Yeah, you made a cool map, it would suck to have it swept from under you like that, but keep going.

Make a 73 easting remake.

You know what, EA should (when their full map maker gets up and running), have a system where it is possible for maps to get added to the ranked stuff.

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

Good to see that DICE didn't waste any time fixing the crap that needs to be fixed.

Looks like I can still be punished because some jackass walked into my line of fire or wanted to pet my claymore even though they get a warning.

The game needs a 3-5 second god mode at spawn time so the players can figure out where the hell they are instead of just getting torn to shreds because the enemy started firing before the player even sees them.... or if they spawn in front of a moving vehicle.. or in the middle of a firefight. It sucks to spend 5 minutes of a timed game just jumping from one spawn point to another because the enemy is either spawn camping or the game spawns you into $hit areas.

I would also love to have the ability to do things in my server browser like filter out any servers that are actually populated or not full or pretty much any of the options that you can select...have them work or pull them from the game. Find some better beta testers because the current crop should have caught that crap.

Un-screw the VOIP so it works.

Why the hell does the game take the time to load a map and then end that round before anyone can spawn?

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

What I can't stand is bunny hopping, the noob tube nade launcher that shouldn't be Close Quarter Combat weapons, and "insta-prone". Or how about even the bugs where good guys show up as enemies? IMO ,let's fix some of the major gameplay issues before the stupid "fluff"

BEST QUOTE SAID IN THIS ENTIRE FORUM! VERY NICE!

sending you $100000 through paypal.

nah only joking, but your exactly right about that. If only one more thing got changed, I would choose the 203's to get fixed. I die like 1/3 the time on Karkand from 203's/gp-30's so it's quite stupid and so fake. Hurts the game a ton.

When you look at that map you can see how much further you can see in BF2 compared to BF1942, makes you notice how much bigger the maps are. Now a whole new generation of BF aces can earn their wings by flying under the bridge from the wake demo. :P

As for the bug fixes and new features, they look nice but it's mostly just stuff that should have been fixed in beta testing before the game was released, stuff like the vehicle collisions with players is rediculous that it got into the release.
I hope some tweaking to the TK punish is in the part that wasn't mentioned, I don't know why they would think they could trust the average BF player with that. I wouldn't trust one with a glass of water.

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

I am happy about the server history and server browser fix. The BF2 server browser is one of the biggest POSs I have ever had the misfortune to have to use.
I am happy no more Helo Spawn whoring.
I am happy FINALLY they got the message that there was NO way to take down aircraft and their AA sucked major you know what.
I am glad flares have a reload bar now. Now I have an idea of what the hell is actually happening.
I am also happy that they finally realized how stupid it was to not include player names in your vehicle. You had NO idea who the hell was in your vehicle. I am getting tired of hearing over Comms:"Who's in here riding with me? Who's driving???! Who is on the gun?"
Finally, it will be over.
I am happy SpecOPs will get credit for destroying Commander assests. I have NO clue WHY in the world DICE didn't think of that in the ALPHA version!
I mean, come on! How could you exempt gaining experience points for something as important as that??!!
Finally, I will have a location on where the Supply Drop will be. It is so annoying and hard to get someone to even get you one, and you could sometimes never find it!!!
I mean , NO Icon, nothing. I mean how many times have I been looking up into the sky looking for the Supply Crate and can't find the damn thing?
Now, this will be changed. Finally.
Unintentional vehicle TKing has gotten a little better under control now. A lot of people have learned, but it is still kind of dumb to makeit so that even if you're a foot away, you get killed.If it just rubs you, you die. Very dumb. Didn't they test this stuff first???!
Glad the vehicle physics are improved. Struggling uphill on every single Godforsaken hill with APCs and Tanks is ...........SO................Damn...........ANNOYI NG!
Didn't they test THIS too?? What the hell were they smoking??
I tell you, I am NOT HAPPY that there WON'T be Artillery TKs now. This IMHO is a very bad , bad move.
It is going to get even more "Hollywood" Outer Space now.Where are my Jump Boots and my Dual FlameThrower Napalm Guns with my Powered Armor Suit???!!! I mean will that be in the next patch???!! Or how about I want super Spiderman like skills where I can climb walls and stuff? How about that, huh???!! What's next??? "Bullet time"????!
I guess now I can just stand there out in the middle of an Artillery Strike with a grin on my face as the shells pulverize everything around me but me.
How dumb........

