Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

How do you know its for the hotfix? there are still other bugs in the game, and as far as i know, the new patch didn't give me any new issues. There are pre-1.21 bugs you know.

Well its a hotfix for a start based on their patch numbering system. Whether its soley to fix 1.21 hotfix problems or the rest of the problems we currently don't know but its definitely a "hot fix" otherwise the patch number would be 1.3

1.03 wasn't a hotfix, but was a full blown patch. There is no basis fore there patch numbering system afaik.

1.03 wasn't a hotfix, but a full blown patch.

Dude you need glasses I didn't say 1.03 I said 1.3 There is a basis for their patch numbering system. eg patch 1.1 was the original SF patch that came with SF, 1.12 was the hotfix. 1.2 was a full blown patch 1.21 was a hotfix, see how it works now?

I know what you said, and I already have glasses. The 1.03 patch doesn't fit into your theory because it was a full blown patch.

1.0 beta game

1.01 patch/hotfix to original game
1.02 hotfix

1.03 patch

1.1 patch (included in SF according to you)
1.12 hotfix

1.2 patch
1.21 hotfix


Do you see how it works? I don't.

Yup I do they just made you believe that 1.03 was a full blown patch when it wasn't.

Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

It was actually the biggest patch to date, and took months to release so I don't see how it was a hotfix.

When it comes down to it, its really academic. Just because they don't call a patch a hotfix doesn't mean its not a bandaid fix for the previous patch. They didn't call 1.12 a hotfix though it obviously was. The term hotfix in itself is really a silly term.

Going to the reason why I named 1.22 a hotfix for the hotfix is based on their patch numbering process which they said what they would do after 1.12. That was they announced they were going to support the community with patch 1.2 then the next was going to be 1.3 No mention was made past this patch numbering as to further support. 1.2 was supposed to be the "super patch" everyone was waiting for. It was a failure and even DICE/EA would admit to this now if they had to ala patch 1.21 hotfix.

I agree 1.03 was more than the hotfix type of patches we were use to but, it still wasn't anything major, they just lead us to believe it was. When it came down to it the main change was not allowing more than 1 person in any vehicle to count towards a flag cap.

If DICE/EA were to call 1.22 the hotfix for the hotfix it would be rather embarassing, well it should be, therefore they will probably try and make out its a full blown patch but do you really believe it will be? I don't and I'm sure nobody else will be fooled by it either.

EDIT remember patch 1.01 It merely hard coded some features that couldn't be changed like the number of tickets, the spawn time, can't password a ranked server etc. It wasn't called a hotfix either but guess what it really was.

Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

Only big thing about 1.03 and the reason it was so big because it was the only patch to contain a new map, wake island. Other that that it wasn't really a major patch on the core game itself.

Agreed, whilst 1.01, 1.03 and 1.12 weren't called "officially" a hotfix, guess what they really were.

By biggest I mean contained the most fixes and adjustments to gameplay, and not the actual size of the download.

Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

Yeah you're right. Just looked up the details on 1.03 and it was a massive patch.
For some reason i just remembered it mostly being about wake, but there is stacks of stuff in it.

Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

I think EA/Dice are doing a great job. BF2 is such a diverse game. There is so much you can do, as compared to other games. 6 different kits, with 5-6 weapons/items each, dozens of vehicles, online stats, ranking systems, squad systems, etc etc. With all that, there's bound to be bugs that need to be worked out. At least they ARE doing something. Some games hardly ever get patched.

Re: Patch 1.22 Hotfix for the Hotfix being tested

If you don't like BF2 & the new patches.. why are you playing BF2 then?
Yes, you paid for it and accepted the terms. Right? So drop your whining guys.. getting sick of all those threads / posts with "I hate EA/DICE, fix my jet so that I can pwn again!" etc!

BF2 is a game,
Patch is a name,
Forget the name,
And play the game!

sometimes i feel like "hardly getting patched" is a good thing dude... when the game came out i could play 1024x768 high settings now is 800x600 medium, before the patches came out i never got crashed to the desktop, now it happens everyday, before the last patch i could filter servers by map, after the patch that was supposed to fix it (when it has allways worked for me), it just doesnt work anymore, before the patches you didnt see someone with a PKM sniping you from accross the map, before the patches u didnt see ppl killing you with PKM's while running like they were normal machineguns....

see what i mean, and these are just the probs i remember.
