Re: Monday! BF2 Patch!

So that would screw us out of PR then?

Even if it didn't, I hope the patch is a rumor. It will cause to many problems.

ALthough this is up to the server admins, they dont HAVE to upgrade, its a non ranked server anyway

They could hold off on patching server until PR dev has a chance to make any changes needed.

3: Not quite sure...can you explain this point further.

Dont take the above as an argument, I dont really see much fun in it personally for the vanilla sf I play, but I also dont think it would be a bad addition.

As I understand it, the devs will be getting a hotfix out if it's necessary as fast as humanly possible. If PR does indeed go down, I doubt it'll be more than a day or two before it's fixed.

I'll make sure you pay for your campaign of slander and misinformations! I know I say this often but this time I'm out for socks!

EA confirmed a new patch, but there will be an open beta before the final 1.5 release.

And get shot down hovering? Landing is still the fastest option, if the squad knows how to bail out and immediately get away from the chopper

Let's see how far back this next patch sets us...

**Drakenberg** · 06-23-2008, 04:47 PM

A friend of mine was at dices office testing out bf bad company, he asked them about a bf2 patch, and they said it was comming.

From what ive heard this patch will be an "anti hack" patch. lately there has been somekind of hack that can make players admins, and they cant be banned aswell etc etc...

About bug fixes etc i know nutthin.
Edit: oh i saw you guys found out the truth, i only read the first messages

**A_Grounded_Pilot** · 06-23-2008, 04:52 PM

Typical EA BS.

While I agree to a certain extent, and while EA definitely deserves much of its reputation, let's not jump down their throats here. There is something to be said about the fact that Dice/EA is dedicating time, resources, and money to a three year old game. Let's hold our tongues until we see what they have to offer. And yes, the patch might have unforseen consequences on our little mod, but as far as I know none of our devs work for EA. The Dice team wouldn't have access to the PR code to identify conflicts even if they were interested in doing so. Hopefully the patch will make some vBF2 players happy with new maps or gameplay changes, and the PR community will get whatever engine tweaks Dice throws our way.

Great.. more nonsense PB kicks! In one patch they put a shooting delay from prone to standing. How about one for each stance switch.

*Pinch.. Stop dreaming.

Probably keep the bunny hopping action too and prone diving.
