Seems like everyone who updated to 10.4 drivers got their loading times in BC2 decreased significantly, I got the same drivers and haven't noticed any decrease in loading times at all, it feels exactly the same:wtf:

Anyone else got this? :eek:

Made mine a lot better. I am running the 4000 series though.
Went from 1.55 min 1.0 min to 15/20 seconds.

15/20 secs, thats sounds about right for me, I guess I never got the loading issue with BC2, cause thats how long it has always taken the game to load,:rolleyes:

BC2 costs a metric shitton outside the USA... cheapest we could get it here in Au was steam, $70 USD

i got it here in ireland for 10 euro of ebay steam copy been playin ever since.


My posts aren't indicative to crying but to point out the reduction in overall players in my area. The same servers that were once full (ie: put in favorites, found in history) are now empty.




Look at the lower left corner that shows server count (I choose empty servers deliberately). This is what I'm talking about when I say I'm not seeing the same amount of nearly full server's that I once saw just a few weeks ago.


WHERE did you get that server browser? i dont have the steam copy ea download manager version. do i need to download a patch?

Use the updater. Should do it automatically if you launch BC2 from the Games folder.

Played some last night on a Thailand server with Marineborn, he has been crying about how bad his connection is to the US and has thrown out a few challenges to try playing half way around the world, and I finally bit. Connection seemed great, had a 16/5 a 10/2 and a few other amazing rounds, think my worst round was a 2.0 KDR, love this game, playing with people half way around the world and not lagging at all.

The netcode really works well to make high ping playing possible :D if only they could fix the hit detection!

I'm tired of hearing my UMP bullet rock someone in the head (that nice satisfying "ping!") when they are standing still looking the other direction only to have them turn around and take me down to half health before a kill shot registers. >.<

SO.... after picking up a 5970 I've been testing BC2 fairly extensively and no matter what I do I cannot get this game to run higher than 60% usage on each GPU. I even clocked my CPU over 4Ghz and it made little to no difference. I'm running DX11 4xAA 8xAF everything on High (med audio to alleviate CPU stress) and HBAO on. An average run in a 32 player server is about 45, 110, 75 (min, max, avg) but I cannot get the GPU usage any higher...

So for anyone else running crossfire 5000 series or a 5970, please let me know which drivers and catalyst application profiles you're using.

Maybe I'm crazy but I was hoping to average 90fps all maxed out with this card.

-1Kurgan1- I was waiting on you GPU usage numbers as well.... hint hint

100 bucks for BC2? Did I read that right?

yes maybe more i expose it sell 100$ for 3 copys for me but real price is 120$ for one copy

you can get legit keys off ebay for under $30. bought three for me, my friend and his cousin, and they all work perfect :)

yeah we did that with modern warfare 2... and all the keys got shut down, no questions asked. game deleted itself from steam.

thanx i was think about that and i was want to ask same thing, thanx my friend seems i keep this idea away

That time might work for me.



There is Euro servers that you should get decent ping to, France and Germany both have servers, as does UK, and maybe some other locations over there.

Germany that's great news, most our ISP from Germany and that why ARMA2 play well, thanx mate

i saw shev selling his copy of BC2 for $30 if anyone is interested.


sure i im but how can deliver to me, i can deliver the money cuz there is too many western union offices here, we have also DHL, FEDEX and UPS world wide, also i can make VISA card or MASTER card but i don't know if it's global work or not, so the main problem is i didn't know how shipping is cuz i never try and have no idea how it's work, i will be very grateful to you my friend for any hint can help me shipping cuz that's what i always dream about

I forgot to check, but last time I did fraps my session (on my old windows with low performance) I had 80fps as my average, so thats not a good sign that your seeing 75, I also had twice as much AA and AF and max audio.

So which drivers are you using and with which crossfire profiles?

@ 2560x1600 8xAA 16xAF, I get usual 80%+ per card(except for snow maps, that one rush one that wasn't in the demo is @ 99% almost all the time), and dips up and down depending on what I'm looking at. Using the official 10.4 driver, and the Apr07 Profiles. Dual 5870 1GB.

@ 5870x1080, and 2xaa and 16xAF, I get 99% with very few dips below that.

Ok, I must be doing something wrong then. Ill try purging CCC from the registry and some other stuff. The odd thing is that all my benchmarks are scoring where they should. FML

It looks like your GPU load is varying by resolution.. since im only at 1920x1080 I shouldnt expect 99% usage I suppose.

Yeah, resolution is definately a big part of it. It's actually good timing for you to ask, as I've been doing TONNES of games testing with these cards investigating performance differences with the new bios I got from XFX. Unless I'm running eyefinity or high AA, 2 cards pretty much destroys everything out there.

Are you running with the newest AMD X6?

Yep, and its sexy.

So which drivers are you using and with which crossfire profiles?

I am using Cat 10.4 officials, and I havent even tried any profiles yet, and wasn't using them before when I had 80fps average.

Ok, I must be doing something wrong then. Ill try purging CCC from the registry and some other stuff. The odd thing is that all my benchmarks are scoring where they should. FML

It looks like your GPU load is varying by resolution.. since im only at 1920x1080 I shouldnt expect 99% usage I suppose.

Maybe its time for a new windows, I didn't want to, but I finally took the plunge and I don't regret it at all.
