ok that didnt make any sense. killing you he lost 6 points. also there is a bug when sometimes teammates appear as enemies. Its a rare bug, happened me only 3 times in all BF2 playing time. I lost like 50 points because of it, was banned from server, and called a noob by someone who didnt believe its a bug. fun? NO.

Yeah I experienced that bug with the demo as had lots of cussing and accusations thrown at me when I tried to explain...
Quick questions for Glottis - does upgrading rank open up more weapons and unlock amour etc.
If so - is the for every class or just the class you played when awarded?

You get to unlock 1st weapon when you become Lance Corporal, you can choose to unlock 1 weapon of any class. Then each new rank up you get to unlock 1 more weapon (not 100% sure if it works this way thou).

Very cool stuff. These tools should be IN GAME though. Atleast some of them. I would kill for the ability to draw on the map. They better add a grid to the ingame map as well.
Anyway cool program. Fun to mess around with. Not much use if you aren't in a clan.

This is a great summary of the problems found in BF2, taken from BF2world.
| Quote: |
- Ranked server 'lag'. Ranked servers are choppy either due to lag or the ranking system update.
- Updating stats. Player stats are not updating properly or within a timely manner to the master server.
- Hit Detection. The hit/collision detection for percentage of players is reported incorrectly. A visible hit on an enemy character sometimes does not register as a hit.
- CTD. Randomly, some players crash to desktop while loading into a new map on a server. Sometimes, players will just get booted from the server.
- Punkbuster. Various pb kicks for inexplicable reasons. Fresh install non-modded game with non-cheater player, the player will be kicked from server for various pb reasons (map.zip, coredll.dll, tools mismatch, fonts, etc.).
- Team notification. Often, teammates have to be very close to you in order to see their name. Many TK's can be attributed to this issue, especially when in a gun turret firing at an incoming vehicle or aircraft.
- Commander's spotting. When scanning the battlefield, all enemies will show as red dots. If you choose the "spotted" function on a dot before it appears, you will get an audio cue of what you spotted (ie. "enemy helicopter spotted") but it will not show on your minimap. Is this the case for all of your team, or is the commander the only one who doesn't see the enemy on the minimap? If this is the case, the commander needs to hold of spotting until the scanner dots have disappeared.
- Server listing. Often, the server list will display incorrect information. Sometiems servers will display 0 or 999 ping, when they actually ping decently. Having a display showing when the server list is completed updating would be beneficial for solving this issue.
- Filer server listing 2. Filters having "ranked servers" and "not full" checked will still return full servers (as in they'll show as 32/32 on the server list)
- Choppy Server listing. Often, the server list will freeze as user is scrolling thru the listings. Having a display showing when the server list is completed updating would be beneficial for solving this issue. Or perhaps disabling the menu effects on the server list screen would be best.
- Controls. Not all controls are listed in the manual or in the menu system. For instance, being able to customize the Alt key without editing a file would be great. I personally hate it when I accidentally hit the Alt key (other games I have that resevered for voice chat).
- Account management. For a player that doesn't have a clan or registered an account without clan tags, then the user is forced to create a new account with the clan tags. And lose all the stats associate with the tagless account, thus starting over. HAving the ability to rename the account and/or have a clan tag section as part of the name would be great and less frustrating for the users.
- SB Extigy (Audigy equivalent) Bug that causes in-game voices (not VoIP, but ones like "enemy helicopter spotted" etc.) to go all choppy when everything else sounds fine.
- Vehicle kills. It is too easy to kill teammates with a vehicle, i have Killed(been killed) with a slight clip of a humvee, APC etc.
- Voting. Voting is a waste, it requires far too many votes to make a decision, most people ignore so often times you sit on the same map for way too long.
- Install errors. Various people are receiveing errors during installation of the game.
- Game freezes. Some people are getting game freezes during gameplay, in between rounds, and when changing maps.
- Stuttering. Gameplay stuttering in the first 1-5 mins. Apparent in most computers in all maps/games on High settings. This is due to the computer still attempting to load the textures for each part of the map. As user visit each part of the map, user's computer is trying to load the textures to display it. (People who have 6800s series, X800s series have these as well. The stutter is there no matter what card. It may have to do with texture memory)
- Memory management. BF2 is using 800mb of my memory.
- Auto-Balance options Make it to where un-squadded people are first get to the other team in the for team balance. It's illogical to move commanders and squadded peeps.
- Request - Teammate rider names. Show user the names of people who are in the same vehicle.
- Sniping. There is confusion as to the physics involved with sniping. User has experienced both bullet drop and no-bulletdrop when sniping longe range. Players need confirmation of trajectory drop and it would be beneficial to include a range find device to incorporate into the scope to help compensate for long distance. Plus a adjustable scope would be beneficial as well.
- Scoring, Flag defense. Currently, player awarded one extra bonus point for killing an enemy if player is in the flag zone. If player's right outside the zone, player get nothing. This means defending is not only more boring than attacking - you also get less points. This is what creates the stupid flag chase gameplay where teams go round and round the map, taking flags and abandoning right away instead of staying and defending. To prevent this, we need a better scoring system. A much better way to reward defenders would be adding the bonus point for all kills made near the flag zone. With this system, it suddenly pays to stay and defend and we get much better gameplay in turn.
- Scoring, Medic. Start of the map 4 or 5 players spawn in, medic drops a nade and wounds all players. Medic then throws med packs all around and recieves healing points. Team gets to the 1st white flag, same medic drops a nade in close location, wounds the team, then does the same thing. This series of events will help the medic increase stats and rise in rank.
- Scoring/Punishment, TK - Suggestion. Abolish the current "Punish/Forgive" system. Almost everyone punishes right after they are killed, as if to get some illusory and momentary "revenge." It is impulsive and requires a disciplined restraint that you can't expect the average PC gamer to have. It's just reality. Make all TKs give -2 to the player's score. THAT'S IT. Every time a player TKs, it will take less and less votes to kick him.
- Scoring, Ranked Spec Forces. User having a hard time getting positive numbers for class points (whatever they're called). Even after blowing up 2AA guns user doesn't see any significant drop.
- Scoring, Sec Ops. Spec Ops destroys enemy hardware and currently does not recieve points. Examples: Spec Ops blows up artillery and get no points for it? Also blow up radar and are there points for that?
- Functionality, server details. User is not able to get server details (IP, name, etc.) when in-game. User must wait until a new map loads to view the map information along with the server data.
- Functionality, vehicle movement. Any vehicle except buggy is unable to move on 20% slope from full stop. Some maps have ROADS with more than 20% slope. If you stop at this kind of slope, you are no longer able to drive up the slope. Most modern army vehicles are able to drive up to 60% slope.
|
And also ofcourse the issue of teammembers showing up in the wrong colour, making you TK:ing them.
 ... but even worse, it releases satan.

