Noob needs help
kboucher:
Hi Guys,
First do we have any girls that play these games or are registered (just wondering)?
Any how to my questions for some much needed help: I just started playing BF2 this week and I really love it but am not sure about some of the operations and different functions.
1. I D/L TS3 but have no idea how to use it or get it running in the game, I do have a headset with mic, but any help would be appreciated setting it up and you can call me.
2. In doing a little reading I found out you can spot an enemy for others which I love to do so Recon works great for me. A few questions I have on spotting - How long does the spotted person stay highlighted before you have to hit spot again? - Do they know you have put the spot on them when killed? - Do you need to spot enemy even if you have highlighted them with the Ball? - Can you spot someone without using your scope?
3. What is the best way to help the team being a Recon person? - I have been trying to play by moving around to different vantage points and spot for my team and sometimes take a shot if it is clean.
4. How do you find and invite Friends? How do I hook up with you guys in game to play and what mode do you play.
Sorry if these are dumb questions, but I have a hugh collection of PC games and have only played them as single player and have just in the last month or so been playing MP as my 12yr grandson got me going. He has been playing under my Avatar and built it up (good/thing bad/thing) people think I am good but when I take over they say WOW you suck how did you get your ranking..hehe. I am getting better but really want to play team mode as run and gun is not my thing so any help and patients would be appreciated.
Thanks

In upper left hand corner of TS3, it says connections. Click that then click the connect button. Put this where it says server address 206.217.129.94:9989

For bad Company 2, the "Q" key is the one stop shopping center. It does everything depending on the need. As to spotting out, not sure how long it lasts... Long enough for your teammates to find them on their mini map for sure. We will gladly show you the ropes once we get your issues w/ teamspeak ironed out. Much easier to explain in voice coms, rather than trying to type it all out here.

Loaded question :D
The recon class is for beginners. But we were all there at some point, lol.
Generally, people playing recon are hiding out and no where near a flag (where conquest players need to be).
Don't worry about your kit right now. We'll get that sorted later.

You can add people to your friends list found ingame. On Bc2, I am using Major_Cubensis as my primary IGN. Send me a friend request, and you can connect to our server from there.
You can also search for the server through thte ingame search feature. Keep the criteria simple. Try 308 o/s If that does not work try 308 For game mode use conquest. Once you find our server, be sure to add it to your favorites.
Also just to clairify, you keep saying Bf2. Just to be clear, we are talking about BadCo2 right? You have Bc2 listed on your steam page, not Bf2.
As I posted elsewhere, we are best found ingame in the evenings. Get your TS figured out, and we'll cover everthing else as we go along.

Thanks so much and I now have my TS working, not sure what to do from here but I am on the server.

Glad you got the TS sorted. Yeah, Sundays are pretty spotty as far as people being around after start up. We got the servers populated and most are off doing "sunday stuff" now. I am sure a few of us will load back into Bc2 later in the afternoon. Hope to see ya then.
