Our BF:BC2 server?
« Topic Start: March 05, 2010, 09:31:41 AM »
This post may be a little premature but...

We might as well start figuring out if this is going to have some staying power and if we're ready to fork over about $40/month for a 32 slot server (via gameservers.com at least).
We can't host it ourselves...yet.
I can't even find a list of these 'authorized hosts' so I can compare prices.

What thinks you?

I would give it another week or two to figure out what gametype people like, and if people will get bored with the game or will want to keep playing.

Not sure yet, to be honest.  Will we have enough to get it populated?  Or will be lazy (as usual) and just find one to take over?

Anyway, I'd be interesting to hear what it takes to become an official host since we have some hosting companies in this lil club of ours.

None the less, I'll pitch in to fund the first few months if we go down that route.

I'm reading that there is no "infantry only" setting available but the "Squad Deathmatch" game type only has one vehicle in the center of the map for the teams to fight over.    I'd like to try a little of that with the hope of finding less tank & heli rape. I guess vehicles have always been a big part of this game and will probably always be.  While I understand that they're a realistic and very effective option on any battlefield, they're really turning me off to this game so far.

The game is turning into me sniping 24/7 so I don't have much issues with the vehicles.

I question sniping's long term appeal for me as well.  (Though I find it odd that I can snipe in MW2 and BC2 couldnt do shit in COD4).  Anyway...  I'm assuming with more unlocks (and experience) some of the other classes will open up.

I'm getting better and better at sniping and as I do it gets more fun. Just now pulled a 15-0.

Same goes for all the classes really. The more I use them and the better I get the more fun and less chaotic the game gets.

Anyone had any luck adding servers to favorites?  I can't seem to get past the eternal "Waiting for data"...

Im glad im busy this weekend or I would be pissed,hopefully they fix it by tomorrow night and i can play...

I'm starting to enjoy the game,  I'd be willing to fork over a few bucks a month for our own server. 

I almost got one today when we could connect.

Having more issues than ever.... browser crashes, not connecting, crashing etc.

I tried to give medic another shot....sniped and sniped and team tagged by some assault guy and a sniper.. ridiculous.
Might as well snipe again.

Should we wait until the next patch? Because whatever servers I had under my history, or favs, they are all grayed out. Not too sure what that means, but I think we would not be getting the most bang for the buck, and I don't think we are in much need of recruits are we?