And they STILL haven't done anything about the 10 foot in the air Quake 3 bunny hopping and the "instaprone" crap!
And the ERYX intentionally MISSING aircraft? Have you guys seen that yet?Where there is a helo close enough for you to hit it with the Eryx but just at the last second it veers off in a crazy unnatural way intentionally missing the Helo. Or when there's a Helo close to you doing there Helo Whoring routine and you fire an Eryx right at the cockpit and nothing happens?
And finally, while I am no fan of Wake Island I can understand when the community overwhelmingly WANTS an URBAN MAP, they put out an

ISLAND MAP???
Er, which Planet Earth is DICE/Sweden on? They must be in some sort of parallel universe or something. Because this is so way off mark, I don't know what to think.
Look at Monolith and the details and effort they put into F.E.A.R. It's not perfect, but it's noticeably much more well thought out.

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

dont forget death patch that it will still tk you, just that the commander doesn't get a negative score for it.


They should have done the same with the claymores though...

Plus again I say TAKE OUT THE 203's!!!!!! nah messing, but make them more realistic where they have a distance to blow up.

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

1) what about the people that are already in clans and have there tags on, we should be able to change a permanate name once then never again or something to get rid of the tags to use the new prefix thing.
2)nothing about fixing noob tubers and/or bunny hoppers
4) YAY wake island (i hated that map)
5)OCT release really worked well...
6) if comanders dont get tk points for arty TKs then the team mates getting killed shouldent get a death count from them being tked by arty
as long as the wait was worth it then it will be fine but my guess is that most people will be complaning because they have tag on already and are corp and up... im just barley a corp i sure as hell aint startin over.

dident seam like a list of 140 fixes eh?

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

Severly dissapointed there's no mention of an extra game mode in their current listing EA could have cornered a nice little niche in the FPS market if this game had more game modes.

Like many other games that realised this, Joint Ops, Unreal Tournament etc, they should have included the mode in which you capture the flags in a certain order. This would have made the game much more intense and closely faught and above all, open up the game to more competitive play. I find it unbelievable they havn't included more game modes

As for all the other bug fixes, they should have been put in place the first time around quite simply

Yeah, I agree. If the control points had to be taken sequentially, you'd get some really fun huge battles. As it is now in BF2, all you get for a whole map is just a series of minor skirmishes...

Re: Battlefield 2 Official 1.03 Patch Information

"Auto Team Balance tweaks - Commanders and Squad Leaders now immune to team switch" - AH THANK GOD ! I played as Commander once, and got killed. Then I woke up as a grunt for the opposing team WTF. Glad it's fixed.

And another thing, what does this mean : "Point Farming changes - DICE has implemented functionality that makes it significantly harder to point farm on Ranked Servers"

I agree, when i filter "not full" there appears some servers, which have 30/32 players, and when i try to join it, it says its full! That just sucks.

Un-screw the VOIP so it works.

What do you mean? VOIP works very well with me.

What I can't stand is bunny hopping, the noob tube nade launcher that shouldn't be Close Quarter Combat weapons, and "insta-prone". Or how about even the bugs where good guys show up as enemies? IMO ,let's fix some of the major gameplay issues before the stupid "fluff"

Now thats what im talking about too, i remember that the bunnyhopping should have been fixed in the first patch, but it didnt, and its still in the game. Dice, fix those things, bunny hopping and insta-prone looks stupid.

Last words for the people: read all the posts before you ask anything!

PS. The clantag change and Wake Island sounds great!

Peace :salute:
