If you are asked for evidence to support a claim you've made, you should either produce this evidence or concede the point until such time as you can produce this evidence. People who consistently ignore requests for evidence to support their claims (particularly contentious claims) are not looked ...

I think, given your blatant lying in this thread, I'm going to carry on being quite sure this claim you weren't intending to hijack is yet another lie. Blatant lying? People around here like to downplay the Q, it happens all the time, feel free to deny it. I don't actually disagree with the tech-Q ...

Are you sure? I was not aware that there are 7800xx cards that are AGP.

To be fair a 3000+ Athlon64 and a 6600GT should do fine in Battlefield 2 anyway barring any problems. I used to play it in 1024x768 resolution, on all-medium settings, with 4x antialiasing on a system almost identical to that and didn't get much slowdown (some, but you have to expect some in Battlef...

I suppose it never occured to you that the mechanics of someone's powers has all of jack shit to do with their actual quantification and whether or not they're more powerful in a versus debate, did it?

No, your point is that people do that because they consider it unrealistic for the Q to have those innate powers when they're actually doing it because it fits the available evidence. Also, last I checked nobody said they definitely use tech, it's a possible explanation. Now kindly show how innate ...

Oh right, so you trolled then, because you made a point of nothing of substance except to go "When Q is involved people stick head in ass!" without demonstrating this. I've already said that it wasn't my intention to hijack or troll, and if it came across like I was intentionally doing so...

Yes, poor baby, because this entire hijack is about the fact that you can't prove something so you bitch. For your information, my intention was not to hijack the thread. I simply wanted to point out that the definition of "unrealistic" is definitely franchise-dependant for a lot of peopl...

The worst thing is that you can't even say this is the result of unscientific training. I was trained as a historian (by far one of the furthest degrees from scientific you can get IMO) but even I know that if you see something happen, you can't call it "unrealistic." Christ! This is just...

Both of those compliment eachother very nicely, so I'd say you have no bottleneck worthy of mentioning right now. If you're asking which to upgrade, though, I'd say upgrade the graphics first.

Just felt a need to chime-in here. There definitely is bullet drop in Battlefield 2, but you only really notice it with sniper rifles, and even then when the target is almost out of your visual range.

Just horrible, but I have to wonder; Are those giant stargates that are built into the hull perhaps, making the ships a sort of remote aircraft carrier?

If so it's a neat idea, but I can't see how they'd power them.

I am sure most people won't be too worried if he ends up dead rather than captured.

I think that Battlefield 2 is one of the best shooters I've ever played online, especially since the new patch has gotten rid of a lot of the kiddie tactics like bunnyhopping. I've not gotten hold of Special Forces yet either, and still having tons of fun, but I definitely will be buying Euro Force ...
