Patch V1.3 at BFCON - squadhopping still removed

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

Of course 2142 is going to drain the majority of the community. It's the newest thing!

I predict that everyone under the age of 16 who plays is a sell already. So, there goes about 85% or so of the community. Then you have to factor in the older folks who will eventually go, "Eh... why the hell not?". There goes that portion of the community. Etc. etc.

Eventually BF2 will go the way of vietnam. Only a few loyal souls will still be playing it. I won't be one of them; GR:AW

Good job EA/DICE

And to you who don't like it, quit whining and learn how to adapt and overcome.

Well thats whats annoying the hell out of me i have no intentions of getting 2124 or any other game im mad on bf2 but it seems to me that its being nerfed stupid so people will leave it and move on to the next game. And all the noobs are saying its great well its great for them they arnt going to be playing it in 12 months time i proberly am.

Good job EA/DICE

I can learn and adapt but i think the reasoning for taking away squad hopping is fundamentally flawed.

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

All the people who are looking for Fast gameplay can move on to Quakewars or whatever other TDM game comes out.
All people who are looking for BF2 to get back to what the BF series gameplay is about REJOICE.

Why don't you go play Rainbox Six, SWAT or Ghost recon?

Hahaha, why don't YOU adapt and overcome instead of complaining about how the game is?

I have played those. But I don't like the Deathmatch game mode.
I like Conquest. Which is BF.
Those game are way to Sim'y. I like the 'arcadiness' that BF offers but I don't want it to turn into a twitch fest like Quake/UT.
BF was never about who can click what menu button the quickest.
It's about strategy and tactics on the playfield.

...i think the reasoning for taking away squad hopping is fundamentally flawed.

And you are entitled to that opinion.
However...the Anti-hoppers don't feel that way.
It's already been stated by Demize99 that squad-hopping (to the extent that it is now) was not meant to be used that way.
They are taking control of their product and returning it to align with their vision of gamplay.
You don't like it?? There are plenty of other games out there that fit your style.
Don't like hearing that? To Bad.
I'm the one who's getting tired of all you 'twitch' gamers turning BF into Quake.
Bf set itself apart by not having that kind of playstyle and I for one am glad EA/DICE is regaining control.

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

If you think well, then remeber the voice help when your first time playing bf2.

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

Idea maybe? Has it been done or considered before? Use the email account that is attached to your profile to send out questionaires as to what content you would like to see added or dropped? I feel this patch will ruin alot of the fast paced action. And it is partly to appease the crybabies that cant stand to get base raped. Server rules and admin can take care of that issue if they wish. Dropping jeeps is plain ridiculous. As one of the previous posters stated why add and delete content before even fixing the real issues with this game. They are simply pacifying the public trying to create newness in which they are miserably failing at. From the begining stages of this game they showed content in trailers which never showed up in the game and never discussed issue that they KNEW were there and have yet to fix. EA/Dice get it fixed you facist BASTARDS!

Once again the BF series is not all about fast paced action. You're playing the wrong game.

That's a ridiculous statement not to mention you are generalizing.
If you've read any of the hopping threads you would no that not many people were complaining about squad-hopping until recently.
It makes me think that EA/DICE were already working on this despite very little public demand.
Also goes along with the theory that they've had this 'fix' on the burner for a while.

EA/Dice get it fixed you facist BASTARDS!

What happened to "No EA/DICE Bashing"???

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

Your not actually asking for squad hopping to be removed your actually asking for the whole squad system to be removed from the sounds of it.

What I’m saying is if a squad comes at me and I kill 1 or 2 I want them out of the equation for that fight. If they just spawn back at that spot next to the squad leader yes it might get them into the fight but makes killing them only good for score monkeys.

So wave after wave of the same guys, great fun but for the more tactically astute a bit boring. I want to repel the squad not just re-kill over and over the same players at the same spot.

If you know you can be back in the fight who really cares if they get killed you don’t miss a thing your back good as new.


reminds me of a comedy sketch of 20 people getting out the one taxi because the other side is not in view….

so a squad leader can sit in a room and just pour out players.

Maybe you're playing the wrong game. This doesn't belong to you, me, or anyone else that plays, who are you to say what it is or isn't to anyone else.

It not a "fix" it's a game play chnge, and one that they could have made a long time ago if they really wanted it "fixed". And they should, as Sandsink put it, have fixed the bugs in the game long before catering to the kiddies.

What happened to "No EA/DICE Bashing"???

What happened to quality control?

Seriously, some of the bugs in this game lead me to believe that they didn't eveen have testers beyond

"ok, put the disk in"

"disk is in"

"did it install?"

"yes"

"Ok good, testing complete, see you guys next week"

No your playing the wrong game its been like that for nearly a year games evolve into different things all the time for example look at command & conquer i loved all those games upto C&C generals i baught the game the day it came out play it for a week and never played it again because i wasnt impressed about what it turned into. If you dont like this game the way it is why dont you go play somthing else ive been enjoying myself all the way through. Ive agreed with alot of the nerfs in the past and understood why they need to be implemented but this one just baffles me theres no need for it. Seriously ive only been in one bf2 clan and i only joined that recently ive got 7 months of squad hopping before that and its not just clans that do it its everyone youve got to be a bit slow not to figure out squad hopping in the first couple of hours of playing.

lmao thats sounds about right look at when they added wake i found the bug with the commaders assets in 20 minutes of playing thta map but they still managed to realse a map with a major bug in it.

welll... actually... no he isnt...
what about the speed of going into an enemy flag with ppl spawning killing everyone in sight? do u kill only one person from 30 to 30 seconds?

what about getting a jeep full of ppl and going into the middle of a fight? are u only taking one person at the time?

and what about jets????? are they now going at 10Km/h?

btw, its been like that since bf1942(except for the jets but old planes are fast too), have u been living under a rock?

actually i think you are in the wrong game buddy...

[whoosh]

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

I played on two different maps and two different servers today flying.

On both I had ground/armored targets showing up as hostile that were empty.

The apc near dalian plants airfield. and two aa sites on Wake. Also got plenty of negative points for "friendly" targets identified as enemy.

But lets not spend time fixing shlt like this.

Lets spend our time fixing something that nobody even asked for yeah....

Thats a great idea.

EA you are truly some stupid sobs
