Low settings sucks

I do, Sometimes I have to go down to 640*480 Res too. Stupid nVidia 6150...

Look like shite.

I play on everything high except textures which are at medium because if I put the textures to high vista will crash bf2.

Lol that looks awful, time to upgrade me things...

i play on low, but with Geometry at med, to see the locks

I feel your pain mate. It sucks, but the gameplay makes up for it

Not if you use the fixed exe.

I have to play on moderately low settings for PR. I'm not complaining, I can still play this awesome mod with 100% view distance.

One day, just one day, I'll get my uber graphics and drool over PR. Till then, I look at perty pictures you guys post, the appetizers. *nom nom*

I used to til 4 weeks ago when I upgraded my PC, now I can run max resolution with max settings, except with Lighting on Medium since having it on High produces that liquid texture bug.

I spent around 200 euros which I was saving since last October, so it isn't that expensive

Im playing with 1024*768 and the top 3 + view distance on higg, the rest is on low and it actually looks quite good.

I play medium low, I used to play on higher, but the ol' gal is getting old

I've played on lowest settings but atm on my own system i'm running highest.

Reminds me to reinstall nhancer to create a custom BF2 profile and force higher driver settings, extra AA works especially well.

1GB RAM and 256Mb Geforce!

I play on LOW settings, and I got to tell you that its really not that bad, and sometimes I think its almost the same as high settings, its just that with high settings the textures looks more sharp and detailed, something I think is actually making the gameplay more diffcult AND since the BF2 engine is pretty old high settings doesnt look so good anymore if you compare with newer games so it doesnt really matter. The gameplay is making the whole game worth playing. What you want to aim for is better FPS tho. If you play on low settings, atleast put dynamic shadows and light on low, if you dont have that on the game looks pretty crappy **** cprappydie. But I got to admit that I would really like to play a game like PR in a new generation graphic witt 100fps.

dude i feel ure pain i have a .. let me check ... AMD 64 3200+ 1 GB ram radeon 9600SE and i have to play on low but i tweak the settings to medium on the geomitry and some other things to get a decent pov yet my long range view is often "what the FK is that" lookin at 2 blocks in the distance.

I'm have resolution up to the highest i can set it and geometry up to high, but besides that i have everything to low or off.

I h aven't played in so long its not funny -_- it sucks hard core

Heh, used too, but not any more

In some cases low texture and shadow settings could be an advantage, as long as you kept geometry and viewdistance high. For example you could more easily distinguish the enemy from the surroundings if there was less detail.

I remember in the Insurgency mod for Source I was playing it at minimum settings on a friend's old laptop and various objects weren't being drawn at a distance or even at all so I could actually see enemies behind cover that people on high settings couldn't see.

I play everything maxed out with 19200 1200 resolution. Thank you i7!!!

^Core i7 is certainly great regardless of it's cost, however I really doubt it makes any difference to PR compared to any Core 2 CPU.

IMO to run the BF2 engine smoothly it's more important to have a decent GPU and at least 2gb of ram.

Generally I'd thank any hardware newer then 2004.
