Should there be a hotfix? (1.41)

Re: Should their be a hotfix? (1.41)

So this is the emergent sitaution that requires the immediate attention of the dev's yet again? A mere 36 hours or so have passed since the patch was released and you already want a hotfix? Hmmm, I guess there is no way to make anyone happy.
I used the incremental patch and things could not have turned out better.

Of course. That's how things work. If something is broken, one would want it fixed as soon as possible.

Logically if something continues to be broken, one will not be happy until it is fixed.

I think the nade spamming needs to be fixed maybe everyone has a set amount of nades at the start of a round and thats it. Cannot re-supply nades from crates or support only bullets can get re-supplied?

Let's take the guns out too. And we can even do away with the jumping all together. We can run around and throw water balloons and flowers at one another...LOL!!! This isn't counter strike Loco.

I second that! Except the sarcasm... :p Nades are fine, only a problem on Karkand.

36 hours is not long enough to release a hotfix, but it is long enough to find every single bug with the patch.

I do agree with previous posts. Nade spamming on Karkand is absolutely ridiculous. When these guys get 40-0 sitting in a corner with two support guys next to them, you know something is wrong with the game aspects.

Dice will never fix it, so complaining is useless.

Re: Should their be a hotfix? (1.41)

I'm all for a hotfix. DICE

If Hotfix included the following four fixes the gameplay in BF2 would be 100% better.

* Grenades are only able to be resupplied by suply crates and medics/spec-ops/sniper only have 1 grenade with the kit, 2 for assault/at/engineer and 3 for support. This would nerf the grenade spamming and pretty much ruin that gameplay exploit on Karkand.

* Claymores should be destructable by enemy explosives. This includes tank shells, artillery, grenades, C4, airplane bombs, helicopter rockets and helicopters TV missile. Just like that Karkand claymore spamming is a thing of the past and snipers will start using claymores as intended in a sneaky fashion to defend flags and sniping locations.

* In IO mode kills and revives only count as 1 point. That'd get rid of the stat padders in IO mode, balance out the point gain in that mode and promote TEAMWORK oriented gameplay that is fun rather than this point whoring attitude so many have embraced.

* Revert A2A missiles (only A2A not S2A) to 1.12 patch settings. This would balance all the aircraft and give attack/transport helicopters a much needed survivability boost on maps with aircraft.

By the way I've had 2 CTD DURING the game (in 1.3 I'd only CTD every 1 in 3 game join attempts on a new server). I've never had a crash like that until I installed the patch so as of right now I'm uninstalling/reinstalling BF2 and applying the full 1.4 patch (and yes, I patched with 1.4 full the first time). My system is rock solid stable and this is the patch and not my software that is at fault.

They are indeed working on the next update.

Whether it be a hotfix or a patch is unknown at present. As such, there is no ETA yet.

I'm throwing the BS flag on that one! Show me the proof!

Re: Should their be a hotfix? (1.41)

I used incremental, absolutely no problems that didnt exist beore, i would just prefer if they stopped tweaking it, i have my own list of wants, but i dont want anymore instability and if that means sticking to 1.4 so be it

Re: Should their be a hotfix? (1.41)

I played IO flat out last nite on various maps and the amount of nades everyone was throwing was a joke they were playing support and resupplying themselves. You couldnt cap a flag without 10 nades flying at you. Maybe they could take the guns away after all no-one seems to use them anymore.

Im not having that problem but I downloaded the full patch so I could make sure there was no problem. Had one CTD while playing but thats it.

Re: Should their be a hotfix? (1.41)

FIX THE SERVER CRASHES AND CTD'S.

I don't give a damn about ANYTHING else. I just want a playable game without getting CTD'd every 30 mins. It's pathetic.

Please DICE, fix it

I'm the one, along with others who is going to be playing BF2 way into the future, so can't we just have one final fix?

I REALLY DON`T CARE HOW OLD YOU ARE AND WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU HAD SOME HOT MILK!!! I really don`t care what you do for a living ... WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS: How would you fix REAL LIFE!?! It has even more bugs than a silly game called BF2 .....

Some people would never grow-up and face the issues ... THAT`S WHATS SAD IN THIS WORLD!!!:laugh:

Knife only servers? Isn't that against the ROE? :) At least then people would stop complaining about support people not dropping ammo. :laugh:

I am getting so tired of hearing this halfbaked solution. If you are going to gimp anything d*ckhead, just take Karkand out of the ranked pool. How do you like my solution? You don't, then here is a more civil idea: Make it so the supply kit can not resupply itself! Is that better.

I wish people would stop reaching for my grenades. I have no intrest in yours so leave mine alone!

You couldnt cap a flag without 10 nades flying at you. Maybe they could take the guns away after all no-one seems to use them anymore.

Sorry, that is life, learn to live with your grenade-envy.
