If the game keeps crashing back to your desktop when trying to play on other online servers , then that means the other servers have not updated to .6 yet
you were correct sir. i thought my buddy had already installed the patch, but apparently he just downloaded it and changed the server name to show .6. it works great now. thanks a bunch.

i was extremely dissappointed this release, i felt it was very rushed, the new levels are extremely laggy so far, the night map is just too dark, you shouldnt have a night mission without night vision! i dont like stumbling aroudn in the dark, and if u just up the brightness and contrast it defeats the purpose of a night mission, the oil rig map is unescarily big as with urban siege, do we the carrier in that mission? not really, all they should of had was that one base. the new carrier is a giant lag causing wonder of lag they need to address performance in the next release, i dont care if they add more veichles(there a lot of them) and especially helicopters, no more are needed. i just want .7 to be much smoother playing.

So far Ive had no problems with the new maps (technically speaking) . Ive only had a chance to play a couple of them so far , oil rigs/urban siege . The oil rig map did get a little lagging , but only INSIDE the rig and not outside with the choppers , etc .
The new choppers do take some getting used to on the flying .
Going back for more fun ....

it gets kinda laggy on urban siege when people start moving the carrier around, so thats no good...
and i have a dedicated DC server running (with teamspeak), PM me if you are intested.

I have also had problems with the game crashing in the SAM launcher. At least I know I'm not the only one.

I know the Mobile gaskin launcher's radar dosen't work at all

Man even now (12AM PST) alot of sites are still being hammered. Bit Torrent is giving me better speeds than File Planet and File Front (Free accounts). With Bit Torrent I am getting a steady 200+ Kbps. Everywhere else was 20-40. I hit 20 and stayed there for like 10 on FP so I gave up on them. Arr, I want to play soo bad, lol.

I have problems with the whacked out fixed SAM launcher on el alamein. I do agree about the new helicopters those are so much FUN!!! I like the little mini guns on them. They seem kind of weak against armored vehicles though.

The little bird is overpowered against other flying aircraft...
It slaughteres hinds in seconds.. took me out in a full health mig with 1 quick pass.. and I'v unloaded the entire weapon system on the c-130 and gotten 2 engines smoking
Stingers and AA missles are the only effective weapons against it.. guns hardly do anything.. and take a gazelle up against a little bird and you're gonna die quick if the little bird pilot knows how to aim.. wheres your guns will basicly be shooting jelly beans at the little bird

I love .6 more than past versions. Mostly I love the small heli, I am pretty agile with it @ times and its great at picking off men and men in the coalition buggy (DPV or whatever they call them). I also think its fun as hell flying since its zippy. I also just played like 4hrs straight online and experienced zero probs or big lag.

i hate the small heli...i find them to be worthless and is not a big addition, but thats me, i figure for attack copters we have the apache and for transport we have the blackhawk, we dont really need anymore copters, but thats my opinion. i would have prefered they just worked on the coding a bit more instead of adding asmuch new stuff.
