Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

its really lame how unbalanced and underdeveloped this game is, i mean, its ranked! i think once the game is tottally perfect (will that ever happen) they should reset the stats.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

I've watched the video in question with Colin Clarke, there was some talk about doing something about the pin-point accuracy of weapons when jumping to prone, they have several ideas and were going to try them out in the 1.4 open beta to see what people think, I don’t recall anything about limiting medic or support bags.

Hopefully since 1.4 is a beta we can talk them out of any changes the affect gameplay too much.

I saw the video as well did not notice Colin saying that but anything is possible.

It would be nice if they fix the current bugs and then add new features later.
But with 2142 comming out this is probably our last patch.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

Ok so we all have heard about the Medic/Support bag nerf coming supposedly.
Word is the classes will only be allowed to have 2 bags on the ground at a time..and the recharge to throw any more is going to be really long.
So basically what it means is no more bag spamming and bags will have to be thrown when really needed.
(also from what I hear, prone is getting a big nerf..no more insat proning..basically if you are going prone it wont be a jump down and revive/shoot thing..it will have to be a longer process)

I knwo the support guys wont care "to much" but I just wanted to open this thread so the Medic fan boys had a place to whine and explain how it sucks since no one will gets heals anymore cause they will need there packs for there own insta heals.

OMFG WAT DOES NERFED MEANN??? PLZ SOMEONE TELL MEEEHH.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

LOL, ok tell me which class is worse than assault. Everything assault can do some other class does is better. I play medic and frankly I dont give a crap if they do this because you know what, I will still have enough medic bags for me. Its you other characters who will feel the pain, not me.

Lets see:
Medic: Uh, doesn't have GL??? (not really a bad thing), no armor
Support: Not as good at long range
Sniper, not as good at anything but long range, no armor
Spec Ops: Not as good in CQC, has no armor
Engineer: Not nearly as good at medium-long range combat, no armor
AT: Not as good in medium and long range

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

Hey while they're at it they should just nerf every other useful feature in this game, then maybe we'll stop whining. . . They should just release an expansion pack called BF2N Battlefield 2 Nerfed.

the game is already known as nerffield

in that interview it appears they have taken notice of the fact the guns are nerfed really bad and are just generally **** to use, not going where u want them to e.t.c, thats all well and good fixing it in the new game but it would be nice to have it fixed in the current one.

and i cant believe noone mentioned A2A missiles being too ****ing easy for a nub to take a veteran down, the foreign numptys just sat there unable to think of any questions

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

I usually play as a medic because of the massive influx of nub snipers since the last couple of patches. It's frustrating walking around on Karkand and getting hit with body shots over and over again, bringing you down to 2 bars. That medic bag comes in handy a lot.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

ive seen that video yesterday and it doesnt say anything bout the medic/support thing. what it does talk about is going prone in 2142. i wont believe the changes until it is confirmed by EA

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

About the weapon accuracy decrease, if they don't includ a fix to that in the new patch people are going to start getting really ****ed, including me. There was nothing wong with the accuracy, and the decreased-accuracy-when-running feature taught noobs to fight, but now even prone it's hard to hit with normal assault guns, at medium range. I personally don't mind the medic/support bag thing, but all thi nerfing is getting on my nerves.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

They are going to Nerf something that encourages Teamplay yet they are hyping 2142 to benefit teamplay!? Hypocrits! Im a Medic, not a whore... made a guide to not whoring so no flames. Im always a SL and I play behind my squad. Why? so i can heal them while they are blasting the enemy and revive them if they go down, not running in front getting killed and wasting a spawn point! Now im going to have to whore a bag for myself instead of healing my squad. If this is true and goes in effect in 1.4, i think im gonna start to work for my other medals... i wasnt going to work on getting expert combats in any other class cause i dont like to play them as SL. Now that they may do this in 1.4, im gonna have to do something else to make BF2 enjoyable, maybe quit altogether and play PRMM all the time... Nice going Dice, intro something we didnt ask for

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

Well it's very good i already got my expert medic and first aid badges already, before they nerf the medic bags. Who asked for them to nerf medic bags? I don't recall anything. Might as well nerf the guns to shoot bb's since people were whining bullets do too much damage. Stupid EA, they can think of just about anything to make us ****ed at them and lose our faith in them.

They nerfed C4 just before i got expert explosives... so i had to go in a high points server and spend an hour getting it.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

EA is hypocritical. If anything, they need to boost the power/strength of a lot of things, and leave supply bags as they are. "The most intense Internet firefights ever!" Yeah not with the crappy pea-shooters that we call guns now. Don't do any more damage EA. If anything, the game was better left unpatched than it is now.

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

Healing points are hard enough to accumulate. Why make matters worse?

Re: The support/Medic bag nerf..let the whining begin.

How about they fix the ****ing shock paddles???? Is that so much to ask? Reverse the change they made to screw them up the way they did. And medic bags? Who the hell has complained about medic bags? Im glad medic bags are the way, its easy to get healed.
