Yeah, they'll pretty much have to - otherwise it'll be unranked.

Also, TVing on Op Clean Sweep is now as bad as TVing on Dragon pre 1.5?

I am no chopper whore, and had hardly any experience flying or gunning but I never seemed to have a problem TV'ing on Dragon Valley a little bit of guess work seemed to work lol but both teams have the same problem so hardly a disadvantage, I wonder why they didn't just change the colour for that map though (Dragon) ?

I hope the hit detection is better for buggies now. Its annoying when you fire a rocket at a buggy, it goes straight through and you end up on the 6 O'clock news for a hit'n'run with your favourite pair of undies stuck to his radiator.

I know the patch is almost done but if it's not too much trouble can you please include dinosaurs on Wake and possibly some sort of golf buggy that serves drinks and cake? "Light refreshments and nibblies at your position!"

Battlefield 2 v1.50 Status Update
In a thread on the EA UK Forums, DICE Associate Producer, Barrie Tingle posted some additional information on the release of the Battlefield 2 v1.50 final patch.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hey guys
I have been out of the office (although it doesnt mean I stopped working on BF2 1.50) for the last two weeks on semester. However... Emil hasn't and has been hard at work on the update after your feedback. So here is where we are at; there hasn't been any MAJOR issues in the Beta 3 that we have had reports of.

So whats changed since the Beta 3 started?
The screens below will help explain.

• Black cross hair on the TV guided missiles
• Widescreen FoV on widescreen resolutions

When I get back into the office next week there will be some last minute checks (no more fixes (unless something is broken that I didnt expect) or changes) and all being well the update 1.50 will be finalised and released officially.

Thanks for your feedback during the Beta phases. Its all gone a long way to make this one of the biggest changelogs that Battlefield 2 has had since launch.

The LMGs only have increased deviation for half a second. The prone delay only has a large effect on the Assault Rifles, with the Carbines and SMGs have a minor effect and LMGs and pistols almost none.

If you have half a second to spare proning is still a good idea, otherwise crouching makes you much more accurate than most people realize.

I am almost never prone for 4 seconds. I find its a great way to get a snipers bullet through the cranium. Even at long range, I'll get up and move between shots, with this delay it basically makes prone useless for anything except hiding behind walls from tanks.

Even if LMG only have half a second, against anyone half decent your dead by then in close-medium combat so it nothing more then a token concession. By the sounds of it, this is the worst thing to happen to the game since IO.

That's the point, LMGs are supposed to give covering fire, it's not a weapon that you should be able to run around with and instant prone getting mass rego on someone's feet and kill them. If you want to use an LMG sit in a corner or wait inside a hole until someone comes, it does my fucking head in on inf that I can't have a good game because EVERYONE who I kill can't stay on a rifle and instead spawns with a PKM and just prone sprays.
