Today I decided to check the EA servers once again saw that they still all had only Karkland. So, after many months of Battlefield I have deleted the game from my Harddrive. Yes you heard right. Its time to move on as they say. Too many bugs with the new patch anyways. Its not to say that I didn't have fun while it lasted. I really enjoyed the game for the most part and had fun meeting and fighting with people across the globe even when those Spawn rapers, hackers and Cobra whores got to me it was still a blast. So I say thanks to one and all, its been a sweet ride. Whats next? Maybe Prince of Persia 3?? Take care all...... Maybe I'll see you in Battlefield 3???

Good bye but i have too say two things. First this is the only game i have never seen hackers in with the exclusion of stat padders which isn't actually hacking.

BUt if your stats have to say anything of your skill i can understand why the game would be so frustrating. Also you don't have to play on EA server their are many many ranks servers not hosted by EA and most of them play a variety of things. Though karkland and shaqri are defiantly the two favorites.

it looks like you are suffering the same SF stat problem asme but going by the stats you show now you aren't doing that much better than himin the stat department.

That's a shame. See If I had a good enough computer, I'd still play Duke Nukem 3D. Hell, I'd settle for anything. You're obviously spoiled for choice, (lucky...). I have encounted a hacker once and a statpadder once. You find assholes in any game, I find it fun to deal with them.
...Can I have your copy of BF2?

DUKE NUKEM use to rooooock . . .
My first pvp game . . only could play 2 on 2 since i only had a 28800 then a few months later got 56k modem..
But DUKE NUKEM use to rock and i never saw and hackers or cheats in that game .. I loved how you could make your own maps and use them .. I thought that game would never die because of this, you could always find new and better maps people had made.
again awesome game. . .

Why would you be mean to him?  There's absolutely no point.  God i hate the internet sometimes.  Think about it, what is bashing him for not being the best player ever going to accomplish?  Maybe he games for fun, instead of all day like the top ten.  Anyway, my point is that there is absolutely no reason to bash him when he's trying to be nice.

It's hard to spectate on BF2 and therefore you don't see the hacks. Trust me though, they're out there and they are being used.

REDTEAM, get in line. I asked first. I suppose you asked for SF first, so you win there.
DN did rock. I remember making my own maps with my mate. He had it, my computer, (my old one I'm talking about now,) couldn't take it. Not that my current one can but... y'know.

Im mean to him because who gives a rats ass if he decides to uninstall.  Why does he feel the need to let a whole bunch of perfect strangers know that hes not playing anymore?  This is along the lines of a retirement post and I cant stand them.

I love how everyone's just an asshole to this guy. I for one agree with his stance, however I enjoy it enough to keep playing. But then again, I can pilot a cobra pretty well and that keeps me from going mad in certain maps. So what if he's not all 1337 as the rest of you seem to pretend you are, games are meant to be enjoyed by people of any skill and level, and BF2 is not giving that experience to everyone.

And he uninstalled cause of the many reasons posted, not just cause EA servers had karkand. Which still says quite a bit about how EA is concerned about their servers. I say stop being little fan boys and stop defending BF2's bad coding and problems, accept that the game has some big defects, and let someone like odessaman leave with honor.

Oh and ionchild, please, PLEASE don't bash someone about how they suck at the game when it is clear from your stats you are a Karkand noob-toober, and a tank-whore (check out ionchild nick). I mean come on:
Armor  Time: 56:27:46 Kills: 5,537 Deaths: 848. Seriously, it's players like you that make other players want to quit.

Im free to state my opinion, sorry you dont like it. 

As for my stats, you are a complete moron.  I have almost 14000 total kills total only 1200 of which are from the M203.  Thats less than 10%, hardly a noob toober.  The fact you even suggest that is laughable.  Since you bring it up, lets look at your stats, shall we?  You've used the M203 for 23 hours and have 1047 kills while dying 921 times.  I have only used it for 13 hours , 10 hrs less than you, tallying 1247 kills while dying only 760 times.  Lets now add in the fact that I have approx 50 more hours played than you.  It now appears that you are more reliant and less efficient while using the grenade launcher than I am.  If you label me a noob toober, what are you?  Please, please, think before you type.  You are making yourself look really stupid here.

