Just found some vids which appear to be using the new aptch somehow, shows the apache countermeasures in action, and another vid showing the more agile apache in action.:




Can't really say i notice much change in the agility of the Apache, seems to turn a bit quicker. He also has a blurb on how contermeasures work against tracers.

They DO NOT divert locked-on rockets.
They DO get rid of darts.
Flaring a dart after you were locked on WILL NOT save your ass unless you can lose their lock. The orange square will be gone.

In essence, I recommend you be fully aware of when you are darted. FLARE IMMEDIATELY! You will be able to flare again in about 10-15 seconds.

Apparently thats the new chat window at the top left, pressing the console key makes it larger according to the forum. Also infantry only mode is meant to be coming as well....which in most map swill probably make next to no difference since the vehicle count is anemic.

Ok guys due to the **** DICE put out we've decided to make the following changes to our servers:

CANCELLING:

32 slot Normal MIX MODE
32 slot CONQUEST
16 SLOT SQDM

CHANGES:

After speaking to a good few people 24 man servers seems to be the way forward.... i'm not complaining as it will saves us some cash....

SO:

BC2 server: 24 man HARDCORE MIX MODE

NAME: Multiplay | =TFU= | HARDCORE MIX MODE | OCUK

(changing end of month and looking for new admin)

Hmm? Multiplay have 24 for 19 and 32 for 25

tbh, not having dedicated servers that you can host on your own hardware is a lame move from DICE / EA :(

Agreed :/ I'd much prefer to run things on my dedi.

At KC I was paying £32 for 32 man server... and new customers can get 24 for £14.50. Bit of a joke.

Now think about it for a second.. getting those unlocks (which amounts to no more than a line of text in some code if you had no intention of using them) can't be the reason you were playing was it?
 
wow this game is awesome. im still very much a noob but i couldnt realyl enjoy this game to the max due to a rubbish gfx card. got a nice lil upgrade and this game is so pretty to look at and the multi is great.

I was gett in an average of like 800-1000 points whihc i guess was low average. This was as assault. I then switched to medic for a giggle and boy do u rack up more points quicker. Healing and reviving. My average points per game doubled and i was hitting the 2000-3000 with only something like 5 kills for the whole of a conquest match.

Insane. Is it supposed to be like this?

edit: how do u add the ocuk server i cant see an option to add a server only search by name. i just been playing on some server called beerdrinkers mainly. Also how come i cant see my ping or anyone elses ping.

It'll be another week before they find another problem then.

4 years later they keep finding problems and never release a patch.

dont worry i havn't 'stopped' playing BC2 im just going to allow more time for other games now i have got this far, just going to calm down on BC2 for a bit lol :P
 
The skill is when you manage to get 3000-4000 in game points playing assualt or engeneer, or recon for that matter, armed with C4, a pistol and a shotgun.
 
anyone else finding that they sometimes can't hit diddly squat with shotguns?

So far today I've had very close range shots do absolutely nothing multiple times

I think you missed the point mate. You play the game by trying to win/squad play/going for the comms etc. Nothing worse than having a bunch of people on your team playing for unlocks and only a couple of you trying to win the damb game :rolleyes:

Thought i'd share this with you

I've been playing BC2 on my old PC since release day, I had to force DX9 and run most settings on low with no AA to get decent FPS on line, my latency would be anywhere between 160 and 200 depending on how busy the server was, if was too busy it would go over 200 and be unplayable

So what I hear you think...

I built a new PC this week but i'm using the SAME GPU. Last night I install BC2 and i'll be honest I didnt expect that much of difference but I thought i'd try letting it apply the default DX10, put everything on high, 4 x AA and loaded a game up, this is in 1680 in both cases. I was wrong, the difference is incredible, everything is smooth the graphics are better and my latency is lower, ive seen it as low as 90's and as high as 150 but usually around 120/30. Plus I noticed weird things too, theres more voices and sounds, weird but there is.

Thought i'd let you all know, seems the game is more CPU intensive than I realised and if its been mentioned already apologies but this thread is nearly 500 pages long

Ironically I played crap all night because I cant used to it :D

Out of interest, did you go from dual to quad or simply a CPU with a higher clockspeed? Increase in RAM? Specs please! :)
