It does need dual core... With F.E.A.R. and Quake 4 supporting it all the others need to now also.

Boohoo, Matt why do I always have to hear about your huge screen monitor issues? I'll trade you monitors and then you'll be happy.

The patch disabled jumping and shooting together, I like that. HAhahaha!

I think that patches should fix compatability issues and performance issues, not ingame things, unless there is a major glitch in the game (ie. walking through walls-kinda like in bf42 on berlin) the ingame stuff is what it is. deal with it. people will always find a way to do some weird thing that isnt normal...ooh well. get over it.

AMEN THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfectly put!! that is the one thing that is ticking me off about this. I read tips and tricks and point guides and when they change things everysecond its kind of pointless!! also makes the manual pointless too!!

Thing that gets me is that they keep churning out the expansions to a yet unfinished game. They have serious issues they need to iron out first before they try tkaing more money and introducing new problems. Once they get the red tag glitch worked out, they can think about expnsions. Once they are tested properly that is the time for release, no more of this sub-beta quality BS.

I would like to see them fix the lag issues with Special Forces. BF2 itself seems to run smoothly, however SF is so buggy on certain maps, Warlord for instance. I'll have a 20 ping and can't play the darn thing because of the lag. This game is by far the best that I have played and have been playing it longer than any game I have owned, but they need to support their product better by fixing these probelms in one fatal swoop, rather than a fix here and a fix there.

BTW...my in game name is Razorbacx, so if any of you see me make sure that you tell me that you belong to LR.
