Hey guys, remember me?
Just a quick update. We have what we believe is the final version of Battlefield 2 v1.50. We have a little bit of office politics to sort out regarding the update but once thats cleared up we'll be good to release it.
Unfortunately I can't tell you what the office politcis decision is about but it is worth the slight extra delay. There won't be another public Beta of this version, instead we will do a closed Beta to get a faster turn around and is basically to make sure things are still OK like the connection to servers issue.

You will need to have Battlefield 2 installed to version 1.41. We won't support installing over a previous 1.50 Beta version (it might work without issue but it might not so to be safe install over 1.41) so feel free to uninstall/delete that version.
Office politics? I wreckon they've added AF and EF free with it.

Good news though, no?
IF they do that, yayyyy for huge download.

For me the game looks and feels much more like a war/action movie now with taking cover and safely approaching dangerous places, instead of retro-style Quake 3 Arena gameplay.
That right there is the problem. The game may have been intended to feel like a 'war/action movie' but you're saying that it played like Quake 3. If bf2 hasn't been a 'war/action movie' type game till now, why the hell would you try and make it one now?

Personally i don't particularly care either way, but i can see the point that if this change modifies the way the game plays/feels like you say it does, then it shouldn't be implemented.
No, no!
What I meant was that with no more silly insta-prone belly flopping on every corner and much less bunny hopping resulting from that too, the game now looks like the basic theme makes you think: soldiers, realistic weapons = war game.
Before, people were basically playing Quake 3, dressed in camouflage hopping & flopping around, even shooting the Eryx at your feet like it was a fully-auto rocket launcher...

I didn't mean that I felt any change in the game mechanic.
I just wanted to express that the game now plays as one could expect and as DICE originally intended.

And frankly, before you just had to adapt to that hopping & flopping gameplay style, because if you tried to actually use tactics, teamwork, proper covering like you would expect from a "full out war on the modern battlefield", you'd be killed on and on and on.

I agree that implementing changes in game mechanics at this point is sort of silly - bugfixes should have been the top priority.

But as someone who hasn't played the beta, is this really a game-breaking change?  I get that it's unneeded, but does it take more than a round of gameplay to get used to it?  Most people are saying that it's a minor change that doesn't affect gameplay much, whereas others act as if the game is not going to be worth playing...

From what I've read, it seems like the worst side-effect of the patch is going to be adjusting to it for a round or two, but after that point most everyone should be fine...is that pretty much the case?
No, I've always said it's pointless putting gameplay changes into this patch because BF3 won't be too long, the annoying thing about the changes to gameplay are that no one asked for them, look how many people play 1.41 and how much they obviously like it the way it is, I remember before the 1.5 beta 1 was out, everyone was so excited about the 1.5 patch, talking about 3 main things- J10 v F35, blackhawk miniguns being more powerful, and better hitreg.
They bring out the betas, with prone deviation, jump/prone delay, falcon controls, 10x more bugs than there already is, joysticks not working, not being able to alt/tab, commander glitches, menu glitches, not being able to apply settings etc etc all people wanted was a few things to make 1.41 a bit better than it already is and it seems liek they are changing it all, for no reason.
I would be more than happy if they completely scrapped 1.5, theres no way I'd stop playing if they didnt bring it out, at least then I'd know all the servers would be sorted and I could carry on playing the way ive always played
how have the j10 vs. f35b, bh miniguns, and hireg been improved anyway?

Office politics? That sounds crazy, but I've never worked in an office, so what do I know.

I'm not itching to try 1.5 yet. But the sooner it's out, the better for the movie. Summer's almost over. :p

Let`s hope the office politics don`t take too much time.
I have read that we can expect some other surprises as well as the new map.
Hopefully it`s gonna be a great Autumn

I'm pretty certain they're either adding the whole af/ef package or they'll add one map from each, so you get a taste of what you're missing.

Here's to hoping they add the whole lot, even though I've bought them both....twice.

The good news is, while they wrangle to make the add-on packs free, rather than sitting on their arses, they continue to track down and squash bugs.  Recent quotes from Bazajaytee:

Commanders amongst you will be happy to know while we deal with release details we have managed to fix vehicle drop. Also programmers are tackling the Commander View issue where some details like the J10 and Z10 on Wake Island wouldn't show for USA.

(Referring to the 2GB memory bug)  Yes it is sorted now. The compiler was only allowing our debug exe file to use more than 2Gb. Now its set to allow the release exe to do the same.

Course it's not out yet he's just being stupid again, I always check the EA forums to see if there's a release date, apparently they're giving a release date early next week, it hopefully will be next week as apparently they've sorted pretty much all the problems like commander stuff and that
