Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

NO MORE "In disc checks" w00t! DICE, I love you<3

lol
I think a lot of people made mini-images of their disk a long time ago to achieve the same goal.:p


I for one think it's great they are still working on BF2. What with all the great mods and the vanilla version being awesome as well, BF2 still remains my favourite video game since BF1942.

As to the questions asking why it's taking so long:
Who cares? The game isn't exactly bugged, and if you are a skilled pilot you can hold your own against a J-10 (although if you are the skilled pilot in the J-10, everyone else is pretty much screwed :P ). Also, they probably only had one or two people working on this patch.

Why is stealth and radar being discussed in this topic? It doesn't matter in BF2 because everyone usually flies over the UAV and even if they don't, they pass the UAV so quickly that it doesn't really help. Besides, the maps are so small that you just need to switch views while flying around to find the enemy jets. Radar invisibility won't help you there.

people were talking about uav because its great in theory but it kills gameplay because there is no more sneakiness

as far as the radar signatures in jets (while there is no radar in BF2) - i'm not sure.

There was radar in BF1942.

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

Its going to be such a shame if they not going to give boosterpacks for free because they are rly great. They could bring soo much ppl back into the game whit them. And i dont understand why they are making new maps when they have the boosters enyway ??

The maps in EF and AF would be brand new to me :)

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

i seriously doubt they would make the boosters free because at any software vendor you'll see a bf2 box (9.99) and a bf2 deluxe (19.99) with all the boosters.

I hope the legal thingie is regarding the ranked servers. Hopefully they will get rid of them.

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

Not even sure if this new patch is worth even coming back to BF2.

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

Bu**sh1t, epic bu**sh1t!!!

The F35B is a superior fighter in every way. The J10 is more manoeuverable but it's alot less leathal and less versitile then the F35b.

Also the F35B is invisible to radar, not heat-seaking missles but radar. So the F35B should have advantages in every way. Also the CM system of the J10 is not properly potrayed in BF2. It's way too effective.

Also the F35 is still shall we say in "Testing" because many things aren't

Gameplay > realism in BF2. How would radar stealth help if all the missiles are IR guided in BF2? We don't want the F-35 becoming the new J10 either.

That's why the F35 is a much better ground attack jet than the J10.

The J10 excels in air to air combat.

How is the F35 better against the ground in BF2? I never really tried flying in BF2.

Yes, the SR-71 does not carry any defensive or offensive weapons, not because it is invisible to radar, but because of its speed. Not many air to air or surface to air weapons can catch it or more importantly, REACH it.

The SR-71 is visible on radar, there is nothing to it's shape that makes it invisible. It is not built out of any fancy composites like stealth fighters or bombers. It was built back in the day before these materials were commonplace in the aerospace industry.

The SR-71 relies on its ability to go fast and go high to avoid enemy weaponary.

'Evasive maneuvers' in a SR-71 is accelerating. :)

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

It'll be interesting to see how they play the jet imbalances. I've spent so much time going up against J-10s in my F-35 it'll might feel weird when it's balanced. :|:

I do hope they look at the bigger picture too, and maintain a balance between all the jets. More specifically between the J-10 and F-18.

How is the F35 better against the ground in BF2? I never really tried flying in BF2.

It's a lot more stable, which means it's easier to use the machine gun and bombs. The J-10 tends to shake a lot, and it sometimes feels like it's on rollerskates.

It doesn't matter if you fly over or under the UAV, it will still show you up. Not that it affects gameplay much, not many pilots are checking the map for the enemy jets.

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

no one has commented on the possibility of the legal change being to the ranking system.

someone acknowledge me so that when the news comes and its not even close - I can feel like a jackass!

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

I'd love to elaborate but clueless, anyone spill some beans? who won't get their gonads chopped off?

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

There was radar in BF1942.

Thinking this would bring more skill but too much advantage back, how about deployable uav by aircraft, deploy time to be decided?

May be bounce across the ground a few times, then disguise as a bunny rabbit so not so easy for ground to spot :/

Re: 1.50 Patch News Redux

after what must be years of not playing BF2, this might make me reinstall the game

hope my key hasn't been stolen lol
