BF2 1.2 Graphics

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics

You all need better gfx cards, not just for BF2, but it will benefit if you buy other games which are comming out that require a good gfx card.

I only get bad laggy trippiness on maps like Daquing Oilfields, or Fu she pass, and other big maps, im fine on Sharqi or Karkand, its my RAM I need to upgrade from 1GB to 2GB.

Why can't you guys get it through your heads... this is not a problem with our videos cards, it is a compatibility issue. Besides,some of us don't have $100-$300 to spend on a new video card, when we already meet the minimum requirements for running Battlefield 2. As a matter of fact, Battlefield 2 ran pretty well on my system before this patch, and I've seen other users here with really good systems, and they are having this same problem.

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics

My birthday is coming up, and I'm going to get an X800XL, hopefully, but this is still unacceptable. Sure, EA could use the excuse that the cards that are having problems with 1.2 aren't "supported" by them, but if they actually practiced some sort of business ethical code they would make sure their game worked for as many people as possible.

Even though I think of EA as a mostly cold-hearted, greedy Micro$oft-ish entity, I actually do think they would make some kind of hotfix for people with this problem, depending on just how big the problem is. I don't think they intended to or knew they would destroy the ability for a large part of the community with ATI 9100 and 9200 cards to play BF2.

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics

DO NOT GO OUT AND BUY NEW RAM OR VIDEO CARDS AT THIS POINT

I'm really unhappy with the laggy Framerates I'm getting with 1.2 and I have pretty solid hardware.

I have a P4 3.4, 2 gigs of ram, a X800XT PE (Sapphire) and when BF2 came out I could run everything on high(cept textures=medium) with 6x AA at 1280x1024 and the framerates were great. With every patch I've had to sacrifice something and at this point, even on medium settings at 1280x1024 with 2x AA the framerates will not stay consistent.

The game will play fine for a few moments then Framerates will drop to the 10-15 range for a brief period, mabye 10 seconds, then come back.

I'm going to do some more testing tonight on Low settings and see if I can get the framerates to stay solid and not drop down, then I guess I'll start upping the setting one by one, but I only have so much patience.... Hate the fact that when you adjust settings it takes 5+ min to see how it affects the game.

Nah, it's not strange. Don't you remember those little NVidia inserts in your BF2 case when you bought it? I'll bet any amount of money that NVidia is sponsering BF2 to be as compatible with their cards as possible, and either EA is neglecting ATI users or they are purposely trying to make NVidia more appealing.

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics

When you change the graphical settings BF2 attempts to optimize the shaders used in the game for the best performance on your particular hardware. These optimized files are stored in your \Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache\ directory. If you've changed your settings several times, I recommend you finalize your changes, close BF2, go to the above directory and delete everything under the \cache\ directory. The next time you start the game and play single or multiplayer, your shaders will be optimized again. Close BF2 one more time, defragment your hard drive, and now things should be much smoother and load much faster the next time you go to play BF2

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics


Damn it, i also got graphical issues since the 1.2 patch.

My Hud is flickering during gameplay and sometimes there are green artefacts, that often appear for a very short but disturbing time.

Im running on a 9800pro. A bit old card, however, everything was fine before the patch, i really hate EA.

Re: BF2 1.2 Graphics

after the patch the game runs even better for me i am able to turn my settings up even further with no loss in framerate i never drop below 35FPS now.
