Manually Adding TeamPlayerGaming To Your Favorites

Replace (or add on to the end) everything after "FavoriteGames" on that line with the following code.

Code:

If you want to keep any current favorite servers that are not TPG, go to the end of the line, replace the semi-colon ( ; ) at the end of the line with a comma ( , ) and then paste in the above code (the ending semi colon is already there.).

If you want just the TPG server, highlight the whole "FavoriteGames" line (including the words "FavoriteGames") and paste this in its place.

Code:

FavoriteGames=543470382,1b6fec23-81ca-4daf-b559-13477c024d69,TeamPlayerGaming.com BF: BC2 Conquest/Rush Ranked;

This game is multi-CPU aware. Every indication from DICE is that if you don't have a multicore CPU (and they recommend quad core) your performance will suffer. Also, support for DX9 is limited and if you aren't running a DX10 GPU, and aren't running Vista or Win7, your experience will suffer. If you have any doubts that your rig will handle the game, pre-order from GameStop or Steam and get a public beta key.

To get XFire In-Game to work on DirectX 10/11 configs

On to my problem....for some reason single player dialogue is VERY low at some points...while in-game, I can hear their voices pretty well, but during cutscenes or if there is someone on the radio it goes quite. I turned up dialogue volume and changed my settings to Headphones...any ideas?

is there an option in the audio settings to turn down environmental/FX sounds and turn up voices?

Yes there is.

It's Sounds, Dialogue, and music...sounds is at .90, Dialogue is at 1.0, and music is at .70

Actually it sounds like everything is at a distance...

You are correct frag...something seems weird with that feature...it expects me to hear them using that feature from 300 feet away...not happening, I have NO idea why it does it on cutscenes.

Ok, went to PB site and manually updated PB and initialized the BF titles I have... PB kept pointing to my Beta Client.

All that said, I still get kicked from the game within moments due to PB Init Failure.

Anyone else experience this and find a fix? Been playing the game all day fine... and had no problems during Beta.
