Re: For People who Hate BF2 NOW
Hate is strong...but I am getting really close to leaving the game out of dissapointment and frustration.
I mean really....I am not prone to trolling forums and posting gripes or interested in political haggling but....Christ....EA/DICE have released some of the most Gawd awful patches and tweaks to this game, not to mention not following through with their initial "features" advertised with the game such as "fully desructable environments" (OK the red barrels blow up and some wood barriers break if you run through them with vehicle but come on). Most doors cant be opened, buildings that cant be used (imagine having access to even a small number of the buildings in say the Karkand map-the balconies, roof tops), lack of imagination in game types is simply embarrassing.
Conquest.
(sound effect of wind blowing and tumble weeds through desert)
In fact I took an image to use for my sig from a promo...notice the binoculars....ever see any in game?
Alright....while I'm at it....WTF!!! Is all the bloody, G'D, F'n screen clutter about!??
My screen is like a psychedelic circus most of the time. Having the option of turning that crap off would be great. Too much to ask I imagine.
Floating names (cant reduce or dim), floating squad leader inidcators, the useless rambling script running at the left of the screen letting us all know that "major Idiot has just killed "PsychoKiller666" again, voice macros reprinted for the def among us and HUD material that cant be turned off.
(I know, thank Jesus DICE was kind enough to give us the option of removing the "3d map." and yes, you can dim the mini map and ~renderer,drawhud 0, fine but no crosshairs and cant toggle it on and off)
You know what I mean...Here are 3 simple suggestions that would add great aesthetic value and focus to the game.
1. allow players at least the option of removing the running babble on the left of the screen.
2. allow for dimming or reducing or using a toggle turn them on and off (do we really need to see the rank of each player as well?).
3. allow for a key bind allowing to turn the mini map on and off.
Problems after patch that have driven at least a temporary nail into my proverbial BF2 coffin.
-sound issues
-poor texture and new graphic glitches
-seriously degraded performance. After 5-10 minutes the game goes from smooth play to chhhuggg. last night went from one game to another and entering the game it was like a slide show.
Running an FX-55, 2 gigs RAM and an X800XT PE makes this particulalry irksome. (all spy ware, adware, registry cleaners are used and updated daily and I know how to use my hardware-not a genius but experienced end user).
-frequent "this server does not allow modified content....revert to recent version" refusals
-for the love of Methuselah...on earth (and I assume the game BF2 is located here, on this planet) gravity does not allow for human begins wearing 50 pounds of gear to JUMP 5 FEET IN THE AIR-OVER AND OVER AND OVER!!!!
Wheeeew. Alright I am almost done and "24" is on in a minute and my girlfriend is stewing...I can feel it from the other room.
Dont hate BF2 just really burned out on poor game play and technical issues.
And I think that in the back of my mind what really ****es me off is that DICE just keeps pumpin out--pimpin out -- "new game" add ons...Special Forces, great maps but talk about poor performance and needless new vehicles and toys. And now, (drum roll) get ready (horns) , hold on tight (angelic choir rises)...
the European Theater is here!!! YEAH, Yeah....Whoooohowww.
Right on!
DICE, please first address the absolute mess BF2 has become.
Sgt Soso, over and out.
At least for a month or so.........
