» Battlefield 2 Review

Battlefield 2 is here and Jakub's got a review of it. We'd have had it for you on day 1, but what's the point - there wasn't much of a way to test it online, was there? So without further adieu...

FIRST THING THAT ANNOYS ME ABOUT THE GAME IS RELOADING OF RIFELS THT
TAKES TO LONG REAL TRAINED SOLDIERS (FROM EXPIRINCE) RELOAD MUCH
FASTER.

NOTE IN THE M-4/M-16 AND AK (I MEAN IN REAL LIFE) YOU JUST HAVE TO
REPLACE THE MAGAZINE WHEN YOU HAVE A BULLET IN THE BARREL.

AND WHEN YOU ARE OUT OF BULLITS ALL YOU HAVE TO DO WITH M16 IS
REPLACE MAGAZINE AND GIVE IT A KNOCK ON THE SIDE.

UNFORTUNETLY NO GAME HAS MADE THIS OPTION.
FOR ME IT IS ONE OF THE IMPORTANT SMALL DETAILS.
THE GAME IS NOT BREATH TAKING IN GRAFICS ACCEPT SOME OF THE LEVELS
OF ARAB TOWNS THAT FEAL TO ME LIKE PLAYING IN WEST JERUSALEM OR
SOMTHING REALY NICE.

OTHER THEN THAT THE GAME ENGINE IS SLOW AND THE GUI AND SERVER IS
LOUSY.

AND MOST ANNOYING IS THERE IS NO ABBILETY TO PLAY WITH PLAYERS
WITHIN YOUR CLASS THAT DONT JUST RUN AROUND AND PLAY IN SQUADS WITH
TACTICS.

CD Key already in use! Go buy another serial from EA for a $10
handling fee. If you ever connect to a 3rd party server - even
accidentaly via that play now bs - they can pick your serial out of
the "hashed" ban list.


Friends don't let friends buy EA games.

If my system can run DOOM 3 smooth, they have serious programming
issues to work out with this game. Is this one of those Nvidia only
games? Guess I'll stick to the much better game of call of duty for
my war needs.

oh wow I thought the server list was just a demo issue..

till I'm loading the game.

maybe I'm stupid, but I dont' see any favorite server listings too.

so I find myself punching in the IP.. or having it in the short
cut's property..


but yeah, the interface. geez. I kept thinking.. maybe my computer
is really slow today..


other than that and few other problems, its overall a great game to
spend time on. I gotta say, I was surprised to hear the chinese
voicing, some of them are done fairly well. I mean, they can be a
bit more enthusastic in the heat of battle (imagine someone calmly,
softly saying "I need backup")


yeah I know not eveyrone's chinese and not everyone can understand
it..


but overall its done pretty well, especially the female operator
voice, telling u UAV status, etc. I guess I'm just surprised that
they hired real chinese and middle east voice actors.

May not be encouraged but 99% of most Medal Of Honor Awardees died
by sacrificing themselves to save their fellow service men.

This engine seems even less effecient than the doom3 engine. I've
got an Athlon 64 3800+, a 6800GT,a gig of DDR500, and three striped
raptors. This game should fly even with the detail levels maxed,
but you're right it seems to do a lot of hard drive access during
gameplay and suffers from frequent slowdowns. Every other game in
existance runs very smoothly on my system no matter how high the
detail levels/AA/AF are set. The game is fun but I'm disappointed
with the effeciency of the game engine, because it doesn't look any
better than the source engine but runs at less than half the speed.

I like the game. My biggest complaint is the brain dead morons
playing it. Seems like every server you join has some idiot running
down teammates left and right. What is worse is the vehicles that
are best used by several players are often driven around by one
idiot running down players that try to get in.

I don't know if it's just me, but does the aircraft carrier (on the
demo) often run like the queen of england with a corgy latched to
each ankle?


I'll be running around the rest of the level without a problem, then
spawn on the carrier to find I get a frame rate around 5fps.

But at other times I won't have this problem.

Weird?

The crashes to desktop are killing me! Yes, my card is supported.
Yes, my drivers are up to date. Yes, my etc... I've read all the
readme's and boards and have tweake the hell out of my system.


I feel like i've been reamed in the rear. I can't take this
unfinished piece of %!!@ back because it is open... So now I have
to wait until it is unfucked with a couple of patches while they run
to the bank with my money.


Yeah, I know they can't make it work on all possible hardware and
software combinations - nature of the 'PC beast' n stuff - but these
crash to desktop problems are hardly rare. In fact from what I am
reading, you are lucky if you haven't had it happen to you at least
once.


This kind of thing should be criminal.
