Problems with 1.2 patch?

[H1gh-Veloc1ty]

Hello!

It's been awhile since I played this game and posted on this forum - I just downloaded the 1.2 patch and played a few rounds. I must say that I'm happy that both dolphin diving and noob tubing are largely gone - Kudos. Not happy with the existing browser interface - which seems to take forever to load.

To my surprise (being facetious), EA announced that they introduced new problems with patch 1.2 and will delay the release of the European Forces. Anyone know what new problems EA has introduced with the new 1.2 patch? Any observations?

When I check the box "Battlerecorder" in game browser I can´t update the serverlist Strange that it works in vanilla BF2 but not in Special Forces

AA missiles zig zag more than they should
AA missiles get stuck on oil tower flames
Apparantly one of the Humvee's take 3 tank shells to kill
Humvee wth the the mounted TOW gun crashes the server when fired
Server browser filters no longer work correctly
dolphin diving is still possible to a certain extent

I think theres a whole bunch more, do a search on the forum.

You sure that is a problem? If they are heat sensing missles shouldn't they lock onto the flames as well? And I am pretty sure that was there before the patch.

Ok, think about this heat seeking missle, they seak heat. Flames are hot and produce heat. There is a video I saw like one hour after the patch came out:P It showed a missle stuck in the flame...

It's a problem when they hover inside the flame not going anywhere.

I hear that if a plane fly's by it close enough it will cause it to leave the flame and follow the jet and hit it.

I wasn't aware they were doing that, I thought you meant just locking on to the flames. So should it just pass through the flame or should it be realistic and blow up the oil rig? (what a way to take out a sniper)

Well I seriously hope they do something with the missiles.
I was in an F-35 on Wake yesterday, hot on the 6 of a J-10. I fired 2 missiles in quick succession and watched the first one go straight into the tail pipe, and the other one did a 90 degree turn half way to the J-10 and hit a friendly chopper 5 times as far away, and actually falling behind me at that time. This missile did NOT decoy to a flare first as the J-10 wasn't droping flares at that time. It simply decided it would rather go after a friendly chopper than the nice hot jet exhaust it was locked onto.
Anybody else seen anything like this?

LMAO. ok then its confirmed. I thought I was imaging this ****. I literally saw 3 missles hovering around the oil tower flames then blow up. It was the weirdest thing I have ever seen. Thought I was giong crazy. Didn't really see others talk about it as I don't frequent the forums like I use to.

Yeah i have the invisible buildings/massive lag issue. It's cause i have an unsupported ATI card.

EA is taking too long on 1.21 as far as i'm concerned.

IT also doesnt help that they force DX9 to run, and also the engine renders stuff you can't see. Decent graphic engines these days only render what you can see and give you a choice between DX 8 and 9.

I'm not happy with the new brower either, mine loads fast but none! of the filters work
