Battlefield Patch 1.03 In the Works

[fw.Vercingitorix]

I wonder if they're going to implement defense points (For defending the CO assets, same radius as flag) for those stuck at the back lines seeing no action until some lone spec-ops tries to c4 something.

Otherwise there isn't much of an upside to staying back and defending and it'll get old quick running back to repair every now and then.

I believe DICE is fixing those bugs, EA are probably shoving money out of their ass.

Actually it's EA whose looking at all the bugs in bf2 right now and trying to correct the problem. Ive been contacted personally by EA about help with reporting bugs to them.

Hopefully no more BlackHawk raping. Fun to do but really ruins my favorite map, Mashtuur City... ends a game real fast. That thing is like a flying fortress when loaded up and only takes seconds to turn the control point.

Agreed... I dont play Mashtuur City any more because of the damn BlackHawk raping. I really hope they fix this to.

August. Christ. :/

1)I hope they only increase the time in BH flag capping. It doesn't need to get nerfed. This way they will have to stay longer and very dangerous for them.

2)Point farming - Improve the other kits and not nerf the others. It's already ridiculous enough to reach your next rank w/ the points we're getting but limit revives for the same person ony 4 times. Repairs to vehicles should be easier.

3)Chat feature in the main menu.

4)BFRecorder controls for client side too.

What about recieving engineer points for removing enemy mines? for example removing MEC mines in Strike Of KarKand on the roads etc? any suggestions?

Well, it definately sounds like they've been listening to us and finally DICE can fix these problems. I just hope they don't go overboard and end up causing more problems. Would love to know more, especially the TK changes.

Shame it's going to be a month away, but if that's what it's going to take to get it to work and work properly then so be it.

Well, they admit that the quality does not live up to their own standards.

I think this is a step in the right direction. The game is pretty awesome but the

in-game brower really sux. I am sure 1.03 will make this game excellent.

:evil:

WOOT!

Update: EA has sent out a email

This fix will be the same as the previous patches, and will require a new hotfix over and over again. Nice going EA, you ruined a nice game for me. And for the people saying that every game has flaws, well thats true. But one might expect to get a better product, certainly with EA having the experience with BF42 and BFV. No EA, Ill stick my money in my pocket and play some more BF42.

Also yet another sign the game was rushed to the stores, what with all these new features being implemented, don't you think?

Still, good stuff. I'm sure it'll be very welcome.

If the launch of the game had been delayed by another month or two, had you not complained? This is a trade-off I can definately live with. :p

[winston]

Glad they`re doing it but it`s nothing to get ecstatic about as it`s should of been implemented in the retail version...

I just can't believe all the pessimistic dry comments on here. They release the game with some technical faults. These are adressed within a week, ten days. They then announce a patch to tweak a lot of gameplay things now that they have had the feedback of the community. Still you sarcastically complain that this is not enough. What the hell do you want them to do ? Come and apologize to you for whatever?! Well, actually they already DID do that in this announcement. They also woved to increase number of ranked servers. I think the reponse of EA/DICE despite it being holiday season in Europe has been great. Give the guys a break, looking at your sigs, they have given you double digit HOURS of entertainment for 50 bucks. That is NOT expensive.

This fix will be the same as the previous patches, and will require a new hotfix over and over again.

I am amazed at your capability of forseeing the future. How do you know this about hotfixes ? Do your read in clouds, Tarot or before you flush ?

Give the guys a break. This announcement is as community friendly as we could dream of. What would YOU do in their shoes? :hmm:

[winston]

Is this the Fanboy thread?
Reads like one. :blabla:

It is *not* the sarcastic wise-ass EA bashing thread at least. :|:

Additional scoring changes - players who destroy an enemy commander's assets will be given points.

When I join a server 50% of people are playing spec ops, 20% medic and 30% all the other classes.
With this added I hope that it does not increase the weird ratio of spec ops further, as they are a master class already being able to destroy tanks (and the only class that can destroy arty!?), and have a good weapon.

I do however think this is sensible, but hopefully some other classes will get boosting too :)

Personally I would have liked to be able to destroy arty with tanks etc, as I play assault and I seem a little stupid being near the enemy arty with a tank and not be able to to anything.

But at least they seem to care somewhat, some of the issues should have been fixed sooner though.

*still waiting for name change/clan stuff* :)
