New bugs after Patch 1.40

[vanilla]

Very true, cod4 allows you to play with no dvd in the drive. But that may explain the reason behind the many cracked servers....? :hmm:

Yet it wouldn't work with a central system like BFs. Cracked Servers would be unranked, and therefore not fun to play for most of the players.

cracked servers on cod4 are ranked btw...

Than their system is flawed. Never seen a cracked ranked BF server.

Bugs and Fewer Players....

Noticed that over the last week there are alot less people playing, as I have been moving up the leader board faster than normal if there is anything normal about this game anymore. With over 250,000 player names listed on the BF2142 stat site there are less than a few thousand players on line at any given time. (And yes I know each account can have 5 players) Most accounts only have one soldier..............
Guess EA and LICE are on track to destroy this game..........Very sad.

Back Up needed....................

I cant really find any problems, from when i stopped playing till now (in that time new patch came out)

a good number of players can't play the game even if they wanted to. they likely suffer from the bug that prevents the loading of the map. only ppl like us who visit forums would know the solution to serious problems like that.

plus, since the patch servers are crashing left and right when i try to play hwy tampa. i'm sure the shoddy patch job is also making people stop playing the game.

The game has been around for over a year so some drop off is inevitable. I have tried some of the other games but haven't found one to top 2142 yet. COD4 just seems like mindless scrimmage. Crysis runs like a slideshow on my system - I might get a geforce 9 when they come out and then have another look.

System is currently

Core Duo E6300 @ 3.2 ghz
2mb DDR2 @ 915 mhz
Geforce 7900 GS

The video card can't handle Crysis but I hear you need at least a 8800 to get a decent experience.

Just got a new bug with bf2142 1.40 final version or old one if ea hasn't fixed it. The game locked up in mid map play. Not even ctl-alt-del did anything, everything stopped. Nothing worked short of a total power shut down. My guess is that another server crashed.

had that quite a lot since the new patch, never had it before hand.

Occasionally I get them as well. Maybe 2 or 3 times since the release.

Looks like the new 1.40 final patch added new bugs onto the playing field. It's frustrating when you're chasing down an ememy only to have the prize snatched away while taunting you of a potential kill as the soldier is frozen on screen. Arhhhhhhhhggggggggggggggg. #$@$ !*#% %!!!

[Minmaster]

i don't mind the hard freeze because it's only occasional, but what angers me a lot is when the server loses connection/crashes in the middle of a round. i would be doing really well and then all of a sudden i get kicked back to the game menu and the server browser shows that the server i was playing is offline. server instability is most severe on Highway Tampa servers.

Does it count as a bug if I'm spending more time scanning the air than the ground in titan mode?

Thanks, EA. Thanks for doubling the most annoying vehicle in the game, and turning BF2142 into BF2, where the game is ruled by the air. Thought you'd learned your lesson with that one.

That's just frustrating...

I noticed another glitch while playing highway tampa after bf2142 1.40 final version. It has happened a couple of times so far and it is annoying. I was in a walker and suddenly the controls locked up. I was able to move around but I couldn't fire. Then it happened again while in a ground transport. I got out of both when I went into the menu screen then back and I continued playing. Very annoynig.
