This looks like a decent update. It's awesome to see community maps being added; it's a brilliant way to keep the game alive. Perhaps one day I will play this game again.

Widescreen support?

Nice!

Have they given BF2 widescreen support yet?

Unless I'm mistaken, I think not!

Wake is completely what I thought it wouldn't be, same with Shingle.
Pretty large maps, and I like what they did with Wake, how you can actually cap flags inside the titan, without having to blow it up. Neat-o.

Also, how would they "prevent cheating."
They changed the pods a little, you can't look directly below you now also.

Still no workey.

this worries me, did they really have the time to fix all? especially compared to how long it took 1.4 to go from beta to final

they were never going to fix it, all they did to the pods was give they more manoeuvrability when coming out of jump ships

I had the beta and installed the 1.5 incremental and it didn't work right.  Read on the EA forums to reinstall 1.4, then install the incremental.  Trying that now.
