tE Battlefield 2142 Demo night

Postby roadrunner » Mon Oct 16, 2006 4:56 pm

It has been a while since we ran one so lets put the BF2142 demo thru it's paces.

As always we will use vent during the event.

My suggestion is this Sunday Oct 22 at 9:00PM EST but I am open for any suggestions.

Get the demo here

I downloaded it from fileplanet and the game crashes as soon as I start it. I also reinstalled Directx9 from the BF2142 website so i do think that's it.

I will be available at that time frame.
I intend on joining tE in Bf2142.
I will download the game.

Ok, download successful and no problems. My character name is Landain and I am logging into an online game right now. I wish I could still have the character I played in Beta. I had 9 unlocks then. drat!

Strange rangerr. I would guess BF2142 is resource hungry like BF2. BF2 had issues with some video cards. What do you have?

I have no idea. I bought the comp about 4 months ago and never changed/added to what was under the hood It. It is an Intel build from a local computer shop and it quite possibly may just have integrated graphics. I haven't had a problem with PS or WoW and can run them on pretty high graphic settings, so I decided to just not mess with it.

The game literally crashes right after I double click the icon.

Edit:I confirmed that I have only intergrated graphics on my computer.

Ok, so I've logged in several times and gotten 7 confirmed kills with 1 death. 7:1 kill ratio is more acceptable to me, but the only problem is that I can only remain connected for about 5-10 minutes. I am constantly being disconnected from the servers. I have not seen one game through to completion yet. I do enjoy seeing this new map, I was tiring of the Verdun map from Beta.

get the latest DirectX from here:

Mine would start to launch, the screen would go black, and then BOOM! back at the desktop.
