After playing titan mode with the new patch it crashes at the end of the titan round. This a new bug that EA/DICE is not aware of

Oh great

Played 3 titan rounds so far, I'm actually enjoying it because bodies aren't rolling across the titan when i'm trying to revive them.

Lol I knew its gonna be like in BF2 were they fix one thing and another problem appears. lol:D

Just Great!!!

i have not had that problem AT ALL . i have played at least 4 or 5 t rounds of titan today .

Hmm, played several rounds myself here, not one crash??

 

TFD

The patch finally got rid of the titan ammo exploit, I think they did a pretty good job here. Haven't had one bad experience yet.

I crashed the first time at the end of a Titan round on the VSF server. Haven't tried it on any other server yet.

hmm, lets hope that isnt an issue

Works like a champ for me. I can even ALt-Tab out now without locking up.

Ding all the respect to you bro, but this kinda thinking is what keeps the bandwagon of "EA Sucks" attitudes going. Lets get some more people running it before we can say if it fixed problems or not.

 

So many people talk crap about EA so often and it really gets on my nerves. The battlefield series as a whole is amazing. I remember before its start how I wish there was a game with all the capabilities this one has.

 

I enjoy playing the game and sure they need to fix some things but overall the game is great.

YaaaaaaY!!!!

Ding, Are you running an nVidia card? Have you tried this?

 

For those users who are experiencing a Crash to Desktop after a round ends on a Server, here is a "possible fix" that has helped a good chunk of people.

 

Please delete your cache in the My Documents\Battlefield 2142\mods folder and the file icontent.cache. This may help some and NVIDIA driver version 91.31 is confirmed to run with out crashing after clearing your cache. Please roll back to version 91.31. You can download this driver here.

really?? sweet!

I never had that problem

I never had a problem with alt - tab out either. Matter of fact I had to use it because if I quit the game it would freeze mine up until it went into standyby and came back out. Havent tried to see if thats changed yet or not as I look at 2142 still loaded in my toolbar

i got nothing but dang lag out the ars from this patch

Well it is a problem for a select few. Also to find out that my new 7900GT was running the old driver updated that maybe it'll help. EA knows and they are working on it. Mechanisms has an ATI card and he crashed as well. Guess i'll have to stick with conquest for now or play some good ol BF2. Thanks for the suggestions

After playing titan mode with the new patch it crashes at the end of the titan round. This a new bug that EA/DICE is not aware of

The bug itself is refered to as "a titan" this is something of an anomaly and EA didnt ever intend to be placed in the game itself.. it falls in line with the mysterious bug known as BF2142 that EA are still trying to work out

The latest on the "End of Titan Round Crash":

 

"-If the Titan is moving when the shields go down and the rounds per map is set greater than one, then the client will crash at the end of the round. Until a fix is in place, server admins can prevent the issue by setting the rounds per map to one. (Barnburner73 and Medic 9017 kindly posted this workaround; it has also been verified by DICE). Soldiers can also choose to play Conquest maps to avoid running into the Titan crash if the rounds per map has not been changed to one.

I understand the frustration Ding, this bug bit me today too. I was fine until this evening, when I first crashed. Thinking it was simply a driver issue (as EA originally reported), I rolled back the nVidia driver, re-installed Coolbits, re-OC'd, etc., etc.... After two successful map endings, I'm right back where I started from. At least the issue has been identified. AKA: Get ready for another patch.

I crashed at the end of both the titan rounds. I don't think I was the only one either because when I logged back on the server went from full to about 23 I believe. On the second one I played, 3 flags on my mini map were flashing gray the whole time. Making it so I would have to find the flag to see if it was taking or not. Not cool.

 

Good thing though is that I didn't have the black titan bug. So there is a good thing I suppose. But that was never an issue before this patch. So it didn't really fix things. Oh, I can finally pick up people's kit on the titan. That was a big improvement I guess. Although, it is like EA to find the easiest route. Instead of working through the problem, they just worked around it.

Something is definatly fishy about this patch. I was getting a framrate drop I wasn't getting before on a different server. Before I wrote it off to being the patch, I went back to our own servers which always run well. I was getting a framerate drop again in intense firefights... something I thought I had already tweaked away.

 

Something in this patch is taking up more system resources, which may be why some clients aren't noticing anything unusual while those of us running ourselves right up to the edge notice it.

 

Another thing I noticed.... it reoptimised shadows when I played again for the first time with the patch on..... that isn't supposed to happen unless your settings change, and I haven't touched them since I found that "Sweet spot" between looks and performance I like.

Shaders have always reoptimized for me after applying a BF patch (even back in BF2). However, if you play a server that runs a map more than once, you'll see the "reoptimizing" message at the end of the Titan round again...well, right before you CTD.

Ive noticed couple bugs like when I set a apm mine on the silo it keep moving untill it fell of the silo, I was driving in a car and someone shot me and the car keept driving eventhough I was dead, and then after I disconected last night it said I was a privated I thought they fixed that oh well. Over all not bad though.
