Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

you won't be able to place both special forces maps and normal bf2 maps in the same maplist on a ranked server. but you can easily swicth between them.

This sounds bad. If you don't upgrade, you will be S.O.L. on many servers. Definitely a step backward, IMHO. One of the best things about BF1942's expansion packs was that you could mix and match mods, vanilla game and expansion packs.

This patch is just to make the current BF:2 compatibly with SF and nothing more. EA haven't told us about a bug-fix patch becase there isn't any at the moment.

1.12 is just the sequence number that the last patch went gold on. If they had found a last minute bug and the patch had to be recompiled then we'd be on 1.13 instead.

Yeah I realise that, but why is it so big, surely that could be done in under 280mb?

Yeah, 280 does seem pretty big when I thought that it was just the .exe that was being changed. On well, roll on next Tuesday :)

Im sure this patch will require 8 gigs free before you can run it.

Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

It might be due to the unlocks you can use in BF2 from BF2:SF perhaps they had to make allot of changes to get to work? But still doesn't account for 280mb!

Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

How did they manage to fill 280mb with that.. ?

Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

Wow, a 280MB virus, that must be a new record or something.

Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

Maybe it’s an accumulative patch and not supplemental, they’re making us re-download 1.03 content all over again. Probably contains a day one patch for the expansion too.

Re: New 1.12 patch info..needs translating

I just hope some of the good servers will stay with the 1.03 for awhile while the "newness" of special forces blows over...

All ranked servers will be switched on the 21st.
