Will BF2 ever be patched to be what it should have been?

Patch 1.03 is supposed to fix 140+ things so......we'll see. Some of what you said is in the game, but you gotta turn it on to full settings. Of course, some things did get cut for the sake that it will actually run on even high end systems...

Hopefully patch 1.03 will be our savior.

Binoculars is what I miss. I cannot understand why no kits have binocs. Sure I know the commander can spot people out but binoculars would really come in handy for spotting those snipers out so you can then go and knife them muahaha.

Also the expansion is going to have grappling hooks. That would have been cool to have so you could climb to a roof top to avoid claymores and knife snipers. Or to climb up to the roof that has no ladder.

I spose we need to wait for patch 1.03 and see just what these 140+ fixes are and whether or not it adds more bugs or not. I seem to come across a lot of stuck vehicles now that won't move. You can blow them up and when they respawn they will move. I have even stopped some vehicles and they get stuck. That didn't happen in the original version or in the demo so thats an added bug that came with 1.02 to add to the many bugs this game has.

Hopefully they will get it right with 1.03 but I have my doubts going off their previous performances or lack of.

No.

BF2 will *maybe* have all the bugs (CTD, gfx card errors, extremely shitty server browser, etc) and stupid little things (cant see names of other players in vehicles, stupid crap like that) fixed by christmas. ***Maybe**. I don't beleive they will have fixed the TK system with patch 1.03. Somehow, they will **** it up.

By then though, they will have spent all thier time on making maps to sell to people, with a new MEC car or something stupid.

If you want good gameplay, you're gonna have to go for mods. PR is getting off to a good start, BFA looks great, FH2 will be amazing, and there are lots of other mods with potential.

We haven't even seen a proper patch yet and you people are already digging a grave for this game.
All that's been releases so far are hotfixes (1.0X)
Wait until proper patches are made before passing judgement.
Battlefield 1942 was just as bad in it's early days but look at how solid it is now.

See, the problem with this train of thought is that you don't factor in the fact the BF1942 was the FIRST version of the series.

Ya' figure with all the time they had to, well, get that working; they woulda' learned somthing from their past and see the potential for quality to become a serious issue if the game is not givin' the proper attention.

...but, EA didn't learn anything. BF2 shipped in a extremely crap tastic condition. So, I think for the most part people compare the two as such, " Damn, didn't they learn anything from 1942!? " not " Well, 1942 sucked when it first started, so BF2 has every right to suck; we should have expected this!"

"one word"

uninstall the game if you dont like playing it that much, theres always desert combat you can go play.

thats like 19 words or so.

anyway, nothing is going to be perfect after a couple of patches, give them some credit for at least making the game! and thus far in my opinion the game rocks! of course it has some glitches and flaws, but so did early brain surgeons

This is what it should have been.... http://www.eagames.com/official/batt...easer&resID=hi

IE, will they ever add...

- Binoculars
- bullet penetration holes
- realistic weapon pickups from dead bodys
- more destructable environments than just lame bridges
- dust lifted off the ground from fired tank shells or low-flying Helecoptors
- realistic tank viewscreen
- different weaponry for each army (I highly doubt the USMC and the MEC would use the same duct-taped c4 packs)
- VASTLY more detailed maps
- random non-assault vehicals scattered around the map
- variations of vehicals (Hummers with TOWs, Blackhawks with missiles, mobile artillery, etc.)
- heat blur from planes and helecoptors
- more realistic sounds and ambience
- favorite server list
- friends list

I could go on.. but honestly, if they could put all this stuff into a trailer, coulden't they put it into the real game?

The game works fine for me...besides the browser needs tweaking{add a favorite list, which they are} and the TK system{also Dice is fixing}...thats all I could think of... course there is some other bugs, but that's expected for a new game that came out two months ago. You got to be stupid/lame to think a game is going to be bug free only two months in..:p But then again you must be stupid to think they would throw everything you mention above...variations of vehicals,different weaponry for each army,more destructable environments than just lame bridges, and Binoculars into the first game...that's why they have updates and expansions...because it's all about the dollar-dollar bill y'all...

I love the game but i'm just pissed off that it could have been much better than it is..

Re: Will BF2 ever be patched to be what it should have been?

give it time man, if after the 1.3 patch is out, and they announce that its the last patch, and things still arent fixed, then i would agree that flaming EA is justified

haha

Re: Will BF2 ever be patched to be what it should have been?

here is how things work:

big corporation: Hurry and release the game! We want money! money! money!

game developer: It's not ready

big corporation: That's what patches are for!

game developer: Ah....no

big corporation: We will pull your funding if the game is not released when we want it
