Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

- Instaprone accuracy (even though accuracy seems lower, this method never fails) still is the more determining factor than skill in a close range firefight.

instaprone inaccuracy is the way to fix instaproners, most people wont be sitisfied with delays, instaprone/stand inaccuracy is the best way to fix instaproners and keep noobs happy.

- Make is so that support guys can only rearm you and themselves with a certain amount of nades (after that, you must wait to get more). This would cut back on nade spamming and increase gun use.

how bout instead just make grenades rearm slower, and only give two to every kit except assault.

- The J10 still has a huge advantage over the F-35B because of it's much smaller hitbox. J10s can easily shoot down F-35s, but not the other way around. Missiles almost never hit the J10 if it manages to turn away and release flares.

its a combination of the hitbox, the position of the heatsource, how aa missiles turn, and how they maintain track of thier target. i think aa missiles should turn harder based on the airframe they are turning on, that way we could make aa missiles loose track if a plane outturns one. aa missile should only track thier target, and or flares, otherwise they should fly away. aa missiles shoould also have an arm time where they shoot straight before engaging, that way aiming ahead of them would cause the missile to intercept.

the problem isnt just air to air, ground defences are simply incapable of defeating air, jets should be just as scared to be in enemy airspace as the defenders are of them.

- Netcode is still horrible for knives. Many times, you knife some guy a few times (any part of body) and they still don't die, just a puff of smoke appears, and it takes up to 4 hits to kill them.

a men, knifing should not be reduced to prone knifing.

- While zoomed in, sometimes it will just randomly unzoom, especially while sniping.

god i hate that one, same type of bug as the c4 detinator fritzing.

- Repair points are unusually hard to get and that 5 points in a round is very hard to get. It would be easier if, for example, commander assets gave more points for repairing them, tanks/helicopters repaired faster, and removing enemy mines gave you 1 point (this is not a problem in IO mode).

a men more repair points, a lil more heal points wouldnt hurt either, i mostly get revive points, nobody is smart enough to live.

- If you have the invisible cockpit view on when flying an aircraft or helicopter, and you switch to tv missiles or another view, it does not return you to it, but rather to the visible cockpit view.

i personally dont even think we should get external views, at least it should be a server option. but ya, keep the setting when changing from tv or do away with it all together.

1. After going prone, add a 2 second accuracy reduction and increase in deviation while firing (as opposed to instant pinpoint accuracy the instant you press prone).

2. After jumping and going prone, add an even bigger reduction for 2 seconds (max deviation).

3. Remove the ability to go prone in midair. This is what Dice Sweden did in 2142... and guess what? THERE IS NO DOLPHIN DIVING!!

amen

- Sometimes, squads are "stuck" or "phantom". Either you can't leave a squad, create a squad, or spawn on the squad leader. A server-side bug exists where a whole team is limited to a certain number, or cannot make any, squads.

god i hate this one

ive gotta say, this is a list i can agree with, everything here, no exception. i could agree with alot on your last feeback thread called "dice read this = awsome game" or whatever, but lots of it was bah, cheers for the good thread!

Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

Since when are grenades the BIG problem of BF2? Holy **** you people are hilarious. The nades have been the same since June of 2005 when the game came out. Its never been a big problem till now? You know how to counter nades? Have your squad f*cking flank the grenaders or rush straight up the middle. There is quite a delay in weapon switching from nades to guns. You can even hear when the bad guys toss the nades cause they scream it out everytime they throw it. My god learn to play the game.

The only 2 things i agree with are the J10 (im not a pilot, but ive read a ton about this) and the insta prone. But the insta prone was a design choice made a long time ago. They didnt want to have the slower paced prones and gameplay that BF Vietnam has. It keeps the pace fast. I personally still find ways to kill a point blank insta proner. Its not that big of a deal. Its only a problem for me when you are sniping and someone insta prones you from quite a distance. I admit that is ********. If someone insta prones you at a distance. Move your ***, or youre dead. You just have to learn to adapt.

The patch appears to have fixed the major issues - crashing. And some nice little bug fixes too. It would have been nice to see The J10 and prones fixed, of course, but the patch is far from trash.

Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

There is already a bug list. Wait until you hear this, of all places to put it...its in the BUGS SECTION!

Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

Sir. SuperTyphoon, hey man how is going? Yeah I agree with you. But in the new map that came with the 1.4 (how ever you spellit). Its purely a sniping/claymore map. I can only imagine what it would be like with vehicles and the disadvantage MEC would have. But in infantry mode its even if you have people that are good snipers.

As for the other glitches and things that have been unfixed:
1. Nade spam: When you throw a single nade there are actually two.
2. Scope bug: going from scope it would lag a bit (introduce in 1.3)
3. Claymore radius: it needs to be cut back a bit.
4. Parachute problem: On some building like on Karkand you cannot use the parachute.

These are just my experiences. I have not tried all teh kits yet.

Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

1. Sprint bug in Special Forces still exsists
2. When I move the mouse sometimes my character starts to Spin Extremely Fast this (Happens Randomly)
3. Kit Glitch shown in this thread:

http://www.totalbf2.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94642

Here's what I dont understand.

This whole community knows what is wrong with the game yet Dice will not act upon it. How can they fix something in a newer game with the old engine but not be able to fix the game that started the engine.

MOD IT.

Fix the switching seats in the choppers in mid-flight.

Re: OFFICIAL 1.4 Problem List

Kill that language. Don't f**k with my grenades boy! If you want to monkey around with the supply pack, make it so that a Supply kit can not supply himself. Don't screw the rest of the other kits over because of spamming from the Supply Class.

the kits simply arent balanced, nobody should be spamming nades but why should any kit but assault get more than two?

There is already a bug list. Wait until you hear this, of all places to put it...its in the BUGS SECTION!

revolution, most of this stuff isnt bugs at all but gameplay issues.

AT rockets STILL go right through fast vehicles that are driving straight at you.

Lag issues have gotten worse not better.
