Can anyone give me any tips on this thing? I've pretty much given up on it already. When I eventually spawn and don't immediately blow up on about 20 grenades and can go out and actually fight, my weapons just can't hit anything. I even tried just camping out prone with my rifle on semi and after firing about 10 shots the guy just kills me straight away. The only way i've gotten kills so far is to run straight at them firing from the hip, which seems more accurate than iron sights anyway.
Does anyone play BF2 anymore? (IE Should I buy it from Steam)

sniping is the best in bf2 i reckon, although medic and support are pretty fun too.
BF2 is the best game in the world ever, nothing will ever beat it.

tips and tricks. Push enter or capslock before spawning to choose a spawn location. If it is towards the end of the game and your team is getting owned and you don't have an un-cap, then you will just get slaughtered, however, if you are new, pick a spawn point away from teh action, get used to the gui, guns and stuff. Then look on the map to find out where the majority of your team mates are, go to them and just try to kill people and take flags basically.
Also to play special forces you need to click community, then click activate on special forces unde rthe mods category. I've had bf2 for years and years, but i bought it on steam so i don't have to bother with patches anymore

Awaiting on an email from support.
Nabbed this from Steam as that was a silly price.
Looking forwards to getting back up and running.
Don't really wanna restart all the unlocks n stuff so can't play until I get my account info from support
Not played in aaages, anyone suggest any decent servers?

Band of brothers server is good
I usually sort servers by ping, and then look for one that suits me.
Infantry only on the karkand map is usually a good frantic push for flags - and a good baptism of fire for noobs.
As always - get into a squad for a better all round game, team work like spotting etc makes it so much better.

bf2 complete for £7.99 on dvd ,any updates needed on this one once installed apart from mods and stuff?
Not sure, best way is check your version once installed, then compare it to the patch versions.
Just to add, using Anti Aliasing is banned on some servers as it prevents the anti cheat software from working properly.

thanks matty , didnt know that,strange
What the hell, who on earth wants to play without AA ? Since when does this happen, I haven't played BF2 in aaaages but this sounds like something that might kill it off. Who on earth writes an anti cheat bit of code that doesn't always properly work with AA enabled, in fact, what has anti cheat to do with AA anyways ?

Well worth the small price .
It has something to do with capturing screens for review - they just come up blank.
This is only on some servers and is to do with issues between PB and Vista.
It may well have been resolved by now - its been a while since I played.

I'm not sure about how the the Steam-bought version of BF2 is with mods. I know with some games it's not possible to mod when bought from Steam.
May as well get the Battlefield 2 multi-pack with Special Forces included if your not going to buy from Steam, with the gurantee that you will be able to modify it as much as you want without screwing it up.

i think it works with mods
What on earth am I missing. I swear my guns aren't the same as anyone else's. I can be perfectly still, prone, aiming down the scope on the L85 and firing 2-3 round bursts and watch them all hit the building around my target, then they drop prone and I see their muzzle flash and i'm dead before I see them fully lie down. Even when I do hit it takes like 5 or 6 rounds to kill a guy, but I always die in one hit.
