Community Update - 6/30/05

Update 1.01 Coming Soon
That's right, the first Battlefield 2 Update is coming your way very soon. We've kept quiet about this update so far, but today we're going to reveal the major fixes coming with the Update. The best part is, every fix in this update is a result of Community feedback on the demo and retail game release.

Fixes

-Fixed issues that caused the Multiplayer Browser to become unresponsive.

We've added some new functionality and buttons to the Multiplayer Browser that make finding an open game of Battlefield 2 much, much easier. Issues users have encountered involving zero ping servers or browser hangs have all be addressed.

-Fixed an issue where some game controls were not available to be rebound within the Options menu.

Some functions previously were not available to be rebound in the Controls Options menus. These items have been added to make rebinding of functions much easier.

-Fixed a crash with rebinding LMB

Users who rebind the Left Mouse Button to "Move forward" rejoice!

With these fixes and more, it should be much easier to get in to a game of Battlefield 2 and that much easier to play it the way you want to play it. Look for this update to be deployed into battle some time next week!

Linux Server Build
Many of you have made us aware of issues with the previously released retail Linux server (2442) in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments. DICE has finished work on a replacement build and QA has been working hard to validate something that we can release to the community. Our goal is to get a fully operational version of the Linux server out to the Community ASAP. Stay tuned to this spot for updates.

BF2 Editor Update
Those of you who have been watching this space over the last couple of weeks are aware the BF2 Editor was intended to be released to the Community by the end of June. While we feel we are on the homestretch now in terms of being able to release a complete Battlefield 2 Mod Development Toolkit, we will not be able to meet our previously stated goal. At this time, we are committed to getting the Open Beta of the Battlefield 2 Editor released some time in July. Stay tuned to this space for more details.

Advanced Tactical Center for Battlefield 2 Releasing!
Tomorrow marks the initial release to the community of a tool built by Foolish Entertainment especially for Battlefield 2 - the Advanced Tactical Center for Battlefield 2. This easy to use tool allows your clan to communicate tactics easily and evolve them together in real time! There are also some new tools to the ATC like "zoom", "export tactic" and a "Custom Map Wizard" that builds upon the already large library of tools! Create and manage your squad before even joining a server with ATC. For more information on ATC, visit www.foolishentertainment.com

Have a greath 4th everybody!

lol @ "greath."

That pathetic list is all they could come up with? Sheesh!

SmokingTarpan · 06-30-2005, 11:15 PM

None of those are what I'd consider important updates/fixes. You'd think they'd rather fix things like all the TK bugs, but no, I suppose that would make far too much sense.

Can they make my verifying client data shorter than the actual loading of the map? We shall see. This game reminds me a ton of CnC with they totally effed up and that was my last game from EA until BF2.

Or stop me from randomly getting disconnected..

Hey! They fixed the browser. But I don't use the browser anymore. My filter says tacticalgamer.

IAmCrazy · 06-30-2005, 11:59 PM

I like this feature when you're the enemy commander.

I dont understand the tactical center thing.

Seraosha · 07-01-2005, 09:55 AM

An update for a FPS multiplayer game a week or so after release?
And they are patching an error stopping folks seeing servers?

Sounds like their priorities are just fine, imo.

Folks will still play with the other stuff, so it will be of lesser importance, but "squeek squeek" goes the wheel...If it's another month until the patch comes out, thats still pretty typical of support patches in my experience...unless EA has a better track record? I dunno, first EA game of this type I've purchased.

It's kind of point less to us. It would be as if we went to a briefing before hopping on our server and starting our 'mission' on the map. It's meant for clans that do tournaments and are serious about it. The commander can have all members join him in the 'briefing room' and discuss tactics, while being able to show the map on screen and draw, etc, on the map. Then everyone, from the briefing room, can automatically join the server.

I don't really see us doing this, unless we get serious in our matches against AGE, which is not likely. This community is more of a 'go with the flow, have fun'.

Pretty poor list of fixes, but hopefully it'll be added to.
