Re: Community Update - 2/16/06

I generally love what patch did for the game, I feel everything is very balance now. 2 AA rockets will not kill a plane (hurt it up to 4 or 5 bars left) so I think that is fine. I not so pleased with all the bugs, that interfer with game play. There is just too much of them around, especially for the AT kit. AT rocket have always from time to time gone "through" stuff, but now it is even worst. Not to metion that "double" rocket effect if you try to fire your rocket right after you jump. If you press fire again, you will have two rockets in the air, HOWever only one of them are "real". So this makes ATing even more difficult.

Re: Community Update - 2/16/06

you know that like i said before the AA should not have the kill probability that is has, commonly in the "real world" (as i think this game is trying to portray) kills with AA do not happen that often.. there is just too much that the offending aircraft(to include heli's) can do to avoid missle lock much less a kill... that needs to be changed... also last time i had a c4/HE pack in my hands i could toss it about 30 feet...so that needs to come back...not the shooting and jumping but the jumping and tossing..to include the med pack....DICE you copy???

Stop right there, BF series was, is and shall always be more arcade than sim, things which wouldnt happen in RL do happen in BF for balance reasons.

Also they are not about to change the C4 back to the way it was, so get used to it.

1 Screaming Child does not mean a whole nursery is upset.

with all due respect:

You'll have more screaming children when they see the size of their bugs that crawl into the crib.

I like the patch - but the glaring presence of some major bugs make it look like you did a real shotty job at testing. Call me a whiner - but I've done some testing in my day, and if the devs put out that patch I would have them remove my name from the credits.

Shut Up

Try being a half decent company and test the patch on more than one computer.





My friend at school experiences these graphical errors as well, click on the images and you can read up on the baby's complaints at the 'nursery' - individual problems with this patch. The people who don't experience any errors, are probably too excited about no C4 whoring and no nube tubing that they didn't take the time to notice how overpowerred the support and sniper class is. Many people do not experience this performance gain but rather a major decrease in performance.

Do not insult us by saying there are only problems for a few people - Try reading the forums, click on the pictures, many people are pist.

although i do agree with the 'shut up' comment 100% i have to disgrad ur problems with 1.2 patch, i had those graphical glitches on my 6600 256mb card, happend every now and then, this was before 1.2 was released (2-3 months ago to be precise) i got a new card now and its gone, either way, u might need new drivers or something, dont take it the rong way, but is you, not the patch, i do agree with everything else in your post though

Agreed except for one thing: noob tubing is very much alive. People are to busy mulling over their false sense of security. The 5 minutes I could tolerate of the patch on a ranked server, I managed to kill a good deal of people with the M203 with ease. And I can still hop like a bunny while reloading, or fire at the ground to kill at shorter distances. The patch did nothing but play as a placebo for the retards out there that can't hit the broad side of any building in Karkand.

I highly doubt it is me, my friend who has never experienced this graphical issue pre patch 1.2, experienced it after 1.2. I who experienced this after 1.2 patch, never even seen something close to this before 1.2 patch. Updating my drivers could work but its still a pathetic and crap job by whoever designed this patch. Lets say the problem is on my end, that problem is NOTHING compared to the performance issues me and many others are suffering from, my FPS drops to 10 - frequently!

Omg but the list litteraly goes on and on.
A new found Medic bug (now that the defibs recharge whilst not in use, he can *Clear!* (switch knife) *Clear!* within seconds.
Blackhawk bug which someone was talking about (constant flares)
Buildings disapearing? Come on !

If your idea of balance is the same as setting an 18-wheeler on one end of a scale and a Miata on the other, then you might have a point.

Re: Community Update - 2/16/06

Good idea.

Edit: I was playing the demo and realised, it's just sad... Me playing the demo, when I have the full game purchased, is just horrible. I am not the only one, I was playing on the server with many other people who have purchased the full game, and resorted to the demo for its better performance...

It really is sad that a company could let such a great game slip, not once (vietnam), not twice (1.01), but three times. Some people would even regard it as four times because 1.03 disabled stunting, and the ranking system was blown to pieces, and the difficult ranks were handed to us (rewards and ribbons etc. were good adjustments however the ranks, were just patheticly given away).
