Downloading now. Should be playing in about an hour. Do we have a server or anything? I haven't read the thread in too much depth.

Wish I could join y'all - but CPU 2 slow - or really graphics card. Can't upgrade shit b/c it is HP's all-in-one touchsmart 600. Assassin's creed 2 nearly killed it- couldn't play that so I doubt it'll do this. Have fun blowing shit up!

Fucking goddamn it! I just waited all of this fucking time to download the huge game using the shitty GameStop interface, and once it finished and was verifying it, the shitty program froze for a few minutes. When it became operational again, it shows the game as not having been downloaded. So I have to fucking wait for another hour and a half, maybe two hours. Should have just gone and bought it, but I thought "this will be more convenient". Fucking idiot!

we on vent.

Should have fucking known better than to buy another goddamn EA product. Nothing but goddamn hassle right from the get go. After downloading it a second time, I am now trying to install it, but i have to do it through EA/Origin. Origin kept getting me to update their software, even though I had already just updated and installed it. Had to uninstall and reinstall and restart to make it finally get me to the log in screen to create an account. Now it's telling me my fucking email is associated with an account... OK. I try to change passwords, I get a validation code email and use it, type in a new password and hit next. It fucking tells me my email address is not a valid account. You just fucking told me it was goddamn it! I have never had a fucking EA product that worked worth a flying fuck. I will never give EA another fucking cent of my goddamn money after I get this thing working. FUCK!!!

Oh, well fuck. Now it works randomly after 15 attempts. Now I get to install yet more bullshit software. Let me just play the game already, pretty fucking please! What happened to the day when you just fucking install and play. Have to have an installer for the installer, then an anti cheat software, then a software to combine accounts with other games and platforms, then some more software for communications...

I could smash babies with a mallet like Gallagher smashed watermelons. :vash:

Battlelog autojoin. This will own your life.

Is this fucking real life. WHAT THE FUCK!? Now playing the game, every so often I get a "no cd detected, insert CD" prompt from windows popping up. that's OK though, because I can't fucking play it anyway, because of the opening scene when you crash through the train window and grab the gun, my fucking left mouse button won't respond so I just get killed over and over. Again I say it, fuck EA. How the fuck they still exist as a company is beyond me. It's certainly not for their product quality. How the fuck do you make a goddamn game where the objective is to shoot shit ,and the fucking shoot shit button doesn't fucking work!? I am not alone on this, it's apparently a big problem with the game. I mean goddamn, do they even test their shit? The last 2 EA products I bought recently, which was NCAA 11 and 12, neither of them work well on PS3. They freeze constantly and lock my PS3 and I have to do a hard reset.

Lol. You are having some really bad luck. I haven't been able to play coop yet because battlelog sucks.

I'm on vent.

The whole fucking thing sucks. Fucking EA. My rage right now... and I could have been sleeping, instead I stayed up for this frustration. Oh well, maybe they will release a fucking patch soon so the goddamn "fire" button works and I can actually play the game.

Have you checked your bindings?

Anyone running this shit on an older cpu?
I've got an E8400 dual core overclocked to 4ghz or so. I figured I can score a Radeon 6950 for like $180 used, and that should give me enough oomph to run at 1680x1050 at decent settings. PSU is a 750W which should be sufficient

confirm/deny? Also heard you can unlock 6950s to 6970, which would be bauce. Like the ye old days of Radeon 9500 unlocking to 9700.

My i7 920 @ 3.5ghz runs around 85-90% load with hyperthreading disabled. 1920x1080, pretty much all gfx settings maxed.

I tried unlocking my new 6950s and did a bit of research after I bought them. You'll have the best luck trying to unlock a reference version. Pretty much any new 6950 you buy will not be unlockable. Mine weren't.

Found out why battlelog fails. Antivirus was interfering. That should've been the first thing that came to mind.

Yea, i had a shit ton of issues installing it. I ended up updating Origin first then attempted to install the game.

Overall, its ok. I really like BF BC2 so.... was it worth it, i paid $65. I would say nah.

And no one is on vent for it either, so that is teh fail

I'm getting on vent n stuffs!
