March 19, 200619 yr Sorry guys, BF2 is just straight broken, I can't play like this anymore. Even when pings are below 100 there is severe banding and warping. Every server, no matter what. I have tried every tip from you guys, some from other forums, EA refuses to comment on this lag which is a known problem for a number 1.21 players, and I just generally can't deal with the frustration anymore. It was nice playing with you guys, especially Gator who put up with my lack of Vent etiquette without muting me Im not quitting the clan, just saying I won't be playing very often until some sort of fix emerges.
March 19, 200619 yr Hey Def, sorry to hear about your problem. Hope it gets resolved quick and see you on the battle front soon.
March 19, 200619 yr I don't care if EA ever gets their S@@@ together, they are the biggest pile!!! Ever since the 1.21 patch came out I am regularly getting horrible lags and for damn sure it isn't me! They've completely wasted a good game. They can kiss my @@@ because they're never getting another dime from me. Valve/Steam here I come. How do you really feel?

March 19, 200619 yr Author hmmm... Im going to try calling EA, Im sure one of their techs might be understanding and know something we dont. After all, Ill bet they are gamers just like us.

March 20, 200619 yr Sorry Defcon to read about that and for your frustration. But the same things happen to me too and when I formated and reinstalled, all run good now: perhaps some "spyware" and "malware" slowed down my computer... Since the last format in October, it run good and when I got some lags yet, it's the provider fault! Egidio.
March 21, 200619 yr They shouldnt release a game, thats not ready. I spend to much time to patch and patch and patch and patch..
March 21, 200619 yr thanks to all for their negative and positive feedback. as said before, upgrading your pc and/or tweeking it may or may not help ... tigerhawk and i have done lots of testing with our below bf2 req' specs ... and we appreciate seeing results and pc details from all of you ... it is clear that that the real problem is internet ping more then having questionable hardware ... because our lame under bf2 specs hardware has performed without lag when in server of around 70 ping and all players in there also showed similar pings to us ... so your probs may be not your pc but your ping to a server and it's players ... it's a good game, i questioned them directly last summer ... the response was the game was pressured to come out as soon as possible so it was not possible to take many more days or months to include options of less resolution and map details then offered ... despite it putting heavy demands on internet bandwidth ... they tried to answer public demands for team voice and more team help stuff from complaints of BVF... My guess is they did good job considering being rushed by sponsering companies to get it out asap, before another company came out with something that might reduce their sales ... BIG MISTAKE in my opinion because taking more time to allow lower res and detail settings in my opinion would have allowed mega more people to play it without the frustrations of net lag and wasted hardware upgrade costs . I repeat it is great game. But to include all of "we the people", it needs allowance for less details resulting in less pc and net needs.
