Battlefield 2

[DQuaN]

Because i have the demo, i have no doccumentation for the game. Google has come up with nothing i need. What i am looking for is basically the controls for all the different vehicles. I still haven't figured out how to drop bombs from planes. And using the right mouse button to fire missiles is annoying when using the keyboard to fly!

Anyone know of anything?

 

[donbenni]

You press F i believe to swap between missles and bombs on some planes. And use the mouse Dunc, surely it's better than the keys? :?

 

[DQuaN]

No way. Not for me anyway.

 

[Blackbird.]

Its fun hunting planes down with the stinger of IGLA. Not going to give any of my hints out how I use it to shoot down planes. Because then I may get my tactics used against me.

BAH! You are the number one enemy to us cobra pilots.

To drop bombs you right click. Most of the time once it will drop all of them at once but sometimes it will only drop one so just click alot.

I often leave the helicopters well alone, mainly because I think they suck in comparison to the ones in Desert Combat Still there better than BF : Vs. Running people over with the nose of the AH-64 was always good for a laugh.

Bombers really annoy me, how can they get it so spot on every time!? True I haven't tried myself but its far too silly. If only the bombers used in real life were that accurate...

 

[Giancarlo]

Igla?

 

[Pebb]

Its a heat seaking missle. I love dropping bombs in the jets. Took me a while to get good aiming with one.

But if a IGLA or Stinger locks onto me, I just drop a bomb on them. Then all my worries are gone.

 

[Pebb]

Not been playing BF2 of late been too busy playing Forza on Xbox Live.

 

[Giancarlo]

Heat seeking? I thought they were only fly-by-wire?

 

[donbenni]

The turret things that you sit in are heat seeking, the moblie launchers are fly by wire.

 

[///M-Spec]

They are indeed heat seeking, and readily home in on the exhaust signature of the nearest friendly jet or chopper, thereby earning you many negative teamwork points in short order 👍

Oh well you could have just called those stingers, no? And what's amazing about taking down planes or choppers in those?

 

[Blackbird.]

Amazing how they can manage to hit me after I drop the countermeasures.

Was this meant in reply to me?

It depends on the timing when you let the flares free.

 

[T5-R]

Gotta say the unlock system is pretty cack, its taking me forever to unlock my 2nd gun and I'm probably never going to reach my 3rd. Which is a pity because I deeply regret unlocking the medic kit. I also can't be bothered/don't see why I should have to create another account.

I'm all for specialising, but this is just wasting game content.

 

[Pebb]

I,m going to start playing BF2 again as soon, as I get my MX518 Gaming mouse through the post in the next cople of days. Then I be ready to maybe take on TR5 and other people from European nations in this forum, that have the full version of BF2.

Right before It made that sound I hate. The flatline meaning it's been fired. *shudders*

 

[Pebb]

Shame my ping would not like me to play against BlackBird, its a real shame g of europeans being on US servers and ping messing up. And US people being on European servers and ping messing up.

 

[Giancarlo]

I should have DSL by the end of the month, so i'll be playing regularly too.

My Xfire name is minus955, as is my BF2 username (even though that doesn't really do any good but yeah, whatever).

 

[Blackbird.]

Tag is not blackbird. It's something really screwy since Blackbird was taken. It's: BLAACKBiRD

And my ping is perfect on UK servers. Just tell me your TeamSpeak IP and i'll join the server.

 

[Pebb]

Anyone who wants to play me in BF2 get Xfire, and my xfire is tvrfan. Because my G36C needs new fresh meat.

Ok I think we should all decide on a BF2 subject of the week. Ok the new Subject of the week is:

What will be your first weapon unlock or 2nd Weapon Unlock, maybe even your next weapon Unlock. Mine will be the next medic weapon up, after picking it up at times in game.

I so want it now, but I be glad to fight for it. Because thats the main thing.

Also in a cople of months I may be signing up to a service for about £70 a year, which allows me to create my own custom BF2 server and other game servers.

 

[Blackbird.]

PKM all the way no looking back (second unlock)

Why do you need Xfire to communicate with you just DL teamspeak RC2.

For my third believe it or not I'm thinking M95. More for the sound then the power.

 

[Giancarlo]

Right now i have the G36 and freaking love it! I'm gonna go with the PKM for my next unlock, then the L85, then the DAO, then the G3, and then who knows. After getting all those kits 3 years will probably have passed.

Why do you need Xfire to communicate with you just DL teamspeak RC2.

Because through Xfire you can join a teamspeak server is on, or see what other chat programs/servers they're on, along with directly joining the server they play in. Xfire also stores recent servers you've visited and allows you to save favorites.

 

[Pebb]

By that time it be BF3 so looking forward to the add on pack, when Spec Forces add on pack comes out. I be playing mainly as the SAS, since SAS rule.

 

[T5-R]

I need a new mouse too, my new motherboard has decided to not bother using MS Intellimouse Explorer 4's mouse wheel 70% of the time which is really annoying.

At the moment I'm using my Intellimouse Explorer 3 of which the mousewheel always works, but is worn out and makes a nasty grinding sound. The middle mouse button is often accidently clicked because of this too

Tried out the G3 online on my brothers account and I've got to say it kicks arse, so much better then the crappy medic unlock. First time I used it I went to an enemy base and took out 5 people with ease I think the anti-tank shotgun will have to wait.

 

[the_undrtaker89]

I Wanna play bf2......but I need a computer that will be able to play it first.....Help me!!!(link in my sig)

 

[Boost Lee]

The G3 like the L85 is only effective on single-shot. (both have obscene recoil on full-auto)

Go with the DAO-12 man.. Ruthless CQC gun - rockets can be used as anti-infantry or AT/AV - body armor. The only downside I have found to using the DAO, is when you die someone ALWAYS picks up your kit!!

 

[T5-R]

Well I dunno, the G3 seems to fit nicely with my infantry vs infantry playing style and I can't say I had any problems with it fully auto (well used it in bursts) and I killed someone at long range with a single shot

But anti-tank is my most used kit, I find it satisfying anticipating vehicles movement (or simply firing at an angle so they can't see it). I've played the anti-tank class so much now I can even kill 2+ people per clip with the mp5 (I don't always resort to pistol now )and the crappy chinese army gun. The MEC anti-tank sub machine gun is ace anyway.

I just played 2 rounds of Mashtuur city or however you spell it and got 2 golds using the medic kit, although most of it was to do with revives and healing opposed to the L85. Although I did better than I do with it normally. Had some fun with G3s though from people I killed.

Half way to corporal now yay Medic class is probably best for getting global score up, due to easiness or revives and healing.

the_undrtaker89 I replyed to your help build PC topic, looks like my mouse will not be here until the week now. Then maybe I can start arranging a game with TR-5 in the week mate.
