i luvvv it

[Field]

shingle, awsome map, very balanced, superior sight distance, i like the look, its like a gibraltar, cerbere combo with a huge variety of areas. i picked up on it right away. it seems like its easier to shoot people from long distance with ARs caus of the sight distance. very nice

Wake Island, well i got my graphics on low and the trees got this real ugly funny thing going on where your a certain distance away and they look like friggin pieces of buildings or something, really really ugly vegetation suffers pretty bad from low graphics probly the most out of anything and this just brings it to light. I didnt really play this map much but i do like the idea of the titan in the middle and the bottom deck actually being accessible on foot.

omg omg omg IO PWNS. no stupid walker or dumb car whores causing any grief i had some really really good rounds infantry only the kills that i posted would not have been possible with walkers stomping around i was able to go wherever i wanted relative to enemies and do what i wanted.

the architecture of shingle makes walkers less potent and easier to kill but i feel it makes gibraltar a better map without them. I did learn though that if you are playing as PAC on camp without a walker at the start you CANNOT goof around in the beginning if you dont take a flag and gain a foothold on harbor or sneak around and take a flag in the back you-are-screwed EVEN more so than with vehicles because your only way out of the uncap is on foot and if you let EU start base raping, you will be hurting very badly, 1 round i played there were EU in the back, on the left, on the right throwing nades sniping vossing ganzing it was not pretty i only managed a 2kd or something really weak. but then after learning that i actually need to take charge and capture some points and control the map our team was winning pretty easily. i do notice for some reason the matches also seem to take a bit longer so you end up accumulating more points in the end.

What graphics card do you have there "omg omg" Captain?

[Lolyn]

I've played enough IO gibs to know the score before the patch, but yeah it's fun :P Try finding an IO belgrade server.... beautiful map if you can get around 40 people on it.

[Vegas]

I like the new map very much, Great teamplay on that map. Its hugh. It have lots of capping points, and the rounds arent over in seconds. A map that is your time worthy.

I know it wasn't addressed to me, but I'll respond anyways.

try setting geometry to max

also i wonder what this does

VideoSettings.setUseBloom 0

does it make the game even more shiney?

Max geometry on a Pentium D = lots of Titan lag. I'll try it on my other rig though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_bloom

It's supposed to, but I heard it doesn't do much.

[Dtneter]

oh so you mean sorta like this:

note this is a modified version of the Reflections mod for GTA SA normally the bloom is much more intense

[Vegas]

I actually have the same problem, And i have the NVIDEA 8800GT

[Fingulfin]

I have the same problems ( :( ) and I've got an OC'ed 8800GTS running everything Maxed out.

[TrooperJac]

Bloom makes the light appear more intense. It's basically a less intensive version of HDR. I always have it on because I like the enhanced contrast it gives. Mind you I have all my settings at maximum even on my lowly 7900GS.

[Yoster]

I never had any tree visuals accept on my alt soldier, where I have everything on low. Normally I am maxed out. I have an 8800GTS running Vista 64 bit. Shingle is a bit depressing, its just like a remix of Gib, which is just old as can be. I am loosing my intrest in Infantry maps.

I hate bloom. Even on my 8800 GT rig I have it off since I'd rather have an extra 1-2 FPS than everything bright and glowy.

[Ghiblian]

This is not a problem with the new maps. This happens occasionally when I think the graphics cache gets corrupted. It usually fixes itself when I restart. If you are having trouble, try deleting the cache in your profile folder (Documents/Battlefield 2142/mods/bf2142/cache)

Ghiblian, it IS a problem with Wake. This bug DOES happen on occasion on normal maps, but it ALWAYS happens on Wake.

Hmm... I'm not encountering this problem on Wake. I guess it's a problem with lower graphic settings?

[Field]

i have an idea, ghiblian buy a new computer and then send me your old PC via UPS so i can use your old computer that isnt as good as your new one

[Fingulfin]

No, people who are running maxed out (me) are having this problem too.

Pics or it didn't happen! :p

(no seriously, post pics)

[Shurikane]

Got the blocky trees bug too. Sapphire Radeon X1950 Pro, graphics all set to max with FSAA turned off.

[hooahguy]

funny- my graphics are at medium, and no blocky tress.....

[Sir. AAK625]

I have an nVidia 8800 GTX and no blocky trees. Interesting.

I had them in the very first version, though.

[TrooperJac]

I have my settings all maximum and the trees look fine on my display.

I have a 7900GS and run on Vista.

[iQu'e]

8800 GTS G92 and no blocky trees.

[Fito68]

Hmmm maybe its just for everyone who runs the game at low settings because i have everything set to max and i still get 100 FPS and BTW to the ppl in the Sir organization. all i am going to say is thank you i just wish i had my jet lol. but ya get the 98GTX SSC and your good

Oh and for everyone who runs at max my AA stops at 4 instead of 8 anyone else have this as well?

[Vegas]

I got everything maxed out and got blocky trees aswell. However i got this bug before, It can be fixed by reinstalling, But i cba only for some threes

[Chris--My--azz]

i have this problem the cause of it seems to be if i log out of my soldier and then back on to it after having played on a server

simly restart ur game ytoget rid of it

comprende?
