Sorry, Gfx-Freaks. This time it’s about sound. I really love Battlefield 2 and besides of the gameplay and graphics i felt in love with the sound they embedded in the game. And one special case was a small eye opener for me.
Why? Because they showed, that sound can be used to add a lot detail to your graphics in a very nice way. I’m talking about the flag poles. Please watch the movie and listen.
As you see there is no moving rope and also no *pinging* carabiner or stuff like that. But when you lay besides this flag, waiting that the point is captured for your team…you know, i just loved to hear this great sound. โฅ
At this point i want to share a Battlefield 2 Story with you. DON’T READ THIS if you’re just intersted in the tech stuff. This is personal and just for BF2 lovers.
It was very late and there was only 1 guy with me at the server on “Gulf of Oman”. First we fought only with knifes but then we had the idea to do a car race. How? First we grabbed two cars and i drove in front of him to “mark” our track. Then we placed the cars at the airfield of the MEC team. We both were standing outside of our cars, i trough a grenade, we both entered the cars and started when the grenade explode.
Since then i would love to have a meeting at an empty server. 4 cars. 2 guys in every car. Would be so awesome.
By the way, i played the demo of BF2 for at least 4-5 years. When i had the money and the PC to play it on my own machine i bought it. But it was so laggy that i changed back to the demo. Gulf of Oman was the greatest map ever for me.
I remember that our sound engeneer on Nomads put sounds on trees! I was buffled at first as well but then it was so obvious! In RL trees make awesome sounds! :D
Hehe i played Nomads a bit :)
Hmm, I remember some guy I was play with and do race, maybe that was you? :) I love BF2 Demo too – still play Gulf map ^^
Maybe it was :D Did we do a knife-only fight just before? Do you play the demo or the full version? I’ve noticed that the servers are down but there is this nice mod-project who made BF2 playable again.
Don’t remember – in BF was many knife battles :) But racing – that was brilliant idea :)
I play only demo version, even I installed it a month ago to check what’s up there but unfortunately servers are offline :( So remain only Single Player missions.
There is a BF2 project in net where u can download all BF2 – the said that DICE and EA abandoned this game and every one can play free. But this is too controversial for me.
I think the Bf2-Revive-Project works fine. You have to have BF2 but it makes some magic to make it playable again :)
