1.2 Patch Released!

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

I think EA/Dice have really dropped the ball with this patch. I must have played 1 hour tops since i installed it when it was first released. It just seems totally different to the original game and the fun has gone out of it.

I agree.

I decided I had to register here to voice my disgust with what I feel is happening to a great game experience. Dice + EA are digging themselves deeper with every "patch" they release.

This is my opinion and people can disagree, but I think the game has just been dumbed down for the whiners.

I never cared about the bunny-hoppers. I would see them jumping around and just shoot at them. I would never engage them though. I would just take a few pot shots as I made my way to the real battle. Dolphin-diving same thing. Who cares ? In a game of 32 people maybe one or two people are doing it. And they are probably just trying to get the knife badge. Big deal. Just move on.

Not being able to jump and shoot is lame. Sometimes I want to jump over sandbags and kill the guy hiding behind them. I want to jump around a corner and kill the guy waiting with a knife to dolphin dive me! I want to toss a medbag or ammo bag to my team mates pinned down. I want to place mines without having to run to the exact location of each mine. Yes, tossing C4 by some people was weak, so fix just that issue. How many people were livid before by players tossing medbags ?

I used to like flying the helicopters. Now they suck. I am an average user. I'm not elite. I am a regular user who used to enjoy playing choppers alot. Not anymore. I'm not looking for realism. If I wanted that I would go join the frickin' Army and get shipped off to DurkaDurkastan. I want fun. This patch has reduced the amount that I, an average user is having.

My game play is worse now than it was before. My game lags more, is choppy, buggy and just not as fun.

The only thing I felt was lame in the game before was being constantly bombed by the Jets.

I will not buy another Dice or EA product again unless I see some drastic changes in the QA of the products I already own.

Exactly. All it would take is seeing ONE person doing either out of the 30-60 people playing on that server and people here (and at other forums) knee-jerked so hard they busted their chins and started acting like it was a damn game-ruining epidemic. Anytime someone on ANY of the servers I played on started doing this they would be gone in under 30 seconds by an admin. But hey, so many of you wanted it fixed, who cares if it completely screwed up ALL the other aspects of a game.

Not being able to jump and shoot is lame.

Wait what?

Not being able to jump and shoot is lame.

Exactly. It's like I went from playing an online FPS to playing freaking tiddlywinks at Kindercare. I mean an action/online FPS game where anytime you jump you are totally exposed and cannot do any action is just.. LAME.
But glad all the crybabies could get exactly what they wanted.

I used to like flying the helicopters. Now they suck.

Yup. Won't be too long before people realize that making it hard for the "leet" players to fly also makes it damn near impossible for anyone else to be able to fly as well.

I mean.. Hello.. When everone stops fellating everone else over the planes/choppers being neutered they just might realize that. Other than a means to get from the carrier to land the BH is now nearly useless unless its in the hands of a super-duper experienced flyer. And where are they all at.. Oh yeah. EA/DIce and the BF2 community just ran a lot of them off. Way to go guys.

My game play is worse now than it was before. My game lags more, is choppy, buggy and just not as fun.

Screwed textures, screwed sounds, screwed animations, screwed netcode. But according to a majority it was worth it to stop that one single person that would pogo across the map and go prone and snipe ya while in mid-air. Cause we all know whining to EA to have the game totally changed is much easier than to notify a game admin or *gasp* find a better server to play on.

The only thing I felt was lame in the game before was being constantly bombed by the Jets.

That was sorta lame at times, not as lame as the blackhawk thing, but could still be lame. But hey, to fix the blackhawk they had to screw all the other vehicles in the game. So who cares if they screw flying completely just so the whiny babies can be happy.

I will not buy another Dice or EA product again unless I see some drastic changes in the QA of the products I already own.

The changes I want to see are the same damn changes that I've been wanting to see since I purchased this game last August. Just fix the freaking bugs in the game. Quit molly-coddling all the damn whiners and borking the game with gameplay/balance patches and fix the actual damn bugs in the game. Many of the bugs people are finally seeing now have been around since the damned demo. Just that the more EA fix the whiniing the more the bugs are exposed so hope all you whiners enjoy all the bugs you now see with your precious gameplay fixes. It's been totally worth my money to have the game gimped everytime a patch comes out with hardly a bug being fixed.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Regarding the bunny hope... there were not 1... not 2... but many of them... it does **** the **** off... it's not possible to play with bunnies... jump/C4... jump/shoot... you can't even ****ing aim at them, cuz they jump and while jumping move right left back etc etc etc they don't just jump in one place... they were like some ****ing overdosed bunnies... so, thank to THEM for these changes. And I'm glad finre while jump has been take out - now I laugh at those ****ing morons who still keep bunny jumping and get shot while doing so... **** ont them! Now it takes more skill to play on the ground as well... and it's hella fun! Except for the obvious bugs i.e. sound ****ed up, lagging, stupid jet-2-jet is a joke now.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Who here agrees that Valve who made Half Life 2, should have made a "Battlefield" game....where the physics, and game mechanics would be waayyy better than what this year 10 DICE have done!

