Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

Only need to play Harvest now from Armoured Fury, the highway map, Road Rage is it? Was awesome, now that the AA works I don't get bombed into oblivion by everything when I set foot outside, you can still use the bombers (got to fly that SU thing not the A10 ) but you got to be smart because the linebackers will own you otherwise; Stingers even work!

The EU maps seem cool as well, also think I have one more to play on that, the oilfield map is great fun but can be really hard, managed to get an entire squad in armour and things went much better, tanks blend in really easy on that map and because the AA works I found the helis flying low often, where they could taste my lovely tank gun

I enjoy BF2 a lot more now tbh, solo choppering still annoys me somewhat but only ever seems to happen on Wake which I have never liked much in BF2, just need a pilot to do something about it

No. The european army was added with EF with their own equipment.

I must say I am quite excited to play AF and EF :)

Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

I had a really hard time finding any HTTP or even FTP download links yesterday. The fastest download I found was on some UGO sister-site that maxed out at about 150kbps. Took a quick scan through newsgroups and found someone who had uploaded the patch, got 1.4 MBps after that, took about 20 minutes to download :p (gotta love usenet).

It's nice to see servers playing Roadrage, it's a pretty good map when you have 60+ players on it, there are a couple of decent bottle necks, but at the same time there's still plenty of room to make long runs with jeeps/DPVs.

Liking this so far, too bad SF isn't included, would have liked to seen Ghost Town and Warlord in these new server rotations.

PS. The fog on blue pearl is just too brutal sometimes, especially going across the bridges at the top of the map.

Took me 6 and a half hours to download lol. Not sure why it was downloading so slow yesterday.

Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

The new startup time is awesome when combined with removed intro movies. :)

Did anyone else notice that the 2D graphics on the HUD and commo rose are messed up? I'll post a screenshot later.

And try this config tweak, it's supposed to reduce prone deviation. http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...e-control.html

Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

I just reinstalled the game. Installed patch 1.41, then installed patch 1.5. When I go to start up the game it says

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\NovintHFX.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error."

Does anyone know how to fix this? Yesterday when I installed the 1.5 patch on my previous install of BF2, it said the same error except it was "memory.dll" instead of the NovintHFX.dll file. I'm running Vista 64-bit.

Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

Has anybody else noticed that the jeeps are extremely tail happy - they drift on corners much more than they used to. I ended up getting a tank-slapper halfway across the map. At least nobody has a hope in hell of shooting me while I'm driving. I noticed it in the boats too. I turned 90 degrees to run up a slipway and the boat slid right off the side with me underneath it.

I think DICE mentioned that they have altered the vehicle handling in the new BF games but I wasn't expecting it in a patch for BF2. Nice tho.

The sprint lasts much longer too (as others have mentioned) - cool.

The new map Operation Pearl Necklace is a complete cluster-f**k. It's like a 40 second sprint between flags with corners round corners round corners, I quite like it - it's very different.

Finally patch installation:

patch 1.41 - 536Mb - 30 minute installation

patch 1.5 - 1.93Gb - 4 minute installation (and that is with no booster maps pre-installed)

Well done DICE Sweden.

Ding ding ding!

Which is where torrents excel. I downloaded at 1Mb/s by the end. It took about 1.5 hours for the torrent. Sadly, I didn't even try it until after three failed attempts at getting it via regular download sites...

Re: Battlefield 2 1.5 Patch Released

Odd stuff today...a guy was shooting at me when I was standing still, I could hear the bullets hitting me, but I took no damage at all from them. He kept hitting me (or so it seemed) for almost 2 seconds until I proned, still at 100% health. Odd.

Sometimes I can snipe people with my assault rifle, sometimes my bullets don't hit a guy 5 feet in front of me. I'm not sure whether it's hit registration or if I'm just not used to the new added deviation.

Also, someone called me a hacker! I felt like a pro

This happened to me too. I was standing still, being shot from behind from not to far away, and I didn't take damage and I was the only friendly around so it wasn't teammates doing it.
