6/10/2005 9:56:36 PM

well after playn the demo for 30 min straight my vid card handled it quite well. no hiccups. and my overall comp temps are 50 CPU and 29 Mobo. so all in all i can handle it quite well.

6/10/2005 10:00:13 PM

oh yeah

haha i downloaded the truinstaller but didnt do the second part

6/10/2005 10:15:48 PM

This game is fucking awesome. It's a work of art. And, god damn finally; rocket launchers have a use.

pm me if you wanna play on a game together.

6/10/2005 10:36:01 PM

my monitor can go up to 1280x1024 resolutions but in the game it doesnt list any higher than 1280x960. can anyone tell me why or what i could do to make it 1280x1024 in game? i have a bfg 6800gt oc.

6/10/2005 10:46:15 PM

[Edited on June 10, 2005 at 11:16 PM. Reason : h]

6/10/2005 10:50:18 PM

996643ff

6/10/2005 11:36:22 PM

1280x1024 with everything on high and 4xaa 8af it looks great. i found a way to make it 1280x1024 res so its great now.

6/10/2005 11:47:37 PM

6/11/2005 1:50:41 AM

Anyone playing this, send me a pm well go to a server, and play together.

6/11/2005 2:05:56 AM

hey guitarguy, how did you get it to support 1280/1024?

6/11/2005 2:40:09 AM

oh god my brother has been playing this game all the fucking time recently.

6/11/2005 3:08:09 AM

ok now everytime i try to download with the tru thing it stops at 100% but it isnt finished


and when i try to dl without it stops at 1.5mb

6/11/2005 4:12:25 AM

same crappy game, slightly prettier, engine is still programmed like shit so it uses way too many resources for such lack luster graphics and gameplay. would be 49873584937548975x better if the level designers made the maps actually fun for those without a vehicle.

[Edited on June 11, 2005 at 4:33 AM. Reason : h]

6/11/2005 4:33:02 AM

different maps have different flavors, some are infantry freindly while others arent really...

Lost Village
Basarahs Night
Basarahs Day (split)
there are a few others but i dunno if they are tourny ones only or not

6/11/2005 8:23:55 AM

WTF are you talking about?

6/11/2005 8:30:30 AM

anyone know why i cant get this game even though ive tried to download it 38 times?

6/11/2005 2:35:14 PM

^ Can u describe whats happening?

You're having trouble extracting right?

Keep in mind its a zip file, so if you're using winRAR, it will stay at 0% until its extracted. So just let it extract and sit and dont touch it for 5 min.

6/11/2005 2:50:14 PM

ok i finally got it with a different download manager


now the screen goes black like its loading the game for like 2 seconds and then it just cuts right back to the desktop

[Edited on June 11, 2005 at 3:24 PM. Reason : g]

6/11/2005 3:10:02 PM

i'm just going from download.com w/o any download managers and so far its working

6/11/2005 4:07:07 PM

ive been playin it. and lovin it. i havent figured out all the squad/commando stuff yet. havent tried. but snipings a lot more fun and useful this go around. and the antitank guns actually do some damage. ive gotta play on lowest settings for now, but next week my 6800gt is comin.

6/11/2005 4:31:05 PM

6/11/2005 4:52:44 PM

MEC's jet with the 5 bombs is hot

6/11/2005 5:12:56 PM

i cant get this ish to start

6/11/2005 8:42:15 PM

i think you might need a new video card like i do

6/11/2005 9:17:04 PM

JonHGuth and pcmsurf, you both have integrated video cards on your motherboards. JonHGuth, you also have a geforce agp card of some kind that's far better, you may not need the upgrade but if you want to play the game well I'd recommend it. pcmsurf, you don't have a video card, your won't be able to run the game at all. it's shitty anyway, don't sweat it.

6/11/2005 10:12:57 PM

i'm running on a64 3000+ / 1.5GB RAM / 6600GT at highest settings just fine

though i like the old game play better, i think the graphics have improved...

6/11/2005 10:16:04 PM

wait so my card is not good enough for this game?

6/12/2005 7:32:28 AM

anybody have it freeze at account creation?

6/12/2005 3:16:36 PM

yea i had that happen and i had to close out the whole game. when i went back into it though it went through fine. i think it was cause of the zonealarm firewall.

how's the plane and helo gameplay? i havent been able to play multiplayer cause my connection sux, only dialup.
