    the demo is great, and battlefield 1942, and battlefield vietnam were both lots of fun with huge replayablity...I will go ahead and say that this one will do the same, and the graphics are nice in the demo, so I am sure the final product will be amazing....I am picking mine up tomorrow after class...

    man, I've only got to play it late last night....


    but the game is badass......graphics are pretty good, but the huge maps and online play is awesome! you can get field upgrades if you are good and get different weapons, but right now, I just find the highest point in each map and just sit there and snipe fools....it's pretty accurate on weapon realistics, like even though you can see a guy who is about 1 mile out, you cant hit him....

    vehicles are fun.....the new skydiving feature is awesome, you can ride shotgun in a jet or a blackhawk and in the blackhawk you can fast rope out or just jump and open you chute......so you can land on rooftops and then quietly do what you want to do...

    Game is awesome. Last night the game played pretty good, this afternoon it seems like most of the 64 players servers are laggy beyond playable. Oh ya, and the rankings take quite awhile to update, my only gripes about the game. Aside from that I've lovin' it. I still suck at flying tho haha, guess I'll have to stick to the sniper rifle.

    you and me both, I cant fly anything to save my life, I always just get some altitude and then ditch and parachute my way to safety....

    you aint no sniper till you jump out, open your chute and then snipe off 3 guys on the way down......


    I love this game!

    I just upgraded my mobo/cpu/ram... got an amd 3800+ 64, gig of ddr ram, ati radeon 9800 pro. You would definatly need to upgrade your ram to atleast a gig to play this game like it's meant... anything less and i think it'd be choppy as hell. As for how to fix it... it's just plug and play.. open your case, make sure the ram is in all the way. do you have one 512 stick or 2 256 sticks?

    eh... well cs 1.6 is ughh... about 6 years old, or atleast the engine is.. thats why you can play it lag free on 512mb of ram = ) Check out the game requirements.... it's a very demanding game. I'm running on low graphics now simply because I want as little lag/choppiness as possible since I like being a sniper.

    with a gig of ram. pretty much lag free. with 512, i wouldn't guarantee it. The REQUIRED amount of ram is 512mb or more... thats not the recommended, thats the required to just run the game... so i wouldn't think so... you can get more ram pretty cheap tho.. depending on what kind you have.. i just bought a new 512 stick for $70.

    Ya don't buy CS Source, ya buy HL2, CS:source is a mod for it, just like the first CS was to HL1. But ya man, this is a totally different kind of game than CS. Much more wide spread, up to 64 people on a server, boats, jeeps everywhere, tanks, planes, choppers... Totally different than CS, and definatly worth the initial cost, and any needed upgrade costs lol.

    On a side note, I've just hit Private First class, and got 2 badges and 2 medals so far. Still waiting to unlock the next sniper rifle tho heh.

    Well, I am up to rank Lance Corporal now, and unlocked the sniper rifle.. Although I seem to suck with it lol, I think I've only gotten a total of 3 kills with it since I got it. Not as accurate as the starter rifle, but a bit more powerful, still not one hit kills to the chest, takes em down to about 20%.

    Have you noticed that the xp bar is going up very slowly now? I haven't won any badges, ribbons, or medals, and barely got any xp in my bar for the last 4-5 days. Dunno if maybe I'm just suckin' now or if they changed somethin.

    well yes......

    just make sure you have more than 512 worth of memory and a decent video card....

    Circuit City has a ATI Radeon 9220 for 90bucks....not a bad buy

    i can't get this game to play... i think there is a conflict with my sound card =\. too bad i can't afford to drop some money into my system right now. the little time i have to play before the game crashes is a lot of fun.

    i think some of the crashing is gonna be resolved in the new patch comin out for it. Also if you have anything in your computer overclocked try turnin it down alittle and that may help with the crashes too

    i really think the game doesn't like my sound card (its a little old, but its done what i needed it to do so far). i'm going to try upgrading that a little bit and getting a little more ram. when is the patch supposed to come out?

    There's a patch for it out already, check here
    I doubt very much that it's your soundcard causing the issues. It's most likely your video card. Battlefield 2 has a very short list of supported video cards...

    Since you live in Snellville, you can just come up to Siege LAN and play it here. Let me know you're from IA and I'll give you a free hour...

    i upgraded my card to a card on the list specifically mentioned. i know its supported =\. it may not be the sound card causing the issue, but i do know that there is a known issue with the soundblaster card (which i have). i also swapped it out with a generic card, which changed the problem somewhat, and that is where my suspicion comes from. i also have the version 1.02 patch already =\

    if i can find the spare time, i may take you up on that offer though. =)
