Battlefield 2 Demo

[.vooDoo.]

The Demo was released this weekend(PC only) and all I have to say is wow. I only got to play it for a few minutes but tonight I should have a few hours on my hands to spend playing. I can only hope that this game is ported to Mac, well...if need be, who knows with this whole Intel thing going on. Im sure alot of you are interested in this game so ill post more on it later.

WoooHoooOOO!!! 

Damn, I can't seem to find any decent servers, 47,5 kb/s right now from some BT place. =/

[BFG]

yeah this game looked good enough for you to go out and buy a intel box... oh wait 

voods give us the full run down when you have had some time to play (would be interested to know what the System Specs are as well!)

[.vooDoo.]

WoooHoooOOO!!! 

Damn, I can't seem to find any decent servers, 47,5 kb/s right now from some BT place. =/

I paid the $1.95 for the high bandwith download from www.seemeplayme.com and downloaded @ 600kbps. and only too 10 minute for a 800mb file.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Of Course we're all sick with anticipation on your report...hope you styed up alll fuckin night just to come rub the low-down in our faces...

--bastard---

Not looking forward to the three year wait for the mac version tho...

I just had a horrible thought..only two or three more gens down the line...were gonna find ourselves in the heat of battle with the most unbelievable mods and life-like bots, devastating ordnance and get all involved, and form new clans, only to discover  form some underground peacenik e-zine that we're actually flying planes and operating tanks against very real chinese and korean enemies...

omfg.

[.vooDoo.]

omfg this game sucks...is that what you wanted to hear?

Shiex, It no longer takes that long for games to come to the mac. I would expect this game to hit the mac shelves in less then 6 months.

ooo....wait.. i wasnt being an ass Voo...
That was total friendly jealousy. (on second read, my post probably came off wrong-sorry bro)
I was expecting you to rave about how kick-ass it was, and how you were playing, and smiling and laughing, and..and...

so...it sucks?
wha?

and i was being dramatic about the wait.
omg..does it really suck? after all those cool ass looking vids?

MORE INFO!! please hunny?

Nope, I took it the right way. I know you well enough that You were kidding around. It was just sarcasim on my part.. I should have put a "lol" after that comment.

Maybe I should have said it this way: OMFG !!!! This game sucks!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAAH.....NOT!!

 

p.s. If it makes you feel any better, the demo is buggy as all hell. I especially love all the noobs out there hosting 32 game servers on a dsl modem that couldnt even host 6 players. Fucking dumbasses. They need to build some sort of check in the system that only allows people to host servers per there up load.

Can't BF2 go up to 100 players?

[.vooDoo.]

The largest Ive seen was 64 player servers. I cannot confirm or deny max players being 100.

Here is a great article I found for some systems tested on....

apologies for spelloing errors, just got home from the Sox kicking some Red's assess!!!, wOOt.

[.vooDoo.]

Yep, some maps will support up to 100 players.

This game is said to sport graphics on par with Half Life 2, and utilizes modern weaponry like the TOW anti-tank missle, laser guided bombs, and the joint strike fighter jet. Two new character classes will be playable, the special operations and heavy weaponry characters, each with it's own unique abilities. Most of these weapons and vehicles will be available on various maps, some of which will be able to support up to 100 players.

Electronic Arts is also promising a built in VoIP, that will allow players to communicate effectively with their team. There will also be a global tracking system that will rank each individual player worldwide. Players who build up their rank and history in the game will be able to unlock new weapons and abilities to further their gaming experience.

Another exciting development for the game is the built in Battlefield VCR which will allow servers to record an entire battle for future reference. Teams will be able to show off their entire game history online with this feature.

Bf2 release has come and gone. Game is amazing. How does this sound....grabbing your special forces kit, hopping into a plane, flying across the map at high alltitudes, ejecting, parachutting above your enemies main base, planting c4 on their radars and artillery, blowing it up right as they spawn so they can witness their base crumbling.

im more of a spawnowner

A mate of mine just sent me a txt message saying he's just bought a copy of BF2 to go with his brand new top spec PC (euw) and well... hes been playing it non stop from last night and i think might be starting to hallucinate, before i hop in the car and go see what can be done to ease the pain of this quivering wreck of a gamer i grabbed a look at some more video's of the game... and well to be honest i almost had to go change

If you havn't been and looked at the video's go, go now. if you have, then you can tell me, honestly, to the point, do we really have a hope in hell of seeing this game hit the mac, now or even when the intel box's ship? I saw the great big ugly beast of the gamespy icon in the server browser window which suggests all the MP is delbt with by them (so same problem as AA then there) ... but i want, i want badly, its everything that AA pretended it was going to be but cant even piss on from a small incline.

Shiex, It no longer takes that long for games to come to the mac. I would expect this game to hit the mac shelves in less then 6 months.

... I feel a mass email to requests@aspyr.com coming on...

i played BF2 and my reaction was the same as BFG's, wow! it would b great if it would come out for mac, its abit a mix of Ghr and RvS, Big maps like in Ghr god damn good graphics like in RvS well its even better then the rvs graphics but i think the danger to get addicted to this game is about that big as by WoW, cuz some weapons u can only chose if u have done something, then theres a list like the BTs but a bit more professional. And the ingame voice is hilarious no stupid Premium or something like that..... i just loved this game...

[BFG]

the graphics blew me away, but what really blew me away was just how seamless it all looked - you've got 64 players on foot, in tanks, jeeps, in jets and helicopters, not to mention small boats etc, and the whole thing looks so fluid - a freaking huge battle ground, mixing them all together. For those of u that remember the first dev of halo - this is what they were talking about...

i don't know anything about the game engine (im guessing its proprietary? ) or weather it makes use of havok or any 3rd party PE , the biggest stumbling block looks to be the networking (im presuming that even to make it mac v mac  would require a huge amount of re-writing for the networking base) ... but well i want, and what else have we got to look forward to;

what are the big games announced for the mac for 2006? well this autum we've got Colin Mcrae rally (which looks fantastic, i can't wait ) and well 2006 we might just see UT3 make its appearance... but well... what about BF2

and rvs black arrow?
