing.

i hated teh original battlefield 1942 and the desert combat mod (or whatever he mod was that everybody played), but this is awesome, i'm planning on playing quite a bit of this game

i cant wait for it to finish DLing XDDDD

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

liek cnat wait for teh dl be finish!!!

Can a P3 733mhz w/ 384mb o' ram and a GeForce2 MX-400 32mb run it?

Let's find out!!

Err...phix...

Yeah, wel, it only took me like 20 minutes to download at around 455kb/s. Yeah, it didn't run.

I've a GeForce4 Ti4200 thats mildly overclocked.. i can push it some farther bc its W/C'd.. will it run? (i have an O/C'd 1900+ @ 1.95ghz.. also watercooled)

Good game, but I doubt I'll go out and buy it. I'll probably play it for two months and put it up.

This game is teh pwnage!!! Just played for several hours online. Although, when i created an account it said my email address/password was already in use.. Then i typed in my Gmail address with same password, and it works... wierd.

Anyways... Being Commander is awesome!

dooooooooode i love this game, i am so buying it when it comes out.


i love being a medic and reviving dead people :]

Hehe, i've heard you also can kill peolpe with that thing. Just like a knife-kill just with electricity.

omg im so gonna try that.

I played the demo and it does haul ass,

but, when I play with more than 16 players, it gets choppy. Is it my video card or my processor because I wanted to replace my video card with a 6800 GT (if I can find one dirt cheap).

what are you specs?

my game as smooth as a baby's bottom when i play in 32 player (i havent tried to play in anything bigger)

just got my 9800 pro back from the shop and DAMN this game is so much better with it.

As it figures out, it was only choppy because those servers were pretty laggy. I guess it doesnt lag as much.

I have an amd 64 3200+
Gigabyte motherboard
1GB Kingston High Performance Head Spreading Ram
ati radeon 9600 SE 256mb (more like a 128 though)
and a bunch of case fans.

I plan on getting the geforce 6800GT overclocked when I get the money and maybe another stick of 512 mb kingston ram.

I have a 2.6GHz P4 with 512 mb DDR RAM and a Radeon 9600XT (128DDR RAM). Nothing spectacular but it runs almost perfectly on 64 player servers.

can someone humor me with a couple of screen shots please?

The accounts are tied to GameSpy/FilePlanet, so if you have an account there...

Too big to post (1600x1200), so I'll link to them: http://images.viper007bond.com/games/bf2/

Damn, I've tried to install it but when it runs it says a component 'something or other' is missing, it says reinstalling might solve it but it still dosn't work... I'll try a different one...

Damn, now I've read the thread I've relised that my GeForce 4 MX440 isn't going to cut it ah well....

pooned

To add insult to injury I've just come second in the La Sarth II endurance race on GT4..





By a whole lap....
