Patch Sucks And......

Re: Patch Sucks And......

I am pretty ****ed off abou this patch. It pretty much sucks. And here is why:
You can't jump and throw ammo packs.
You can't jump and throw medic packs.
You can't dive and knife someone(good luck trying to get expert knife now. I used to be able to get 20 kills with knife alone on Karkand, I considered myself quite good with it and I am not bragging in any means, only stating a point. I used to be able to take out noobtoobers, and even dolphin divers by diving and stabbing them. Now I can't to crap with a knife, it just sits in my inventory.).
Helo armor is same thickness as a 12 oz tin can.
Shock paddles blow completely, I mean WTF. I can't revive people now and I liked them before they edited them.
You can't dive and revive someone, u have to wait till you land.


My feelings are this, if EA wanted to make a realistic game like they are trying to do now, they should have done it from the beginning. Samething happened with COD and after like patch 1.4, I couldn't stand the game. When making a game, stick by your original intentions, don't be persuaded so easily. It isn't like EA needs to make more money, and their tech support has always been grade F IMO. I am not going to buy the booster packs and for the realism intention they want, thats why the made SF. Don't screw over both games, leave SF as the realistic one and BF2 as it used to be before the patch. Just my two cents, flame if you want, not like I am gonna cry.

Re: Patch Sucks And......

I used to love the game and almost exclusively played Assault (No, I wasn't n00b tubing. 230 GL kills in 280 hours) and the only thing 1.2 did for me is make me angry. The whole game mechanics shifted. Why DICE ?

Have you ever tried to reach the Shore on maps like Oman, Wake, or Dalian as US ? I bet not since you would have noticed that it's almost impossible now. Why you changed the weapon acuracy is beyond me. It was fine in 1.12. Why make Support class and Snipers king ? Heck, even I who probably was the crappiest sniper around can do fairly decent with it now. I thought the patch was intended to make the game better for us ground pounders but so fat I've seen nothing of it. Gone are the days where you could actualy have a decent firefight. It's all easy kills now.

This isn't the BF2 I liked, it's a completely different game.

The sniper class is finally normal. Snipers are just good now because they're use to bad precision. The support class needs a few more modifications to balance everything out like more gun recoil and lower sprint time.

You and others like you might want to stick with Quake type games... There are plenty of those twitch shooting games..

I noticed that it takes 4 clips from the PKM or MG36 to destroy a chopper, that's assuming that it's not moving, and you want to spend 5 minutes shooting.

Re: Patch Sucks And......

Play a few rounds as USMC on Karkand and THEN come back and tell us your findings then.....

OK...yes, still a good patch

The sniper class is finally normal. Snipers are just good now because they're use to bad precision. The support class needs a few more modifications to balance everything out like more gun recoil and lower sprint time.

For some unexplainable reason, I find it unnerving, if not disturbing, that snipers are firing Barret M95 rifles perfectly while standing.

After playing a few maps, I noticed that there are a lot of snipers now, and a growing number of support players. The L96A1 is my biggest concern when playing, as it is hard to find where it was fired from, and harder yet to survive it.

But finally EA made the support class worthwhile. I spent whole rounds as support, simply because the PKM is now a killing machine. Go prone, iron sight, fire a few rounds and the enemy has no chance. Even in close range encounters, the PKM makes mince meat out of enemy troopers.

As for the Anti-Air missiles, they seem to obey logic. For example, I lock onto an enemy helicopter, just as it releases flares, I fire two shots, both of them miss. Unfortunately, the missiles seem hellbent on hitting anything that's friendly. I have noticed some oddities, though. While I was flying the JSF F-35B, I was approaching an enemy helicopter which had flared a few seconds ago, and was in the open. I locked on, fire three missiles while firing my machine gun, and all three of the missiles passed right through the helicopter (straight through the part behind the cockpit / below the rotors). One proceeded to hit a friendly chopper and the rest went directly forwards.

takes one clip, unless if its being repaired...

I understand what you're saying but I don't think that I am asking for a lot. To be able to throw medic bags and knife kill while diving along with an adjustment to the shockpaddles, is that asking for too much?

Re: Patch Sucks And......

i honestly think that all the people complaining about not being able to instantly switch to prone and standing are the dolpin-diving freaks that caused this to be implemented in the first place. seriously, there's nothing wrong with going prone. if you have problems, try a new server. switch from prone to standing, and vica versa takes less than .5 second. get over it children.

Re: Patch Sucks And......

ok im not either a bunny hopper or a dolphin diver, im far away from a noobtuber either. i havent tried the new patch yet but i've seen the videos, i know how slow it is when u go prone.

the reason that this new fix kills the game is not because ppl cant dophin dive and shoot others or revive teammates, it's because BF2 is a first person shooter game, it's all about reflex and and aim when it comes to infantry. now the prone is basically useless in the close combat. it kills a good aspect of the game. it's pretty easy to solve dolphin diving issue, just make it so the players cant shoot when they dont touch the ground, no need to make the prone slow.

ever wonder why most competitive gamers prefer DoD 1.6 to DoD: S?

Re: Patch Sucks And......

hey x0pht, try this. jump into the air and land on your chest. tell me if you think you could kill someone with accuracy after that. hence, realism.

this is a game, not RL. if u want realism, you should go buy a new copy of the game after you get killed once in the game. have you seen anyone have a chance to respawn after they have died?

game is only about two things: fun and competition, making the prone slow doesnt please either.

Re: Patch Sucks And......

Im still not sure of the patch, I would share my issues with you guys, but half of you just wouldnt understand. Not everything is blank or white.

"you only moaning cos your a noobtuber" = rubbish

To be honest people must be retarded because going prone doesn't take that long.Maybe if you thought about your actions before getting into a situation where you need to go prone(quickly) then you might not have to whine about prone being over so slightly slower
