Renardin... They cant possibly be Max settings... You dont even have any antialiasing on. And double check the settings. I changed them, but for some reason BF2 didnt record my changes when I next ran the game, so I thought I was running max settings when I was still running medium.
I run all settings on the highest possible, except antialiasing which I think is on 4x, possibly 2x. I think my card could handle 6x just as well though, the only stuttering I get is when I fly over the map for the first time.

The game is very dependent on it's lighting system in order to look good. Turn off all of the lighting effects and it looks exactly like the original Battlefield game.
WHATEVER, FAGGOT

It's maximum settings. If you don't believe, go at the same place on the map. Make a screenshot. The only way to make this looks better is using an higher res. (like 1600*1200)
And yes, if you remove some lightning effects, you are in btf1942. I still prefer Renegade. C&C mode is cool, BTF is crap. But that's just my opinion.
Anyway I tested max graphics with 1600*1200 and HL2 is still superior to that. The trees still look bad.

It means that the game will look decent only if you turn all to max and have 1600*1200 as screen res. Even HL2 looks better on a 800*600.

my 6800 Gt works great with it but I still agree with JPNOD. It is bullshit that they would pull this crap in order to temp people into buying better cards. If you card can support HL2, Doom 3, etc, then this is complete bs, because the graphics look a hell of alot better in those games in my opinion. Not to mention, I had the most recent drivers installed and they wanted to reinstall them on me. Not to mention my drivers were 3rd party ones that were tweaked out so they perform a hell of a lot better but w/e. EA is gay and always Gay. They call themselves an Independent Company, what more can I say their. Yeah, EA is obvisously a Indpendent. (Sarcasm for those who didnt know)

The only reason the Ti cards dont like BF2, is because BF2 uses pixel shader 1.4, and the Ti cards use 1.3. If they changed it for 1.3 support, it would visually look the same, it would just take take the graphics card a few more passes to calculate it.
Sounds more to me like they're deliberately doing this for their partnership with nvidia, making people buy their cards. Even though the Ti cards are hell of a good cards and are perfectly capable in BF2.

So thats why I sucked at sniping. I tried the scope->shoot method, where I run around, see someone, scope and shoot them.
I've also become good at flying now, havent I RenX ;D
I really like the gameplay of it, and in my opinion, it looks good too.

that water looks like shit lol. I certainly expected to see much better graphics in it, and i really dont see much potential seeming its the exact same thing as bf1942, just with a tiny bit better graphics and new units and maps.
I hated the fact its always about flags, cant they find any way to make the game more fun lol?
