New video with Colin Clarke the global community manager of DICE

[Dangerdog]

Our forum member Fyrstikk pointed out that on GZ.TV a video surfaced where you see Colin Clarke, the global community manager of DICE, talk about BF2 and BF2142. The video is 41 minutes in total. He is talking in front of an audience of clans as it seems. There is a lot about BF2142 in it but also some details about BF2 and patches. He speaks in english, but the page is not.

The link can be found on

http://bf2142.com/

The BF2 news breakdown is pretty much as follows:

The new 1.4 patch will be open beta, they've taken out the dolphin diving (again), the c4 chucking is also gone, fixed the Karkand exploit of being able to get inside the hotel, new map is being sponsored by gamespy is being touted as the new Karkand, it will be free and come with 1.4, the new gameplay mode of infantry only is being tested and might be released for the open beta test and the infantry only game mode boosts player hitpoints and removes all vehicles. He also hinted at taking away the pin-point accuracy of going prone with say a PKM, kind of vague at how they intend to deal with it.

Thanks to BF2142.com and Fyrstikk for the video link.

..............what could have possibly gone through your mind to think that that was either funny or warranted?

- is there a link i can actually download this at because when i try to skim through it the audio just cuts out, so streaming doesn't really work.

Re: New video with Colin Clarke the global community manager of DICE

new map is being sponsored by gamespy

What does that mean?

the infantry only game mode boosts player hitpoints and removes all vehicles.

Seems like infantry only should lower the hitpoints...thanks for giving us the info so we don't have to watch it all though!

I guess it means that gamespy is footing the bill for paying DICE to make the map.

Yeah, I don't know how raising the hitpoints would work, so a sniper would have to shoot three or four times to get a kill? He doesn't explain anything, just says the designer at DICE in Canada loves it. :\

Re: New video with Colin Clarke the global community manager of DICE

actually yea, now that i've actually read your summary what did he mean by C4 chucking being gone? Seems that C4 can't possibly be any more nerfed than it is.

I'm betting it won't be allowed on ranked servers.

What does that mean?

There will probably be a 'Gamespy' login on the map loading screen..and least I HOPE that's all we'll see

It's back again and it wasn't suppose to be, but like you said it's fairly nerfed. Some people have programmed their Logitech gaming keyboards with macros to do the dolphin diving thing and chuck C4 like hand grenades, somewhat with more reliability than those without, but anyways both will be gone with the next patch.
