Another irritating bug is that if you're on the terrorist team the voice chatter is in Terroristeese even if you change the option to make them all English. This is really irritating because the American voice chatter is really freaking cool and adds a lot to the game, but I don't speak Sandmonkey so the beloved patriot chatter means nothing to me. Hopefully Dice fixes this or someone figures out a hack to make the terrorist voices American.

Does anyone get the feeling that this game is going to be really freaking buggy at launch? The game is a ton of fun and I can't wait to see all of the content, but there are A LOT of bugs, some minor and some major, and 1 month doesn't seem like enough time to iron them all out.


dude its russian.

I cant do shit today

laggy and it keeps crashing. I dont think the update they did has rolled out to steam either

tab, with those specs i wouldn't expect much. your memory is too little, video card is crap, and cpu is pretty bad too.

The game isn't even using all of my CPU! Something else is messed, imho.

And, I can't afford a new PC. :(

so how did you guys get keys? i have done everything before it even started, and like normal, got the shaft on the pc beta keys, which would be my preferred platform as i don't think this should be on a console.

i hope they make helo flying harder than bf2, like it was w/ desert combat :), bf2 was a cakewalk in the helo - way to easy flying, same w/ vietnam - too easy.

Nah it's definitely more like BF2 than DC, you pretty much get auto hovering which makes it easy as hell to fly around. That being said I would like to see the Apache toned down a little or at least throw a little more AA on the map. All you get is that one AA tank and most of the time people just drive it in and get it blown up without even shooting at the apache that's slaughtering your team.

I finished unlocking all of the assault stuff last night, I'm going to move on to medic and then recon after that. So far engineer is still my favorite I think, I just hate being without any anti tank gear at all.

Seems like there's a lot of gripes on this game. I guess I'll wait until it comes out for some reviews even thought I really want something new to stretch my 5870's legs.

It's a little difficult, be easy to get used to. I am sure the joystick nuts will be fine with flying.

I got a few beta keys, including my STEAM pre-order key, but I gave them to local friends already, or i'd share.

Bah I have another question - how do I add servers to my favorites? I can't seem to find the option anywhere.


Don't think they save. My friends list seems to reset every other day...another bugged I mentioned. I also want that, when you click, LAT, or GAME SERVER NAME, it will sort asc/desc.

it doesn't have to tax it at 100% to mean CPU needs upgrade.

just try to do what you can, turn off unnecessary stuff. you might have to edit the ini file to get rid of things like bloom.

Seriously the server browser is so bad it's almost insulting. I have heard that previous BF games had terribad browsers too so who knows if they'll actually follow through with the promise to improve it.

Pre-ordered the game on Steam. I took a bit of a plunge by ordering on faith alone (had seen 2 videos that looked sweet), so far despite my whining in this thread the game is very, very fun. It's just a bit rough around the edges.

I agree. It could be better, it could be TONS worse.

To add favorites(which mostly work) hit the arrow after the serner name, you can add to favorites or view details from the menu that pops out

You realize they're speaking Russian, right? Sheesh, if you're going to fling about racist terms at least get your shit right. It's to be expected though, given the inverse relationship between bigotry and intelligence.

Non-English speakers are all the same to me. Their strange words confuse and therefore anger me.

Well they already stated they are revamping/scraping the current server browser etc. So hopefully you will be satisfied there.
