BF2 newbie servers ?

m_stan · 2005-08-03 20:37:21

Any Oirish BF2 servers that welcome newbies (like me) ? Also, when trying to play online on some of the servers listed within the game, I get kicked for "no packet flow". Do I need to open some ports on my firewall or summit ? Thanks !

I'd be interested in knowing this too.
Had BF2 for a weeks or so now, and think I've sorted my skills enough on singleplayer mode... and am getting Broadbank next week!

Any tips / advise for a newbie on the online battlefield?

cheers...

Go onto a 64 man server, and join a squad.

I take it you know what class you wish to excel in at this stage?

Yeah, I think so...
Will take a bit of time adjusting to the frantic multiplayer mode no doubt...

I find engineer to be fun

It was interesting laming it up to the max last night as a passenger in a black hawk, continually repairing it, with a medic and support present too, as well as the guys manning the miniguns and pilot. It took the enemy bloody ages to kill us (this was one of the MEC maps, there were no attack choppers).

Sprinkling anti tank mines around the enemy bases from several hundred feet is amusing too.
