I downloaded a cheat to play with it and see what it did and got banned ! still never mind.

BF2 is great love it, been on it for hours & hours.I loved bf1942 with the helicopter mods , bf2 is just so much easier. Just upgraded to 1500 broadband and found lots of new servers in asia-pac with 250-350 pings.

But what is with that server select screen - no favourites !!! Argh!!!

I've got a gaming habit, currently being satisfied by World of Warcraft. I don't have any big plans to stop or anything, but I do also have a bit of a surfing habit, currently being unsatisfied by the shite weather, proximity to the coast and surf conditions here and I'm hoping that living 300 yards from a great surfing beach will change all that. God only knows it might help shift this bloody beer belly.

Default Re: Online gaming

im thinking of renting a teamspeak server so all the EXpats that play online can also chat to all the other expats playing,if you are on the same server playing it makes it more fun,Find that BF2 coms is not so good.Will keep you posted about the teamspeak server.

Default Re: Online gaming

I'm hoping to be able to continue playing BF2. I'm nearly up to my next rank.

I've heard that broadband in Aus is rubbish though. I only play servers with pings of under 100 here in the UK.

There'll be a patch out soon that will sort out the browser and may add a fav server list. Or you could use all seeing eye.

My nickname is sexydave on BF2
