I love playing battlefield 2 while toked up. Get an almost 3-d effect and its almost like a true immersion experience. Anyone else do this? It must be a popular idea cuz back in the day of Desert Combat used to run into lots of people online doing this. Have not played for several months now since I no longer have any windows computers (100% Linux now). But think I'm going to have to get a windows machine going again cuz I miss BF2.
Dboy
yeah once you get windows get CS source and you ll be set
Fucking rights man, we gotta have a cannabis.com gaming sesh one time.
my name on there is slipknotpsycho...
lately tho i been playing the desert conflict mod.... it's prettty good actually...
no more commanders, artilery consists of SCUD trucks, Howitzer 119 (i think is the number) tanks and trucks that cary missles similar to scud missles (the scuds are huge... like 3-4 players tall and can destroy everything in a small base with one) but there's alot of 'em... Opposition (mec) team has like 38 shots and one reload (can be fired one after another) and Coalition (us) has i think 12 rockets and 5 reloads...
the planes are diffrent too.. the migs and f18's are no longer bombers, they have special bomber planes (such as the A10) and american side has a AC-130 with mounted artilery style guns, chain guns, and cannons similar to a 30mm (apc)
all new maps (only a handful atm but they're supposed to be making more)
anyone who has BF2 should really check out the desert conflict mod.... it's free as well...

that's an AC-130...
I love battlefield 2. I like it more than counter strike. Its easier to pick up and play and its fun just having an all out war...especially when your high
what's your name on it? and do you have the desert conflict mod?Quote:

CS source imo is better becuase its not an RPG and u can pick it up and be on the same level as others, not skill but roles. i always manage to ripp these games up stoned more then sober.
kinda late... go ahead and get it back then... cuz since the DCON (desert conflict) mod has been introduced (it's completely free too, you just need to have BF2.. it's not the whole game, just a mod) there is no real areason to rank up... there are no unlocked weapons, no commander (only other real reason for rank, to beat anyone else that applies for commander) rank no longer matters at all...Quote:

i tried fear.. not my thing... i like the wide openness of BF2... if i want close quarter non-stop butt-hole puckering action... i got killzone.... and soon i'll have a replacement for that...
but overall, my fav fps's are the wide open ones...
sides, i love climbing in a jet... it's actually funny cuz i know aot of people (as i do read the forums of games i play for tips and tricks) use joysticks to fly them... and still, it's rare to find someone that can keep up with my manuvers... or escape me... (i use a keyboard only) of course you're probably wondering why that matters... well i'll put it to you as the flying guide put it to everyone else... with a joystick, you have complete control over speed pitch angle etc (can apply reverse thrusters at 50% or forward pitch at 30%, or even forward thrust at 10%)... with a keyboard, it's either 100% 0% or -100%
the only real way you escape is 1, i run outta missles right before a dogfight, and i'm trying to get you with the guns, and somehow i end up crashing (dosn't happen often, but it does, i ain't gonna lie) or you end up wiht some back up on my tail... especially if you're already damaged... following you only becomes that much easier... the slight chance you're just outta my view, is instantly remedied by your smoke trail.
if its really worth 40 bucks, ill buy it tomorrow.
last i heard... it's 20?
this is battlefield 2, not battlefield 2142... big big BIG diffrence... haven't played 2142 yet, but it's supposed to be all futuristic... battlefield 2, is largely based on now (even the teams are based on now, the weapons and vheicles people use etc...)
if you do get it, make sure to get the DCON mod for it if you wanna play me... o.0 i doubt i'll ever go back to plain BF2...
IMPORTANT! you need a good pc to run it... this game demands alot in way of RAM, CPU, and graphics.
Battlefield 2: CD Edition PC - Wal-Mart
all you need right there... no need for all that complete edition or expanded edition or w/e the fuck...
oh and i've played (if not mastered) most of the widely popular FPS's around as of today.... this is one of the best yet (imo)... it really does make shit like socom seem like childs play.
ok cool. lotta ppl here into BF2! Favorite maps? My favorite is Sharqi Peninsula.
Dboy
i think cs source is quirked out..granted graphics are better than the ...1.6(?)
but 1.6's bullet registry and grenades, aside from the flashes because those are brutal in source, are better....
ive noticed grenades are mad weak in source and they bounce odd and sometimes it seems like youre aiming at the head and youll be missing but you aim over the shoulder and you hit them in the head...inconsistencies like that..im not bad at either but prefer 1.6
as for this battlefield2 game...it looks sick and im going to pick it up asap
ive played 2142 and didnt like it it reminded me of tribes 2 too much traveling around huge maps and not enough action...there were some sick gunmod mods for tribes 2 and im sure there might be a mod of 2142 thats more intense but i just found it boring...neat concepts though
well bf2 has some wide open maps too... but you can also get up to 64 people in a single server... so there's plenty of action... it suits everyone, youc an be the lone wolf sniper scouting around taking people out, or you can pick spawn points that both teams are currently fighting for (you'll see masses of people fighting over one point all the time... it can get pretty intense)
as for my fav maps... on regular bf2, sharqi, dragon valley, karkrand's ok... kubra dam is probably my fav tho...
on DCON, lost village or outskirts of mosul...
Desert Conflict | the Sand Storm Is Coming Again...
btw, my xfire name is slipknotpsycho1985
Had not heard of DCon. Loved Desert Combat(BF1942 mod). This mod for BF2 looks great. How popular is it?
Dboy
pretty damn popular... i mean it can't hold a candle to the base of regular bf2 (regular bf2 has like over 1500 servers O.O) but it gets alot of play.... there's almost always atleast one server near full (oh 54 players plus) and plenty with 30+.. at peak time, there's alot more almost full ones tho... right now there's about 300 (including empty ones) servers dedicated to DCON...
the only bad time for it is in the mornings (like 6 am or so, but even then there's matches going on with atleast 30 players o.0) personally i like DCON better...
for some reason I thought I saw someone say it was 40..if its only like 18 bucks then ill buy it just because haha.
I also built this computer pretty specifically to handle pc games. lots of extra memory sticks and graphics cards and stuff. i play a lot of online multiplayer stuff like swg and stuff. no wow or anything though haha.
edit: im getting it thursday instead.
sweet lemme know when you got it (btw you got xfire? i just actually found out what it is.. an IMing program for gamers, can even open it up and talk to people, while you're in a fullscreen game, without having to minimize or close the game....)Quote:

