      I know it's difficult-to-impossible to support all the possible configurations of the x86 platform. The number of different hardware and software setings makes PC gaming so different from console gaming. However, I am not aware of another game title (as popular as BF2) with so many inadequate patch releases.

        since the team that wrote the code for the original release has not been working on it the whole time there's bound to be conflicts with the more recent patching.

        they have said themselves that when bf2 released they were already working on bf2142. bottomline, they are sitting on a goldmine. :0)

          Inadequate is damn right. Before 1.21, I never had any ping issues, not I get disconnected at least once a day. Before 1.3, I never had a single ctd. Now it happens twice an hour! And the only way to play bf2 again is to restart my comp! For a game of this size and player base, this testing is completely laughable and embarassing.

            You seem to be here on a more regular basis, Shamus.

            Nice to see you around!

              God, why doesn't you people get, that you have to remove the cache folder inside your BF2 folder in your Documents?

                But people shouldn't HAVE to do that just to update and play their game properly.

                I spend half my time around here telling people to delete their cache and it's just crazy...

                  Hi Talus. You are correct. I have more time to post when the game doesn't work. :p

                  And I have cleared my cache folder. This is the first patch I have yet to get working properly for me in the 4 years the franchise has been out.

                    the only real issue I have with 1.3 is a mild higher ping and I CTD'ed onece. But I do not know if it was 1.3, or my overclocking because of the way it happened. I had OCed my RAM before to points where a game would just crash to desktop and thats it. I was playing, and had been for about an hour in bf2, it freezes for a moment and then CTD, but I think I booted it up again Im not sure. is that 1.3 or what?

                      my game has been getting CTD even before it can log in to account server, so i have been playing JointOps. I highly doubt i am going to buy another EA/DICE game for PC.

                        Well, so far..I have had ZERO issues with v1.3 (or any other patch for that matter) but TONS of people do and it seems even more so with v1.3

                          Yesterday was my first hard lock on this PC. The server i was playing on was warping all over the place with freezes/pauses. I got the "Your connection to the server has been lost" Error and my PC hard locked, This required a hard boot to clear.

                          Tryed 3 reinstalls with no joy, In the mean time i'm running 1.22 untile they fix this mess. This patch has the potential to damage data in a condition like this.

                          EA... If your listening... Please fix this mess.

                            I wish just one or two BF2 devs would take it into their own hands and give us a little info about what they are doing and if they are listening. I would expect a few of them are gamers and know what it feels like to get a crappy patch.
