Woops. Looks like they closed the leak.
Ah well.

Say! looks like someone put it up to putfile.

Thanks mr anonymous image-sharer...but now I have traced back the leaker using my CIA connections. It was clearly some disgruntled EA dev, getting revenge from inside his cell, where he sits shackled to his desk.

I see they will change some of the AWARD CRITERIA?! I wonder which ones and to what...

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

I think I'm gonna sticky this one and take down my rumor thread. Better info in this one and a whole lot less bickering about the squadhoppin nerf.

- Fixed repairing hud for the engineer when in a vehicle

Thank you!
That was an annoyance what was buggin me. Especially when you're parking next to an asset and can't tell how close you are to fixing it. I do wonder what it's going to do when you're close enough to repair more than one asset at a time tho.

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

I'm not looking forward to my first mid air collision with a humvee though

true, i never thought of that, i have hit the UAV a couple of times from hard banking in the jets and that humiliating enough but to hit a jeep parachuting through the air? that god to be the most embarrasing thing ever

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

Whatever happened to being able to pick up mines and claymores? It was supposed to be in the 1.2 patch but they delayed it cuz it wasn't ready.. I haven't heard anything on it since.

I was wondering that same thing too. We were talking about that in the office here. What ever happened to it? Turn FF back on with 5 claymores!

Brings new meaning to the term "anti-aircraft vehicle" doesn't it?

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

Great! so no squads hopping!
I like the private messages feature.

It is always nice to have new features in a patch rather than just adding/removing bugs :)

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

I just noticed something else too...

Looks like solo choppers are doomed post 1.3

- Fixed bug where helicopters abandoned in the air would continue flying.

Abandoned... as in no pilot. Looks like you might fall outta the sky like a rock if you try to switch seats post 1.3.

Just speculation, ofcource, but it's contervertial enough to stir up some more shi... um, I mean lead to rational discussion.

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

They tried to stop the seat switching in BFV also. Remember in BFV when you swapped seats you could fire A2A. What they did was make the cobra, more unstable. However if you were high enough there was still plenty of time to seat switch, fire the AA and switch back and recover the heli.

I bet the same will be true in BF2. At the right altitude you still will be able to seat switch guide the missile and switch back to recover.

Re: Community Update - 4/25/06

Ok thats all cute and all but where is.....

1. J10 balance issue (Chinese maps are ridiculous)
2. Tiger HAP flare issue (flares dont work, literally)
3. Eurofighter rudder issue (goes off to the right)
3. Better menu interface (nothing like getting a 15 second pause)

?

Where are these fixes?
