Long Server load

[NadeMaster]

I have done a lot with my game recently and reinstalled it, now when i log in it goes and starts a match on its own. besides that once i get to the server list it is going very very slow. Now i just had this working 2 days ago with no problems so any ideas?

Re: Long Server load

im guessing ur clicking on "Play BF2 Online Now" shortcut. that is the very evil shortcut that is pretty much useless....delete that shortcut and just use the "Play Bf2" shortcut.

k and i fixed the internet issue. Thanks Zucko for your problem resolution back in your thread.

EDIT: Take that back, it worked once but then it started going slow when i reloaded.

Bump/information

For the record i used to have this game working with no problem before my computer crashed.

try scanning for virus's, spyware, rootkits etc, defrag and check hdd for errors...if u have anything norton get rid, check firewalls etc...

Re: Long Server load

ya i am using the bf2 icon and not the online one. i originally had my network briddged when i first installed it, so i rebridged it and then it worked. Later i refresehed the list and it went kerplunk.
