Had a blast last night with Richy, TGKB and PP. Squad gameplay at its best! Just sucks that it went from 6 to 4 though.

From 6-4 what exactly?

[deceiver]

Oh, the number of ppl in a squad, used to be 6 in BF2 if I remember correctly. Now it's down to 4. 4 seems to be the magic number these days for coop =P.

Ohhh now I gotcha At least Vent helps so we can hear each other. It wouldnt be so bad if in game people could voicecomm to the whole team on top of the squad channel. Only really being able to coordinate with a 4 man squad can lead to some anemic maneuvers when you are trying to make a plan to sweep across two enemy controlled points. For now well just have to use vent to get quick squad changes for closer spawns.

[Dr. Crawford]

one day i will be on the battlefield with you guys.

im going to buy the game in a few days, and hope to allah i can sort out the connection issues

[deceiver]

What connection issues are you having?

[Dr. Crawford]

i get rubberbanding like you wouldn't believe. faceman doubted it was as bad as i said it was until he joined a game with me and watched me get thrown around like a hooker's vagina

i get no lag in other games. in CS:S my ping is usually 5. BF2 runs perfectly.

i disabled firewall, nothing. i forwarded my ports, nothing. there is nothing conceivably blocking this game from connection, but it is. it seems like the inbound connection of the game is fine, because I can watch people run up to me and knife me in the face while im getting mangled by the lag. its definitely not my CPU struggling because i did have a moment of clarity on one server and it ran fine. its definitely connection wise.

i made a post on EA's forums about it and got no response. I saw that other people were having the same problem but again, they never figured it out either

If I had more time and more money, I would have bought this game just to play with the community. Fear of stuff like the above described and just general "wont run well on my lappy" fears keep me from taking the plunge.

You would have a killer ping though, considering how far you are from the server.

[Jibba-Jabba]

Is it not Hardcore? Why not?

[The Good King Bad]

Server is currently set to Hardcore with Rush Maps, might switch it over to the conquest playlist in an hour or two

True story.

[deceiver]

Could you have a mix of Rush and Conquest maps?

[RichyCunningham]

The problem is that you can only have one mode at a time if I understood TGKB correctly.

[Fenris Wolf]

I'm confident that we will be able to mix it up with different modes in the near future.

What I'm looking forward to now is if we can find a way to put hardcore damage with spotting and shit at the same time. Server would be tits at that point.

[Liebgott]

can't find it!! :(

Agreed.

[The Good King Bad]

Server side updates were released and they are currently being installed, going to restart the server and it should be good to go by 9:15pm Eastern.

You're retarded.

That was 5 years ago when we were all using Teamspeak but you pulled your usually "EVERYONE COME USE THIS INSTEAD" act and we've been using Ventrilo for months. We've been in the same channel a ton of times together too. I have no idea how you are in college.

[jow]

>implying college kids aren't retarded.

OH GOD I MISPLACED A POST.

Yeah vent was superior to teamspeak back then too. I know we've been on vent together, I just think it's funny that you used to give me so much shit for saying vent was better than TS but now you see the light.

All I can see is the guy in your sig saying that.

[Das-W00t]

All I can see is the guy in your sig saying that.

Also, I've been meaning to say something about that. 4MB sig? Really?

[Maxey]

And probably hotlinking it too.

sog is the epitome of lame.

[jow]

great sig, would rep again.

[The Good King Bad]

Server back up and currently running Squad Rush, if we get some more TMHers Ill switch it over to Squad Deathmatch.

[Verhaden]

Any way I can add the server as a Favorite by editing an *.ini file? Getting sick of seeing either the spinning circle for 20 minutes or the "could not connect" notice. I'll be happy when the server browser gets its kinks worked out.

[Fenris Wolf]

This is what's in my GameSettings.ini right after FavoriteGames=


2616125523,70036572-3ae9-4347-9df0-d2b4c7dccd01,[TMH]TheMessHall.net - Hardcore Mixed BC2 Server

No idea if those numbers are specific to my machine and configuration though, so if anyone who also has it favorited can post theirs, that'd be nice.

Also, you can use the old trick of adding [TMH] on the RecentGames line. It should automatically filter and plop it on there for you.

[PrivateParts]

what folder is the ini in?

[The Good King Bad]

My Documents/BFBC2 folder

[PrivateParts]

RecentGames=2616125523,70036572-3ae9-4347-9df0-d2b4c7dccd01,[TMH]TheMessHall.net - Hardcore Mixed BC2 Server;



2616125523,70036572-3ae9-4347-9df0-d2b4c7dccd01, yours


So in the ini put it here:

GstPersistence]
FavoriteGamesConnectDate=Empty
ClanTag=TMH
FavoriteGamesConnectCount=Empty
FavoriteGames=2616125523,70036572-3ae9-4347-9df0-d2b4c7dccd01,[TMH] TheMessHall;
RecentGames=2616125523,70036572-3ae9-4347-9df0-d2b4c7dccd01,[TMH]TheMessHall.net - Hardcore Mixed BC2 Server;






Looks the same. Should work then.


edit: also, i should be able to bring the server back up if it goes down now.

[Liebgott]

servers down again.....

[Face]

For now on we should just throw it in the chat box, no need to mention it here over and over.

[Liebgott]

true, but why does it drop so often?

[Face]

It was released only a few days ago, give it time.

I just spoke to PP. He said the server is up and it has a new name: TMH]TheMessHall.net - BC2 Server NYC. If that's not the issue, maybe it's on your end.

[SwedeIndeed]

it worked for me 5 mins ago

[PrivateParts]

EA and their login are acting up right now.

Some cant connect to their account, though the server is up.

[Liebgott]

have we seen an uptick in visitors here since the server came up?

[jow]

Fuckkkk.

I bought this today with trade in credit. Lol broke.

It better run on my FUCKING laptop or I'll commit hara-kiri.

[wickit]

make this your last supper my freind

[Verhaden]

Fenris, that did the trick. My computer's back online and things are running great.

That 4x scope you can get as a medic is addictive.

[Steffmeister]

If you ever see a guy named "Flying Dane" thats probably me playing on my little brother's account.

[deceiver]

IMA PLAY TONIGHT. Been trying to avoid playing since sunday so I could get work done. Just gotta do one other texture, and should be good to play a bit tonight.

[deceiver]

Is there a site somewhere where we could see the status of the server and such, how many players, etc? I tried game-monitor.com, but no dice.

The server will be down until we can find a more reliable host.
