BF:Reinstalled on Vista and getting back part time

[Macaubre]

OK, reinstalled BF2142 on Vista 64 tonight. Its loading OK, and doesn't seem to freak out with Punkbuster.

However, mind, you, I made it so it run with administrator priviledges (I hate that part, but who cares). Now, I'm a n00b with that game; what should I look for when picking up a server to play on (and get points) and not get totally owned by l33t kidz with mouth foaming?

First, I would try the rank limited servers. There are one or two of them out there. I feel its easier to learn the game with other people closer to your rank.

In the server browser, look for 'low ranks' or similiar.


Once I ranked myself off of that server, I moved on and spent time on 2-3 servers regularly. I particularly liked the Stargate Command server. SGC clan are a great bunch of guys. I had a lot of fun playing with them.

I just bought it the other day, first attempt at playing it caused punkbuster crashes and other errors

reinstalling it now and gonna try to figure it out