i actually got a year of xbox live instead. i shoulda just bought this game but call of duty 3 on 360 is way fun.
maybe this upcoming thursday ill get it.
lol.... how about this, if you get it, add me on xfire... o.0 slipknotpsycho1985
haha alright
I just bought Battlefield 2 today and it fucking kicks ass. I can't figure out why the game isn't keeping track of my multiplayer stats tho. Any suggestions?
btw, my username is KorporalKush, if you wanna hit me up..
gotta be in a ranked server, if you ARE in ranked servers, give it time.. it doesn't auto update... i think it updates it's database like every 30 mins-hr...Quote:

bf2 rules, not played ant mods yet, will wait till the game gets tiresome.
you can pick the game up cheap, got mine about 2 weeks ago from amazon for £13, luckily the key still works. id never hered of it till my friend calld and pretty much insisted i get it...i dont often buy games (usually download em on bit-torrent) but this one is worth it for the online action.
superb game. i cant play stoned though, i just get my ass kicked lol, up to about half a joint i see improvement, but any more and its all downhill lol
my username is mattx86 if anyone plays regular. i havent got the hang of the squad thing yet, always been playing alone which is starting to be my downfall.
cant belive i almost let this game pass me by, its really good. normally play spec ops or anti tank, sniper occasionally.
yeah, you definately need to squad up... if i'm alone, doing good i can expect to maybe finish the game off with 40-50 points... in a squad, i can easily get 70+ even have got over 100... squads aren't that hard anyways, just play your role... if you're support, pass out ammo, offer supressing fire to bottle neck places while your squad gets ready to move in (say there's a whole in the wall, just start shooting off rounds into that hole so no enemy gets the idea of coming out, they position themselves on the wall at either side of the hole, you stop firing, they file in guns blazing) if you're a medic, revive revive revive... and if you're the only medic, keeping your team alive is priority 1... if you'r ein the thick of enemy territory, i wouldn't even try to find the shooter before reviving.... get him up, and run for cover.... repeat til you're all dead, or the enemy is all gone. sniper, you're a spotter... as you move with your squad try to take high ground so you can spot for enemies... in gun fights, take some relative cover but not far and start picking off enemies... mostly everyone's going to be worrying about your other squad mates with the automatic weapons... leaving you wide open for some close sniping action...Quote:

