Last 3 or 4 days every server I have joined has been lop sided as well Zim. I counted 7 servers in a row that I joined 1 day that when I entered my team had 0 flags, just got sick of that. Server lists are dwindling, BF3 is soon.

Now that I've seen the epicness of what's to come I somehow can't bring myself to play BFBC2 anymore >.<, maybe if the hit reg, mechanics etc. were to be the same or similar then I'd take the time to practice.. tis a bad habit of mine. I am also experiencing the same thing where you join a conquest game and find out either your team or the opposite is being base camped.

Add another server to the "get fucked" list. Just got kicked from DOM Destruction of Militants for having too good of a game. I hate that. I'm just not that good. If your server can't handle the likes of me, that says mountains about you minuscule manhood.

Yeah, I remember when I ran my own server, if I seen someone owning I looked up their lifetime stats, compared, looked at their history graph, maybe let them play 1 more round. I actually made a real decision rather than just raging and booting people who owned me.

Yeah I'll never ever have that problem :roll: They may kick me for sucking so bad though !
The funny thing is I always play engineer and it is my worst K/D class by far. I just like the class and if I PLAY I'm gonna play the class I like :D
I'm kind of glad BF 3 is mixing the classes and abilities up a bit. Just to get a new feel. As much as I love BFBC2 I'm ready for something new.

I must say, the performance I gained in BC2 by adding a second 5870 is well worth the cost and headache of adding the second card. Man, I thought it ran well before - what an eye opener. The only complaint I have is that I get an occasional black screen flicker, but only on Harvest Day. Unfortunately, that is my favorite map!

When did you go crossfire ? I have thought about it, but I really don't want to reformat again after getting a new board. I have just put together 4 machines in the last month and kind of tired of the Operating system end of it and loading all the software for them and updates. Gets old when I could be doing fun things on the computer instead. Plus Football is here :)I may settle for a 6970 or a GTX 570. First I want to see how the 6870 does with BF3 and then figure it out.

Yeah the black flicker drives me freaking nuts. It's really common on Heavy Metal too. Thankfully it doesn't last long and usually goes away as suddenly as it appeared.

What do you specifically notice about how it runs now? I definitely noticed a HUGE min fps gain going from dual core to quad especially with lots of smoke and explosions in view. Noticed much less diff with the jump from single 5850 to 6850 crossfire. Though I run at 8x AA now and think I used 4x before. Again, not much noticeable IQ diff with that, however.

Adding a second card would not require a reformat, boise. Actually, doesn't require anything. Cat drivers will see it on first boot and enable Crossfire for you. That's it. Yeah though you may as well just wait for right now.

Things are much more fluid, and no more drop in frame rates during intense explosions. I never minded the brief lag during explosions, kind of simulated shell shock. Also, it's not quite as drastic, but it's damn near the "crisp graphics" feeling I got after updating to 10.12, or 11.2 or whichever one seemed to make things look unexplainabley better. I'm 85% sure my thinking is not just placebo, although I haven't taken the time to run FRAPS.

the black flicker happends to all multiple GPU setups (its part of the game) the only way to disable the black flicker is to go into your settings ini file and disable bloom, that fixes the issue.

Unfortunately for some reason that also disables the little end game fmv sequence that happends after you win or lose a game, but IMO its not much of a loss so long as you can SEE properly while the game is still in play.

Interesting, first I've heard of bloom affecting it. Maybe will give that a shot. I've been lucky so far that it hasn't happened in the heat of battle but eventually I'm gonna get screwed and extremely pissed. At this point, really just hoping not an issue in Frostbyte 2.0.

Yeah Alex that's what I figured you'd say as the min fps thing is definitely the most noticeable and measurable but I'm surprised you didn't get this earlier, like when you went 2600K perhaps (though I'm not sure what your prior CPU was...) And FRAPS wouldn't really provide helpful info much unless you had been running it all along or knew what FPS you generally got with one card.

Mine would definitely dip in the 20s and get super choppy with smoke (esp when zoomed in too say as tank gunner) with an e8400 at 4.0 and a single 5850. 1920x1200 with AA.

Or use 11.5's with the latest CAP. It's the driver that resolves the issue not the CAP as you only need the latest CAP. All previous CAP's are included with the latest CAP, hence why AMD instructs to uninstall old CAP's before installing new.

I'm excited to give that a shot

Yah, I did a bunch of FRAPping (careful not to misread) to help a guy that started a thread awhile back wondering if his Phenom II 940 would pair well with a 5870. That was my old chip, running at 3.6 it pushed my single 5870 very well. I can't find the old thread, but I'm sure my frames never dropped below 35, with max around 80something.

you mean internet issues ??

yes, the time it takes your computer to ping the server basically, not your download speed.

i don't know that it's causing it, just that is what he meant.
170-180 is higher than i'd like, but it may not be the cause.

well there will be a lot of similarities (vehicles, squad play, loadouts, etc) but bf3 is really a more wide open battlefield compared to bfbc2 maps.

that being said, if you are good at shooting and can think on your feet about objectives (imo what's necessary to be good at bc2), that will also make you good in bf3.
