Kitlope Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Well, at Chris's suggestion, we should all try to get into a good game of Battlefield. I know of some good servers we could play on, so its just a matter of us hooking up. Since I'm assuming that many of us don't use teamspeak I would like to use a server with less than about 24 people, otherwise the chat lag is brutal and communicating isn't really possible. The truth is the easiest way for us to get some good gaming in together is for you to go to http://www.wolfgaming.net and register. Its not a clan, just a cool community of other gamers. This way, if you already have a mic we could use the teamspeak that Wolf has installed for our pleasure Go here http://www.teamspeak.org and download version 2.0.29.47. There is a newer version released about Aug. 10th but Wolf isn't running it. Here's a handy walkthrough to setting up TS if need be I don't want to make this sound like a Wolf endorsment but I would like to game with some of my fellow LCVG friends ... When I'm on the pc (which is a lot) I'm usually quite easy to get a hold of, either through Wolf, teamspeak or my MSN messenger (add me ipitythefoo@hotmail.com) I would like to see if we can arrange something for the weekend, any suggestions for times/dates that one is available would be great! If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask! See you all on the Battlefield! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Count me in later this weekend Mike. I'd love to get some good BF time in, and I encourage anyone else to play as well! The game is THAT damn good, and with a bunch of us playing, it'd be even better! Come on soldiers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Count me in, if I can coordinate the schedule. I've been trying to find a good group of people to play BF with. I've yet to play on a public server that wasn't full of TKers and idiots who have no concept of teamwork. I have a mic, but it's a standalone setup. I've been waiting to find a good mic/headset combo (I've had my eye on the Plantronics DSP-500) before trying the voice com. I imagine it makes for a much more coordinated game. I've been praticing my flight skills, mostly in Desert Combat (I'm loving the attack chopper) and Galactic Conquest. I'm pleased with my progress, especially with choppers.

Kitlope Posted August 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 I'm free pretty much all weekend (as usual :wink: ) so if anyone wants to suggest a time that their available for we'll use that. Then we'll need to decide on a server, but I'm thinking that will have to wait until closer to game time for whether its full of players or not can always change.

merlot Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Damn, I'll be away this weekend. I'll look for the next round. Haven't played BF1942 in a couple months now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 It has yet to be determined whether or not I will be available. You can rest assured that I'll try very hard to attend. Feel free to message me if/when you get something set up. AIM: blackcalx MSN: blackcalx@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishepa Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 I'm thinking about getting this game. How would it run on a P4 1.5 with 512mb RAM and a Geforce2 TI 64mb video card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it would run just fine, so long as you have a broadband connection to go with it. If there is a bottleneck it would be the graphics card, but as long as it can handle hardware T&L you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 WarEagle, your set up is similar to mine, except I'm only running a 1 gig p4, and mine runs it great. Can't wait to see what it looks like when I upgrade. We should arrage another LVCG BF 1942 get together, I missed the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishepa Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Alright, I'm gonna pick this up on my lunch break, would anyone be interested in playing some time tonight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Count me out, under protest. I have a prior engagement tonight, but will be free the remainder of the week around 9 or 10 PST. Next week, however, I should be free at any time after 5 PST. My contact info is posted above so feel free to send a message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played for about 2 minutes at lunch using 800x600x32 resolution with draw distance at 100% and texture at 80% at it seemed REALLY choppy.

Eldorado Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 I'm looking to get this game at Ebay. But I'm wondering about all the versions coming from Thailand. Would they still work alright here? They're so cheap I'm wondering if there is anything wrong. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishepa Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Good question Eldorado. I was looking this at ebay this morning as well debating on whether or not to get my copy from ebay. I just ended up going to Wal-Mart and getting it for $40. Better safe than sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 If you hold off long enough you can get the bonus pack that contains BF1942 and Road to Rome for $40.00. I don't know exactly when it will be released, only that it is coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 Sorry WarEagle, -Just read your post! I'll have to post here when I get home from work, I'm not sure what my settings are.?? You've got me stumped, it runs fine on my computer, now I'm curious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitlope Posted September 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Blackcalx I have added you to my msn messenger, I see your online but always away. Just message me if ever you want to play. And that goes for anybody else I'm always up for some BF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 I'm usually around, you just need to send me a message. I'm not too good at setting my away status these days. I'll send you a message if I get the urge to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A CLAN OF ONE Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 Has anyone picked up the new "Secret Weapons" expansion pack? I'm looking all over for it and I can't find it. :x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Well, this is a good time for me to play. My wife is visiting family so I'm available pretty much any day, all day (after work, that is). I also picked up Secret Weapons last night so it's a good time to try it out.

Kitlope Posted September 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 I'll be picking up secret weapons tommorrow. I'll be on msn (I might have it set to away but just pm me) when you want to get in game!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 I plan on picking up Secret Weapons tonight, so I'll probably be up for a game at some point. Now I just need to rebuild the BF server I had running at work before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Has anyone picked up the new "Secret Weapons" expansion pack? I can't see picking this up for the following reasons, 1. I picked up the last expansion (Road to Rome) and after the inital wow-release period was over I have found fewer and fewer reliable servers running the expansion 2. When they are running the expansion and rotating the maps they alomst never seem to be on an expansion map 3. The servers running the expansion and currently running an expansion map rarely seem to have players on them I liked Road to Rome alot, but my experiences ahve have swayed me from purchasing another expansion. I am looking forward to the next Battlefield, it's looks Great! I just need to up-grade my PC to take full advantage of it and HL2. :green: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitlope Posted September 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2003 Good playing Bf with you Blackcalx! I'm sure I'll see you again out there! Heh just picked up secret weapons yesterday and still have a few things to figure out (like giving buddy flak for basecamping in objective mode) but in a short while I'm sure I'll understand. And I must say I was quite impressed with your score on the first game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
