How long does it take you guys to get into a game. Im wondering if my wait time is normal, usually takes me about 2 mins to get there sometimes a bit more..Normal??

connect to the EA server at login or connect to the server when you try to play online?
to get in the game about 30 sec to a minute.

yeah...geting into the game..log's in real fast to account..it just seems to take forever after i hit connect to server..

how much RAM??
when I went from 1GB to 2GB it decreased the wait greatly.

On my pre-hurricane computer it was taking me forever to get in. I was still loading up the new map and could hear everyone else on TS playing. On the new computer that you guys designed for me, I am usually the first in the game unless Toby is playing and he is usually a second or two ahead of me. My old pc had 512 ram, the new one has 2 gig.

Sling turn off the shaders and you will decrease your time substantially.

[LA_MERC_Andyconda]

Yeah the 2 gig thing for me sped me way up.

[LA_MERC_Andyconda]

I leave shaders on becuase it makes the game pretty

[LA_MERC_sLingbLade]

2 gig's ram for me...I will turn off the shaders and see if that helps
