Hiya Eelkon :)

I do play BF2 and 2142 actually, I also run my own 'dedicated' servers for the games :D

Check out my BF 2 video here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw1w_4Q3JD0), this was done using Fraps ;)

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by 'elchader', is this a multiplayer-type thing like X-Fire?  I only use the in-game browser, but I can setup my server if you want, passworded if necessary ;)

Let me know (and anyone else who wants to join us) :D

Regards.

DJM.

Post by: [RWP]DJM on August 07, 2007, 12:04:10
As you can see, we were going way off-topic, so I split the topic from the deviation point ;)

Anyway, back to New subject :D  I am quite happy to setup my server/s anytime.  The unlocks situation may need further looking into:

I can grant a 'Tier-1' unlock ability for ALL players on BF 2142, but BF 2 will only allow me a 'Yes' or 'No' answer to allowing global unlocks.  Allowing global unlocks when some players may not have a great choice of unlocked abilities/weapons, may be unfair.

We will have to work this out ;)

Regards.

DJM.

99 rounds :o :o :o

I think that is asking a lot, 1 map and 99 rounds.  I don't know about anyone else, but I would get extremely bored, extremely quickly with that setup ::)

99 rounds is fine by me, i hate the long loading times of maps and usualy when i play a certain map i want to play it a long time.

But with unlocks turned on

I'm member of the =[WoW]= (Warriors of the World) clan, and love to play BF2 and DCon. Don't like 2142 really.
Offcourse we have our own dedicated DCon-server and clan-forum.

Allowing global unlocks when some players may not have a great choice of unlocked abilities/weapons, may be unfair.

It's a war simulation, General DJM. War is inherently unfair. It's about cunning, guile, damned good luck. Who needs great weapons. Just fists, and a slingshot and I'll fight you all. On the beaches, in the street and I will NEVER surrender.

As for Churchill, I think we can learn from him. Not just as a war leader, but a brave bloke with a great deal of intelligence, humour and political wisdom. Although he WAS voted the greatest Britain... I checked my passport shows me as British, so I've demanded a recount...

I don't use unlocks anyway, check my stats ;)

I have found that when a ranking and unlocks element is introduced into a supposedly 'team' game, the team aspect flies right out of the window.

I have been TK'ed on many occasions by players trying to increase their stats, my Brother actually spotted one killing me just so he could get my Heli....tk'er is a Team-Killer for those who don't know (someone on the same team who kills YOU, instead of the enemy).

If you also have a look at my scores on my BF 2 stats, I have a low accuracy and combat score total.  My Teamwork score is double my Combat score ;)

Why is this?

I am a team player and get caught in the thick of the action, resupplying, reviving etc.  In this situation, getting shot is inevitable, but I play my part as a 'Team Member', not as someone out to get the next 'rank' or 'unlock' :D

Regards.

I agree he was a great Briton (sic) :P

As for the recount......hmm.......not sure that would go down too well with the populace :P

I've slightly altered the topic title on this post as some of us also play Battlefield 2142 ;)

As an extra point, I am unable to host a server for any of these games at the moment, I am having trouble with my ISP.  Average peak (6-11pm UK time) rate is 40kb/sec on an 8mb connection, so I am currently 'going to town' on them.

I've also added the Director of the company as a Bcc (Blind-Carbon-Copy) on my emails to the company lol.......with any luck he will get annoyed and cancel my contract, then I will choose a better provider ;)

I actually tried the demo of ArmA, I didn't like it to be honest.  I thought the inertia on the character was way too extreme.  The controls also seemed a little 'twitchy' ::)

Maybe it's just me though ;)

DJM.
Title: Re: Battlefield 2
Post by: Captain Davies on August 10, 2007, 14:56:34
The inertia is meant to portray the fact that real soldiers don't run around with their weapon permanently raised pointing ahead of them like a new nose.

Plus the demo was horribly buggy.  Even more so than the unpatched base game.  The latest round of patches have improved the game greatly and missions triggers no longer fail infuriatingly.  There's even an EP on it''s way.

Maybe it's just me, but I was left with the feeling, 'Is this how a duck would walk, if it were carrying a gun'......waddle over here, waddle over there, shoot that other waddling person :P

Hmm, I have no problems with it but I suppose the important thing is not to use the crosshairs or aim-dot-thingy as an indication of where you're going.  Which is usually the natural thing to do with other games.

Hiya everyone :)

I have a proposition for those of you who own Battlefield 2142 ;)

As some of you may know, I am currently in the process of making a movie for Battlefield 2142, but I need some more battle footage, so........

I would like to run a server in the next few days and invite some of you guys to take part in that movie, with a mention in the end credits of course :D

It will be Titan Mode initially, with the possibility of Assault Lines being included also ;)

Anyone interested, please let me know :)

It will be passworded, but that is only to keep the game limited to Ship Sim members and so I know who to include in the credits ;)

I am having issues with my internet connection at the moment and you guys may want to try the server out for lag etc.

It will be a public server, so it may turn into 'newbie city', but you can always leave the server after testing, it's not ranked after all ;)

I will start the server at 7pm UK time ;D

I won't be playing myself, but I will leave it running for 1-2 hours ;)

Why no Battlefield 2 DJM? ???

Greetz,

Eelkon

I can run BF 2 later in the week if anyone wants me to ;)

I forgot to mention too, PunkBuster isn't enabled on 2142.  For some strange reason, Evenbalance haven't brought the Server & Client files up to the same version ::)

Regards.

DJM.
