Heres my question: doe the 203 work just like the BF42 explansion GL did, where it ALWAYS bounces until its timer runs down, or will it only bounce if it has not traveled far enough to arm its contact fuse, but blow on impact if it HAS traveled far enough to arm.

Theres still a trailer to kill, too, but now you can see and shoot down the UAV itself, too. Logically, one smart sniper packing an M95.....

Theres also a screen of the final changelog, inclding a couple other nuggets (lower FB count on the F200...

Wow. EA just made my day, AND totally changed CAL play forever. Now BF2 might turn into a real semi-realistic squad shooter instead of a CSS clone with vehicles. Alot of CAL teams may actually quit now that their favorite infantry weapon just went down the tubes. Personally, I think Ill like the GL ...

Oh yeah. But, if youre going to do that, might as well do the whole smash: video card, motherboard, processor, case and PSU. Dell cases are almost always 100% NOT compatable with standard motherboards, and if you toss in an upgraded motherboard and video card youll be needing the PSU to match.

Ive been using Corsair Value Select RAM now for about 9 months and have had great experience with it. Ive got their 1GB kit (2x512) in, and Im going to be adding a second 1GB kit with my tax return (2GB, 4x512 total). That is one killer deal on the 2GB set, though. If you want just 1GB total, you ca...

Ive checked the registry by hand every time, and have yet to find any keys that the uninstall fails to remove, at least not in any obvious places. Seems everything so far is alright....so far, anyway.

Mad, Im starting to think that might be right, too. All the uninstalls and installs though led to SF outright failing to patch BF2 properly before installing. I exchanged SF for a new copy and Im going to try again... Edit for update: New discs have so far worked flawlessly. Patch went through fine ...

Sometimes if you press something other than ESC to skip the intro movies, that keystroke carries over to your password field and it will say you entered the wrong password. But, after the error, if you click "Login" again it will work fine.

Unusualo PB kicks....

For the past few days Ive been getting kicked by PB on servers for having modified content. (Please note, I do not hack, and I have not had yet a message saying PB kicked me for use of cheats, just "Modified content") This seems to happen only on certain maps. So far, it has happened on Op...

Also, you get one additional unlock for every rank starting at Sergeant, and this is applied to all ranks you already have. I was a Gunnery Sgt. when I got SF, so I got three unlocks as well. Currently I have every vanilla unlock and the F2000.

Hopefully the patch WILL fix some of the totally stupid hacks that seem to be out now. There have been some really insane things Ive been seeing on games, like players not frigging dying, getting perfect headshots over and over with the F2000 when they should have even see their vic in time.....gett...
