bf2142 problems

Surfer · 17 Apr 2008 at 18:50

For some reason bf2142 frame rate is being crippled and basically acts as if it is EXTREMELY laggy when in game. (even at lowest possible settings) My ping is a steady 30 ish.

1. tried different drivers no difference

2. tried the "delete radial.cdb" trick no difference

So now i figure i'll uninstall and reinstall... But bugger me... i cant find my manual - i have the case but the serial code is on the manual and i cant install bf2142 without it.

i need bf2142 = stress therapy.

ideas? would the key be in the registry? (i guess not now since ive uninstalled it)

Think they have basically dumped 2142 now anyway, its past its day now in the last 6-7 months servers have literally gone to a full stop.

rly? i saw smt about Battlefield heroes is this Battlefield 3 then? (graphics look to be similar mould as TF2..either that or it was just the advert)

It's a F2P game, with a small cash shop for cosmetics, trying to be casual pick up and play like TF2 is... certainly not BF3 however. That's a whole other game

I think Dice are working on a new patch 1.50

sounds like the punkbuster problem I was having a while back, some process called something along the lines of pnkbstr_B or something, it was definitely the "b" process and not the "a". Can't remember how I fixed it mind, but hopefully it'll put you on the right tracks.
