SF = awsome!

Man this game just got 100% better night time maps are freaking great.

(nothing like sneaking up on some newb who don't use nightvision and knifing him in the back)

Apache = death from above.

Hooks/zip take a while getting used to but if you are in a premade sqaud and are working together the limits are endless.

Only bad thing is if you struggled running BF2 this game will blow your computer up.

Luckily i upgraded just before x850 pro 256mb and now 2 gigs of ram = sweeeeeeeeeeeeet :P

glad someone else has played it aside me.

i was runnign aorund on the 32 man servers against bots and empty 64 man maps.

yeah the dark is cool...but wtach out for the frigging mini genrators. Was charging along in my ATV and hit one....flip flip flip roll crunch....booom

They are perfectly black so even NVG doens't show them up ):

Also...did you ffind that NVG made the ground uniformly black in dark areas?

Assault + Spec ops + Support + Medic = you can get anywhere and fight from it

sounds like a wasp stuck in a bottle.

Aside that its pretty speedy and supriesingly doens't blow up that easy.

i took the new spec ops gun and emtpied a mag into it and it didn't start smoking, i'm guessing that players would die before that tho.


C4 seems too have gotten a boost and has a large "kill" area now aswell.

I'm not having much fun on the night maps, too much of a snipers' paradise for me, particularly the airfield one. The other problem is just the code, its a laggy POS half the time, particularly inside buildings. It reminds me (a lot) of the bigger (and laggier) DC maps, like Urban Siege, which is no surprise of course given where the Trauma guys ended up. I'm running a decent spec machine with a lot of RAM and an X800 Pro and its not great. Plus, what's going on with the load times? A couple of times when I played last night it actually looked like it had crashed to desktop before coming back up again, and it keeps 'optimising shaders'.

The new weapons are alright I suppose, but the Hind is stupid (why is it two seat only?), the BMP weak, and flashbangs just annoying. Ziplines are fun, but not worth the price of admission.

Oh, and the British accents are quite possibly the worst I've heard since Dick Van Dyke

The game runs great on my computer..

amd 64 3400

2 gig ram

400 gig hdd

x850 256mb.

As for the night maps.. yeah it can be annoying getting pwnd every 2 seconds but i think they are the most fun.

One thing that is fucked up is the balance between the sides.. US/SAS get nice weapons with scopes etc while the other side are still running round with AKs.

Makes me chuckle anyway Makes my getting wasted over and over again by another bunny hopping moron liveable. Some of the SAS maps are very good - particularly like the one with the palace and the deserted town where you fight the Russki's.

Hmm, warming to it. Still have big problems with the night maps (I maintain the code ain't up handling lots on screen and then switching nightvision on) but I like all of the other maps. But I stand by what I said about the BMP and the Hind. Oh, and what's up with the SAS assault rifle? (F2000?) It looks cool but its crap. The medic's G36 is far better.

i talked about this in IRC last gnith and thought about it on the way too work this morning.


The SF server is now in 32 man mode, hopefully this will spark it a bit more too get more players.

Secondly I have returned the Urban/Wake Server but in 32 man mode.

Each servers has 1 [one] empty slot due too the lower player cap.
