Go read the message HERE, slag off EA and maybe they'll do a decent patch next and fix the sound issues at the same time :)

I did wonder why on map changes BF1942 temporarily shows a picture of my desktop in 640x480 mode (the gfx mode i use to play) complete with an extra prog window that has no description in it. Thx Zarj :p.

I feel sorry for CaptSnooze1. You don't want DeathAce on your back about anything ;)

/me watches the Barrysworld guys tell the EA.com Message board guys how it is.

Ahhh, this explains a lot, always takes me ages on map change, with only 256ram in me system, prolly swapping from here to kingdom come. Usually first in by a long way in games like HL.

I find that occasionally I don't drop to desktop and start a new process. But thats the exception rather than the rule.

That EA board is well known for being full of spamming idiots and having no responses from EA at all.

At best you get a customer service guy saying "Try reinstalling the product".

Perhaps a better way would be for Barrysworld to put together a meaningful and concise email to info@dice.se

I wouldn't make the email too harsh as DICE might have been forced to program it that way for copy protection. I read in an interview with the lead programmer than they should be doing a LINUX dedicated server, so the least we can hope for is that is sorted.

On another note, the game does seem to have a WON id type system. A friend tried using a key gen to play online, sometimes he could get on. Took about 5 different keys, but as soon as the map changed he got kicked off the server for invalid cd key :). Needless to say he has orderd is own copy :). I'm glad it has got a cd key check so loads of people will buy the game to play online that might otherwise have just used a piracted copy. Hopefully the more succefull the sales are the more patches/maps/mods we get.

Also I find it strange I can play fine with 128k isdn but get terrible lag with 64k. Looks like I might have to get another line so I can use both phone lines all the time as I'm getting grief from the family :(

Hmm stray OT a bit there :)

Anyway keep up the good work BW and I hope they listen to you.
