1.2 Patch Released!

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Glad some people are seeing this patch for what it is - garbage. Unstable, bad decision on gameplay changes and causes performance degredation. Now vote with your wallet by foregoing anymore DICE games and/or expansion packs and buy Enemy Territory: Quake Wars when it comes out later this year. That game is where the skill and action will be.

I completely agree. Having all the people like you playing queer wars rather than bf2 will make this game 10 times better than it is now!

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

The patch is not that bad, however I have some complains:
1. The red/blue tag bug is still here
2. There are still lots of browser problems.
3. The decision to make the mines(AT/claymores) not triggerd by friendly units, is bit of a risk - in my humble oppinion of course. I agree that the claymore is nearly 100% teamkill, but now it is a 100% kill with the only drawback of limited quantity. However nearly every fourth kill after the patch is with PKM, so one should not worry about resupply. Just spam claymores and you will see the result. Put at commander assets, corners, doors, narrow places - whereever you want. The same with ATmines - "mark" every vehicle spawn with a mine - you won`t make a teamkill, and sooner or later an enemy will make your day. Besides, puting mines in this manner guarantees that the only enemy who could possibly steal your vehicle is an engineer, and not before he sapp the mines. In a real game such task is almost impossible.
4. I have a feeling that after a while everybody will start to complain about "mgwhoreing", do not uderstand me wrong I realy do like "mg" improvements. But I think that most of the community won`t like it.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Why is everyone against Quake Wars before it's even out? I'm looking forward to it but I love BF2. I'm pretty sure there's room in my heart for a "second runner up". Plus it's a new multiplayer game. New's nice. =P

I have nothing against it, just making a point...

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

I just installed BF2..
Do I need the previous patches? Or do I only need this patch?

..sorry if this is the wrong topic to post in..

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Get the 350+ MB version, not the incremental.

You can download the full patch rather than the incremental if you have just the original bf2.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

....
i just finished dling the incremental patch
i installed it
started up bf2
i look at the version - 1.1.26blahblahblah
i'm thinking "isn't that the 1.12 patch?"
i go to a bf2 server
none of the updates were there (eg. GL change, helo change, etc.)
so, i try to install the 1.2 incremental again
ERROR : "must have 1.12 in order to use this update"
restart my comp
try again
ERROR : "must have 1.12 in order to use this update"
install 1.12 patch AGAIN
then tried installing 1.2 incremental patch
ERROR : "must have 1.12 in order to use this update"

um
whats going on?

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

The only people bitching are people who used to dolphin dive and thought this was perfectly normal and vultures who could only play inside a plane and thought they were f*cking l33t players just because they could score their massive kills. Here's a news flash for these people: aircraft were unbalanced; AA was useless. It's not your skills that made you rank that much kills; it was the game's lack of balance. A balance that is being brought forth now.

Instead of bitching that you have your precious toy taken away from you, realize you're on the same level other people are now. Try learning to play as a soldier for a change instead of just repeatedly exploiting on what was previously the most powerful killing vehicles on the game.

Right on. The air attack was too powerful on maps. Now they have to use skill to fight the enemy. Fear my AA.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

the problem is not in the patch but in the game itself..
it is still so ****ing buggy and unfinished. its not even like some stable beta

its like open beta version, but it is PAYED.
i love this game but somethimes it makes me wonder to laugh or to cry when some bug occures for 20952058023580th time.
bug = kind of anomality, stupidity ... whatever and program error too

yah we pay for the pain
is that normal?
EA/DICE u ****in money makers!
do your job for the money u take (..in advance) and push yuor freak called battlefield 2 to final stage

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

waaaaaaaaaHHHHhhhhhhh!!!!!!! I'm never playing BF2 again, I'm waiting on something else coming out so I can BITCH ABOUT THAT INSTEAD!!!

Bunch of whining loosers, bu%%er off then and play something else. Cryin you eyes out cos you die 8 times in a server and only get 15 kills. Yeah we've seen you and you other 5 buddies hangin round waiting to rush for the ONLY plane to appear. So you can't get your 80/2 anymore??? awwwww shame.

As for "alls a person should do to get a kill is hop in the aa and click his mouse button". FFS all a person has to do is aim properly and let of 5 or 6 rounds to get a kill as well! Oops wait, the guys on the ground don matter do they, I mean..... "THE F*%KING AUDACITY THEY HAVE TO SHOOT AT US l337 PILOTS, IT'S A DISGRACE AND I'M NOT PLAYING ANYMORE."

Boo f&*king hoo.

Like most people you've missed the point.

I've always agreed that the AA missiles are vastly underpowered and needed to be changed. The thing that bothers me is that EA have oversimplified one of the more technical and enjoyable aspects of the game.

I don't really care about my score or a 100:1 ratio. I only care because the days of dogfighting with skilled aviators are over.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

Also don't like you can't run and nade/C4.
And yes, lies :) The server browser is now slower than it was pre-patch, least for me.

And don't think anyone said anything against QW. Just seems wierd to say "whine whine this sucks i'm off to play a game that's not yet out, over this one" :)

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

competitive play should be very interesting now that theyve changed pretty much every aspect of the game.. and whats up with all the new bugs (on top of the old ones no less)? it seems as if they didnt play test it.

Re: 1.2 Patch Released!

GOD THIS PATCH STINKS!!!
For 1 they ruined the accuracy on the AK-101 (MEC Assault weapon)
2 what they call an exploit, where u sprint and then prone. How can they call that an Exploit!!! They do it themselves in the movie where the medic runs accross gunfire whilst loading his weapon!!! And alot of other ******** i didnt like that i shall not share coz their minor..

And also that C4 Crap that someone else said... bah what an idiotic patch!!
Bye bye BF2: sf see ya in the next patch!!
