Tip:

If you are getting the crash back to desktop problem, something you can try.

Just go into your BFBC2/DOCUMENTS and edit SPEAKERS from 0 to 2.
This fixed it for me, i just hope it last and the problem doesn’t start again, but so far so good.

Hello All,

This day has finally arrived.  Never mind BF3 never came to fruition, nor BF 1943 for the PC.  Well we have a new game to play (finally), new engine and most of what we loved about the franchise is in there.  Our clan just picked up copies last night and will be giving you our perspective as adult squad based players with an uber amount of hours playing the BF games.

In the meantime, wanted to share with you some intel I have been gathering.

There is a FOV patch coming out, but you CAN change this yourself.  The game defaults at 55, and I believe there is an upper cap of 200.  You can change the .ini file (note there is not a file extension .ini on the file though).  The lower number give you the tunnel vision effect, which I NEVER understood why games do that.  Match a persons normal FOV range in a game.  Why is that not obvious? (rant).

Here is what you need to know: [Source]

Vista and 7 users HAVE TO RUN the game as ADMIN. Right click shortcut to select that option.

Start up the game and try entering the Mp game..or at least get to the screen where it asks you for your code and cancel.

Try entering the single player game for a minute and then exit the whole game and recheck your “My Documents” for the bfbc2 folder . It is NOT in your game folder.

(please note the full games settings file does not say settings.ini >>just settings.)

This is what the “Settings” file content looks like:

[WindowSettings]
Width=1920
Height=1200
Fullscreen=true
RefreshRate=59.950001
VSync=false
[Sound]

VoipEnable=true
