Battlefield Bad Company 2

I haven't been flying, by default its impossible, especially since BC2 doesn't detect the throttle on the stick.
And the sensitivity to the twist is reversed and slow, so I could never turn. Its not just reversed either, because even when I switch it around it in the config it does it opposite the way it should be, its just hard config like that.

But that mouse mode I posted shows you how to increase the sensitivity I think, but I aint tried it yet.

The other thing people are doing is binding "Enemy Spotted" or w/e to every key, including their fire key, (you can bind multiple actions to one key afaik).. So when you shot at people they get the little triangle over their head so others on your team can see them. I'll post it up later.

Well I guess that explains why no one flies around at all. POOPY!

Look at my stats I am hard-fucking-core (signature won't work for a hour I guess).


Check out our side by side stats Joe.

I think I'm the only one who opens up Eng and the Vehicle stuff first.. :D Even tho I always loved flying the most in DC, I think I'm really a tanker at heart, there is nothing like owning it up with a good gunner who gets out and repairs for you.

Yeah the flying is sporadic, but I do see people consistently using the drone. The Blackhawk seems utterly useless, the mini-guns seem like they should just mow people down but they never seem to actually kill anyone. I think they need to up the splash damage a little.

Joe will you send me a friend request - Klauso. I sent you one and some other Jomammas too ..... so not sure who is who.

I will, but I am plain old "Jomama".

Got my joystick set up but the flying in this game is fucked up (as you already stated Joe). Working through many issues with inverted axis etc. It seems that the UAV and the Heli are not effected the same by the "invert joystick axis" check box. So whenever I jump into a Heli I need to go into options and uncheck the button. Annoying - and yes the throttle isn't supported.

Fix I used for the twist being backwards.

or everyone with mirrored yaw controls.

first check to see which axis your contoller used for yaw (mine was y1)

The edit the air.dbx file in the ".my documents/bfbc2/input/" folder.

do a search for the appropriate axis (mine was IDA_Axis1Y)

then change the following line " 1 " to " -1 "


The problem was incredibly easy to solve, and DICE is showing a major lack of professionalism for not catching it minutes after it was reported in the beta.

Unlocked the red dot for the assault class yesterday - makes a world of difference.

Yesterday I had a few hours to play and log on... only to find "play now" isn't working because no games match my requirements. I switch to the server browser and find about 20 games total all with 400+ ping. So I figure there must be some type of update I am missing and go looking on EAs site. Nothing really about a update but some new maps being released - but they aren't really new maps they are just the same maps but they let you play more modes on them. Lame. Then I find a post about if you have the Steam version just close the program and open it - update will download. I have the DVD version so that won't work. Then I remember that when I installed the game it didn't make any shortcuts and I had to go hunting around to find the icon to launch the game. I find the folder and sure enough there is a "update.exe" application. Run it and I am good to go. I guess what I want to say is EA sucks for how this program is setup and it's like the Steam version isn't really Steam but the DVD version is a afterthought too. Uggg
