starting to have big problems with lag, likely due to the firewall on our school network. Our school is so anal about viruses and stuff that they block everything. Cant play x-box live or use any file sharing programsevery time i log onto a server my ping shoots over 400 and i get kicked. Total crap. hopefully this is just temporary, but im not optimistic

:ptts: I am gonna be on tonight. :excited:

My wife and kids are going to Disneyland in 3 weeks with her sister, and I will have a whole week to get my total :nerd: on and level up. We need to plan a 4 hour FBG bash where we can run wild as a squad on a server.

assuming i can actually connect, i would love to do that. anyone an experienced squad leader?
I have done it now and then and I will volunteer to be squad medic.
 
spec ops here, if i can ever connect again
:own3d: I played a few times this PM as commander. Won 1, lost 1. We came dang close to winning that one loss. It is frustrating to have 5 players on your team with 0 or negative points, though. :wall:

WOW now I remember why I took a break from this. Jumped back in for about a half hour, and JC, in 2 weeks time no.1 - i SUCK, and no.2 I just have to leave a server with armor spamming. Nothing, absolutely nothing, is more annoying than a bunch of a**es in a clan spamming a spawn point.
 
I'll play if someone can carry my dead weight.
It will need to be someone strong, believe me. :hophead: I'll be in after I get my kids down, around 8:30 Central. Someone find a good server and post the IP and we'll all join.

I added Mark Davis's BF2tracker to the first post. Here it is for the lazy:Mark Davis

Hoping to get on tonight. I will look at the calendar and plan one Friday or Saturday coming for the great big FBG fest. It will need to be a server without Team Balance set so we can join the same team.

 
Freaking admin booted me so he could get in. Enjoyed playing, I'll try to get back in. Mad Cow punished Mark Davis for an accidental teamkill by the way.

It was actually an accident. I meant to forgive, but the lights were so low and I hit the wrong button. Nevertheless, one of you decided to take it in your hands to retaliate, so whatever.As for the incident, I was in plain site with no other enemies in sight, and Mark decided to fill the Cow full of lead on full auto. :topcat:

Sorry dude, did I bother to revive you?

Well, he did warn you that someone was going to have to carry his dead weight.Stupid charter has been out since I got booted from the server, will play some more tomorrow.

Not so much. :cry: I was getting pretty pissed on that map due to some medics, though. I desperately needed to rekit, and they kept reviving only to get immediately killed. I left that server and joined a Wake 2007 server for another 90 minutes after I left that one you guys were on.

Here is a question, though. I was sitting at 6600 points yesterday when I logged on, and you know what? It says I got 2 more unlocks?? All of a sudden, there they are wanting me to unlock some weapons. Now, do I wait and see what the new patch is gonna have, even though I get 2 more in 1000 points, or do I hurry and get them, thinking it is some kinda glitch that will soon be fixed?

Any ideas?

BTW - I am deciding between the L-Scar, PKM and the Engineer auto shottie.

As for flash bangs, you get them automatically when you take the FX2000. I used them a little last night and had them used on me repeatedly on Karkand. :hot:

 
I took 'em - SCAR and Jackhammer. Took Jackhammer just so I can get the new SMG Engineer when it comes out with the new patch. Wishing I had taken PKM over SCAR, but oh well. I always play between Medic, Spec Ops and with the FX2000, Assault is getting up there, too.

I got those 2 unlcoks also - pretty strange... I'm going to hold off on unlocking anything until the next patch though. I'm interested to see what the new weps are like
 
Im back baby!! 21-10 in a round on karkand. just missed the bronze. Had a big lag spike that i cant explain. It happens every once in a while and becomes unplayable for about a minute. Once it settles, im fine

edit: saving my 2 unlocks for after the patch

The new unlocks are a sniper rifle and an engineer's SMG, it appears.I am only 1000 points from the next 2 unlocks anyway, so I decided to get those now. The next 2 will likely be the engineer's SMG and then the PKM, or I could go PKM and the other support. Is the new support from SF any good?

 
As for the unlocks, it is currently a bug that is allowing it it seems, caused by Gamespy. Everyone is grabbing them because you never know if it will close off. They say you will get 1 free unlock with the new patch.

 
had a few big rounds, then the lag hit me again. I keep finishing in 4th place in my rounds, costing me a medal each time. Very frustrating

I got the same unlocks, went ahead and took them. I only have one weapon left unlocked now (I think a medic mp7, looked crappy even though I'm usually a medic).

The Medic one is actually pretty freaking awesome.
 
Okay, I have been playign Battlefront with a...um, less than legal copy, but I have now bought the game. I want to get in on the action.

Do I need gamespy? I have stock game plus the latest update installed. I've also downloaded the 3 map packs from totalbf2.

What else do I need to play with the FBGs?

I got on tonight for my first multi-player. By the time i joined the game, we were down 150 to 18. Our last base was basically surrounded. I was killed twice real quick, but was able to pick up 2 quick kills to go 2-2.

What is this jump-to-prone move everyone does? what's the benefit of that?

its called dolphin diving. its lame and an exploit. its getting eliminated in the next patch. Learn to play the right way. All the divers will be hurting when the patch is released.

Accurate shooting down?
 
Oh, and I am going in in a few minutes.
was just on, but lagged out again. Another 4th place finish on karkand after the commander got his 2X bonus. god i hate that.o yeah, and accurate shooting doesnt help against the big time dolphin divers. the ones that go side to side at a million miles an hour are impossible to hit

I know. I was just funnin' ya.I was on for a little while with some FBG's and never really got a good groove, perhaps because the other team kept pVVning us.

At the end I kept trying to get repair points for a badge, shoulda never done that. The shotgun is worthless on there. Well, one good round on the night is better than most I have I guess.

The new unlocks are going to be sniper and anti-tank not engineer.When the special forces expansion pack came out the had extra unlocks for all the classes except the sniper and anti-tank.

The extra unlock for the engineer was the MP-7 so there will be no extra unlock for the engineer.

IIRC

 
So where do you guys play? Do you usually stick to the same server or hop around? Can I play? The game seems tactically sound so I think I'd be good at it. Do you use headphones and the VOIP features to coordinate your attacks?

Most of us have each others BF2 screen names. Use BF2tracker.com and create a buddies list and then check your buddies list before starting up BF2. BF2tracker will tell you who is on line and what server. When you start up BF2 go to multiplayer and join by IP and enter the IP number of the server you found on BF2tracker.If you read this whole thread most of our BF2 screen names are listed.

I like to us VOIP to coordinate attacks but BF2 no longer recognizes my mic :hot:

I don't know what changed, I used to be able to use it but not anymore.

I'll probably be on tonight around 9:30 EST.

My BF2 screen name is HorribleJoe71. I put a =FBG= tag in front of my name so it's easier to find for my fellow FBGers.

Have fun :)

I'll be on but I have to figure out why my PC keeps rebooting into the second game. May be my new video card or something.

I will add you to our master list. The best thing you can do is log on to BF2tracker, then go to the first page of this thread and start clicking all of ourt profiles, then add us as a buddy (button in lower right). Then we show up as your buddies and what server we are on. I will be planning a massive FBG invasion in about 2 weeks, though. I will then be able to yell into my mic so it works since my kids won't be home and I won't have to worry about waking them. :wall:
 
Hey Gator. Mad Cow keeps an updated list of players in the first post of this thread. Add all those to the BF2 Tracker buddylist and you can almost always find an FBG or two. It's not always a good thing, as we were schooled routinely last night. Too much gumbo and beer I guess.

Day-um that was frustrating last night. :wall: Then the FBG exodus began.
