1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting:

Please reconsider 'infantry mode'. All that was needed was a mode that did the following:

• Replace Tanks/APCs spawns with Heavy Jeeps
• Replace AA vehicle spawns with Light Jeeps
• Remove Jets
• Replace Attack Helicopters spawns with Transport Helicopters (i.e. USMC Wake Island 2007 carrier would now have 3 Blackhawks)

That's it. Add this option for each map for whatever you want to call it and it would add new fun.

I think with all the changes made in the 'infantry mode' currently that its prone to major balance issues. Certain classes, like Medic, are godly while other classes like Engineer become useless.

Please reconsider 'infantry mode'.

We appreciate you releasing the patch to the public in this BETA. This shows that you are listening to our concerns.


To a solid 1.4 patch.

Harmor

Yeah, exactly as above. Why overcomplicate things by changing all these other variables in the game. Leave all that the way it is and just change the map spawns.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I think we should only report bugs that are "introduced" by the 1.4 patch. Reporting every bug that we've seen since day 1 will only create a massive list of things to fix that Dice has no hope of finishing.

How would we know a bug is not as a result of the 1.40 patch? Better to report all bugs than not report them at all?

With this logic we shouldn't report bugs like the Red Tag bug or enemy spotted looking like squad members.

thank the gods that feature is ingame
If DICE remove it because of this post I will help Blades kill you!

Its not a feature of the game its a bug. If it were an intended feature, then you would be able to drop single bombs all the time. The bombs are supposed to drop two at a time in the F35, F18, J10, MIG29, Eurofighter; 5 at a time in the F15, Su34 and Su30; and in pairs of twos in the A10, Su39 and Q5.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Sudel Tek, are you standing up from Prone while against a wall or corner?

There seems to be a little bit of "Dead" area along the walls where it is difficult to get moving from Prone.

Yeah I think so, but I think I remember it happening when I wasn't up against a wall or object, it would still happen. Most of the times though, yeah. New bug in 1.4? RTJ map bug?

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

For EA/DICE - Are you guys reading our posts in order to help you test the beta?

Found some more bugs/glitches:

- You can see enemy a little bit away the UAV's line of sight sometimes, probably has something to do with the mini-map, or map playing on.

- The hit indicator at times does not show when damaging an enemy through cracks in objects, like on the crashed aircraft in the building in Jalalabad. The enemy still gets damaged however.

- At times after standing from prone position, unable to sprint for a few seconds.

- Can't damage armor with AT in local co-op game with bots.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Salut!
Just got through pulling all the reports along with the videos and images from the list. Thank you guys!! This helps us a ton and please keep it rolling.

I am trolling as many forums as I can so please keep voicing your thoughts and providing bug data and feedback.

Fix the J-10 balance. It's ridiculous. Just make all the Jet's equal so skill gives the players advantage.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Here is a screenshot of the bug where the vehicle drop icon appears over a friendly soldier.

For the record, I see this bug a lot in 1.3

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

OK here is a really annoying one.....

I was trying to connect to a server my friend was playing in and while loading, it froze at around 62%, then crashed to desktop. SO i was like WTF. i reconnected, and when i joined in the server it kicked me out giving me this error message: This server only allows players with unmodified content to join. Revert your version of Battlefield 2 to the official version to join.

OOKKKAYYYY

I am 200% positive that I am running v1.4 BETA and so was the server. Now any RANKED server i try to join it gives me the same error message.

I had played in the RANKED servers the night before this happened and all was fine. I did not alter any of my "content" or whatever it is referring to, I'm just stuck here forced to rienstall and do a system restore.

That isnt a bug. If you go to rearm and collect ONE bomb, then drop it, then go back and collect two you can drop them 1 at a time. If that post made them 'fix' that, I will kill you.

Event - Commander spotting targets doesn't give their correct position (offset slightly), car-, artillery- and supplydrop doesn't hit where the commander places them, they also get offset slightly.

Whenever you go off the screen and the timer to punish appears if your in a plane with the shockpaddles as current weapon you wont die and the timer disappears, however if you go off the map completly the plane explodes, but still leaves some margin for exploits. I assume it will work inside vehicles aswell,

(i prefer to test bugs offline rather than get accussed of cheating as the Beta servers are ranked )

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

There's your problem. Never install the incremental after the full. Do a fresh install and then a full 1.4.