I have approx 240 hours play time and have used armor 55 hours.  Thats approx 23% of my total play time.  Hardly an armor whore.  The fact that I have so many kills shows Im efficeint.  Besides, contratry to what your simple mind thinks, armor is harder to use on city maps more so than any other type of map.  The fact that I am able to maintain that type of K/D ratio while primarly playing on city maps, should be complimented and not insulted as so many do on this forum.

Karkand is my favorite map, like lots of other players, because there are no air vehicles which IMO is more noob than anything else, given the AA is broken in this game.  Speaking of that, looks like you spend a lot of time flying a helicopter on Wake Island.  I ask you, whats more noob?  Flying a chopper, which you dont even appear to be good at, on Wake Island knowing that AA is a joke or driving armor in a city map?  I think its the former but everyone has their own opinion. 

Fact is, I am an extremely efficient player so stop hating and learn some skill/tactics.  I hope I have the privelage of making you quit one day.

(Sorry to derail the thread but I had to defend myself)

odessaman, I'm confused... you say EA servers only have Karkand? From what I see on their servers, they're all mixed maps. Can you clarify the point please
It's a shame you've decided to leave, I respect your decision and it is for you alone to decide. What I can't figure out is why you would let idiots get to you.... I change servers if there's a particular idiot, with or without his hack. Don't get me wrong, there's times when I've thought, 'stuff it', but I enjoy it too much, it is only a game.... Take a break, relax a while and I'm sure you'll enjoy it more.

There's been a few less than helpful replies, but that's just like being in the game ...c'mon, things can't be as bad as all that.

I'm pretty crappy at this game, but i won't stop playing for fun..... too many people tend to rely on stats, and true, it's part and parcel of the game, it doesn't mean that anyone's better than you (real life). It's just a game

I agree about the new patch, but there are fixes and they do work, I'm testament to that . Come back, I'll hold the door ajar for ya

well, I guess he wanted to share his thoughts with the community, which is ( at least in my mind ) exactly what forums are there for.

And why do you feel the need to let us ( another group of perfect strangers ) know what you think about his decision ?

IMHO, if you can't be bothered with his post, then don't answer to it....


anyway, be nice people. calling other forum members names  won't get you anywhere, except banned maybe...and you are certainly not helping your argument.

Actually, both of you look pretty damn stupid.  Him for calling you a "noob toober", you for being a complete dickhead to the OP.

But, I digress...

You know, I never said that I don't use the noob-toob myself... the only point was, I don't go around criticizing someone that decides they don't want to play anymore because of reasons like that and call him an idiot. I know what it takes to play this game, where everyone bunny hops and noob tubes. It's part of the game, but I don't use it religiously. In fact, Karkand is the only place where I find a need to use it. Everywhere else I try to snipe among other things.

Anyway, in conclusion, I'm sorry for calling you a noob-toober. You still, however, are a tank whore which hey, if it gets you efficient kills then go ahead with it. There's ways to deal with tanks which are more of a hassle than infantry, but hey, if everyone would spawn with anti-tank when there's a tank around maybe we could do something about it. Regardless, you were still a dickhead to odessaman and that's just not cool.

You obviously gave enough of one to feel the need to respond, even if it was to ridicule.  The guy was obviously a little frustrated at his situation.  Perhaps it would have been much better form to offer him some friendly suggestions on where he could play?

About stats, for the most part...they don’t tell the whole story because anyone can manipulate stats to make themselves look like “Death on a Cracker”.  Examples?

*  Jumping on a server and switching to the team that is winning.
*  Switching to the team that is winning in the middle of the game.
*  Logging off the server if the team looks like they are losing and jumping on a new server to make sure the old server doesn't count you as on, but lagging...thereby giving you the loss.
*  Jumping on a server, making 3 or 4 kills without dying and moving to another server before the odds of dying catch up.
*  Playing on a server that you Admin so you can manipulate the teams and dump people that are too good.
*  Only playing on your clan server or with people that you know.
*  Spawn camping
*  Whoring all vehicles
*  Never playing on an EA server w/ uncontrollable teammates and n00bs at every turn.
*  Jumping on an EA server with your clan buddies and pasting all the Brand N00bians.

I am sure there is more. 

The point is...many times, the players who make the greatest difference in a game, usually don't get the credit in points.  I can't tell you how many times I have lost games because too many people were obsessed with fluffing their kill ratios, but had no interest in DEFENDING the main base...or defending at ALL.
