    TGN Battlefield Update and Vietnam Release Date

    A few diffferent members are reporting different news on the forums today.


    The first is that the Bad Company 2 patch is being released now. Various members have reported their clients getting updates. To remind everyone, these are the following fixes for PC:

    - Acog and Red dot scope now equippable on MK-14 and G3.
    - Fixed an issue where the Bullet Tracers wouldn't display
    - Fixed an issue where Play Now wouldn't work
    - Added Ticket Count for Conquest end of round.
    - Added the server info to the objectives screen.

    As the servers get updated with the patch, players may experience outages and/or lag. Thanks to stilla-killa and Amaranthuse on this information. It is a large patch of 2.6GB. The patch is reportedly large due to all the maps and expansion information in it.

    Minmaster reports the MG36 scope in hard core mode is broke again.

    Finally, =MNKY= Frosty has posted that Steam is giving the release date of the Vietnam Expansion as December 18th.

    You can pre-order on Steam now at this site:
    Get ready for a whole new war, as DICE's massively popular online shooter Battlefield: Bad Company™ 2 makes the journey back to the 60's and the infamous Vietnam war.


    That is all the updates at this time. Thanks all for posting.

    UPDATE:
    Golfisfun found this out on the Vietnam and Map Pack 7 release dates:
    Just saw on Facebook that they are doing MP7 Wed and Vietnam on the 18th is if you preorder, 21st for everyone else AND PS3 is Dec 22nd

    http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/batt...y-2-vietn.aspx

    So Map Pack 7 comes out tomorrow and if you pre-order Vietnam on Steam or the EA Store, you can play it on the 18th. Buy it later and you get it on the 21st/22nd.

              So are all four maps coming tomorrow or just two? I can't go to the blog because for some reason it screws up trying to log me into my account.

                  Damn I have bad performances since this patch, it's annoying. I hope it's because of the servers who don't have the update or something like that otherwise I don't think I'll enjoy wasting 13€ in Vietnam.

                    servers will have performance issues for few days while people are downloading the patch. they warn you and have in the past also whenever patches came out.

                      I have bad performances in term of frames per second not internet, I have some stuttering and lower fps than before. Maybe it's because of the servers but it would be strange, and I've seen some people on the official website with monster computer and bad performances since patch R7 or 8.

                        5 changes, 5 BC2 maps, and a Vietnam expansion.

                        Not entirely sure the Vietnam expansion is in there though.

                          All the new maps are coming tomorrow as I understand it. The Vietnam expansion is out on the 18th.

                              Its OK 5t3v0,

                              Now that Vietnam is almost out and Christmas is coming, I bet Steam will have some really good bundle deal.
