What're your full system specs? Try adding /nomovies as a switch in the "target" line of a shortcut that points directly to the battlefront.exe Do you have anything running in the background that might lead to this? I'd say call tech suppo...  [Read More]

The new patch should ameliorate some of these problems. I often destroy repair/heal/ammo droids that I have no intention of using. One of the first things I do at the last few CPs is destroy the droids....  [Read More]

Does this occur in other games? nForce2 audio (Soundstorm I'm assuming) gets processed on the Southbridge (black chip near the PCI slots) and it could be overheating. You could try lowering hardware sound acceleration in dxdiag. Or the southbridge ma...  [Read More]

There are two PS2 patches out and one XBox patch. I don't exactly know much more about them because I am a PC guy but the consoles were patched before PC was. So wtf are you even talking about?...  [Read More]

Not too hard to be good :rolleyes: But rounds do last for fairly short periods. I wouldn't mind so much if I could stay on a server for a decent amount of time....  [Read More]

I don't have too much trouble with getting headshots but I have noticed that hitting the head doesn't really work. This is pretty typical of most games though. Just the way they hitboxes are scaled. Face-hit doesn't kill but does a lot of damage. Bra...  [Read More]

Well, most of the maps are outdoors and wide-open. They just have different structure. Kashyyyk islands (huts, hills, rivers) has varied terrain, Geonosis spire (big mountain, ships for the clones) is open with a large obstacle in the middle of the m...  [Read More]

Update to version 1.01, make sure your firewalls know that the game has changed (usually they require you to confirm that the new exe is still the one you want to allow traffic for) and then try again later. Perhaps Gamespy is just having trouble or...  [Read More]

What platform is this for? PS2? I have PC and I had this same problem the first day. But since then it's been fine. Try other servers and try without your firewall (quickly :D ) see if that helps....  [Read More]

No, two hits will destroy a speeder. But getting two to hit is very hard and usually takes a large chunk of your ammo. Missile tracking works great. No it doesn't. You must be insane if you think it works as well as it should. The missile's turn rat...  [Read More]

Yeah, they are hard to take down but that's because the missile tracking IS crap. They simply don't track. You have to get a full lock and lead the thing perfectly. Then you'll hit it ONLY if the speeder slows up and doesn't turn dramatically....  [Read More]

Instead of automatically select your profile, try removing the movies in the background by adding "/nomovies" instead of "+name [profile]" to the end of the target box. It sounds like the problem might be the Soundblaster 5.1. Tr...  [Read More]

But there's no reason to assume that the entire galaxy would be sent into a 'dark ages' simply because the old republic fell. One thing I noticed when re-watching Episode 4 lately. Ob-Wan says the time of the Old Republic was a "more elegant age...  [Read More]