Well gamespot sucks so.. ;D
It aint wierd at all, the game uses 800mb of ram, and with windows and other apps there aint much room for swapping textures and loading other shit.
Take my word for it, 2 gigs of ram = no choppyness.
I dunno it may be because gamespot had 4 dimm slots and added 2 512mb rams, forcing them to swap shit between eachother, i got 2x 1gb dudes, so it may be that it runs so good because the entire game can reside in 1 single dimm slot, i dunno..
I ran the ram (lol ran the ram  ) at 320mhz last night, no difference in preformance, still smooth as always. So it aint the mhz that made it smooth, it is the 2gb of ram.

You missed a logical test. Play only with 1 stick if you think that it might be because the whole thing resides only on one stick.

The only reason haviung 2 gb of ram helps you, is beacause Norton is hogging the other gig.

I installed anti virus for the first time last night and I haven't formatted my computer in over a year. It found some spyware, thats all.
But yea, I have 1.5gb and I still have some trouble with it's performence. As far as I can tell, the menu takes up way too much memory, and it doesn't unload properly when playing the game or something because the memory usage doesn't dip before loading the game coming from the menu.

well if you have a crap case with not many fans then there is problems to wait if overclocking. Otherwise this game is just like any other if you have updated drivers for everything and decent cooling you should be fine.

Not really dude. It's not all about cooling and drivers. you could have a stock pc, and your memory timmings could be wrong and cause this game to CTD in no time, high/low voltage to cpu, GFX card and ETC

if someone is still suffering from CTD, turning dynamic shadows&lighting off helped me quite a bit. usually i could play one map and it would crash on next, now i got 4 full maps (and then CTD, hehe) but better than nothing.
using forceware 77.50 (77.70 official has geforce 6800 bug in overlays, so can't use that, my lcd needs those) 1280x1024 dynamic stuff off, textures@med, everything else high. voip off and punkbuster updated manually.

.
since it took 3+ weeks to fix servers appearing as 0 ping for them (upcomming patch next week).
