1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I've just had some absolutely hysterical gameplay on one of the 1.4 servers (just before they all vanished) for the first time since it came out (where I've had zero trouble bar a CTD or two). AT rockets were passing through EVERYTHING without exploding (buildings, ground etc), guns appeared rather useless as everyone was standing firing clip after clip into each other, I got stuck prone for about 30 seconds, round after round from a mounted tank gun were doing nothing, weapons seemed to have near infinite clips with no reload time...
Fun it was.

EDIT: right now... there are no servers! At all! Spooky!

I highly encourage anyone who wants to see how badly broken the game can get to seek out your local 1.4 server. It's fun for about 10 minutes...

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I had the same ridiculous experience with 1.4 beta v2. Couldn't shoot anyone with handheld weapons, couldn't go prone. That's just great.

But no CTD and no "problem with your connection". You know, the normal 1.3 behavior. That could be clearing up, though I only played about 30 minutes.

But you still can't play the game if you can't shoot people. What on Earth is going on? I expect the 1.5 patch will just corrupt your hard drive and smoke your CPU. And BF2142 will burn your whole house down.

Specs: same AMD machine as the last guy. Shuttle Nforce2,Tyan 9800 Pro,2x512 MB Mushkin 3500 DDR @200 MHz, 2600+ Mobile XP CPU @1800 (stock). Whatever.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Where have all the beta servers gone? there's only two from the US on there right now. all the EA UK servers have disappeared.

Maybe it's a sign that the patch is going live soon. At least I hope it does.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

For the record, these problems were still occurring this morning on certain 1.4 beta 2 servers this morning. Basically, only vehicle-based damage took effect (no weapons incl. knife damage). And yes, only about 5 servers remain as 1.4 Beta2....

Wtf?

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I don't know if anyone else is still getting these issues, maybe it's just me, but I'll post them anyway.

CPU: Athlon XP 2400+
GPU: ATI Radeon 9550 128MB AGP 4x
RAM: 768MB RAM DDR266 Kingston Value
Soundcard: SB Live! X-Gamer 5.1
Patch Type: Full from 1.3 to 1.4 beta2

Event:
1. After getting disconnected from a server, the JOIN GAME browsing interface wont refresh anymore, it will always appears empty. I need to close BF2 and open it again to be able to update the server list.

2. In the FAVORITES tab, after pressing the REFRESH button a random number of times, all servers in the list will dissapear, and it's needed to close and open BF2 for they to re appear again, just like it happened in 1.3.

Source: JOIN GAME and FAVORITES tabs.
Reproduced Successfully? Yes
Evidence: I have no way to prove it, just by taking a video, but I've reproduced the errors 4 times.


PD. No CTD up to this point
PD2. Is there any US West Coast Server active?, the servers that this site put up are always empty, and my server list only shows 6 European Servers.

Ok I don't know what happened, I was just in the server:

1.4 BETA2 US:West 32 24/7 Jal

and everyone was having the same issues, it was crazy.

1. You couldn't kill anyone while using a kit, you needed to be inside a vehicle to be able to kill.
2. AT Mines would not detonate sometimes.
3. Grenades would never detonate, and dissapear from the ground.
4. You sometimes could not sprint, you needed to enter and exit a vehicle, and it worked again.
5. You couldn't go prone; like someone said, it was like if you had a spring in your butt hehe.
6. When you killed someone, his body will remain standing, until it vanished.
7. Anti Tank kit would not harm a tank.
8. Sometimes you would have infinite ammo, you didn't even need to reload, just keep shooting.

And maybe some other things I don't remember now, but what was all that about? It was unplayable.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

At the beginning of a round, some vehicles spawn already damaged to 'red' level.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

It's part of the game. WHy would anyone want this changed. I mean, in Counter Strike if you get shot with the AWP you pretty much die, you dont see them changing it. At this rate the game will stop being fun & competitive all together.:cry:

:laugh: ...you dont see them change anything...

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Been playing 5-6 hours per week with the 1.4 beta1 & beta2 and have had no CTD's nor server crashes.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

It's sad that the patch that has made the game crash almost every few rounds is the one that has been out twice as long as previous patches and NO hotfix.

EA really does suk.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I checked in today to see if EA had fixed the freakin patch yet.

I didn't want to install 1.4 after all the bad news about it.

I can't believe they haven't fixed this damn yet.

EA you truly do suk

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

OK TIME TO VENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the love of god get a new patch to fix the damn CTD, Yesterday I crashed 4 times. I goto join the game, It crashes, So then I goto join a new game I hit update servers and it crashes, Finally in a game LAGGING like no tomorrow which I never got in previous patches then shortly after I crash. So I talk to some friends and 8-10 people that I talk to crash atleast 2 times a day.

If you cant finish a game, If you cant patch a game, If we cant play the damn game why the hell did you release the damn game. I personally am looking at the next couple of patches as a benchmark to what 2142 is going to be like. From articles I have read that game is crashing already, Yes I know its a beta that people are testing but hell they couldnt get this piece of crap working and it is suppose to be a finished game.

The only game I have played from EA on my computers have been BF series, I dont know what their other games are like, Are the actually finished or ar they like this series.

Anyways FIX THE DAMN GAME PLEASE I PAY MY MONEY TO PLAY A DAMN GAME ATLEAST BE DECENT ENOUGHT TO FIX THE PROBLEMS WE ASK.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Hi

I've been playing 1.4 for a week now.
I have found no major problems with this and even the crash to desktop for me has been resolved.
The only thing I would mention is as commander on Infantry only maps it gives you the option to drop vehichles. This should be disabled as it doesn't work.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Also Road to Jalalabad seems grossy imbalanced towards the USA. I play on the Euro test server that runs Jalalabad 24/7(64 players). The USA has had atleast a twenty game win streak and usually wins about 90/100 games+. Im not sure wether it is because of player skill or map balancing issues but maybe its worth taking a look at.
