Default Battlefield 2

Anyone besides me on this forum playing this great game?

My favourite maps are Strike on Karkand, Wake Island 2007 and any other maps containing a helicopter.

It's just sooooooo fun flying the heli! Especially when you have a great gunner, who doesn't miss the TV guided missile targeted at the opponent chopper in the distance.
You can get really many frags in the MEC chopper as a gunner, man that cannon just EATS soldiers .

It's very CPU intensive though, on 64 player maps (32vs32), my P4 2.6C can just about keep up, but it's definitly playable.

The sad thing about this game is that it requires intelligence by the players, and coordination within the team/squads. If the squadmembers don't follow the squadleader and his commands, you don't nearly have as much fun as you could, and you probably wouldn't do very well in the game. The game is at its best when you're in a squad with five of your close friends, all with headsets, and go out on "missions" , such as demolishing the other team's artillery, UAV etc. Two medics, two special forces guys, one support guy and one assault guy. Makes a perfect demolition squad!

Seriously, this is the most enjoyable game I have played _ever_, I can't remember any game that has this fun multiplayer. The downsides are the idiots... Those who teamkill just to get to the tank/helicopter/whatever first, and then just drive off without picking anyone up. In other words, non-teamplaying people... They really **** you off. This is quite rare on serious servers though (hosted by Datorbutiken.com for example, Bredbandsbolaget and one.se has respectable serves too. (these are all swedish servers , gives me the best ping! (around 20-60)))

Guys tried it out yet? More than just an hour?

Yeah, good gun. My fave is the PKM, though.

@ anvir, check out my clan's servers. Just search for "ERR" and they should pull up. Two are infantry only, friendly fire off (Karkand, Jalalabad), the other is a vehicle server, FF on.

The userbar in my sig has my ingame handle. Look for any ~ERR~ guys and squad up if you can... they're great guys and know how to have a great time in BF2. If you like what you see, drop by the clan website and put in a TeamSpeak app and join in.

By the way, what GFX card are you running? BF2 can run on older cards, but it loves its RAM. a gig is the least I'd try to play using, two gig is perfect.

I have played this game since day 1, but about 9 months ago I was introduced to the Project Reality mod and rarely go back to regular BF2 unless I go on a special forces map. I highly recommend that mod check it out at Project Reality : Battlefield 2 Mod. The other bonus on playing PR mod is that everyone, I mean everyone works together in squads. I would also suggest playing BF2142, it's got a little better graphics but the same excitement.
