In Game Settings
Turn settings to native reso, or lower and set setting as Advanced then put all low and off.
Turn sound down from hi-fi to headset (you will have to do this each time you load the game) BC2 uses a lot CPU for sound.

"settings.ini" file @ My Documents>BFBC2 folder -(best to backup the whole BFBC2 folder 1st) sweat.gif
Change sound quality to low (also changeable in game menu but resets every time to hifi)
i would only do this if you are not using a dedicated soundcard, which i assume most are now tongue.gif

Change DXVersion-auto to 9 to force DX9  eg: DXVersion=9
here also about the same.
if your system can support dx11, by all means use it.
i tried with dx9 and didnt notice any big increase in fps.
but i did notice flickering when at medium with dx9, apparently for some ppl with dx9 u have to set it high to avoid flickering.
so it was back to dx11 for me.

okies, will try to set to dx9 tonight. Currently using 1920x1200 and custom setting, all high except no AA / AF option. can play without lag in sp and mp but now keep CTD when joining MP server  rclxub.gif
yeah, i experience 100% CTD when I tried to join MP server since yesterday evening. Yesterday morning still ok because I played from 6am - 3pm (not even 1 CTD). This morning still the same, crash when joining MP server.

Weird thing is some server I joined (just for testing but the ping >200ms), I dont have any CTD when joining(however got kicked out because PB init failure, will try to update PB tonight) , but when I joined to local servers(<100ms ping), its like 100% CTD.

Thanks guys. sweat.gif

4850 can play all high at that res? wat framerate u getting?
my friend's 4870 can barely play 1280x1024 at medium.

as for ctd, well which local servers? fragnetics?
its a long shot but i would try putting the settings all at medium first or even low just to test if theres no more ctd when joining.

You're right.. I agree with you  notworthy.gif
ATI i believe is for more advance users, who don't mind taking hassles to tweak and all those crap. For newbies like me will prefer less hassle. 

Nvidia = less trouble.

I'm using res 1280x1024.
No problem for you during multiplayer? Can i ask whats your video settings?
*
currently its this, so can see wat it looks like with some eye candy tongue.gif
getting on avg around 60-80 fps, so ok la.
i only had ctd one time only, that was a few days ago.
also go into ur ati ccc, and edit a few settings.
set most to application settings, use in between performance and quality, and turn off AI.
later on will definitely increase the res and drop the quality to maintain the same fps.

Are you using ATI? I'm using a 5870, before had a lot of flickering, long loading up to 30+ sec. what i did was install the current 10.4, do not let application control setting at your CCC. Put in your fav setting at config file.. wala! All maxed out setting cept i put x2 on MSAA.. i don't see any difference going higher.. soo meh  blush.gif
if u dont use the application settings, it means it uses whatever is set in CCC.
since BC2 is the application, and u dont use application settings, maybe thats why u dont see much difference going higher.
