Constant kicks on other servers

Red, most of us are really only having minor problems. I wonder if the settings on computer just need to be tweaked.

Could be... but it's the only game that I play that even gives me the headaches that this one has. Again... SP mode... SWEET! In fact, I'll occasionally throw in the game to play against bots. And I kick their arse!

However, multiplayer seems fine at first, when there are less than say, eight people. Then after that, it all goes downhill. Right where I need to be to make any impact towards my stats.

I've tried several servers, and all do me the same justice. My settings are set on medium (any lower, and the game looks terrible), I have a 256MB X700 vid card, and a gig of PC3200 DDR400 RAM. I start with a clean boot (all services and applications off except for the bare necessities), and my cable internet has had download speeds clocked at over 5 Mbps (upload can't be too bad I would think). I would like to place blame on the either the video card or lack of memory (that doesn't make sense). Who knows...

Just frustrating.

As a test, try playing with all the setting set to low, just to see what happens and how long its "stable". If the problem comes up again, it would seem to indicate vid card issues. I wonder if EA made any back room deals with ATI, hmm...

Nope, they made deals with Nvidia! But lets not get into that one right now. . .

Constant KIcks? I just don't get it, I must be one of the lucky one's that doesn't have problems with bf2 at all........

I hate to say it Red, but BF2 is tweaked for Nvidia. I think your X700 is the problem. I hate to say it, but a further investment into an Nvidia card might be the only solution for you. I have a game called Vampire the Masquerade which is also tweaked for Nvidia. My ATI 9600 Pro can run it, but it's got more crashes than Evel Knievel (is that better Ryland?). That game runs fine on my Nvidia computer. You may be having the same problem YZF...although the last time I had a problem with a 9800 card it was the motherboard's fault, not the vid card.

More then likely you guys are right, but isnt it a bit like kicking yourself in the balls by handicapping the game for people that play with your competitors card?

Have you guys tried the slimmed down drivers for the ATI vid cards? Sometimes that does the trick too. Plus theyre normally "tuned" for gaming.

Im not sure what the deal is but EVERY time I play on another server at some point I will get kicked for team killing, even though I have not tk'd anyone. Also I tried a few random servers and it says I have been banned for tking.

Not to mention i got banned in the hale last night for no reason too.

Whats going on?

Honestly, I can agree with you here Robo. Before our server was up, I was kicked ALL THE TIME from other servers... it was really pissing me off. 3 minutes before the map end, I was 30 points above #2 player... BAM kick for TK. I didnt TK a god damn person! I just accredited it towards jealous admins who wanted a medal, but who knows. I think the 69ers are pretty good about our kicking and banning.. i rarely kick people, and like 99% of the time its to make room for me to join ... though some a-hole yesterday shot down my helicopter when i was coming back to repair so him and his friend "copterjew" could get in it. I respawned and jumped in before the guy did, but the copterjew was flying so he just flew in circles and bailed before it crashed, killing me again. BAN!

Yeah I was in there, his name was ChopperJew.

I cant imagine admins would kick me over jealousy, im not that good, and I keep real quiet on OTHER servers. ANytime i try to log onto the DIrt Rats server, it kicks me immediately, saying ive been banned for exsisssive TKing - Ive never even f**king been on there!!!! It happened on two seperate days.
