November 23, 200520 yr All I've noticed is they added the EA emblem at the bottom of the opening screen and now in the clan tag area you can actually see what you typed , it isn't blank anymore. I will post more developments as I find them. Also, I noticed my "verifying" after the loading time is very short now like I mean super short all of a sudden.

November 23, 200520 yr Author Here is all I find about patch and it is all about SF add on. Special Forces Unlocks In anticipation of the upcoming expansion pack, Battlefield 2 Special Forces, DICE has revealed the new unlocks for the game. Take note, in order to unlock these, you must first have unlocked the base Battlefield 2 weapons for that kit (for example: to be get the F2000 the user must first unlock the G3). Scar-L for Spec Ops G36E for Medic F2000 (w/ grenade launcher) for Assault MP7 for Engineer MG36 for Support Update v1.12 The next Battlefield update is now available. ALL Battlefield 2 owners should install it. And yes, we have a list fixes and enhancements for you. IMPORTANT If you've installed the 1.12 update to the "core" Battlefield 2 product and then installed Battlefield 2: Special Forces afterwards, you will need to re-apply the 1.12 update to be able to play on the new 1.12 Servers. BUG FIXES Fixed a crash when users switch weapons using the mouse wheel while piloting a bomber (SU-34, F-15 and J10) in core BF2 maps. Removed the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line from kits from "The Iron Gator" map. Fixed single player loading screens to match map selection image. Fixed an issue in the menus so that users can click on BF2:SF ribbons to view the descriptions. Fixed an issue in the Browser so that BF2:SF servers are now represented with a green "2" icon. Global improvement of collision detection on the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line. Fixed damage state artillery icon on the 3d map when an artillery is destroyed. CHANGE of VIDEO SPECS GeForce FX 5900 family: GeForce FX 5900 Ultra GeForce FX 5900 GeForce FX 5900XT GeForce FX 5950 Ultra GeForce FX 5900ZT GeForce PCX 5900 For these cards, the default video settings have been changed to LOW. UPDATE TO GRAPPLING HOOK AND ZIP LINE DESCRIPTION GRAPPLING HOOK The GRAPPLING HOOK is part of the Assault and Anti-tank kits. Throw it using the fire or alternate fire buttons. Press "E" to get on and off of the rope. Use the direction keys to climb the rope. The rope will connect to any static object in the world, which means it will not work on terrain or vehicles. Any Assault or Anti-Tank kit can pick up any grappling hook, even those from other teams, as long as you do not already have one in your kit at the time. ZIP LINE The ZIP LINE is part of the Special Forces and Sniper kits. Use the fire button to shoot the line and use the alternate fire button to check if the target is a viable connection point or not. Once the line is in place, use "E" to get on. You will slide down the line automatically. Any Spec-Ops or Sniper kit can pick up any zip line, even those from the other team, as long as you do not already have one in your kit at the time.

November 23, 200520 yr they also lowered the system requirements a bit. i had to readjust my settings because the settings i was happy with prior to the patch were too low after the patch. other than that didnt really notice anthing too different. cant wait to try out special forces.

November 23, 200520 yr Author it's too bad it didn't fix that stupid M203/Gp30 annoyance or the commanders getting basicly 0 points for anything they do or the enemy color on guys that are on your team because this is all still there as far as I can tell.

November 23, 200520 yr What really suck is when i try to install it, it says i must have atleast 300 mb free on my hard drive. 2 drives one with over 3 gigz free and th second over 20? I'm really starting to hate EA now. Any suggestions would be appreciated greatfully.

November 23, 200520 yr Author Well if you hated EA before now check this out. If you want to compete with the unlocks you now have to buy Special Forces to get the unlocks that other players will have in Regular BF2. Fair? I don't think so, they could have kept the two separate. UNLOCKING (unlocks from Special Forces can be used in normal BF2) - While on maps from Battlefield 2: Special Forces, you have the abiltiy to unlock weapons from Battlefield 2: Special Forces to use them on maps from the original BF2. These unlocks are seen as second degree unlocks. The ordinary Unlocks are seen as first degree unlocks. you first must unlock the first degree weapon from a specific kit before you can unlock the second degree weapon. Like with the assault kit you first need to unlock the G3 in order to unlock the F2000 for this kit.

November 23, 200520 yr What a bunch of bull. As far as i've seen only some unlocks in reg BF2 are good anyways. I bet the new ones aren't that great. But who said anything about EA being fair lol what a joke. They take money and give nothing in return except broken promises and buggy software.

November 23, 200520 yr Author Yes, the unlocks aren't spectacular. I like the L85 even on full auto very accurate and the G3 but other than that I can use normal weps no problem with no loss of performance. Seems like EA has already put BF2 on the backburner because they are letting BF2 specops play on regular BF2 servers and hardly anything done to patch BF2. Weird guys or money hungry.

November 23, 200520 yr I love the new patch. Nothing works anymore. I cant play BF2 and i cant play BF2-SF. I have the same problems with the new patch, like i had, with the old one. Thanks EA.
