Number of Times BF2 Has Crashed/Frozen/Become Unplayable: 2
Number of Consecutive Minutes Played Without Encountering Any Problems: 2
Looks like the GeForce 6800 bug has got me by the balls. It's even worse than the demo. Do they call it Battlefield 2 becuase you only get to play it for about 2 minutes before your shit crashes?

What do I need to properly communiate with my team playing on shack servers. In-game? Teamspeak?
Also, do you guys use headsets or stand alone mikes. Does just the voice come over the headset, or is it the entire game. Sorry for the n00b questions, my only VOIP experience is Xbox live.
Lastly, didn't all UT2004s ship with a headset? I'm wondering if I have an unused headset lying around here somewhere.
Thanks! See you in a few...

The game is playing relatively fine (albeit with the random crash to desktop, but I can deal with that all things considered).
Then, all of a sudden, BOOM. It drops to like 2 FPS. Even the menu takes like 30 seconds to load. Happens out of nowhere. Nothing seems to make it stop. Sometimes it will stop eventually, for little/no reason, but others I have to ctrl-alt-delete my way out of the game.
God this game is a POS.

Alright, I just spent the last hour writing up a number of reasons that people could easily hate Battlefield 2 for (though I personally love it). These aren't a list of fanboy-esque reasons for liking or even disliking Battlefield 2, this is just a list of solid facts about the game that I felt needed to be digested into a single spot with a relatively decent amount of explanation.
Anyway, check it out: http://www.polycat.net/?p=1050

Some observations:
This game is exceedingly buggy for a retail release. Everything from the set up menues to wrong team colors showing up on respawns should have been caught in testing. The performance of the in-game browser is a joke. Not sure what the hell they were huffing, but that's just inexcusable.
The game itself is GORGEOUS. I had a lot of connection issues, which is weird because the server is just a couple hundred miles north of me. Lots of "connection error" flashes across the screen with the game not responding right to input. Not sure where that problem is coming from, it may be server related due to the huge number of people on it.
I'm sure the point release will make the game very playable. Dice had the same problem with BF1942 and it took a couple of patches to bring it into line. It's going to take me a while to get into the groove with the additions this game brings to the table, like the squads.
Right now, it's just frustrating. I'm hoping they patch this soon.
BTW, EA gets a cookie for releasing this on DVD.

Alright, it is READY. The first of many Shacknews ShackBattle servers is running and ready for you to party on.
64 players, weapons unlocked, Commanders and Squad leaders will not be moved for balancing. Depending on how it goes I may change it so that the only players to be balanced are those that are not in squads.

Someone please PM me it, since apparently I'm stoopid.

I won't be getting this game for another two weeks or so thanks to being overseas, so now that most Shackers have abandoned the demo servers I'm pretty much once again resigned to playing the local Japanese.
