Sounds are ok but your own weapons are muted in comparison to the enemies.

thats what it is like in real life, i know the f-88 AUS styre is seems real quiet when you shoot. All you can hear is the sound of the working parts and the bang is next to nothing from your rifle but from everyone elses its loud as

I LOVE IT, LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!



Sorry boy's but this is the fucking bollocks!! WAY more realistic than both COD and 2142. Much better than BF2 as there is no unrealistic prone spam ( sorry lylow i know you love laying down) Your forced to use cover much more, and think about what you are doing. You can't just rush in and hope for the best, it's not just about how quickly you can press the buttons. The aiming and recoil is soooo much better. Once you get a couple of ranks and unlock the other guns it's all good!!

i thought you were a run in a shoot everything guy Rocka? seems you have changed reckon its worth the buy?

HELL YES!!!


I only ever ran around like a crazy person in 2142 because you could get a way with it, this is way more unforgiving.


Hasn't stopped me getting my knife bronze badge and 20 odd tags already though

thats the way! if i get it ill probably do the same thing watch ya back Rocka

HOW DO I SEARCH FOR AN AUSSIE SERVER?

You cant. Great isnt it?


The boys have been playing on "Hypernia Bad Company 2 Beta Sydney 8 "

But you cant search for it - u just have to scroll and scroll and scroll and look and look and look.

Favourite it, and we can go there. Its pretty much lag free. But I find that once you start getting shot, you almost cant move - and if u get hit about 50% youre pretty much guaranteed to get the extra 50% taken off you before the bullets stop.

my server list only has 5 servers in america and 1 in singapore

The favorite list seems to be working add in every Hypernia server you find. If we all try and play on Hypenia servers then it makes it easier to find each other, plus when you join a server remember which one so when others join ts you can tell them.

im convinced that my computer is too shitty to run this game at an acceptable playing level. the only kills i can get is with the sniper rifle if im lucky and by spamming with the tanks esp the russian AA gun 1 with the motar in the drivers position. also can any1 fly the RC UAV chopper?

yes i think you push r or f to go up and down. i locked on to a target and i pushed the spacebar to fire

yeah i got the UAV sorted now, i luv it, but i dont love my shitty pc

I look forward to this american server style ff off spam ending.

And shit loads of other changes.

The rush game type is fun but the engine, geez it's a laggy, floaty....pos.

It's like playing 2142 with a 250+ ping.

Yet strangely...i'm going to...go...play it

Ive really enjoyed playing the beta version. Lots of little glitches, a bit laggy and seemingly quite heavy on the system requirements. Seeing as my 8800 gt 512mb bit the dust im now running a 8800gts 320 mb that a mate gave me. Not the best for a brand new release i guess but ive managed to still have several good rounds!



This is my best round yet!I was stoked! lol

I think this thread needs to be moved to BC2 section.

Good news for me though. Finally my ram arrived and my good gears are operational again and the x2 pos is back at my bros.

Much smoother, much more clear but now, instead of feeling floaty, it feels heavy.

Whacked up some 5 and 6k + scores (scoreboard, not badges) in my 1st few games and at last getting no less than 75fps(90ish avg) instead of the 18 to 25 i got on average before.

Still getting the odd moment where you knife someone or something similar and the game just stalls for a sec or two, then resumes.
Happened on both comps so it's surely the beta.

Thats naughty.

Your not meant to screenshot bc2 beta Rockets

i read of a few people who's 8800gt g92 have died. the common theory was the higher clockrate and cheaper components used compared to the g80 cards.

tru shit!?! cant screenshot! whoops lol. im sure some other people are doing much worse!

i can't find the original thread i found today but this thread talks about all 8800's dying.

I've got 2 X 8800gts and are at 90% - 100% gpu usage on bc2.

They hit the 70 deg mark.....still going.......but good reason to get
a new card if they fail.

well if one fails man id be keen on ya other one if ya willing to part with it. If they have more ram than mine cause mines only a 320mb...

I think mine are the 512mb ones, hope to get new card in
about a month, so see how we go.

ok just got my new pc and am dl the beta now, will i need i new key? i presume i will. any 1 got a spare or know where i can get 1? i NEEEEEEEED to play this game!

Err, just use the key i already gave you??

can i use that even though i registered on my old pc?