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

*sigh*


This patch introduced extreme stuttering to the gameplay on my machine . It will freeze for a second , respond for a second ,and repeat this cycle infinitely .I thought that maybe I used the wrong patch , as I had used the full patch and not the incremental . So I uninstalled BF2, reinstalled it and tried the full patch again . I still had the same problem . So now I'm reinstalling it again , and I refuse to use this patch . Maybe I'll try the next patch that comes out if they address the issue , but after reading this thread , it seems only 3-4 people HERE have the same problem , and EA will probably not be terribly concerned .A shame , really , as I had so looked forward to being able to use the night vision on SF.


My final analysis is that this patch is the devil !

Well apparently if your using an ATI card, then thats why, their "awesome coding" has caused some buffering issues, and so, the new 1.21 patch is going to fix that, HOPEFULLY with the rest of all this ******** new stuff they have added

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

AMEN to that m8y

yep you bust your ass in your little 2 man squad pullling of tactics that would make James Bond cry just to get a flag. Over and Over again. Killing peeps left right and center.
then pilot joe with his 70/2 top of the board at the end of round kinda pi55es you off. I like piloting, Ive only had maybe 10 hours in total in a plane, but in that short time Ive become quite good, in the rare occasion Ive jumped in one its lasted me the whole round and Ive often felt a little bit guilty too, racking up lots of kills while the AA is whizzing past me time after time. And theres me in the air killing folks and not lifting a damn finger to actually help win the game/round.

I say good on ya EA! this aint a dogfighting game, now its balanced and you'll have to adapt. Why dont you try actually helping getting flags with your team! End of story.

Ok, go suck EA's testicles....

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

I have an ATI card and I too am suffering. This is not good and if there isn't a patch by Wed., than I will be ****ed. Patience though people; if it goes any longer though than we should start getting physical with EA.

all together now--->

Put that perfectly Han...I agree with you all the way...umm its "battlefield" right? as in many aspects to the game...not infantry war, air combat, heli match up, not even armor pound your asses back and forth...battlefield...sooooo if you "nerf" (or screw it up as i say) the game with a patch that takes the air aspect out...you need to rename and give me my money back( oh and for those that will reply with uninstall...why not go Fk yourself and you uninstall..it was your whine and btch that got us here in the first place)... I love how the noob pilots talk trash to me now when no one could touch me before...if i got in the air...you never got out of the first base...mean while my team was kicking the flags asses and winning the game...so as I said the AIR POWER is important and should have been left alone.... BTW the previous anti-air was plenty good... if you were a noob you deserved to be shot down...nuf said...

But on a more realistic point of view, I was in the Marine Corps and worked with EW (electronic warfare...ie anti-air ) and the kill probability was no where near that of what these canadians (DICE) are trying to portray...dont they know that mounties dont have missles up their horses asses?

bunny hope? hope for the bunny??
Have you ever shot a real gun>?<O:p></O:p>
....????<O:p></O:p>
Have you ever played paintball at least? <O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT EVEN IN PAINTBALL I HOP, JUMP, ROLL, AND DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO NOT GET SHOT...so if you cannot do the things others could in the game( ie bunny hop and not get pwnt)...maybe you needed a little more single player action??????? <O:p></O:p>
MY POINT IS THAT ALL THIS PATCH DID WAS HELP OUT THE NO SKILL PLAYERS... ya know just as the army has stress cards for its recruits so if they get yelled at too loud they can have a time out....please!!! get into the real mans military...join the corps...that’s what this fkn game had as its military...but noooo marines don’t jump, or dive, or do any evasive maneuvers ....fkn tards HOPE YOU READ THIS DICE...freeze your balls off up there in canuk land with the elk....<O:p></O:p>

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

The bunny hoppers never really bothered me that much. I was able to kill them about 50% of the time. If I died, I just chalked it up to not being fast enough to kill them. Firing an AT rocket at a tank and watching it go right through it, yeah, now I'm gonna complain about that...

I spent 6 years in the Marine Corps, and I like the realism this game has to offer, with the few obvious exceptions, and bunny hopping---albeit a trivial thing--is not really possible nor practical in the real world. You can't really hop around like a rabbit on PCP (in 4 foot bounds?) and aim and fire your weapon with any kind of accuracy. In that respect, EA is keeping it real.
