The one time I've played it since the patch, I haven't seen any lag. They say that 3rd party remote admin software might be to blame...

I just want to do the inf only shit. What gives with that?
 
R16 may have fixed this guys, see how it plays now, all servers are patched.

latest scoop is that it was the logs making it lag (writing reading during gameplay)
 
So.. this latest patch makes my game crash to a blinking white screen every 2 rounds and also jacked up all my sensitivity settings.

I guess I'll be taking a break from BC2 until the next patch and/or new drivers -_-

Also, I may be off and on because I am in the process of moving soon.
 
Moving sucks. So does BC2. At least that's what it's looking like. At least we don't have to play the console version. Apparently that REALLY sucks.
 
I'm going to go back to an older driver tonight and see if it works any better. I guess 5 hour loading times are better than random crashes. At least one is stable and expected :) .
