Surely, there is only one???? I wasn't aware that there were any other than the SNAFU one... You mean other people play?

Not wishing to be too unhelpful -

Mornin' all,

As per previous posts, a few of us on here play BF2, and are using a server we lease from MPuk.

Server name: SNAFU_UK
Server IP: 85.236.101.15:16768
Slots: 40
Map Size: 64
Status: ranked
Max ping: 250

Tuesday: BF2
Thursday: BF2 SF
Sunday: BF2 or BF2 SF depending on the clan's choice.

Just wanted to say again, all are welcome to join in with us, we tend to play Tuesdays, Thursday and Sundays, kicking off 8pm, although it can be earlier, especially on Sundays.

Overall though, really enjoyed it and I finally got my Basic Transport Badge

Just itching to give it a go. Unfortunately some bloke named "Valentine" did something to upset the other half of the world, so I guess it'll have to wait until tomorrow after work...

You're more than welcome to play on our server - however clan membership has to be sponsored by an existing clan member. Play on the server and check out our clan site

Should be up for a bit of 1.2 action later, in her good books after yesterday (if the server has been updated and I don't have as much trouble with installing this patch as I did with 1.2!)

Server is up running BF2 (vanilla) on Karkland.

A few might be on tonight - not sure.

As for the patch, it is mandatory to play on ranked servers - MPuk have patched all the UK ones (they host - which includes the EA ones I believe) now!

New stuff in the patch includes :

- Heavy machine guns are now a lot more accurate at distance
- The sniper rifles are now actually useful & more accurate
- If you're in a plane / helo and hear a lock-on with a stinger, you are screwed, the missiles will follow you round like herpes.
- You can't jump and shoot at the same time
- You can re-load your weapon while sprinting
- The shockpaddles recharge when not in use
- Noob-tube grenades have reduced splash damage

I'm sure that vehicle ****** will be ecstatic about this patch

I wonder if, as the plane/tank and heli ****** KTDR suddenly decreases, that they will join us grunts having fun capping flags the hard (fun) way
