interesting. i wonder if the "print screen" screenshots will freeze your game like it does in 2142.

Too late, this stuff should have been done months ago. Releasing a patch to fix a game that 80% of the BC2 population will be abandoning as soon as the BF3 beta arrives is stupid.

Can't wait. I don't believe that Steam works so slow. It has taken 2 weeks for them to to QA this patch, but anyway I love Steam

You are closer to the truth than you know:

Are there any known problems with it?

If your Windows username contains non-English characters (such as ö, ý, etc) then PunkBuster will not activate properly. To work around this, ensure that your Windows username uses only characters from the English character set. In other words, "7-bit ASCII only, please". We caught this at the very end of the validation pass, and decided that it was better to deliver the build to the public than to give it another tour through the whole patch generation and validation process.

But I welcome the multimonitor fix, if nothing else I expect the issue to be fixed in BF3 too.

You are closer to the truth than you know:

why upgrade (patch) 30 days before the BF3?

"Chat window no longer causes lag spikes"Are you kidding me? It took them this long to fix that crap..? I've been suffering with that shit since day one of release.

I thought these were strange as well as all the fixes I never ran into.

I must be one lucky guy.

Who cares!!!BC2 was just to keep us hooked and to test Frostbite on BF until BF3 was released.

i think they are "porting" some fixes they found and managed to fix by doing the engine from scratch on bf3 xD

i noticed that i now have a bug. not sure if it is just in hardcore mode, but when i aim down the sights using weapons with scopes such the medic g36c machinegun, it zooms but then the zoom comes back again (unzooms)

Thats been a bug in the game since the third patch. Im surprised you never had it until now.
