Just make a damn patch to fix the bug that some of us have. The "Lost connection to server" one, which totally cripples our gameplay. Nevermind gameplay changes, we don't need anymore of them.

Patchs to fix bugs = Good.

Patchs cause people are stupid and run up the middle of Karkand, at major choke point and die by hail of nads = stupid.

More then 75% of BF2 players don't want another patch.
the other 25% are whinly little kids/ whinly teens/ whinly adult kids who just want to whine and ***** about BF2 and not play it and just post and whine all day on a forum and also just want to change BF2 because they are not skilled enough to learn how to copm with BF2 and the way it is

I'll second this.

yet again planewhore always sees what is wrong with the game, 100% agree tbh, some of those points are why i dont play anymore, but imo dice arent that bothered, theyre busy working on that money making mod...

EA is all about the temp fix, just so we stick around to see if they can make it better or just jack it up more......funny how we all talk about the madness of it all though.

Again the main goal of these changes is to encourage players to use their rifles instead of explosives. Explosives that provide easy kills should still have a role but it should be a lesser one.

I've thought about these changes quite a bit and you act as if I just pulled them off the top of my head. Unlike a lot comenting in this thread (in a negative fashion) I play Battlefield 2 every single day (and an exceptional player I am). I play as infantry and I watch the grenade spammers, the claymore spammers and the point blank n00b tubers. I simply want players to have a reason to use the rifle because at current you can play an infantry heavy map like Karkand and without firing a single bullet win the gold medal.

Dice has already said that the new pathc, if any, will contain nothing to change gameplay. The damage has been done permanently, and any future patches that come out will ONLY (attempt) to fix problems. However, we all know how effective that is.

a) The support class ammo packs can no longer resupply grenades (supply crates will still be able to resupply them). This will stop the grenade fest that happens every single round at Karkand and put a rough hard cap on the number of grenades thrown per player per death (excluding an encounter with a supply crate).

I'm afraid I have to disagree with that a bit. Most of the Karkand nadefest takes place in the beginning and I don't think that most of the quys throwing nades there live long enough to deplete their supply of it. Though that just goes for the beginning, your suggestion would cure the rest of the round :)
I like the way that PoE2 solved it, only SpecOps have grenades, others have smoke only (if even that). Also I think that Support and Medic have a limited amount of packs (might be wrong here). And this hasn't caused an increase in the usage of the SpecOps kit. Well the latter may also be because of the type of players PoE attracts.

And I'm sorry to say, but you missed your chance on inventing 'exploitability', according to dictionary.com its a noun version of 'exploit'. :P

I think that no matter what changes the developers make to the game, there will still be those who won't like them and what is good enough for everyone is good for nothing.

For me the noobtoobers are no longer a problem, I maybe get killed by one every second round, it used to be really annoying then it was jump-and-shoot with those things.

I wholehearterly agree with you about the usage of claymores, its actually dishonourable. I actually feel bad for leaving my clays behind when I relocate ... would be nice if the sniper could disarm them. Its not always you find a support to give you new ones.

As regards to my wishlist ... a filter that would not display servers with idiots in them ... well the ranked server filter takes care of most, but it also takes along many good servers

I play Battlefield 2 every single day (and an exceptional player I am). I play as infantry and I watch the grenade spammers, the claymore spammers and the point blank n00b tubers. I simply want players to have a reason to use the rifle because at current you can play an infantry heavy map like Karkand and without firing a single bullet win the gold medal.

Just go unranked or PoE, a lot more civilised there.

Do you have some survey conducted to get these statistics? I wasn't aware of that poll. Or did you make them all up?

What damage? Where?
I also play a bit almost every day ... if it were so ruined as so many keep ranting about I wouldn't be ... I just don't understand why so many who seem to have such a dislike towards this game, keep on playing it. Tell me, why?

Being the devils advocate, nothing personal. Sounds to me you want the game adapted to your playing style and this could be clearly untrue (devils advocate). What if the devil likes spamming grenades instead of using the wacked overpowered medic assault kits. All the changes to kits have done nothing but screwed up the balance. The heavy hitters on the field, assault and support, have been neutered to the point where the medic class is the top dog (infantry heavy maps for discussion). Now you want to limit grenades (both types). Picture it, you have emptied all your clips trying to take out two medics who keep reviving and dropping medic packs. You could have easily ended it if you had a grenade but you already burnt your one and the commander keeps dropping crates for armor. Don't like it one bit.

Re: PlaneWhore's top 4 BF2 changes that need to be in the 1.5 patch

Sounds to me you want the game adapted to your playing style.

Actually on this point you are correct. I do want people to adopt my playing style (kit balance itself being an entirely seperate issue that does not effect this thread or these changes). For example... I won't just run backwards and throw grenades when confronted with another player at close to medium ranges but instead I'll pull out my rifle and shoot at them. When I actually do use grenades I use them in an intelligent fashion. I see an enemy in a stationary location that I can't shoot with my rifle (people capturing the Hotel flag on Karkand for example) I throw my grenade and more often than not it kills them. I can accomplish with one grenade what most people accomplish just by spamming them. One method takes skill the other does not yet sadly both methods are equally effective.

All that care and skill I attempt to inject in to my gameplay is nullified by the fact that you don't have to do that in order to be effective.

I want other people to think about where they are going to throw that grenade rather than spamming them at random and again I want people to realize that they have a rifle in their kit loadout for a reason. Pull that rifle out take aim and fire. I know it sounds intimidating to a lot of players but once you try it you just might like it.

Re: PlaneWhore's top 4 BF2 changes that need to be in the 1.5 patch

Leave the game the way it is.... Thats what i say....


You don't like grenades and claymores and noob tubes coz they instantly kill you so you go off with saying they should get changed and such

Away and gees peace.

You planewhore DONT even get exposed to grenades and such coz your to busy plane and armour whoring it up.....

there wont even be a 1.5 patch anyway.....90% sure of that

P.S planewhore . If you want skill in a game and nerfed grenades. GO PLAY COUNTER STRIKE SOURCE!!! 52 hp after a grenade impact i believe.
