Patch 1.03 - Whats being updated?

[CamelToePie]

Following the annoucement from EA about this new patch, does anyone know the full list of whats being updated?

----------------------------------------------------
Towards the end of August, we will be releasing a new patch, 1.03. This patch is currently underway and will undergo thorough testing before it goes out to avoid the problems that have occurred in the past. There are over 140 fixes and improvements in this patch. Here are just a few of them:

Server and Client performance improvements
Improved Server Browser – added Favorites and History Lists.
Point-farming prevention - game will stop Support/Medic/Engineer point farming exploits.
Squads - locked squad leader will get a message if someone wants to join.
Many HUD improvements - see the names of others in your vehicle, zoom level changing depending on vehicle, map zoom depending on map setup (16, 32 or 64 player map) etc.
Teamkilling changes – the logic of how teamkills are tracked will be changed.
Gameplay tweaks - the way transport helicopters work will be tweaked.
Additional scoring changes - players who destroy an enemy commander's assets will be given points.

There are many, many more fixes that will be included in the patch but we’re looking forward to everyone moving to 1.03 to get the best BF2 experience out there on a level, cheat-free playing field.

Really glad to hear about points for destroying ememy commanders assets. I do this all the time to help my team ( and frustrate the e. commander) and always thought i deserve points for all the work it takes.

its good they are sorting these problems out but they have only mentioned a small amount of what they are actually updating.

I am wondering if anyone knows the full list of updates being applied?

I rather they take their sweet time and get it right versus rush and make things a whole hell of a lot worse for us.

This came out July 21 I think and has been posted several times since. I don't think there's been an update since then.



Battlefield 2™ Patch v1.03
EA and DICE are happy to announce that the Battlefield 2 1.03 patch is in development.

Here's a message from EA and DIVE to our Battlefield 2 fans:

Hi everyone, and thanks for supporting BF2. Thanks to all of you out there, BF2 has seen great success around the world and we’d like to thank you all for that.

Since its launch, we’ve tried to give BF2 all the support it deserves by releasing patches with the fixes and improvements you’ve asked for. Unfortunately, we haven’t lived up to the standards we’ve set for ourselves and we know that. So all of us at EA and DICE are working extra hard to make sure that the BF2 experience improves dramatically in the coming weeks.

Towards the end of August, we will be releasing a new patch, 1.03. This patch is currently underway and will undergo thorough testing before it goes out to avoid the problems that have occurred in the past. There are over 140 fixes and improvements in this patch. Here are just a few of them:

* Server and Client performance improvements.

* Improved Server Browser - added Favorites and History Lists.

* Point-farming prevention - game will stop Support/Medic/Engineer point farming exploits.

* Squads - locked squad leader will get a message if someone wants to join.

* Many HUD improvements - see the names of others in your vehicle, zoom level changing depending on vehicle, map zoom depending on map setup (16, 32 or 64 player map) etc.

* Teamkilling changes - the logic of how teamkills are tracked will be changed.

* Gameplay tweaks - the way transport helicopters work will be tweaked.

* Additional scoring changes - players who destroy an enemy commander's assets will be given points.

There are many, many more fixes that will be included in the patch but we’re looking forward to everyone moving to 1.03 to get the best BF2 experience out there on a level, cheat-free playing field.

We also know that there is still an issue with availability of slots on Ranked Servers. We’re all delighted that this new feature has been so popular, but we know that many of you are finding it hard to get onto a ranked server, especially at peak times. We are taking big steps and investing heavily to ensure that everyone can experience this side of BF2. New official servers have gone up in Europe and the US this week and you will see many more going up in the coming weeks. Our vision is to make sure you never have to wait to get onto a ranked server so you can enjoy the game at its best, and we will work to make that happen.

Thanks for being such fans of BF2. We’ve been listening to you and we’re determined to make BF2 the best online shooter experience out there. We hope you like the changes that are coming.
