Played a round of BF:V on a public server somewhere today - all vehicles
had been replaced by the scooter, all planes/helis were the large
unarmed american heli, all infantry kits had only booby traps, punji
sticks etc. - no offensive weaponry at all... funny as hell!

Went AWOL some time back due to work commitments.  Still take an occasional
glance at the newsgroup, but haven't had chance to play or post for far too
long.
Anyway, great to see some familiar names still active.  Got a few days off

Since i've updated BF Vietnam with the latest patch, i'm having trouble with
Punkbuster. Every time PB is sending a query, the game stalls and then i get
disconnected from the game. This is happening in both BF1942 and BF Vietnam.
I have re-installed the latest patches of BF1942 and ...

I have set up a dedicated server bfv 1.01 on one of my systems which seems
to run fine. People connect and play etc.

I don't know who hosts the Wake 24/7 game and can only hope he reads this
group.
Apparently, someone on my team decided to play around with someone on the
other team and ride a helo together. Well, I see an enemy helo and shot it

alas the end of the Fly Boys reign.................... lol

I don't want to start a huge debate here, but I'm dumping my Logitech
Extreme 3D Pro as it only lasts like two weeks before it wears out.
Anyone have *bad* experiences with the Saitek Evo?

Does anyone use a Joystick for flying and a drive wheel for driving vehicles

My husband and I are running BF on our home network and were wondering
if there is any way to use a headset/mic to talk to each other during
game play. If not within the game itself then maybe another program?
Can anybody suggest anything that we won't have to dial out to use?

I ordered a new video card this weekend, due to arrive on Th.
For those individuals with a Radeon 9800 pro video card:
1) What settings did you use upon installation of the card?
2) Which drivers did you use?  Catalyst 4.5 or Omega?
