Re: Joystick, it's all down to your own tastes i believe. 50% use keyboard 50% use joystick. I use Joystick as i prefer it but each to there own. I use a M-soft Sidewinder.

Anyone on here use a PS2 pad when flying helis & planes?
I gave it a try the other day but wasn't any more successful than with Keyboard & mouse. Prob need to have a play with the sensitivity etc.

what's the best way to hover and land using a keyboard/mouse with a chopper?
Considering that staying in staying in one place (i.e. hovering) isn't a good idea what I do is just fly as fast as I can to where I want to land and when I'm close to it I suddenly pull the nose up and just press S. Doesn't matter how hard you land, as long as you land on the wheels there will be no damage to your chopper. Then just happily fly away and pick up the next batch of troops.

line yourself up with the helipad and hold your key that take the plane down, just as you come to the pad point the heli slightly upwards to slow it down or stop if needed, then hover over/land on the pad to get repaired/rearmed.
thats how i do it.

I have a Saitek Cyborg Evo and it does a grand job - however i rarely use it as i don't fly much lol but i use a mouse & keyboard for helis as i find it much easier

Having a problem connecting to BF2...
Both BF2 and SF won't start up when I try to log in from the game start... it's fine though if I start a game by selecting a server from Gamespy.
Is there anything I can trash to see if it'll 'reset' itself and magically sort this out?

You need to run fraps to get a screenshot at least till they fix this in the next patch

The way I've been taking Screenshots is to press printscreen like normal but copy and paste them into MS Paint.
The only downsides are that you can only take one screenie and I often forget to save them after I've finished playing!

Any news on this? Or is it just me?
I haven't been playing much recently but today the sound seemed to be skipping at times which has never happened before but I have been messing around with some defrag software so I'm thinking that could have done something but I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had the same problem before I reinstall.

I get it, the latest nvidia drivers improved it, but i think my GFX card is getting bit old now too.

I've been watching the overall leaderboard recently - quite a close fight! British versus American - then I noticed the (US) guy {TA}Firestorm hasn't played in weeks!! Maybe someone took him out?
