Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Noob rejoice, less skill required in BF2 after the next patch!

Explain that, back that up. I don't agree with that at all.

And also, about the sprinting thing, ya I know that you can reload and then start sprinting, I guess they just made it so you can start reloading while sprinting, not a big change.

if someone knows pm me

My God! You spam WAY to much! Already you have accumulated 5 posts on this thread alone... every post is only about 1 sentence long. And some don't even make sense. Please, for the sake of all of us, post one or two meaningful posts, not 5-8 "One sentencers".

ANYWAYS, back on topic, they do seem to be bringing realism back into the infantry part of the game, but as far as helicopters go, they are screwing us over...

nerfing helos.... gay they were fine; 1.12 already screwed up TV's

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Sound like helos are only gonna be airborne targets now, considering how a cars 50. cal rips through them so fast, how AA is gonna be alot more accurate vrs them, how their hp will be lowered, plus missle count will be down nearly to 50% of what it was. Not to metion making the T.V. missles point blank range. Its like they have just made a flying coffin. L33t

Re: Patch 1.2 sounds great...

The thing that really galls me here is that those fix solutions took me NO effort to come up with. I cranked 'em all out on-the-fly because they are painfully obvious.

Maybe I should get back into teaching and invite Dice to my Intro to Game Design 101 class.

I think you should .

I am simply glad that EA has realized the painfully obvious, and is finnaly at least starting in what everyone can agree is the right track, by removing bunny hopping and dolphin diving as tactics. Hopefully they also fixed the stamina exploit by making jumping impossible with no stamina. These few things would help the balance of the game (and PRMM specifically for me).

While I don't agree with some of your points on a realism basis, I do agree that those points would make for a better balanced arcady game.

If anyone ever figures out how to mod a explosion delay into the 203/gp rounds, tell ME or any PR dev immediately, and It'll be implemented in the next version, I gurantee it. Hopefully it'll make it into BF2 vanilla as well.

Overall, it seems 1.2 is a baby step in the right direction, after falling down a flight of stairs the wrong way for the past few months.

Re: Patch 1.2 sounds great...

Just read it all over, I think the Attack heli modifications may suck, but everything else seems good. The Heli changes wont make THAT big of a difference though, TV missiles still will be effective, and the Heli pilot will simply have to be more accurate when lining up his targets.


One question about this...
""Sprint exploit" is now fixed"

What is the sprint exploit? Is that where you Hit jump and sprint in short sucession to get a longer jump? Or is it something else?

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Yeah I'm not happy about the Tv's at all, as far as I'm concerned, no-one complained about that.

Have to say though, the does't have every fix but its looking very nice.
What was the sprint exploit ?
Also, the tubes haven't been fixed have they ?
Fixing a lot of issues is great and all but not fixing tubing will just give it more of an advantage. At least is should be fired like the tear gas.

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Noob Tubes are perfect as they are currently... atleast as far as damage goes. They will be really awesome when you can't jump and shoot with them!

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

the sprint exploit is a timing of jumping just before your stamina bar runs out that enables you to continually have just enough stamina to sprint continuously - so yes if practiced you can run across the map sprinting. I dont know the timing and have never tried - so dont ask me any more info - i just got it off another site where they asked the same thing.

Re: Patch 1.2 sounds great...

Well, I finally went and did it. Signed up for an EA UK account and posted a slightly re-writen version of the change list that folks would be going nuts over if I was PM at Dice.

I've been avoiding the place forever, but I just couldn't let this moronicy stand without a challange.
Here's the post: http://forum.eagames.co.uk/viewtopic...=127397#127397
Bump it/support it if you wanna see Dice smartening up.

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Thank you EA and DICE! Keep your heads cool and don't listen to whiners who rely on bunnyhop and dolphin dive!

Re: Battlefield 2 v1.2 Patch Information

Its like a car company releasing a car which although drives fine for some, others have problems with engines blowing up, wheels falling off and hoards of Gremlins pouring from the boot and gnawing on their heads.
As a solution they tell you to come in for a service where they install a cup holder and give you new hub-caps...

Thumbs up EA
