1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

What really needs to be added is a column in the browser to sort by MAP size, not just player count. I hate wasting my time looking for a 16 or 32 player map, and finding 200 16 player servers running 64 player maps.

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

MAKE A DELAY FROM CHANGING FROM AND TO ALL PLAYER STANCES (STANDING // CROUCHING // PRONING)

BECAUSE THE ABILITY TO EXPLOIT INFANTRY MOVEMENT IS STILL POSSIBLE.

-------------------------------

here is a list of the six possible movement patterns which in combination can be used;

prone to crouch
prone to stand
crouch to prone
crouch to stand
stand to prone
stand to crouch

NOT all of these have delays implemented within them, so if you know which ones do not, then you can still exploit your movement excessively.

----------------------------------------

SIMPLY ADDING A FIRING DELAY UPON STANCE CHANGE IS NOT SUFFICIENT.

YOU HAVE ADDED "SOME" STANCE CHANGING DELAYS, BUT NOT ALL OF THE NECCESSARY ONES TO COMPLETELY REMOVE THE EXPLOITATIVE MOVEMENT.

PLEASE ADDRESS THIS, THANKS.

If that's all the juice a prone spamer can muster then I could live with that. :laugh:

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I installed the 1.4 beta 2 patch recently. I thought the original 1.4 was okay, since it fixed my only concern (game crashes). But now, with the beta 2 patch, my game wont even start. (full version) The game begins to start up where it should be showing the EA and DICE intros, but before it even gets to the EA part, it just shuts off and returns to my desktop.


everything about the game worked great with the first 1.4 beta (full), and the same with the 1.3 patch, except with 1.3 the game crashed every other time, which was fixed in the first beta.

my game crashes when its at the black screen when loading up the game..theres no need to post my comp specs it works fine on 1.3 ..i used a full patch too.

not the only one

Re: 1.4 Feedback and Error Reporting

I used the 1.4 beta 2 incremental patch to patch my 1.3 install, shouldn't you only use the 1.4 full patch if you have BF2/BF2 S:F retail installed?

Feedback on No Vehicles Server Option

You need buggies / jeeps / etc. This options just does not work on most maps. For example, Wake. Imagine a team has 2 flags, the north-west and north-east ones. The only place they can attack next is the airfield. People defending the airfield simply don't bother to walk all that way to attack the north-east flag so just lie in wait. People attacking the airfield rarely get half way. Thus, the game just "stops" as attackers keep getting wasted while defenders just hang around taking out attackers.

This happens on a lot of the larger maps where the game just stops, people just can't be bothered to walk long distances when it's almost inevitable they'll be killed as soon as they get close to a flag.

If buggies were available then there'd be a chance to "break through" the lines of defence and take flags further away, the game would become much more dynamic instead of just stopping.

I would suggest that instead of no vehicles we have "no armor / APC's". I love the idea of no arty and no vehicles but as it stands it's (IMHO) unplayable.

IO will not take over jet and tank maps. This is only for 4 city maps. Get over it. To bad the people that asked for this mode are CS 1.6 skill less noobs that dont know how to use a tank or jet. They dindn't know what to ask EA dice in the first place. Better yet, if it stay like this, IO will only be use in 4 maps and the other server runing regular jet maps will not use IO. IO in big maps is retarded. :laugh:
This mode will be great for the Knife & Pistol servers out there. Is the only part of the community of bf2 I think will benefit of this mode.
