yeah thats a shame - the maps are big enough to support more players too. anyhoo - less people means that team work is more critical & generally gunfights are more intense unless theres one noob running around with an LMG that in reality needs at least a team of 2-3 to operate then it could be a pretty short fight for you as they are grosely overpowerd.

I find that the LMG's are generally overpowered even at ranges. For instance, the M60 with the red dot (not the 4x scope!) on it is amazing, like I can hit snipers across the map. That combined with the "magnum rounds" perk, and I can take down the whole enemy force, and when I run out of ammo, I use the "lolvolver" which is a 2 hit kill, and then when I run out of that I knife people.

Sadly, the knife is my best weapon. It even says so...

I love this. It is like EA is designing outages to make sure you guys don't leave me behind while I am at work pretending to help people while I troll the forums.

No Deal...

I got the software installed on Server 2008...but it won't run. I check the event logs, it says application fault. Not too sure what to do. I'm not sure if I should rebuild the machine with Windows 7....

Any ideas?

why would you want to play games on a server 2008 machine anyway?

I'm thinking it is the drivers. I would go grab the 10.3 betas, but I saw a note on the thread over on Guru3d.com that people with 4 series have been reporting problems with them.

I'm kind of wondering if it may be causing a high cpu load too. I'm seeing a 75%+ load on my i7 clocked to 3.33Ghz with HT turned off to get rid of some stutter.

Perfectly smooth, great game glad I bought it!
i just saw someone struggling on low with a 9800GT. It may well be a combination of things.

disabling AI disables crossfire.

OK i'm gonna be a buzzed whiny little bitch here. I have never been in a clan and never did team speak. I love this game, but the two new things I'm trying to get into here suck so far with this. Maybe because I have came into the game with such high expectations and wanted to be part of all that I have never done. But damn it I'm pissed. It won't even let me on to TPU's server now, FUCK !
Yes I cursed my Brothers !

Ok for those having troubles looking for a server - I just wanted to put an input on how I resolved the issue, well mine at least.

- Turned off my firewall (Windows Firewall especially)
- And on filters only have a cross on 'NOT EMPTY'
- Then press 'FULL REFRESH'
- Cancel the 'Waiting for Data' after waiting 10-20 seconds
- Then on the Server Browser box click 'PING' once and only ONCE until the arrow is facing down
- Wait for servers to pop up (They will don't worry)
- Then click ping again, let it search until the lowest pings are on the top of the list even if you have to press ping again two more times.

I'm not sure if this will help everyone who is having connection issue but it sure has helped me.

Has anyone been able to use the M1 Garand? I am a lvl 5 veteran and have unlocked it, but cant use it on any servers including easy rhino's. Apparently i am not the only one with this issue. I think it may have something to do with the soldier stats page also being unavailable on the bad company 2 website.
