Just wondering how many people play BF2?
I can't play because my computer isn't powerful enough. :'(
-
What are your specs?
-
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 2666MHz
Graphics Card: Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Family
Memory: 512MB
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP
Free Disk Space: 116.9GB
Graphics Card Memory: 128MB
Display Driver Version: 6.14.10.3889
DirectX Version: 9.0c
Optical Drive: CD/DVD
Sound Card: Realtek HD Audio rear output

I don't recognise the graphics card so I assume it's an onboard. All you need is a graphics card to run. I believe a 5700 should run it sufficently and be available quite cheaply now.
-
I don't recognise the graphics card so I assume it's an onboard.
I asume so too. And I if you want to play that badly they're not that expensive. You just gotta know where to go.!!!!
-
My computer only has 1 PCI slot and there aren't many good video cards that use PCI.
-
i play it on its highest quality settings...its great!! the graphics are pretty awesome.
-
5700 uses an AGP slot...
-
I think a pentium 4 machine should be new enough to at least have an AGP slot. You sure all you have is one extra PCI?
-
Yes. Can you add an AGP port onto the motherboard?
-
I buy new parts for the Battlefield series alone. I bought new parts for 1942, I bought new parts for 2 and I bought new parts for BF2142 which I pre-ordered.
If you have a decent ping on any of the Gamert, kifferstuebchen or Uk Ranked Road to jalalabad Resurrection servers (Just type Gamert, Kiffer or UK Ranked in the search filter ) and would like to play with me and a mate of mine whilst using Teamspeak2, add me to MSN : [email protected]
-
Apparantly BF2142 will be very similar to BF2 in terms of computer usage, because it is using the same engine.

So you've got rich parents, who cares? You'll probably grow up spoiled thinking l33t talk is funny.
This topic wasn't about showing off your specifications, but about getting information from people who played Battlefield 2.

BTW, I like this spec: [Optical Drive: CD/DVD+- ] totally pwnage rig, dude. and I didnt know 4gigs were like 4048 Mb?
oh, and yeah, I play BF2 and I upgraded for 2142 ;-)
-
i have a geforce 7600 gt oc. it can run bf2 on its highest possible graphics. it was about $300 CAD. (so about $250 USD).
i LOOOVVVEEE spec ops, the specops in the movie i posted is totally like me... utterly psychotic and wants to blow up anything he sees. [smiley=evil.gif] [smiley=evil.gif] [smiley=evil.gif]

lol

;D

If im honest mate, i dont think your missing much. The faimly P.C nor my laptop can run BF2 but i played it at my cousions for about 20 mins and got bored. It really isnt that good, the best is BF1942, which is by faaaaarrrr the best. But thats jsut me ;)

BF1942 was good, but BF2 is better. Graphic and teamplay wise. At least I now get points for being a medic. Too bad they didn't keep the sniper rifle, though. At least that required skill, unlike the lame M95 and SVD.
What's the point in having a sniper rifle when you can't even get a one shot kill when you hit the head of your target?
-

You can't?
-
The longer you keep the sight on a target, the more accurate it becomes. And you need to take into account bullet drop at distance. But I've noticed weapons on Call of Duty 2 (ww2) seem more accurate than those on BF2, in modern times!
-

Not with the SVD you don't.
The bolt action rifles will, but those are lame. In BF1942 you had one that really took some skill to kill. Now any 14 year old can use a sniper rifle and claymore *censored* himself out of any situation.

BF2 is a different kind of game, though. Much more open space space, but the guns really aren't all that deadly. It takes about 15 shots with an Mp5 to get someone killed. (Taking into account 3-5 missed bullets) the P90 is worthless too. The other guns aren't all that bad, but sometimes it's ridiculous how impervious some soldiers seem to be to bullets.
And no, I'm not a newbie. Come face me anytime. ;D
-
I play mostly AT, and i kill Plenty of Peoples with The SMG, i don't find it all the inaccurate if you use the sights and fire in short bursts,... but if you running at some some spaming.... thats silly.
I suck pretty bad in the Jets, but I'm a half decent chopper pilot, did you play Desert Combat Mod For 1942, now flying the Choppers in that was Fun, and a challenge.
I wish BF2 had a Buddy list. do any of the gameres up in here use X-Fire?
-

Other soldiers, in my experiance...
My xfire imperialczar

My Xfire is Panboy2k

wisjes arevery much all i have.. i be what they call a poorboy lol.. but i do play when i go to a gaming place like pcxgen.
I'm either a sniper or a comacazzy warrior
-
A what? :D
-
i be a poor boy ( cant afford a new rig or updrades to my old school rig, i just need a new processor.)
refer to here for specs on my machine

What FPS do you get and at what resolution/settings do you play?
And you should really quit sniping and C4-whoring, it's lame. :P
-
all i know is sniping... and comacazzing.. umm dunno the fps
-
type renderer.drawfps 1 in the console to check the FPS (Upper left corner)

raptor i will have to disagree with your "any 14 year old can use a sniper rifle" statement. at far distances one has to take into consideration bullet drop and also bullet time. the target has to be lead in order to make a successful hit.
also, i believe the SVD has kind of a "handicap" because of its quick fire rate. if it were as strong as the m95, the team that has the SVD for the basic sniper weapon, would have a great advantage would they not? in order to balance the weapons out, they made the bullet strength less.
and the p90 is not worthless, i have seen MANY people get owned by one, including me. :(
-

Not when you're facing a shitpile of sniper-whores that are all aiming for you, since the M95 takes up about 90% health.
Some maps are just more pro-sniper than others and the 14 year old kiddies know that. They're after me, they all are.. Staring at me with their beedy little eyes..
Especially the no vehicle maps are a pain in the *censored*, but they're great fun none the less.