mostly tho, you just watch your squad members back.. there really is nothign special to know about being in squads... just follow your leader, keep your eyes peeled and work as a team (i.e. you and another member go through a door way, turn the way he doesn't so you can cover both sides, if no one's there turn around and keep following your squad.)
it also helps if you pick one weapon set... after awhile into the match, the sqaud begins to become accustomed to whatever class you are.... you were support but now you changed to spec ops and everyoen's screaming for ammo but you don't have any to give... it can get confusing, but it's worse when there's a couple of medics and they both decide to change class at the same time... the medic is actually the strong point of any squad... the best squad i've been in so far was 5 medics and 1 support...
Yeah, turns out i wasn't playing in ranked servers. I just played an hour long game half an hour ago, and stopped to eat lunch. But now I'm ready for some more.Quote:

pretty sure you still get 'em...
but if the team you were on won, i doubt you'd get the double bonus :p
and damnit, it takes forever to rank up >.< all i care about is getting my 3rd gen sniper rifle... that bitch is baaaaaaaad.... you can still pick people off that are far out of range on the M95 (2nd gen)
bf2.scyther-bladez.com - Battlefield 2 Awards Guide
that site will tell you points needed for the ranks (and any prerequisates it might have) along with how to obtain all medals, badges and ribbons...
can also check your own stats on the site ("BF2 stats" then on the left side put in your name) it's useful because for things like the combat badges where you have to play a certain number of hours, it tells you how many hours you've put into that particular thing, and how much to go...
im definately buying this tomorrow..sounds fun.
ive been playing call of duty 3 on xbox live and i cant get off it. the whole squad deal in bf2 sounds like just what i do in cod. i just yell at people to be a medic or support, and usually cruise around hunting germans unless its capture the flag or headquarters. then its just too crazy and hectic.
You won't regret it, my man. I've been playing it nonstop lately, and I'm starting to get good as a sniper, gotta love that Dragunov!Quote:

you'd have to come to 'my server'...
not actually mine but it's where i spend most my time.... IO city maps (IO= infantry only, no vheicles... the quickest way to rank up)
oh yeah, the L69A1 is the best sniper rifle :p that's the 3rd gen one... the only 3rd gen weapon i'm shooting for...
2nd gen spec ops is ok, better then the china's or mec's smg...
2nd gen assault rifle sucks... it's powerful and accurate, but only holds 20 rounds... better then the M16... but china's and mec's 1st gen assault rifles are better overall... haven't used 3rd gen much, but from what i have, it sucks
2nd gen suppport MG is the best out of them all.. the us and mec's support mg are pretty much even... mec's has a smaller clip, slower rate of fire, but a little more accurate then the us's saw249... it has a much larger clip and a much higher rate of fire, but it's less accurate
don't mess with engineer much...
the 2nd gen medic rifle, i don't particularly like.... again, mec's and china's standard assault rifles are better, but the us's medic rifle is single shot or 3 round burst only, and the 2nd gen is fully automatic... so i'd choose the 2nd gen medic rifle over the us standard m16..
2nd gen anti-tank shotgun isn't really much... takes forever to reload... but compared to the basic rifle, i'd choose teh shotgun
Send me the IP for that amazing sounding server, Slipknotpsycho!Quote:

it has 2 reserved spots (that's the number in parantheses next to the number showing how many players are in the server...) i.e. you can only join when it has 61 or less players... doesn't take long... just stick it in your favs, and keep clicking between that server and some random server in your favs to find out when it has 61 or less...
it may take a minute (as in 60 seconds) to get in, but to me it's worth it...
if you notice in regular servers... more than 60% of the time you're killed by vheicles... just cuz you aren't equpied to take them down...
just imagine that all that really stands between you winning a gun fight is skill, aim, and clip load... among a few other smaller factors (such as if it's a squad you're firing on, but you can get very easily lucky and take them all out.. aim for medics first, then go for anyone with an automatic... keep moving so snipers can't get a clear bead on your head...)
