Just downloading the multiplayer demo, no point buying the game if i'm not entirely happy with the online play

560MB for a demo, it has to be good! Can't wait to give it a go, the videos look fucking awesome!

If i'm pleased with what i see, i'll get a legit copy and i'll be well up for a PF match Might have to rebuild my beast cos my spec won't cut it i don't think

AMD athlon 1.3ghz clocked, 1.4GB ram, 7500rpm HDD, geforce 2 creative live drive IR front mount sound

actually no, my system isn't THAT bad:

amd athlon-m 2500xp+ (running at default 1800mhz, with an aero7+ at full speed)
abit nfs-7 2.0 (latest bios)
1gb geil pc3200 ddr
geforce 6600GT (128mb agp) (latest drivers)
1x80gb, 1x120gb IDE ATA133 drives, 1x160gb SATA drive
Liteone 52x32x52 cd-rw, sony 16x dvd rom
antec sonata case with 380W true power supply.
windows xp sp2 with all updates installed. reformatted recently.

in theory it should run bf2 fine. doesn't quite run as well as i want it to. it looks shit. i'll soon be upgrading a few things (cpu, mobo, gfx card) so i can run it at 1280x1024 with full AA/AF. prefer to spend money on the car though... so it can wait

think my psu might be a bit underpowered aswell. i'll change that first and see if there's a difference

will, tried it with no AA?

some games seem to run like SHIT with aa turned on, i think its coz theyre not 100% dx9 compatible...

i find if a game runs really shit on my pc, i turn off AA and all of a sudden its lightspeed

anyway, who needs AA in high resolutions? its not like you can make the thing look less pixelated if the screen is already as hi-res at it goes and the blurry effects it does make the picture look more shit imho.

AF rocks tho

AF, antiscopic filtering, its like trilinear filtering, only it doesnt just filter the mipmaps it blends em together a bit like morphing, so you dont get the effect of walking up to walls and it going BLUR-BLUR-BLUR-CLEAR it just looks perfect from all distances (obviously using lower sized textures at a distance, but you cant tell becaue theyre so small)

AA makes the jaggedy edges look less jagedy by kinda bluering them... used to be used when games ran at low resulutions to make it look less commodore 64ish... nowadays its hard to notice the effect when playing in high res but people still turn it up to the max serttings becasue they think that whacking all the slider bars up to max makes the game better if ever i use it i tend to keep it at a max of about 4x maybe 8x (gfx card does 16x)

AF makes stuff far away look blurry and makes it look really detailed up close... the computer applies a shit quality texture when stuff's far away to make it use less memory and make the game run faster, and swaps it for a beter detailed one when you get up close so it looks good... AF makes this change look invisible (in old games you could spot it a mile away!) i personally always use 8x if the game supports it, but even 2x or 4x is better than trilinear! (gfx card does 16x but pointless)

yeah but will the game work now you have backtracked your drivers ?
games fooking awesome but has caused me a lot of ŁŁŁ & trouble the last 2 weeks

been told for a faster ping

the best way to get servers is through the game and to find UK servers where it says 'Server Name' just type UK and all the servers with UK will come up

was looking on scooby net last night they hav got a server running


Rogue BF2 Server - UK Based

195.20.109.109

Autoteam Balance
32 Players
200 Tickets
15 second spawn time
Map changes after every round


nice to shoot a few of them

my user names NOW goodcompany
