I would play it, if someone could tell me what to download, and step by step how to set it up and get it working.

I could download and install it in 1 try, took some time because of the copy pasting, but not that much.(Could DL install and play in about 30-35mins)

I play it when I wanna pretend how 133t my choppa skills are. No human is harmed during those sessions.

And given the fact that I can't play MP due to platform incompatibility (OSX), i play it more often now.

PRSP!

I have played hundreds of hours of PRSP 0.5, a dozen PRSP 0.6, and a handfull of PRSP 0.756. I've also played (SP & LAN Coop) "Mercenaries", "Hard Justice", and AIX. It's sad, but I've never played anything online. :(

Until recently, I had a really bad connection. It improved a few months back, but now that I am thinking of playing online, its getting bad again. I think it might be because of all the rain. The DSL has tons of errors even at the test jack at the NID. I heard from quite a few people, that when AT&T took over Bellsouth (here in south Florida), they started turning off all the old equipment _BEFORE_ replacing it with newer equipment. The overloaded system would then slowly degrade your connection speed unless you "Reboot" the modem. Since the lines are owned by AT&T, switching ISPs won't help.

I'm about to post in "General Discussions" about how I should approach playing online for the first time. I've never wanted to play anything online because of all the obnoxious idiots out there, but this game is supposedly much, much better than other games/mods.

I hope I will be seeing some of you in the months to come. (Though for LAN and SP, I currently use the name DJ_or_Doc)

Would Co-Op be possible over Hamachi?

I have played PR SP. I used to play it as a religion.

I got really bored of it though. The AI lacks. Most of the soldiers stand around at spawn doing nothing.

Am I doing something wrong?

I used the tool to 'up' the AI level - it works but it doesn't mean that the teams will ever move anywhere to do anything even slightly significant.

I would love to know if I'm doing something wrong because otherwise I'd play it ALOT.

@ryan: The bots seem to hate humans more since 0.5, don't they? In 0.5 they would kinda listen to you. Get in. Move. Attack. Etc... Now, all they want to do is kill the enemy and cap whatever CP the the commander is targeting. REfusing an order and setting the proper Attack/Defened/Move/Cooperate command point means nothing to squad member anymore.

Medic? Hah! "Follow me"? Hahahaha!! Repairs? HAhahahHAAAhaha!!!

And forget about getting a driver or gunner in your vehicle. Bots avoid player vehicles like the plague.

Not only that, but it seems that enemy bots drop whatever they are targeting, and immediately turn to attack you (whom is further away, prone, and peeking around cover).

I used to fiddle around with the settings months ago, but I think I will start playing online instead. (If I can find a few undisturbed hours when family members aren't using the crappy internet connection.)

One of the main problems with SP bots is getting ammo imo. I've never seen a rifleman giving anyone anything. I've been healed, revived and repaired on the other hand. Whenever they are not in combat.

And i second that the AI acts quite unrealistic from time to time. You are in very good cover, noone could see you, shoot at an AI soldier, hit, but he turns around and instantly knows where you are, shoots at you and you are suppressed and forced to either spray and pray or retreat. Often. And on maps like fools road they can just see through the trees. You can be as well hidden as you want, they see you. even when you cant see them. Thats why i prefer playing maps like Jabal in SP, or city maps.

I forgot about ammo calls. I agree totally. In earlier PRSP versions, the enemy insurgents would throw ammo bags at you instead of shooting you sometimes. (I laughed and thought it was great) Part of the problem is the bag no longer provides ammo unless you throw it, but even when I tweaked the settings to get it to work like vanilla... They were more interested in attacking someone +500m away then they were in giving me ammo... or healing... or repairing. Well, if an engineer wanted a ride they would usually repair the vehicle and then stare at the pain to inspect it for scratches.

Unrealistic detection? How about playing Operation Ghost Train with bots. Advancing toward the Chinese base (alone, as the bots get distracted) takes forever with the new suppression effects.

I could have sworn that bots spawned on leader AND RP in PRSP 0.6, but now they seem to spawn on neither. I know leader spawn was removed from MP, but it should be put in SP since its the only way to get BF2 bots to crew a vehicle with you sometimes. I'll have to post about this in the SP forum, along with that RPs should give ammo... quickly.

I think they still spawn on SL. I dont often play as SL since i hate nothing more than all those stupid annoying commander orders i get every minute and i have to remove from the screen (i cant focus on fighting, its always "attack here" "attack there" "attack uncap"), and noone is listening to orders anyway in SP. However, i'm sure i saw soldiers appearing out of the nowhere in the battle, so i think SL spawn is still there.

And, while you're writing a post at the SP forums - when you spawn inside an APC and are the first one to spawn there (driver) and get out (no crewman), no AI will ever use this APC again for some reason.

Bots are dumb sometimes,they always were even in vbf2.My personnel favorite is when all the engineers take out their wrench's and group around below a smoking chopper flying over head :D

The only thing I'd like to see bots able to do is run.Games can be painfully slow at times while the bots walk from main to the next CP,also getting them to spawn at forward spawn points would be nice too.

Never found a reason to, as I have a good internet connection. In My Experience, Single player in any battlefield game is always infinitely inferior to Multi.

Cant say I played it. Maybe one or twice trying to pilot a chopper or jet?
