I will be Pixel_Pusher (with clan tags ATF, dunno if that's needed). I'll hopefully be fraggin' at some point tonight on my clan's server if it's set-up in time.
Man, the 5th of March can't come fast enough, damn you usa'ians!
For the people who played BF2/2142, whats it like playing with 32 people compared to 64. Is there still a lot of action going on? Also we need a polycount server up!
Oh yes, 32 players is very intense thanks to some great level design.
For any North American STEAM users that are having trouble downloading, try changing your server to "Poland". I went from not being able to download at all (servers too busy) to getting 600k - 1.5mb down. Thanks, Poland!
This game is by far the most intense battlefield imo... 2142 was all about rushing... if you rush in this game you die almost instantly. The close combat is very intense and you find yourself hiding behind boxes and walls a lot. In beta there were really intense squad battles trying to defend the comm stations, at first I was unsure about the game but after playing for 2-3 weeks it really grew on me.... it is very, very fun. Of course I was one of the few that loved 2142... so we'll see how well it does.
PS How do you change your steam server? I thought that was impossible unless you deleted the .blob file and relog and pray you find a good server.
"Jfletcho" is my tag (or will be, if they reset them or something, cant remember how it works)
Fucking loved the beta pre-ordered from Play ages ago, god i cant wait for africa harbour, looks...soo...fucking..moist!!
(moist=good)
edit:
to anyone new to the game who hasnt played the beta, dont give up hope if you think the guns feel weird! just have to put up with them and in time they'll feel great (in short bursts).
EA's servers look like they're getting hammered. I had a couple of good games but lots of laggy ones as well, with the occasional "Cannot connect" error thrown in.
Theres a very bad problem going around with getting kicked because the EA server cant authenticate some accounts. Happens to me every time... its a shame because the game looks and plays great.... hopefully they patch it soon.
Feel free to hit me up, my community is hosting two servers, one 32 man conquest and a 16 man squad deathmatch. Its been a blast thus far, the EA master servers went down earlier for a period but promptly came back up.
whats the difference between steam and "pc" ? isnt it the same shit ?
The steam friends-list and the BFBC2 friends-list are two seperate things. Your steam friends doesnt carry over into the game's friends-list, and vice-versa
I've had enough of MW2 now, it's just constant tubes or some speed freak runnin around quick knifing people with 120+ ping. I'm ready for something else.
Well that was Lame, so much lag last night.. I'm playing on my pc which should be fine at about 4x the min spec. I couldn't even play single player, let alone join a server multiplayer. Hopefully they'll get all their ducks in a row soon. It looks like a fun game.
I haven't gotten to play it since beta yet, but I've been hearing great reviews. I'm about to check it out now.
As far as servers go, I know a lot of us purchasing servers, my clan included, are just waiting for the providers to get their acts together. They got overwhelmed with pre-orders and are trying to catch-up. With all the server issues I've heard about so far, I'm not too upset it's taking a bit longer. The number of servers should grow a lot over the next week.
Played all day today :-D Such an awesome game.... so much more fun in a squad. So far my top score is 10180 in one round... granted got gold and like 30 other medals to help that score. Lovin' it.

I beat ur score with the double with 39 kills :P. Wow such a good time with my friends in a squad tonight. The only bad thing I can think of is that they upped the tube damage... why?
Anyways its awesome and i really like all the classes
the EA servers are apperently down until 8 til tomorow morning Europe time (i hope) damn...
ah that explains it. Well that sucks, was hoping to get some xp
Checked out the single player campaign, pretty cool so far. i LOVED the reference to modern warfare 2 in the chopper (cant remember what level it is) where sweets says about pussies with heartbeat sensors.
the setting changes a lot, some really nice zones, i'll see how the story pans out. (although we all know the main chunk of the game is MP)
EDIT:
hah, after a quick search in google i found a video instantly.

I am getting all types of different errors. Most common is when browsing for servers I will get "failed to connect to EA servers".
Less common I will refresh the server browser and after a LONG time, 5-10 999 ping servers will pop up all of which are unplayable.
Anyone else getting these problems?

What is your point? This one was to ask for PC version handles so I can shoot everyone.

playing pc as surprise duoxan hahaha
lets get to blowing stuff up
@fletcher
i played that mission today, busted up laughing about it. bad company 2 is way better the MW2 imho, but to each his own
have fun there ... might join but not now .... one game at a time .... ^^
I've seen a few MW/MW2 references as well. One point during SP your driving a quad and a conversation leads into how snowmobiles are for sissies...
