I keep the command menu close to my movement keys (I use "V" for command an "C" for regular communication)
So I just point the nose where I want, and do air drops, UAV, etc. Then pull back, because pointing to the ground means you are accelerating |

Oh, yeah, the new choppers in BF2 are much easier to fly and hover around slowly.
But I wonder if human can do that while in a jet.....

I tried to keep the menu open while I make quick orders. I always end up crashing into a tree or something right after I close the menu. |

It's easy fighting and being the commander when your squadleaders tell you where to place everything and you just have to press "Page Up" |

IC﹐ so a commander doesn't have to locate where the squad leader on the map before you drop the artilitary or supply or UAV?

Anyone running it with a 9800 pro? What settings and resolution are you running
I have a 9600 np and running it at low settings. I might go pick up a sapphire 9800 pro for $176 at ncix. I know the 6600 is newer and better but from what I read the difference isn't that big.

I have the ATI 9800 Pro (256-Bit) and I run on mostly medium and low details. (I have an old CPU and MoBo.) I get decent fps in the demo. AA/AF off. My CPU, Mobo, and RAM (512MB) are slowing me down.

My server is now running the retail game, 64 players. It's new, so nobody plays on it yet.

Heh good job quasi. I was in the same situation as you. The installer said bottom left corner of the DVD box and later I found it in the damn manual.
Just picked up my pre-order copy at FS and the price is $59.99 right now. The guy just told me to go in tomorrow and they'll refund me back the difference
