  1. I played BF42 and most of it's mods(pirates!), and BFVietnam.  I bought BF2 just to get FH2.  I doubt I played more than a couple of hours of vanilla BF2.  I haven't bothered with any of the others.  I got a copy of Bad Company 2 sitting here, I never got past setting up an account.  The point is Battlefield started sucking immediately after BFVietnam.  Since it stopped being mod-able after BF2, there is really no point IMO.

  2. Well, we need to get 3 flags and attack a 4th.  We have to leave somebody on defense as we roll through.  If the 100th wants to be the assault crew, that's fine.  The 41st and 67th can play more defensively.  Since the flags are so close together the defenders can be flexible.  Most of them can be offensive, leaving a couple to sit on the flag.  They should have no problem getting back to it if the enemy slips in.  Hopefully, they don't allow any gaps in the lines for them to do that.  Meanwhile, my 3-man squad can continuously attack the 5th flag.

     

    ~edit  Whoops.  I didn't even realize I was in the 100th barracks.  Well, let's start getting this stuff to the strategy thread.

  3. You are both right.  Both ping and graphics settings have too much impact on this game.

    i don't know what to do about ping, other than play on a New York based server like WaW.  

    It is very unfortunate that low settings actually turns of undergrowth(grass, etc.) and shadows.  I don't know why it doesn't just produce a lower quality version of those.  Until someone comes up with a fix for that, mappers just have to be mindful of not using grass, etc. as a kind of cover.  We also know that dark maps will be inconsistent.  Battle Isle was kind of messed up in the Pacific campaign.  I know there were some low settings guys hiding in the dark buildings where high settings players couldn't see them until it was too late.

    Anyway, there are no fixes coming anytime soon.  We just have to adjust our.  High pingers should man static assets and MG snipers should stop trying to hide in the grass.
