Or tanks, even. Or if every TVGM missile that went through a jet or chopper was a hit, as it should be. It would have changed the outcome of hundreds of rounds of this game. Think about the times the enemy chopper has raped your team into the ground. Maybe if the TVGM from your team's chopper had hit it, instead of going through, your team might have won.
    Along with the lagging hitboxes is dusty knife hits and ghost bullets killing you after you've made it behind cover. Maybe if your hitbox had been where you sure thought you were, you would have been able to get that last AT rocket off to kill the tank capping the flag.

    Of course that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.

      Well it would certainly make using vulcans during dogfights a more reliable method of taking down an enemy jet.

          Who are you?

          You complain when they release BF2 too early and you complain when they spend their time developing BF3.

          There is no pleasing idiots like you :p

                  Yes, i too would like to see this in the new patch as clays are really p*ssing me off, you can see them because they have not been planted properly (hidden) but still make the passage way inacsessable.

                  Am not sure they plan on changing the game this much though.

                  I think we will see a few new maps and maybe something to try and stop hackers and that's it, i don't think we will get anything eles.

                  OH.........they did say a new game mode too, did'nt they.

                  I would like to see hit boxes fixed too, but they won't go that far i think.

                    Did they? That sounds interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if it's some prototype of Gold Rush from Bad Company that they made on the BF2 engine, perhaps. I know there was code in the game which wasn't used, similar to Gold Rush, but at the time it was called something else, "push", "supply lines"? Somthing like that.

                      That ain't going to happen. It would mean ripping out the old netcode and doing some serious work to it. It's too risky as they might leave the game worse off than when it started which in turns, means they have to do more work and move more resources to BF2 and away from other projects.

                      It's not that bad, i've never really had much problems as long as i play on a server with a ping on 70 or less.

                        Really, i did not know they was code like that in BF2 that's not used, but i do know they is other stuff that's in files that's not used in the game, like the L85A1 with granade launcher attachment.


                        They DEFO said about a new game mode, i though it could be the gold rush like BF-BC or even a car and transport only game mode so tanks , APC's , LAV'S , BTR's, attack choppers and jets could not be used.

                        But what ever the game mode is, it should bring a good change with it, something different.

                          talking about the new game mode, i think an "ambush" tipe thing might be awesome.. like... US convoy gets surrounded by MEC or something...

                          all im saying is that itd be cool.................

                            That's "Infantry only" mode good sir! It's already in the game, unless you're thinking of something slightly different?

                            The L85A1 with grenade launcher is used in Euro Force booster pack. That was a pretty good booster too, enjoyed that. :salute:

                              Infantry only has no transport at all, no hardwear, that's why its called infantry only.


                              Then you have servers that have tanks, APC's transport choppers and attack choppers and jets too, but there is currently nothing in the middle of this.


                              That's where the new game mode will come in i think, a game mode that will allow you to drive squrd cars , jeeps , hummers , and ribs , and transport choppers , so all of this is just used for transport only, to get from A-B without getting raped by attack choppers and fighter jest spawn killing and dropping bombs everywhere and no use of ''HEAVY HARDWARE'', (killing machines) IE, tanks, Apc's, jets and so on.

                                I think it will be supply lines or something to that accord...
