1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

[GameWizard]

With the recent discovery of the patch, we took this great opportunity to get some of the big questions answered. Along with that, we managed to get a hold of the Official change log for 1.2. Here's a snippet:

Since the UAV will now be an actual object in the air, will it be destructable, and will any points be awarded/deducted for its destruction?

Yes, it is destrcuctible. There are no points for destroying the UAV, only for destroying the trailer that goes with it.

How will the new unlockable sniper rifle (L96A1) differ from the other sniper rifles, considering the current rifles will have increased accuracy and damage, how will it hold up?

It follows the same rules for all other unlocks. It is not better than the other rifles, it is just different. As far as how it stacks up, it is on par with the M24.

For the most part, this is finally some great news. Stay tuned for the patch release.

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

Sounds great! Nice work. Hope the bug that occurs switching from single shot to auto has or will been fixed. Patch sounds great though.

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

As far as I can tell, no really new information was released in this interview. It was mostly him just going "We dont know", "It might be added later", or a repeat of something that's been released.

He sounds like a very grumpy person. It seems very this is what we're changing nothing else and if you don't like we don't care.

Sounds like a good patch none the less.

"There has been high demand for new game mods such as Capture the Flag or Supply Lines? Have these been recently re-considered in any future patches?

Because of the constant demand, we are currently considering adding new game modes. However, as I have always stated, I make no promises for what is essentially vapor ware at this time."

I REALLY, REALLY hope they eventually add some new game modes! Soon!

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

To be honest every interview with AJ Marini tell us absolutely nothing, questions are put forth about possible features/changes to the game or bugs that need fixing, and he answers each and every one with "not at this time", or "not that I know of" or "we would like to but I have no idea if we will". Sorry to sound ungrateful but each and every interview has been a total waste of time.

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

Server search filters now work properly

Hopefully they've fixed it this time.

The disappearance of tank projectiles and grenade launcher projectiles during online play has been improved and should occur less frequently

I never knew there was a problem with the projectiles. :|:

• Damage decreased from M134
• Hit points on all air vehicles has been reduced

I wonder, how much has been reduced?

Where did they e-mail these questions to EA tech support? Because it sounds like it.

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

I bunny hopped in '42when i was relaoding, and I think I still do in BF2. Infantry fighting isn't as fun in BF2 as it was in BF1942

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

Get your bunnyhopping over today will be the last day to do it.

Re: 1.2 Patch Pre-Release Interview

It is going to be a great day for people that did not bunny hop, c4 chuck, nube toob or use any other questionable tactics.

Half of the community is going to be kicking butt against the other half that are learning how to play again LOL.
