I got on a spearhead server online for the first time Saturday night. I had
a blast, thought the first 2 hours we were playing the original 4 maps from MOH:AA. Eventually enough people participated ina vote to move us to the Berlin map. I played through the first half of the time allotment with no problems at all. Then suddenly my frame rate dropped to 7fps, which made the game unplayable. I died and started at the spawn point. I was playing the Axis side, and was fine until I got to the opening out of the Axis spawn area. I run windows 2000 SP3 (Saw the above post on SP3), 512MB PC800 Rambus, P41.7GHz, U160 10kRPM SCSI hard drive, and GeForce4 Ti 4200 w/ 128MB RAM. I ran fine for the rest of the Spearhead maps, except for one other one, which I am not sure which one it was, but I had a 7fps problem again. Things I noticed about spearhead:

1. V2 map, the metal catwalks outside tended to flicker, which they never did with the same setup on MOH:AA.
2. Besides most of the maps being user submitted, 2 of them were single player maps from MOH:AA converted to mulitplayer.
3. An advertisement for BF1942's first expansion pack already on the way in early 2003. (Back of CD Case)
4. After 1 hour of play I was already 1/3 of the way through single player.
5. I cant hold an active grenade and open a door anymore...blew myself up on the bridge map a few times trying to.
6. Not sure if it was a server mod since I have only played one online server for spearhead, but the stg44 only had 70 rounds plus a full clip...which got eaten up fast.
7. I miss the KAR98 sniper rifle from MOH:AA
8. I like bashing with regular weapons as well as the pistol
9. I like that breaking windows now removes the pane frames as well
