Default Not quite what I'd expect.

I tried on and off for 3 days to get this downloaded and installed on my son's computer. It took 5 tries to finally download the install file. We tried downloading it from 3 different places. When we finally got it downloaded, it would not install without reinstalling DX9 (even though it was already installed and updated). Then when you finally get it installed and sit through the introduction movie that you can't skip, it hangs up connecting to their server. Then when you do get connected to their server, it hangs your computer.

WAY TO GO EA GAMES!!!!

I got to play this game this weekend and it's not bad. It's basically the same as Battlefield 2 with different graphics and redesigned kits. I only played a few single player maps, which got boring after the first round. Having not played any multiplayer games, I can't comment on that.

Well, I tryed the demo this last weekend, and it is pretty much like BF2. It was pretty good though.

If anyone is interested gogamer is shipping the game now. It is $44.90.

Here is the link:

Even if I were to buy this game (which is tempting), I would wait until they can get these bugs taken care of and the patches actually do what they are supposed to and not open up new holes.

I was actually going to bring up what hitman brought up. I don't believe I will be trying the game out any time soon, I'll with BF2 and RO. Also, Fry's has the game for $39.99 I believe.

EA Games has really "screwed the pooch" with every release since C&C Generals....the games look good, but are extremely buggy, and their customer support is about as good as AOL's
