      I don't think bf2 needs any customization really.

      I just wish they used more up to date weapons (i.e. M16A4, QBZ-95/03).

      And maybe the weapons should have the correct features too (i.e. RPK-74 should have a 75 round drum, MP5 should be accurate).

          maybe it was "the fashion" when the game was created 2 years ago to use those weapons , or they did a survey to see people's favourite weapons (not necessarily the public but maybe they asked the army) dunno ^^

            Actually, it happens when you're being a caustic moron, happened to me with big bold text. Take responsibility and don't cry wolf.

            As for the OP, LOL.

                not really met anyone in-game who has said that BUT i personally prefer BF2 because i dislike futuristic war-fare.

                BF2 has come and given everyone something good - i dont see a reason to complain, maybe people are just bored of it? should try a diffrent platform?

                  Actually, the game was supposed to take place 'a couple' years in the future. Kinda why they called it Wake2007 back when it was released in ?2005?

                    Re: why doesnt BF series have more customization?

                    BF2142 came pretty good. They had four kits, and not only that but they were combined, and the thing is that assault kit is both medic and assault same with engy, it's engy and AT.

                    Anyway, I'd love to see gun constomization, like ACOGs, reflex sights, ect... and the regular unlock guns, like...this.


                    So the MEC medic would star twith AK47, and he can unlock AK101, and sights, and other things.

                    And for the USMC you'd get an M16A2, then an A4, and you could put an ACOG, and medic would also be assault, so he could have smoke grenades, and WAY more clips, soldiers don't fight with less then 6.

                    Anyway, I love the game, but there are lots of improvements that could be made!

                      Funny you bring up BF2142...I took a nap this afternoon and I had a dream that DiCE released a 2GB patch that would put the 2142 engine and tweaks into BF2. And everyone was complaining not how much good that it did for the game...but how big the file was and that they did not want to download it.

                          Supposedly a new patch for BF2 is in production...

                          Found the link in a thread about a BF2 patch and the OP summarized the important parts:

                          "A Team from "BATTLEFIELD2-NEWS.DE" visited DICE. They asked Lars Gustavsson (Creative Director) and Sean Decker (Executive Producer) if there will be new patch coming out.

                          - Will there be a new patch?

                          Answer - Yes, there is one already in production.

                          They say that the costs for the new patch are extremely high so it would take a lot of time but eventually a new patch IS comin"

                              can we get this translated please.

                              Das Team von "BATTLEIFIELD2-NEWS.DE" hatte im April die Chance DICE (Entwickler BF2) einen Besuch abzustatten. Folgende Fragen wurden dort Lars Gustavsson (Creative Director) und Sean Decker (Executive Producer) gestellt (QUELLE: www.battlefield2-news.de):


                              Battlefield 2

                              Frage: Wird es noch einen weiteren Patch geben?
                              Antwort: Es ist ein Patch in Arbeit



                              Frage: Wird das Rankingsystem auch für Mods freigegeben? Es wird schon sehr lange davon gesprochen. Antwort: Der Wille für die Freigabe des Rankingsystem für Mods ist vorhanden, jedoch gibt es derzeit noch keine Möglichkeit das Rankingsystem für Mods freizugeben. Als Gründe die die Umsetzung behindern, wurden uns der zu erbringende Support und die daraus entstehenden Kosten genannt. Interessant zu Wissen ist, dass 95% der Battlefield Spieler nur auf Ranked Servern spielen.



                              Frage: Wird es ein offizielles Mappack geben, welches auch auf den Ranked Servern gespielt werden kann und auch unterstützt wird?
                              Antwort: Dazu dürfen wir nichts sagen.



                              Frage: Wie lange werden die BF2/BF2142 Kontoserver noch laufen?
                              Antwort: Es gibt derzeit keine Pläne die Kontoserver abzustellen. Solange wie BF2 und BF2142 gespielt werden, bleibt das Ranked-Server-System bestehen.



                              Frage: Wird es naher Zukunft weitere Maps für Special Forces geben?
                              Antwort: Sorry, kein Kommentar.



                              Frage: Ist der Editor für BF2 vollständig veröffentlicht?
                              Antwort: Für den BF2 Editor gibt derzeit keine Pläne, diesen mit weiteren Funktionen zu erweitern.



                              Frage: Wird es ein weiteres AddOn geben?
                              Antwort: Nein, weitere AddOns oder Busterpacks sind für BF2 derzeit nicht geplant.



                              Frage: Warum ist die Kommunikation zu den Mod-Teams so schlecht?
                              Antwort: Das Problem hat DICE erkannt und einen neuen HQ Community Manager Colin Clack eingestellt. Er ist in Kontakt mit vers. Mod-Teams und soll diese noch weiter vertiefen. Er ist auch der Ansprechpartner zu Fragen oder Anregungen des Editors.



                              Frage: Warum große Patches statt öfters kleinere Bugfixes?
                              Antwort: Patches und Bugfixes sind extrem aufwendig und teuer. Allein der vorletzte BF2 Patch Version 1.4 hat rund $300.000 gekostet. Der Grund für die enormen Kosten liegt hauptsächlich an den aufwendigen Tests der Software und verschiedenen Bedingungen und auf den unterschiedlichsten Systemen.(Qualitätssicherung) Aus diesem Grund ist es nicht möglich die User mit kleineren und schnelleren Bugfixes zu versorgen. Ist ein Patch fertig gestellt, kann dieser nicht sofort zum Download frei gegeben werden. Hierfür müssen erst die rechtlichen Grundlagen geklärt werden. In jedem Land gilt unterschiedliches Recht. Erst wenn diese Hürde genommen ist, kann das File auf den DL-Server.



                              Frage: Plant Dice Produkte um auf die Konkurrenz wie ET QW oder Frontlines zu antworten?
                              Antwort: Sie erwarten auch mit Spannung ET QW und Frontlines. Auch wenn eines der Spiele besser sein sollte als ein Spiel von DICE, hat die Community dadurch mehr Vorteile. Da Konkurrenz das Geschäft und die Kreativität belebt, kann der Spieler sich darauf verlassen, dass Dice versuchen wird, seine Produkte weiter zu verbessern.



                              Frage: Wo Bleibt die Marine?
                              Antwort: Thematisch passt es nicht mehr richtig in BF2. In der heutigen Zeit ist die Marine eine mobile Einsatzzentrale und nicht mehr wie z.B. im 2’ten Weltkrieg aktiv an Kampfhandlungen beteiligt.





                              Fazit:

                              Lange Rede, kurzer Sinn. Die Gerüchte das es KEINEN weiteren Patch für Battlefield 2 geben soll, dürften damit wohl endgültig entkräftet worden sein. Allerdings ist es schon nervig wenn fast jede dritte Frage mit "KEIN KOMMENTAR oder "Dazu dürfen wir nichts sagen" beantwortet wird.
