Any other specs you need?

Also, my Joystick is not at all cheap but it doesnt show up on the "controls" screen anywhere. Its a Logitech Wingman Extreme Digital.

Thanks for the help so far.

That graphics card could be a problem. What are its specs? How about your processor and motherboard? Do you have the latest version of directX, and all your other drivers?

Sad to say, your computer might just be too old to run it correctly

OMFG. DC=pwn. Wonder if they'll finish it before PS comes out?

Led, which server do you normally play on?

Led · 2003-02-15, 09:19 PM

I would like to have a regular server, but they keep going down or ending up empty

Basically, I find the biggest, lowest pinging server possible. As soon as some regular 64 or 48 player servers start up, you can find me there ^_^

I personally think that the apache is just a way to get easy kills, the real action is driving a humvee

I really enjoy shooting down helis from my fighter, but i take no such pleasure in flying the heli while taking cheap kills. I take pleasure in strafing the enemy airfield when the plane whores are waiting for planes, then i launch a missile and watch the kills pile up. I'm sure the Hind will be great in the next version, and the helis won't b as cheap.

The A10 isn't? That thing can kills troops, infantry..anything in seconds with it's guns and it's missiles too. It also moves faster and is more maneuverable than the Apache.

Sure, you can get plenty of kills if you are a spawncamping rocket spamming bastid

I, on the other hand, use it like one should use a real chopper

Anti armor 'n air support, you call, we haul!

Well my grahphics card works on alot of other games, recently released ones, too, like Mafia.

Yes the A-10 does need to be toned down, but on the other hand you cannot kill 6 people with one SMAW or RPG rocket, whereas you can with 1 of your 8hydras on the apache.

Sputty · 2003-02-15, 10:11 PM

You mean Hellfire I think but that doesn't matter...Anyway...The apache can get owned rather easily by the Shilka or even a smart guy in a tank..Or a MIG....or an RPG...A big list can easily take out an apache while the A10 can maneuver easily or soldiers can hide...Tanks on the other hand..heh...tehy need good air support...BTW..It's a major weapon...it's supposed to be really strong...also..Only a group of idiots would travel packed like that...Spread out if you ahve an idea th apache is near..it's super loud

I just got auto-banned from the server Sputty and I were playing on! DOH#!

Seems that 3 TKs = kick, 2 kicks = ban.

Two of the first three were on purpose, my own teammates trying to shoot down my chopper while trying to pick Sputty up. So I fed them some rockets. Sputty caught one too (SUCK IT... err... sorry! ^_^

. First kick. Next two TKs were on accident. There was a T72 approaching a flag, and four guys with M16s defending it, no chance against armor. So I had to choose... lose the flag, or kill the tank and risk some TKs. So I shot it, two TKs (cringe). Final one, was hunting down a sniper, saw a guy off in the distance in the trees. Looked at my radar TWICE to make sure there was not a blue mark there, and fired a missile. TK. ARGH.

/kick

/ban

I hate FF servers
