featured_spectre Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I am going to eat my hat. I re-ordered it as I played it at a friends house (I had the beta) and it was hugely improved from the beta. I shall be kicking backside by friday!
Butters Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I had a spectacular moment last night on BC2, on one of the snow maps in the rush mode. Couldn't see a thing as a gunner on the tank I was driving was shooting like crazy at the snow, obscuring my view. Didn't see a squad of players laying what seemed to be supressing fire at a building on the road ahead. *Squish* PipBoy has killed XXXXXXX PipBoy has killed XXXXXXX PipBoy has killed XXXXXXX PipBoy has killed XXXXXXX PipBoy has killed XXXXXXX As you can imagine the barrage I got was fun.

Hahahaha! That is priceless! My mate did the same to myself and another mate. We went ahead on a quad bike, he backed us up in a tank. We came under fire so bailed off the quad bike. My mate was too busy blasting at the tank ahead that he just ploughed over us!
gshaw Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 That's because you didn't get your arse online Sunday, instead watched FA Cup football Footie first, gaming after BF2 is the first game that's actually wrote "epic fail" on the screen after I crashed one of the 4x4s
CAM Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I am running this on low graphics settings and it's performing OK but looks good for a machine that should barely be able to run it in Single-Player. The sounds sometimes loops in filmclips but that's a hilarious bug if anything as the NPCs sound like they are rapping.
CAM Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Tried this online and ...get it! You can join me while ZeroHour keeps nicking my dogtags. A shame they didn't add support for the Steam friends list to jump straight in though. You have to go through EA's already pretty dodgy servers.
SteveB Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Its a very good game, really got into it. You may need to tweak some settings in the settings.ini if you are experiencing choppy games. Here are my suggestions to smooth gameplay without detracting from the graphics too much Go to (for example) C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\BFBC2\settings.ini and open with wordpad MAIN TWEAK > RenderAheadLimit=* (its set to 2 standard but if you are stuttering set it to 1 or 0) FOV= (55-200 (75 is good for 16:10)) HSAO Off Bloom Off
featured_spectre Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) for some reason when I updated my nvidia drivers i kept getting BSODs on this game, so as such I had to roll back and still having issues running above low graphics, however even on low its pretty good.

Rawns Posted March 15, 2010 Author Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) What Spec are you guys running this on?

ZeroHour Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I am ZeroHour in game Add your tags all and in general add people who were before you in the last (aka last to add their name adds everyone)
ZeroHour Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Also, performance seems to improve if you change "DirectX=Auto" to "DirectX=9" (It does not support DX10) I thought it was DX10?!? but its only certain effects which would explain the perfomance differences. I will be honest I run @ 1920x1200 everything pretty maxed out without issues on my GX280
featured_spectre Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I have added everyone who has posted up their game name...
Arcath Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I got it for the 360 and its brilliant it seems to level allot slower than MW2, but that just means you get guns slower. my 360 name is "ArcathWhitefall"
Rawns Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 I thought it was DX10?!? but its only certain effects which would explain the perfomance differences. I will be honest I run @ 1920x1200 everything pretty maxed out without issues on my GX280 My mate sent me a link (can't find it ATM) which suggested it did not use DX10. Maybe it does use it then. I can't be sure anymore!
Butters Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Pretty sure it does use DX10, had to switch to DX10 on XFire to get it to show messages in-game. By the way, I love the GOL sniper rifle
Rawns Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 I've recently got the F2000 unlocked. Nice fire rate. Shame it's slightly less powerful then the AK. And you can only carry 2 nades' from the launcher.
ZeroHour Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Pretty sure it does use DX10, had to switch to DX10 on XFire to get it to show messages in-game. By the way, I love the GOL sniper rifle How do you get xfire to work in dx10 games?
