Default for anyone who plays battlefield 2142

what is going on with this game? first i win the infiltrator pin THREE times, and it doesnt show up in my awards, then i have collected at least 20 dogtags but it says i have collected 4 (of which 3 are unique...wrong again). Then, for a while, punkbuster would kick me off for no reason (thank god that stopped). My newest problem: i cant get more than 10 seconds (usually less) into a game without supposedly losing connection to the server. anyone got a fix for this?

Battlefield 2 had many bugs when it first came out.
Some went away and some persisted. I still like BF2, but haven't tried 2142.
I doubt I'll pick it up if EA can't release a PC game without it being properly tested though.

I totally loved BF2... but the multiplayer didn't work on my home PC.. I upgraded every single driver etc etc but I always got an infamous blue screen after 2 minutes which forced me to turn off the PC. Single player was working perfectly though... It worked fine on my bro's PC (nVidia while I have an ATI), so I'm still pissed at it for the waste of money. I will NOT buy BF21andsomething even if I'm sure I'd love it, I don't feel like trusting them again.

I'm attending a 16-man LAN party at a friend's house this upcoming Saturday for BF2142. Fortunately, we're getting the copies at a HUGE discount, so if it turns out to be a dud, I'm only out the cost of 3 starbucks coffee's

it's been working fine for me today. i love the new unlock system. it's definetely my favorite online shooter atm. the feeling i get when i dive in a trench while missiles are falling all around me and bullets are flying by, kicking up dirt all around me and dropping people all around me is so awesome.

Starbucks ain't cheap.

I dont own it, but from what i've heard it monitors your web surfing habits and then places in-game ads based on the data it collects.

Hehe, wish I could, but my EA-contact probably maxed out his allowed number of purchases hooking everyone else up in that LAN party.
