i havent had any problems, i think mainly the people who have problems are the people who have tweaked their files so they will hopefully get better performance (e.g. renaming "bf2.exe" to like "bf21.exe" or whatever) so just make sure you havent done any tweaking like this, and if you have then just un-tweak them

When the first patches came out I used to spend a LOT of my free time in the support forum helping peope with problems. There were interesting days when we were all discovering the quirkes of BF2 and coming up with solutions faster than EA support.
Now though, after helping 4 people in under 2 hours to get the 1.3 patch working, only to discover that *all* had renamed the bf2.exe file to something else (to increase game speed), I've decided to let people figure it out for themselves.
Some people do have 100% real problems with the game and the patches but a large % of people, IMHO, have problems with their systems or modified files.

If I could play on ranked servers w/o this patch I would, but since EA is forcing us to....
Basically, if you want your stats to count then download and install it so you can play on ranked servers. If I didn't care about that stuff, I'd stick with v1.22 and play unranked from now on.
The majority of people are NOT having issues with the patch if that's what you're worried about.
