the huhuhuhuhuhuhu has always been there.

 

As far as me liking the game. I have no clue. I can't say I was dissapointed because I wasn't expecting much from it all. Like I and a few others said earlier. EA/DICE go from one extreme to the next. Something they shouldn't do. They should try the gray area. Go in steps. Like valve or GW. It seems like there is an update everytime I play those games. They don't try to fix everything in one shot. Trying to fix one thing at a time is more efficient when it comes to a computer atleast IMO. The name bug for instance. They stated some where that they couldn't honestly fix it because they didn't know what was causing it. Well with EA/DICE trying to fix EVERYTHING, something new could be causing it. To be honest, I had that bug last night and that was the first time in about a month or so. If they would just implement small patches every week or every other week. I would think they would be better off and not get so much critizim about how stupid/horrible/retarded/lazy they are after this patch to most people. Some people I bet are just wishing they didn't buy this game. Yea, I know this game has a huge amount of potential, but you know for some reason I highly doubt it will ever make it there.

They fixed some problems but screwed some things up imo so what can you do...

K2 just come and play dude.

I tried to last night, but downloaded the broken incremental. It was too late to download the full, uninstall, reinstall and patch - so I'll try to get on in the next couple of days. I'm looking forward to it!

the skill is gone. I havent been playing this game for long, but befor this patch it seemed atlest to me, you needed skills. To be a good sniper, avater, polite a chopper, even a **** tube, overall you had to practice, and develop your skills. I cant survive more then 30sec an any aircraft, all you got to do is lock on, and fire. Flairs dont to nothing. And like Gater was saying the other day, you can always find a chopper, or any aircraft now an any game.

i kinda feel like now with this new patch that all the (me)people who hated bf2 with the BH/DD c4 throwing/ grandes ect. plus the heli whoring,and bomb runs over spawn points. finally get some satifaction.ground pounding can now finally be fun.and air *****s all have to find a better way to rack up all those points now-ha ha ha .Granted some problems were not fixed(name bugs ect.)And that is a shame,but for all you who couldn't stand the way things were, this patch is a step in the right direction.I for 1 love it.And (no offense)i love hearing all the people who used to make my game less enjoyable crying about all the new fixes ,that now they hate.Cuz IMO these fixes were for all you who hate it ther most.

 

well i'm going to play more of the game i just now have begun to love again.

Word!

I think this patch has turned the game around in a completely oppossite direction, and not a good one at that. I know they were trying to remove the bunny hoping and dolphin diving (which can still be partially done), but i think they took things a little bit too far.

 

-aa: anti air now really does work. For the first time, i saw both planes sitting on the mec runway on oman. The hitpoints were reduced by too much, i think half of what they did would have been sufficent.

 

-pkm: woah, this gun tears everything up. It's very accurate from a distance and always powerful. I think this is my new favorite gun.

 

-c4: I know they were trying to take out tossing, and i think that was alright. But they dont know how many times you just toss it over a wall to blow up a tank or to stop the enemy from capping. Now i guess it requires more precision since you can only drop it.

 

That's bascially all i have to say, they will need a 1.3 to fix some of the oddities from 1.2

i feel the same way but there is an upside to it....shouldnt be to hard to get a chopper now because no one will want to fly them!!!!!

i was cruisin round today in a helo and actually had a good time...little more skill involved now(ex:dodge,dip,duck,dive and ...dodge)when flying around due to the increased threat of blowin up....all in all though i changed my mind i like it the way it is,will certainly stop alot of basecampers and like you said, it is a lot easier gettin a helo now

To be a good sniper, avater, polite a chopper,

dude i so want to be a polite chopper or an avater!

Patch is great.

 

In real life jets and helis are "soft" doesn't take much to bring down a chopper, or jet aluminum is what they make Coke® cans out of remember.

 

Bottom line, it takes more thinking, and skill, and teamwork now, which is why I bought the game in the first place.

 

ANYONE, could get a top score in a jet or heli before patch, they owned the game, it was like a bad flight simulator before. This patch is a move in the right direction.

sounds like a good patch, and just as I figured people would ***** and complain about the airplanes, but whatever, AA in RL is very accurate and hard to get away from.

 

I just need to get my cable turned back on (last month of being broke) and getting back to playing BF2, would be nice to have it this weekend.

well imma try to get osme playing done, but now that i have a project and i got my quad back, i think its time for a little break... whoa a break from bf2, a few days ago i would have thought that as blashemy. oh well ill play a little to get my fix. and brush up on learning to fly a jet right.

