Come get some you grunts on Battlefield 2142!

I am loving this game! The battlemechs are vicious and the weapons are a blast.

Woot!

har, accept my buddy invite and ill jump in whatever server you happen to be playing, and we'll squad up.

Ive got 9 or 10 unlocks so far, but I forget what rank that is.

No kidding Iceman.. Just let Xfier run when your PC starts, so we can see when you're on.. sheesh.

I know...I know...I just hate running apps in the background...but then again I think I have enough horsepower to run that many apps without issues now.

I havent played a game yet on my new machine where ive had issues with Xfire running in the background(and trillian too). Then again, even when I can run on high settings, I run on medium for performance

lol... Ya I run trillian and xfire along with the game i'm playing.

Ya, I run Trillian and Xfire and AVg in the background when I play, and don't have any issues. :p

How do you guys feel about the ads and stuff I've been hearing so much controversy about.

Seems like a lot of people don't like the idea of adware in their games, if that's what it is.

it hasnt proven to be a problem yet, but I seen the ads in Planetside and they werent terribly intrusive.

I doubt all the billboards of the game will ever be filled, and even if they are, perhaps some of them will provide interesting camoflauge.

Funny, but I never read them...I am usually hiding.

Oh...SM...I WILL load up Xfire.

Sharpster · Post by **Sharpster** » Wed Oct 25, 2006 1:04 pm

I've never read them either... I've scoped them to look for opponents.. but never actually read them... Hmm... *Note to self, prepare to read instead of shoot tonight.*

Oh...btw...I am MASTER Corporal Gold....only 200 points from Sergeant Silver.

And I did win quite a few battles last night as a commander. We had one map where the battle was lost by only 1 point. Loved it. Awesome battles.

Then last night as a squad leader I had Starmage and Sharp dropping off the overhead railway after spawning next to me. I like to snipe from up there and my whole squad would spawn and attack from above. Was sweet.