The SVD is worthless, all it does is annoy medics and reveal the snipers their location.
Snipers are easy knife kills.
and the p90 is not worthless, i have seen MANY people get owned by one, including me. Sad
I rarely get shot by an Mp5 or P90 and I always play Medic, I barely drive any vehicles.
The AK-series and M16 are the deadliest firearms out there, if any Anti-Tank can win from me he was either sporting a DAO-12 or he caught me with low health.
But really, if you people all play Battlefield 2 we should really find a server to play on.
Add me to MSN: [email protected].
I'm from Europe, though, so I do not play on American servers..
-
i mostly play on ORST university server. its lag free and the players have a good mix of experience. (i hate servers where the server members are all on the same team and just rock you the second you spawn. >:()
BTW why dont you spawn as a sniper and give those sniper whores a nice hot lead injection to the face? snipers rarely move so you have alot of time to line up a head shot on them.
sadly if a sniper is camping a base, other players most oftenly rely on their teammates to kill the sniper. almost nobody takes the initiative. believe me, ive camped an enemy base for the whole game once and died maybe twice.

Because I didn't unlock any of the sniper rifles. I have all the guns apart from the sniper rifles.

Yes, most people are idiots and can't play in teams. I call them the "Counterstrike-generation players". :P
-
y?? i never played counter-strike so i dont know what your talking about
-
I try to find a squad that sticks together, there the most effective ones. and i just unlocked the P90 , it is so much better than the standard SMG, i have already killed many peoples with it. and its the only gun in the game that i don't recommend short bursts.
Its lacking on stopping power but it makes up for it with ROF and accuracy.

pump them full of lead panboy

i think they should put this gun in the game lol
-
In Call of Duty 2 team deathmatch you respawn next to someone in your team, and I've noticed people play together in a team much more than they do in Battlefield 2, which is sad considering BF2 is all supposed to be about teamplay. The respawning near your squad leader idea is good, but especially now they've stopped you from rotating leaders, squads are much less useful. You should be able to spawn next to any player in your squad. Less realistic? Who cares, it'll be more fun. (And besides respawning next to your leader isn't exactly realistic either.)
-
respawning in general isn't realistic lol.
EDIT: wow that was a long time before i realized my awsome spelling
-
Call of Duty 2 has much smaller maps than Battlefield 2 so you're forced to stick together and you'll find yourself doing so even if you don't mean to.
Battlefield 2 has a bit too much freedom, but if you're with a good squad and you keep pushing forward you'll have a lot of fun and probably end up winning each round. Unless you play Wake Island, which is just lame.
-
the best thing a squad can do is have the squad leader hide somewhere near a flag and have a medic bodyguard. the squad members can spawn off the leader, and if the leader is found, the bodyguard medic can resusitate him (or respawn on him if the enemy sees the medic first).
another good thing that a squad leader can do, is to enter into a passenger heli and fly up to around 450-500 ft. then hover from flag to flag. as squad members spawn in the chopper, they just simply jump out and parachute. :)
-
thats kinda kool
-
Yeah i play it now had to buy a graphics card for it thought.
Its pretty good, i want to get some of the add ons.

If ur PC can render Battlefield 2, then try Battlefield 2142. Its just an elaborate mod so it has the same minimum specs.

I noticed the same
Unfortunately, it doesn't support 1280x1024? What's that all about? The highest I can choose is 1280x960...
-
It wont support any wide Screen Resolutions.
Is that one?
The Reason behind that is because it would give you a larger FOV , and an advantage.
I just got a wide Screen Monitor, and it took me a while to rind the Right Res...
But Bf 2142 , looks stretched, and my monitor doesn't have a feature to set it to 4:3, its kinda annoying.

I thought 1280x1024 was a standard resolution, I have a Samsung 930BF monitor and that is the native resolution.
1280x960 seems like a widescreen resolution to me? :-?
It doesn't really look bad, but I find it to be a bit more stretched out than 1280x1024..
-
I found this list on a Warcraft Wiki(??) it seems to be a list of wide Screeen Res's and it apperars that the one you wont is not a Wide Screen res
1260 * 980 the the highest it will go on mine, only 45 Mins till the Full game , are you going to be on line?
Here are the common resolutions for 16:10 aspect ratio:
2560x1600
1920x1200
1680x1050
1440x900
1280x800
1024x640
800x500

ok i baught that game but lets see.
i dont have enough ram
not good enough graphics card(but i got a good one off of neweeg.com comes in 2 day)
to slow of a processor(will upgrade when i have money)
if you want to know if your computer is up to it get it scanned here

should have done that before

What are your specifications?
-
i have a
ASUS A7N8X Deluxe Socket A (Socket 462) NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400 ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 2800+ Barton 2.083GHz Socket A Processor Model AXDA2800BOX (which cost more than my motherboard did.lol)
geforce fx 5200 graphics card
768 mb RAM.
I didn't even think about it when i bought the games. the main thing i need was a new hard drive cause i ran out of space on my 40gb hard drive
I would of completely forgot what i had if it wasn't for the saved invoices at newegg.com
-
A better videocard, along the lines of a 7300GS or GT would probably make a lot of difference. But then again, if you want to play modern games such as BF2 and BF2142, you're going to have to look for a new system sooner or later.
-
yeah i just got an ati radeon x850 pro
and when i played cod it didnt freeze like it usally does, avent tried bf2 yet but hopefully it will work
