:Yikes:

It's 560Mb

I know that with BB people are less worried about file sizes but with something that big a little warning would be nice please ;)

Warning??? In IE it tells you the filesize before downloading ;)

And anyway, with the way how big stuff is nowadays and my love of hdtv, thats just a modest filesize :p: (take note isps!!!).

Best game demo in years, can't wait for the full version at the end of the month. I was expecting to be disappointed but it's fantastic.

I have it downloading now, from all the wow responses on my MSN to those who have already downloaded it, sounds like a fun game.

Can anyone tell me with my PC specs should it run on my pc ( specs in sig )

Straffing dosent work correctly (you can't go forward and stafe at the same time) and the control setup is the worst i've EVER seen an absolute nightmare if you use something like a Nostromo N52, there are a number of glitches as well, i've been stuck going in a particular direction and its juddery one minute then smooth the next.

When it does work it looks good - but - it not really playable for me at the moment.

You can't *sprint* and strafe, if thats what you mean. You should be able to run and strafe.

512mb = lots of disk swapping.

For all you ATi owners out there - goto Catalyst 5.6 - this solved ALL my graphical problems (was using 5.2).

Oh and i managed to fiddle the controls.con file (eventually) to get it to accept the keys that i wanted to play with - still a crap control screen though.

There is a very helpful and informative tweak guide as well over at http://www.tweakguides.com/BF2_1.html.

For some reason the game has started locking up on the menu screen (server browser)
