well..if they DO read this board then...id be MORE than happy to sit down and help them CONSTRUCTIVELY get bf2 up to a DECENT and ACCEPTABLE level. cause well...it needs a lot of work...optimizations etc. and being on a fresh reinstall *< 24 hours old* bf2 actually runs semi decent now...*30-40fps* at med-high quality with no shadows whatsoever. Id also like to add that the 'fog' effect...isnt that reserved for machines that cant handle anything...like...a playstation? or an atari 2600? blah

well..i just installed the Omega ATI drivers..they seem pretty decent..only been using em 24 hours though..so kinda hard to really make a good judgement on em yet...but so far..for bf2...nice improvement slight..but good

ps if i find anything wrong with them..ill be sure to post here for ya

ya know...over half these postings are directed directly at dice/ea....do you actually think someone from either of the organizations actually READS this stuff? my guess is 'no' but i could be wrong...it almost sounds like a CS game on this board now...hmm....whine whine whine..cheat cheat cheat...blah blah blah...

yeah..good question..what happened to Delta?

I would have to say that i did a FRESH install of winblows...then reinstalled all said drivers..and bf2 runs pretty nicely..even with the patch...i dont ALWAYS get the best pings..but its more than playable...30-40 fps...800x600@70hz mostly high detail...but yes...there are bugs bugs bugs...so...lesson from this is...pirate software from EA cause its ALWAYS gonna be buggy, learn it single player, then buy it a month/2 later when MAYBE the patch or serious upgrades to the initial CRAP release are out...then play online...sound reasonable?

umm..shouldnt they FINISH the INITIAL product FIRST??? BEFORE starting on another??? umm...unless they have ADD or something...

maybe its your turn to hump the dogs leg!!!

HA HA!!! TABLES ARE TURNED!!!

would you buy a brand new car with all 4 wheels missing?

aka bf2 BARELY working.

Liam Neeson SUCKS
hehe

blue...all your base are belong to me!

just because i get my copy today..doesnt mean i havent been playing it...:P as i have since day one of its release. if DC could do all of these vehicles and more...on HALF the machine i have...full detail...then why does dice's 'version' require 2G's of ram? are they THAT inept???
im getting my copy at a super discount and i am starting to wonder if its worth even what im paying..:P i guess ill give it a month..if im still playing it...i guess it is worth it..if not...my suspicions are correct
but 2G's is just dumb..the GAME itself is barely that big...might as well put it on a ramdrive while yer at it

why dont we change the name to 'Desert Combat : Retail', cause thats what it is...far as i can tell...still fun...but stupidly rediculous req's for a machine....i get my copy today...and well...i dunno if im looking forward to it....the first patch doesnt even address control issues? how nice...nothing like dropping the ball...hardcore

tis all yellow headings again today blue...whas das deal???

why is everything yellow now???? or am i going colorblind???


oh yeah....FIRST!!!
and...
LONG LIVE HOWARD STERN!!!

you know the funny thing here is...we still pay the companies money..we still buy their products..and they still feed us utter CRAP. would you buy a car that did all this on the first day you bought it? would you keep a car that the roof flew off 2 blocks from the dealership? would you keep a slurpee that smelt like rotten eggs and tasted even worse? no...of course not...but we allow the companies to basically sodomize us HOWEVER they want...and why? im really not sure....really. you pay $50 for a product and it BARELY works? i dont see the difference in situation...all this whining...no answers really...and thats about it.

ok...still trying to tweak SP..never mind MP....and i get 'LOW VIRTUAL MEMORY' warnings when i have a 4G page file*and i did this AFTER i started getting LVM msgs, it was 700ish previously* *yes, i have a .03% fragd drive etc etc* and another 4G's free JUST for bf2...ok...something is SERIOUSLY WRONG here...and its not just me...grr....i love when big companies release games..i wonder if they'll release a patch this year or not....hmm....

LONG LIVE HOWARD STERN!!!

Im still waiting for a flac/ogg *mp3s are TOTAL crap and a waste of bandwidth/time/effort, get in the 21st century already, long live foobar2000! **plug plug** * version of the DNF theme that accompanied the video that was released that year...another thought i was watching the video the other day...yeah i was bored...is it just me, or is there 'wind' in some of those scenes? and i DO NOT mean the rain scenes. I think 'wind' in games is LONG overdue...not many games have a 'physics engine' that can handle 'wind' or air movement, just thinking about it offhand...would the only ones that do, be flight sims?
imagine all those camping @*%#%& in other games if they had to calculate 'wind' into their shots? im sure youd see sniping/camping drop by at LEAST 90% as all of a sudden REAL skill is required, not just cheapness and this isnt just for 3DR either, im sure the Source engine could have done it....ive never been to the beach with no wind...not that i goto the beach a lot either, as we dont have one in the area, at least a beach on an ocean for several thousand miles but its always been windy.
