You don't need 2 gigs of RAM for this game do you?

Yeah, BF2 makes me wanna upgrade to 2 gigs of RAM.

But uh, the M95 shoots through helicopter cockpits. Which is cool, cause I sniped someone while they were flyin' an apache the other day.

Haha, and Jesse got sniped while flyin' the apache with me as his gunner...

So yeah, the M95 (the sniper's weapon unlock) is pretty coo'.

According to ME: the M95 blows. It's useless.

they shoulda included the M82A1.

barret rifles all look the same to me, and all tend to be stupidly powerful :p

LOL Jesse, Jon and I had a blast playing it last night. We kept on flying under the dam on the huge 64 player map, then capturing the point and flying out. The last time we tried it, the pilot got shot.. so we were sitting ducks. I can't fly for shit, but I had to be the hero. I jumped into the pilot seat, hit the throttle...



and pranged the chopper straight into the roof, killing all five of us. I rock so hard that people just can't keep up.

It's so fun when you're playing as a helicopter squad I hit three vehicles in a row using the anti-tank gun from the side of the chopper, wire guided goodness. Two on a tank below as we were gunning it past, and another on a chopper that was trying to shoot us down. God damn fun FUN.

If you'll notice, I've gotten the expert knife combat badge, becase I'm way too awesome for this world.

Also, if anyone ever sees a 'Charles' squad, come join it. (But be sure to leave/rejoin the squad if you're the commander and you die).

I love TFC more than life itself. The reason I love TFC is because of those moments when you're all like "Wow. Never in a million years will that guy figure out how, or more importantly WHY I got over there and killed him."

Like building an SG on the cap point in Well. That sort of thing.

I like battlefield2 a because you can do a lot of the same type of thing. My favorite pasttime in BF2 is flying over a US carrier as MEC of PLA and parachuting down onto the bridge with the M95 (Which rocks hardcore, btw). Sniping a string of 5 very confused marines out of a cockpit of a blackhawk is... well... Nothing beats that.
Except for having a friend up there in your squad so you can keep respawning.

Oh, and if anyone was wondering, the map editor is pretty good (good on the scale of 'Hammer is the best (which it is) and all other editors are somewhere below it'). It's better than the Sandbox editor from farcry, at least. I've got Sucia Island in production:

Hoo ha. I hope to see you guys in game.

Yeah, my squad was destroying everybody on that map.

See, you can get the blackhawk on that map, and if you got some people in there that know what's up you can rip the shit outta everybody. The blackhawk can hold 6 people total, I think.

Pilot
2 gunners
3 non-gunner spots

I would fly while the other guys in the squad would gun down and repair and all that other shit. The 3 non-gunner spots are just places for you to sit in the blackhawk, but you can still do whatever it is that you would do normally. So, engineers can repair you midflight, antitank guys can fire their RPGs, special ops guys would be able to throw C4 out the sides. You can do whatever you did before, but you're just in a helicopter. As the pilot, I was a medic, so I passively heal people when we're in the same vehicle, and other stuff like that.

Defrag left like a little bitch with a skinned knee before the just.. non-stop action happened, though.

Also, in BF2 you can have "Squads." So, instead of everyone just bein' on their own you can join a squad and you're able to spawn with your squad leader. See, without a squad you have to spawn at a flag that you maintain on the map, but with a squad you can select your squad leader as the place to spawn. Sooooo, if your squad leader is flyin' a helicopter, and there's an empty slot, you'll spawn inside of the helicopter.

Haha, every game of BF2 is just.. it's awesome, and so much cool shit happens all the time. Well, it actually sucks if you're on a team that's full of people who have no idea what's going on, and the other team just destroys you, but other than that it's non-stop fun, baby.
