Ok, I am hoping most of your have your copies by now so we can play tonight. I am trying to spend a few hours getting used to the game and the feel of it. (Can you say UT2K4 is much more polished than BFV?)

For now, we are going to go with the server Druidpeak mentioned in the BFV game calendar section.

The info is:

IP: 24.207.0.251
Port: 14567

We start at 8pm EST

I am working on a backup server right now.

They seriously need a training level for the choppers and a bombing range for the jets to practice on.

Not a good sign. I couldn''t hit squat in BF1942. I''m just destined to be a grunt.

I''m not seeing a server at 38.114.3.20. Where are we playing?

I fired the game up for testing some settings and that Chopper kicked my ass. Is mouse and keyboard ok for flying that thing?

I''ve been able to fly the chopper with keyboard and mouse, but it takes some getting used to.

The ''flight of the valkyries'' blasting over the radio helps.

It may not be up until later, so we will go with Druid''s server like we originally planned.

Oh my god, I just played multiplayer on the Quan Tri map and the propaganda playing over the loudspeakers on that map is priceless.

Oh and by the way, I took a screen shot of my first game ever. Just to give you American GI''s something to ph3Ar

I think the game looks pretty good, Flux. Runs fine on my rig at medium settings -- Radeon 9000 pro AthlonXP 1600 512 DDR. I like it a lot better than BF1942, more cover. I find flying the choppers easier than the planes, but I crash both like it''s my job.

I be on a little later. As my copy of BFV sits on my desk at work taunting me to leave early.

Port setting on druidpeak''s server is wrong. should be 15567, the default.

I just got on the server and saw only SwampYankee. 3 minutes until the start, I am going in. If I am not back in 3 hours then mail this letter to my mother.......

Well, the main server is now full. The backup server is off line. Let''s find another Rat.

I vote we postpone the official day until GG gets the uber server up and running and then we can all bow down to our new lord and master as we all blow each other to smithereens in peace and quiet. Relatively speaking, of course.

Well, I was able to get on the main server and had a good ping....for one map. Next map, connection problems flash and I got booted.

I like the game a lot.

I''m having a blast. Is it just me or does the in-game server browser refuse to sort by ping? It also fails to tell me which server I have just left. The M-60 is stupid powerful. Otherwise, no gripes, having a blast and havent even played a map with aircraft yet

Yeah, it won''t sort by ping for me either.

M-60 rocks

I like that the M-60 doesn''t over heat. I really like the game. It can be very hard to spot someone...

I''ve been on some very laggy servers hope that gets fixed soon. My ping won''t sort. How can I tell what server I''m on once in?
