Actually, you can get a program that plays games off one computer and displays and gets controlled by/on another computer. It's all done over a network. My friend uses this to play FEAR combat with me on his Asus EEE. I forget the name of it though but I'll ask my friend later.

What he is talking about, I think, is something Google and some other companies already are experimenting with. Essentially the computer and all the necessary hardware is located offsite. The user would have what is basically a USB hub on steroids that connects to all the IO devices like monitor, mouse, keyboard etc.

This can work with productivity applications and the like to some extent now. Games or anything that needs rapid and precise controls will take a kind of uber network we currently don't have though. The additional delay that it would take to move the information from keypress to off site CPU back to Monitor would compound to make things unplayable currently.

Hahaha, no one figured we would ever have hard drives bigger than 512 mb, and ever need more RAM than 2 mb.

omg - I'd better upgrade :yay:

Re: If BF2 and COD4 had intercourse...

If these two games were to breed I'd hope to god it was bf2 gameplay and COD4 graphics and not the other way around. The gameplay of cod4 sucks.

Re: If BF2 and COD4 had intercourse...

a BF2 and COD4 game of collabaration?
IMO, waste of time...
they already nerfed the M203 in BF2 patch 1.41...
CoD4 M203, another nerf weapon...
and BF:BC, DICE uber nerfed the M203...

conclusion...JUST BRING OUT BF3 with Frostbite engine and Mirror's Edge Camerage...
or..revert BF2 patch 1.5 to 1.1 with 1.1 original M203 splash damage and original M134 Minigun

The original blackhawk would rekindle my interest in maps like Shonghua, Mashtur and Gulf.

BF2 + CoD4 = Far Cry 2?

Doubt it but it would be nice, FC2 seems to have slower gameplay like BF2 but with the nice graphics.

Far Cry 2 has vehicles, just no aircraft
FC2 has no health bar like in CoD4
FC2 has a mode similar to conquest
In FC2 you can revive team mates

Thoughts?

Not at all. Far cry 2 has nothing compared to BF2. Are there squads and commanders in FC2? 32vs32? Weapon classes? ammo/medic bags? Commo rose (which is actually a big thing. It helps quite a bit). In-game voice chat as good as BF2's? Does it have as many vehicles, and weapons as BF2? Aircraft, to me, is a big part of BF2 and a reason why I love it so much since almost no other game has implemented it better than BF2. I can think of more reasons but I just woke up so I'm still tired

I'm not saying FC2 is going to be bad, but it won't be able to be compared to BF2. I'd say the only other game that could be compared to it would be Frontlines: Fuel of war, but even that game is far off from BF2.

Yeah thats why so many people are playing it...

I agree COD4 is a much smaller game, as in play area. Therefore its more deathmatch. But its physics and netcode, and the feel of how the infantry combat plays, are why people like it. People love the weapons and bullet penetration in COD4, the weapons feel realistically powerful. And the overall pace, you dont feel like you have bricks on your feet. Plus gameplay in COD4 depends heavily on which gamemode you're playing.

But most importantly the netcode is awesome, no delay, no huge leading targets, no shots passing through stuff. :yay:

Re: If BF2 and COD4 had intercourse...

Euro Noob got it exactly right about why most people love cod4, especially me. i got so sick of battlefield 2. every new patch that came out would break something or "fix" something that wasn't broken. the m1a2 had a completely screwed up hit box after patch 1.12 or something. it wasn't fixed until 5 patches later. wtf dice! i loved this game when it was released, but every new patch made me lose even more interest in the game until i eventually just hated it completely. i love the concept, but hate the game.

cod4 was like a huge awakening for me. it was like finally seeing the light. it was like some super hot chick with double ds offering her chest to me and allowing me to motorboat whenever, where ever, and for how ever long i want for nothing in return :yay:. that is how it felt for me going from bf2 to cod4. sure i miss the tanks, the helicopters, and jets but the infantry combat in cod4 is just so damn awesome. i think i can live without all that for another year or two. hell! even though the knifing in cod4 has been nerfed a few times it's still light-years ahead of battlefield 2 and way more satisfying.

if bf3 is in development or ever will be, i want it to have the same feel for infantry combat as cod4 and a physics engine that isn't retarded, allowing vehicles to slide down even the slightest incline and kill me because i just happen to be close enough while repairing it... i want objects in the game that use physics to act like they would in real life or at least as close as possible. also, as said by someone before, destructible environments with an option server side to turn it off.
