"Right, BF2"

Considering getting this one, have a couple of questions first to ease my troubled mind.

Is it subscription based, like WoW?
Have they sorted out out that awful unwieldy menu system?
Does Xfire work with it yet?

Cheers

You can now, nashy baby

xfire has always worked fine for me if im joining people, provided that there is actually room in the server.

Ah, cheers Nash.
Sold.

You can see the server IP that the person is on in Xfire, you just can’t click “join game”. If you copy and paste the IP number into the chat window, and then type it into the IP address in BF2, everything is fine. It’s a little more trouble, but it doesn’t take much time. I understand they’re trying to fix that in the next Xfire release/BF2 patch anyway.

Get the IP of the server one of you is about to play on and give it to the other person?

So how do you locate mates playing then?
Me & monkey_man spent almost 10mins trying to get to the same game

The menu is pretty much fine all the time now thanks to the last patch, although you still can't join most games from xfire.

Well considering the 360 is more powerful than the best PC's around and everyone will be running it on the same hardware....

Yeah...

Notice the word 'if'?
