    waits for patch.. patch delayed? GRRR! Time to play Guildwars

    Well end of august has come and gone, and no patch for BF2... Granted they at least notified us the patch was being "delayed" for Q&A etc... but still... urgh. I realise there are alot of bugs, but only a few really **** me off like the whole TK system... and Suicide counts, i mean yeh i've killed myself a few times, but everytime i disconnect from a game or switch teams to TRY BALANCE the crappy auto balance system... not to mention my squad being broken up numerous times to AutoBalance, NOT ANNOYING!

    Anyways I decided at the begining of the week that I need something else to play while i wait for this patch cause these 'bugs' are really killing my interest in the game, so i was told to go check out WoW (World of WarCraft)... Pay $30 a month?!?!? Wtf is that crap... I dont mind paying $80-100 for a game once off, but $ every month to continue to play? This is one thing i congratulate EA on, is not charging us PER MONTH to play and have our stats saved. Anyways, so After seeing that I decided WoW was too childish and lacked the purdy graphic eyecandy that BF2 has... BF2 has spoilt me with its gfx and this makes it hard to find any other game that comes close, untill i was told by a guy at EB to check out Guild Wars. Holey crap this game has kik ass gfx, the environments are just insane.... Now for the record i have never played a RPG or MMORPG before cause like they suk nutz... However after buyin guild wars ($80 at EB) and installing it, logging in, i was amazed its actually rather fun. Nothing like BF2 or anything, but still its a good time waster till they fix up the crap with the bugs in BF2.

    So the point of this thread... Have you gone and started to play any new games while waiting for BF2 patch?

    Yeah, I've been playing this game called 'Sharqi Peninsula'. There are all these flags and stuff that you have to try to go to and when you stay at them long enough they change...

    Oh wait.

    The patch isn't the reason I'm playing BF2. Me liking BF2 is the reason I'm playing BF2. If you're hoping the patch is going to change the entire game for you, then you're probably going to be disappointed. The patch is only going to (hopefully) make a good game even better, but it's not a deal-breaker. I'd still be playing BF2 for a long time even if they never release another patch.

        the patch isnt the reason im playin either, its just going to hopefully fix a few little annoyances that happen ingame. I still do play, but not as frequently as i did the first month.

            Its funny too that EA told us of the delay two weeks before the end of aug (or longer) its like they knew they would never get it out on time but wanted to give us a "we care" so they can sell a few more copies

              EA's response is alot better I think then how Novalogic handled the "JO PATCH" and orig. nerfing.

                  I still play the hell out of BF:2. Occasionally play some CS:S, but way too many hackers there. So I just wip out my old Command and Conquer Generals Zero hour. Still fun as sh!t :)

                    Only a few things I really care about that need fixing.

                    1) The TK system. I really don't need to go into it, since we've all experienced it.
                    2) The autobalance. It's nice, but there should still be some fix for switching commanders, squad leaders/members, etc. Not to mention it's impossible to switch teams if they're even, which is stupid.
                    3) The grenade launchers, aka noob tubes. WAAYYYY over powers. Play on Karkand, and you'll see what I mean.
                    4) Blackhawk. Not really that annoying, but if it has 3 engineers repairing, you stand no chance unless you have 3 anti-tank guys shoot at once. At least make it so only 1 engineer can repair at a time...
                    5) Su-34 (MEC Bomber) co-pilot glitch. Half the time the laser guided missile is 'locked', it really isn't.

                          I like playing guild wars. Im at the mission after Iron Hammer mines with my R/E 20, (cant remember the name of the mission, but it is a pain in the butt!)

                          if you want to hang out in there (or give me some sweet bows) add me to xfire: dythlt
