Poor Pixie :alright:

Just got the last DVD version in the area ... damn I hate when they release early. Anyone get the CD version? There are a few still here in the stores and I need to pick one up for MiniChiken. Is there any difference except the number of disks?

Will be installing it soon ...

WooT !!

The DVD serial key is on the back top of the manual, but the install program says it's on the back of the case in the lower left hand corner. I almost gave EA a piece of my mind for selling me a DVD ROM with no serial number. :P

Same with the CD.

I'm sure they've had a few calls to customer support and some sap programmer got a 'talkin to' about the gaf.

I'm playing the Demo at work. It's awesome, but I'll NEVER buy it because of spawn camping(When you join a server only to find there's 3 minutes left and the enemy is camping in the ONLY spawn point you have and they just blast you with a tank when you aprear in front of them, then what good is that?...), and oh yeah, my home machine can't run it.. I got only a 1.4G Cpu, and it takes a 1.7 or higher.

ANyone want to donate an AMD Athlon XP 1.7Ghz chip to me? PLEEEEAASSSE!!?!?!
My Mobo is an MSI- KT7266 Pro2 (non raid). Or something like that.. I haven't seen the box for the mobo in ages, sooooo???...

Work machine = 2.4G, but, with a $40.00 video card, it still runs like ASS...

BAWK!

Ren says if we upgrade we're gonna get a good one. it was like 129.00 at circut city. the one he's lookin at (don't remember what it is off hand) But if all goes as planned with his army schedual, he's going to upgrade my pc first and get the game, then do the same thing for his pc a month later.

But first thing is first....
we are going to visit family in AZ from the 3rd till the 7th and then to Vegas for a mini honeymoon...from the 7th till the 9th and then back to AZ for a day and then back home here to bright sunny TX

BAWK
will be playing soon enough though i'm sure.

No GeForce4 card will work with this game. If you are gonna upgrade for around 130$ pixie, I would reccomend this...

or this

depending if you like ATI or nVidia better...

So, when is anyone playing online? And, how are you finding each other?

I was online last night, well..uhh late late late. Got teamed with some other clanners on same squad with comms and we were kicking some :firing:

Looking forward to teaming with my Chikadees.

I started to play but had to get dinner. I lost interest after everyone started getting kicked because of the damn punkbuster update. :(

How was the ranked server Coz?

CosmicChiken

Lots of really tight clan play. It's obvious that quite a few groups are really taking to the squad-based dynamics of the game. It's reminds me of the top groups in MW during the heyday.

The level of competition is pretty high already and it's going to take some serious team play to come out on top.

I did manage to unlock most of the "bonus" weapons after an hour or so of play. :blob:

Just for visability, GeForce 4 cards DO work with BF2, just need the NEW drivers for NVidia....nicely packaged with the game I might add =) Or downloadable. 77.30 I think.
