Hi all,

Installed the 1.1 patch when it first came out before EA gave the 'dont
install' warning. I couldn't be bothered uninstalling so played on
regardless. Installed the 1.2 patch right over the top when it came
out. Have experienced 1 second pauses every 5 to 10 seconds and rather
bad stuttering during heavy firefights since.

So, decided to uninstall the whole lot. Reinstalled and popped the 1.2
patch on and what do you know. A lot better. Very smooth now.

So if anyone has done the same as me and not unistalled the 1.1 patch
do it now. You might find your game runs alot smoother as a result.

I noticed the VOIP causes game lag.
dont think its my machine as TS works fine,
either a server thing or BF2 thing.
