....Do you have any virtual cd/dvd rom drives active ie Alcohol 120 or Daemon Tools? I know this could be an issue with copy protection of late.

I had Alcohol 120 - first disabled it - then uninstalled it.
Did not work.
But thanks anyway

i think that was only the BF2 Demo server coz i couldnt join it and played on the SAIX server mostly, had no issues with lag this time aroud... maybe the server was finetuned coz it was smooth as silk and riding shotgun in a blackhawk was awesome... minigun galore until you get shot down and the tutorial only told me the parachute key is "9" when i splat the ground. ouch.

great fun though. :)

it doesn't have a Co-Op mode.

True, and annoying as hell. There are even pictures of the beta mode having a full load-out of co-op and single player options. Looks like it got dumped in the rush. Bummer.
However, I have read that if you start a single player game in the demo, and get others to connect using the ip of the "server" you create, it works. Not tried it myself yet...

Just to add - I have been on the sgs servers and I have iBurst. There are times when I can get a good half hour or so, but really, I'm fighting lag way more than the enemy. It is total arse. I want to hurt someone. It seems like a great game.

Nope, since the EA account servers are in the US. However the head admin @ SGS is talking to Telkom about capped users being allowed to play.
 
bandwith is still bandwith regardless of were when and what you play?
If you past your cap, you pay more
you under your cap, you still pay!
my ea account is giranmoo2, i play nfsu2 and battlefield 2;)
 
i agree lol

if you pay for 3 gigs and use only one the next month you should have 5 gigs but not in south africa

i say everyone should just download as much crap on the last every month run their accounts to like 9 10 gigs

i think if we could organise 40000 odd ppl to do it it would work lol
