just recently began playing bf2 again. here’s a reminder…for setting up the dedicated server w/ bots you need at least patch 1.3+ (i believe). i used to know that years ago but forgot.

the game is not as cool as i remember it, that’s probably because i’ve played call of duty 4 since then. COD4 as of right now is the best FPS gameplay i’ve ever experienced. things that suck about the bf games: vehicle control, bot AI. very good stuff: squad/commander tactics.

ideally it would be great to play without bots, but you’d need at least 6vs6 to have a good game. 8v8 even better. bf2 is still a good game just suffers from being outdated. i haven’t tried the bf2 expansions yet nor bf2142.
