SpacePirateNeko Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 A little blue bird told me that the demo will be released noon today or tomorrow Quote
bsu legato Posted June 10, 2005 Author Posted June 10, 2005 If your bird is right, we'll have to have a MW match this weekend. The demo supports up to 16 players, and without taking a count of the replies to this thread I think that'll work for everyone here. Quote
Mechafan Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 A little blue bird told me that the demo will be released noon today or tomorrow Time to start looking for the Demo. Cool! Quote

Shmitty Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 All the servers are hell of busy, so it'll probably take a while to get into one for a download. Quote
SpacePirateNeko Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 I think the gamespot servers exploded =) If anyone is able to catch this thing can you post it up sopmewhere? its a pretty hefty file Quote
Shmitty Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 I refreshed the gamespot link page and the link to Download.com was gone. I guess one of theirs couldn't handle the traffic or something. Quote
SpacePirateNeko Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 mod-tastic! by the way WHEN i can finally downlod the demo my name on it will be Shadowplay which i use for every online game Quote
Shmitty Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 (edited) I managed to start a download, I'll see if i can't get my friend to host the file on his site. When it finishes... P.S. my tag is Yushiro, generally for every game I play online. Edited June 10, 2005 by Shmitty Quote
UN Spacy Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 I'm slowly DL'ing the file now. Hopefully my slow as computer will be able to handle it. Quote

Kin Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 this link I've tried a couple of times with this link and I'm currently downloading at 80kbps . Make sure u use a download program cause normal download is unreliable. Quote
Kin Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) Even better! A list of all download servers Downloading at 320kbps And just 30mins left Edited June 11, 2005 by Kin Quote
Shmitty Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) I started playing the demo, and all I can say is: "holy crap!" First of all, its effing gorgeous. Screenshots just don't do it justice. And the commander and squad lead actions are really cool and inventive. When you get "killed" the first two or three times (I can't remember), you can call a medic and they'll fix you up and get you back to fighting, unless you like fall off a cliff or something. I'd say more, but now I'm going to go play it again. Edit, there are actually times where you're jsut seriously injured, and when you're killed. That's what decides if you can get back to fighting or not. Edited June 11, 2005 by Shmitty Quote
bsu legato Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 I'll be messing around with it online for a good portion of the night. If anybody wants to join in, look for the "Macross World" server. If I decide to password it, the password will be "valkyrie." Quote

Kin Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I'm very pleased! Nice job they have done. With my 1600xp and 512mb ram and a radeon 9600 pro im suprised this game runs even faster and better than the battlefield vietnam engine. The soundeffects really rock! And the enviroment is so beautifull! SNIPAHHEAVEN I tried to set it all high but founf out my harddisk is swapping near death for minutes and on every movement I make. I guess for high settings you have to have atleast 1GB of RAM. (same problem with the buggy game "Boiling point") Quote
bsu legato Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 It looks like I can only create a local LAN game. There's a button on the multiplayer menu that says "Rent Server" that makes me think you can't just create your own 'net game willy nilly. Anybody else have any luck? Quote
UN Spacy Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 GREAT. I just finished installing BF2 only to find out my video card SUCKS. I don't even have a CPU powerful enough to run the minimum requirements. Woe is me. Quote
Goshawk Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I tryed to DL from thier site like 4 times and I keep getting damaged files, so I hit torrent, maybe I will get lucky on this download. grrrrrr Quote

bsu legato Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 So whats everyone's impressions so far? I'm enjoying this game far more than I even expected to. The game seems to run just fine on the default graphic settings, so I'm going to mess around with them and increase them incrementally. Oh, and I unsurprisingly suck at flying the choppers. Quote
Kin Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 btw I can't create an account. Nothing is happening after I had confirmed. Kept seeing "connecting" but there's no traffic. Quote
Goshawk Posted June 12, 2005 Posted June 12, 2005 thats the same problem a friend I work with has. Quote
ComicKaze Posted June 12, 2005 Posted June 12, 2005 BF2 is gonna be sniper galore! Hurray! makes me think back of Delta Force 2, large maps and 1000m+ snipertargets. Except that everytime you snipe...it zooms out while you reload the chamber LOL! You need to reaquire your targets! Quote

I had 6 kills with that m24 first timer:D Holding down the leftmousebutton to confirm hit. btw. it seems that the creat account option under multiplayer doesnt work. Try via "manage accounts", it's the same but it works! Edited June 12, 2005 by Kin Quote
