*Abramul just remembers he's had BF2 for about a year*
Eh, maybe I'll try joining the server.

EDIT: did you mean to link to the patch?

Download mirrors from TotalBF2.com. GS Server is up.

OMG about time. Hope everything is fixed this time, but I dont hold up much hope for some reason...

Cant wait to get back on the GS server. Hope its populated Friday as I'm having a session!

See you all soon.

Well im still CTD'ing and getting lost connection bollocks.

Oh and the red tag bug still lives.

.... you would do better swapping that piece of yankee hardware for a H&K quality product like the G36

But the patch is in, got it installed, now to find some time to play on the GS server
