Re: BF4 Bullshit

The video is entertaining, but those firefights are how the game should work. The reason the guy got killed is he either missed or didn't aim for the head. Gotta aim for the head and remember game state is ahead of what you see on the screen so you gotta act before you think you do. There's a ton of...

You have a bad vidcard? Maybe exchange it for a new one? Do a little return switcharoo or use your warranty?

What I like is the slew of 'new features' addded like Supply drop icons have been added to the map, the names of passengers in a vehicle can now be seen, and a favorites and history list has been made so you are able to find your favorite servers much more easily. Wow man thanks EA. Those are nifty ...

I had a 7800 gtx and wasn't impressed in bf2. I thought my x800 xt ran better so I returned it. YMMV

Yeah take out soundcard. Uninstall it. Turn off onboard sound. TAke your router out of your network setup and connect directly to your cable modem. Use one stick of ram. Try both one at a time. Turn off Windows firewall and antivirus. The basic philosophyis reduce your pc to the simplest setup neede...

More thoughts. PLay with only one stick of ram. Uninstall and take out your soundcard. Disable onboard sound. Yeah and make sure it's not a thermal problem. Test with another similarly intensive game to check this. Also does it crash in single player? Max out bots/AI settings and play for 1/2 hour.

I alt-tab all the time and never had a problem. I know having some extra memory helps. As does having your O/S pretty streamlined. And having a decent cpu, etc helps too.

I don't think BF2 supports it. But neither did '42 from what I remember. And I did it all the time there too.

Also shut off all this little background programs that run. uninstall/Reinstall bf2 might help. Or reformat, reinstall windows. unisntall/reinstall drivers helps sometimes too. Is something running hot in your pc? IF you don't have anything overclocked then maybe open case and blow a big ass fan int...

Well to troubleshoot I would make my home network as simple as possible, ie plug my pc directly into my cable/dsl modem and then play the game and see if you get the same results. INternal firewalls and anti-virus should all be taken down. I would also reformat and reinstall windows with pretty much...