 

gator said that this might become a sniperfest. has it?

Looking forward to geting in the server and seeing for myself. till waiting for a few more things to get my tower up and running and getting back in the game but rom what i've heard of things got borked.

it's onlu been 1 day:rolleyes: not that much has changed.but as far as sniping goes come join me,having fun:p

Well....first off, I like the new sniper rifle (a lot). The PKM is muy deadly and is now very fun to use. I don't like the p90 for the anti-tank kit so I will stick to the DAO-12. Did they juice up the anti-tank rockets for this patch? I killed some tanks pretty easy last night. Finally, I think getting the explosives badge will become much easier now because of the claymore situation!

 

*Observation* During the few maps that I played last night, I noticed the ticket score was very close the whole time which led to very entertaining rounds. I will continue this line of observation for the next few days and see how close they actually are with a larger data sample.

 

OVERALL, I enjoy the new patch. I don't feel sorry for pilots...........

This patch, to me, has many pros that outweigh cons.

 

Hearing those guys come in and complain that the patch is horrible because they cannot prone spame, bunny hop, and countless other lamer exploits is enough for me.

 

_____________________________

 

However, ladies and gentlemen, I have found a way to get around the downtime from prone-->standing.

 

To do this, simply prone, press crouch, then let go of crouch quickly. If you do this, you're standing efficiently in roughly the same time it takes for the downtime AND you're able to shoot.

 

I agree that, perhaps, the SAM missles are a little godlike but this is how they are in real life....sort of.

 

You're going to be taking heat at almost all times and a majority of those missles flying at you WILL hit. If they don't, sigh, and wait for the next one to lock onto you.

 

C4 DID get a little too nerfed, but I like that you can no longer throw it the distance of an effective pistol shot.

 

______________________________

 

To me, the game looks nicer. Some minor things (again, at least to me) have been fixed. I scope with a gun like the SCAR-L and I no longer get nasty shadow effects on the inside of the scope but rather get a fancy little lighting effect. It's pretty nice to look at.

 

______________________________

 

Is it just me or does arty strike faster now?

 

______________________________

 

PKM is too buffed...the gun should have been left as-is. I have been hit COUNTLESS times by the PKM from a range that is both impossble and poopy. I don't even hear the shot occasionally!

One of the more humorous thigns to pop up from this patch is the hilarious stamina glitch.

 

If you sprint until your stamina is in the red, then jump, you hear a faint "huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh" sound. (Thanks to Underspy pointing this out.)

 

Just my two cents, I'm at school or else I would post more.

 

First Sergeant Biscuit~

NOES!!! you werent supposed to tell! the secret must be kept!

 

dude i so want to be a polite chopper or an avater!

i know his spelling isnt the greatest, but please do not make fun of it. i myself have extremely good spelling skills, but my typing needs work.

 

gator said that this might become a sniperfest. has it?

yes i have noticed quite a few more snipers lately... i love the L96 though. join me and K_T in sniping sometime! its a lot of fun now .

this game is now a complete sniperfest, you dont know how many times on maps like karkand, sharqi and mashtur that people are getting these instant 1 hit kills with the m95. Did they replace the bullets with head-seeking ammo? it seems like it.

no speeling is safe from me!!1one!

I was getting less than one FPS, and on and off sound. I can't say too much until I have a computer that can run it.

I just found out that I have to get BF2:SF to get the new unlocks:(

 

Anyone else that doesn't have that get the new unlocks???

thats why they threw in the 2 unlocks,when SF came out it came with 4 new unlocked weapons...but none for sniper and at so i guess people complained and they threw them in with the patch

As a certified anti-air specialist, I can say that while the planes/helos are much easier to shoot down, they are NOT "useless" I was playing a round of Dalian Plant where nobody on the Chinese side could bring anything down, and not for lack of trying. The US cobras and planes would smash every fixed antiair site as soon as someone heard the lock tone, and that caused complete disorganization in the Chinese anti-air system. Flying is still a major part of the game, and while it's not as easy as it was before, it just keeps the average pilots from getting massive scores at the expense of the mud-thumpers who are trying to cap flags. The better pilots will still "own" while flying.

ya,planes/helo's are still damn effective.i think you just gotta adapt to a new type of style.

Patch is great.

Sounds good to me. I'll find out when I find a time to play witout lag.
