A battlefield2 thread

been playing this since the day of release. But i still have a few questions. When doing an update server list on multiplayer and it says 28/30 player (1) what is the (1) mean??? is it the amount of times of been on that server or maybe someone watching and not playing???

It does get annoying with the players, but i find myself spending 20 minutes finding a game where there is real sqaud action and not just every man for himself.

try =BBUK= servers

i usually play on UKWF (used to be a member) but i am getting more into the city maps only. any servers i should add to my favourites?!

Hehe, funny seeing you here, I was playing on the same squad as you a night or two ago on UKWF servers.

You might want to check out the 50klicks Inf. Only server (bravo) here:

We're not as busy we used to be but most nights we get a good amount of skilled and regular players. Hope to see you there sometime!

see ya around!
 
Is there a way to stop the spawn select screen stop appearing when Im dead. You can dismiss it for a few seconds but it keeps popping back up, I like to watch the death cam sometimes but that gets in the way
 
Infantry maps are great, lots more fun, lots more killing

Infantry ruined bf2 imo. 80% of the servers are Karkand Infantry. You can't get killed by tanks or artillery it's so simple, go medic in a medic team and you pretty much have god mode, I have done it and ended up with 72 - 0. But the point is that infantry has made the game so easy, so everyone just plays that now and spams nades all day and sits in teams of medic as soon as they get shot run behind a wall and re-heal themself.

I miss the vast vehicle servers, maps like Mashtuur City, Songhua Stalemate, Zatar Wetlands etc being played constantly. For the record my favorite map and favorite map according to my stats is Zatar Wetlands :).
 
^^ I agree. If people want to play a "pure" infantry game, why not play one that is specifically designed as such, games like the CoD series, CSS, UT etc.

Battlefield is about the whole battlefield - armor, jets and helos ;)

Agreed, although choppers can be god damn annoying sometimes when you have only 1 flag left and your just being owned each time you spawn! Thats normally when you try to change team though :p

dead game

BF2 isn't dead; far from it! Still has plenty of FULL 64man servers!
 
The problem is the argument goes either way. Some of the worst servers out there are running the large maps with basically a handful of jet pilots owning everything and everyone. It's always the same type of people doing it aswell; 3/4 star generals who've pretty much earned those ranks solely on jet whoring. I mean, the other day I was on Dragon Valley (50 man server) and the 4 jets pilots in the game were almost 100 points above everyone else. The worse thing was that even though the Chinese team were losing badly, the two pilots in the J-10's had the highest score in the game. :mad: You can also say the same about choppers, but at least they're not invincible and a well organised team of players can easily give them a hard time in the air.

The really sad part is that it would only take a few tweaks to the game mechanics to balance every jet and chopper in the game. :(

I do agree that there is a "medic" problem in the infantry only server's but fortunately the IO server's I play on have a healthy mix of other classes. I find the best way to defeat the gangs of medics is to not shoot immediately but wait for them to congregate at a chokepoint or flag and then do a full on assault (with plenty of grenades :D). The key is to take them out en masse so as to prevent them from reviving each other. Any individuals remaining will either try to revive their teammates (which will leave them vunerable), try to attack you (you have an advantage) or do a runner ( ... fail, lol). I find, much too frequently, lone players try to be heroes and attempt to take on whole groups on their own. Unless they spot you, always try to analyse the situation carefully, find a better position, wait for other team mates and most of all THINK before you shoot.

Personally I find 64 man Karkand or Mashtuur City with vehicles the best maps in the game. You don't get gangs of medic whoring scum terrorising everyone and the tanks/apcs as annoying as they are, promote good team work and strategic gameplay.
