Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

Nice to see they're not taking what the BF2 community thinks into consideration again.
This game just keeps getting worse:laugh:
Maybe it's a conspiracy to make the majority of the community to finally hate BF2 and move to BF2142 when it comes out:p

Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

Right...not really ever "squad hopped", but I have joined a squad and spawned on the SL in a chopper or jet a few times, it'll be a shame that this is now not possible.

Oh well. You know, even with all its faults I'd love to go back to the original version. Black Hawks are flying coffins on most maps with the lower hitpoints, and the miniguns were nerfed too much. You can't jump and prone to get through windows anymore on Warlord and other maps, which was important in some areas of the palace. Helicopters get totally nerfed, less rockets, shorter TV missile range, yet planes still rule the air and ground. C4 can no longer be chucked, but it wasn't the chucking that was the issue, yet how fast they could switch between chuck and detonate in a nanosecond, the list goes on etc etc.

That just sucks doesn't it? DICE will find any way to make the game slower than it already is. And they love doing it to us too, no matter what we want.

Thanks DICE, you have officially made the game less intense.

Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

the majority of players didnt ask for this to be removed, why the hell would they take something out that we dont want and not put things in that we do?

makes no sense

Haha its EA and DICE, were not talking about any sense here !

Sadly, it's 110% true, and EA/DICE don't even realize it.

EA/Dice probably sees this as a type of Exploit like when you could load up a transport chopper and fly flag to flag and cap them in micro seconds.

Well the pilots will just have to find a co-pilot before starting.
That would be no problem if all the smacktards waiting for planes to spawn 24/7 would accept to play co-pilot now and then instead of throwing themselves in front of starting jets...
Of couse the jet won't be a mobile Mach 3 spawnpoint for everyone anymore then.

Thanks DICE, you have officially made the game less intense.

"Less intense" means:
1. Reflexes will get less important (as this isn't UT or Quake)
2. Tactical planning will get more important (as this is the Battlefield series)

Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

Just like patches failed to kill bunnyhopping and dolphins, so it will fail to kill squadhopping for all.
Bf2 patches are just big fails.

Tactical planning goes out the window when some plane whores comes along and wipes your team out.

Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

You must make 2 mistakes before the enemy pilot can wipe out your whole team:
1. You didn't hide properly
2. Your pilot failed to keep the enemy pilot busy

And YES - sometimes plans fail! Then you have to adjust your plans and try again, instead of relying on a teleporter feature to take advantage of any lucky situation that arises suddenly.

Re: Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

lol seems to me like all the patches are doing is ruining the actual gameplay (which used to be quite good) and not actually fixing any of the games problems which is what a fkin patch is for ...
