BF2S Forums Will the long awaited patch 1.2 finally put an end to the whining?

Don't count on it.

Pshh people are gonna start saying, "The length of the spirnt doesn't live up to my sandards" or "A 200 round Mag on the M249 doesn't suit my trigger happy needs" orr "Why can't tanks go in water?" orrr "Why don't we get ABOMBS????"



No matter what the smallest thing will piss anyone off.

it is in human nature to bitch

Maybe the complainging will tone down or not.

Regardless, I think post-patch will result in a better game.
Chopper pilots will learn not to loiter, and the best ones will become expert at the hit and run.
Jet pilots will learn to keep an eye on their six, and hopefully dogfights will consist of more than who can trick the other guy into going out-of-bounds first.

All in all, I think it will be much more realistic.

what idiot voted yes?

Hiya Darth. I agree. It will result in more whining. People who use the c4 trick often: "I hate the new patch wich disabled the shooting in air function". Etc. I wish they would fix my vid probs.


I made some screens of my "glitches"



Black screen.



Just wtf?



No fog.

And ofcourse the random lock ups, where it's impossbile to make screens.

EA, fix my probs first. I need a new system. Help me finance it.

Well i dont know about the A bomb but i would love a few squads to have mortors to fill in when arty was down

well since they got the P90 for AT unlock and the L96A1 (AKA AWP) for sniper is better be

No your sig looks serious. Wow.

After spending a few months reading the incessant whining associated such topics as bunny-hopping, the GL, C4 throwing, etc.  many of these people feel that their prayers will be answered by EA's upcoming patch 1.2 and claim that the game will finally live up to their standards.

IMNSHO, I think that the whining will latch itself onto new outlets as the soon as the patch becomes available. 

What do you think?

The only thing that will ever stop the whining is the end of the world.

Hm... Wait... Ehm... Divided by 6...
Add 2, drop the R...
Yeh, the answer is defintly "No".

Hey Speelbal, maybe I can give you a little help with your video problems. I'm not certain about the 1st and 3rd screenshots, but the 2nd screenshot is (to the best of my knowledge) a problem called texture corruption. I know this because I spent quite a long time researching this several months ago when I suffered the same problem. The problem manifested itself with BF1942 and Vietnam, and eventually with BF2, although it didn't do it so much with 1942, which I played alot more than Vietnam, but it was really bad with BF2, which prompted me to get to the bottom of the problem. No other games that I had would cause the problem (except I think UT2004, which I only played once at a LAN party). I think the reason that the BF series triggered the problem was that they taxed my video card and overall system much more than anything else. So the problem wasn't with BF, but with my system overall.

The way to resolve this problem is basically the same as any other video problem. Follow all the basic steps, such as updating video drives, GART/AGP drivers, turn off overclocking, change AGP apeture size in the BIOS, etc, etc. In my case, the thing that seemed to resolve the issue, oddly enough, was setting the AGP apeture to 256MB. I had avoided doing this for a long time because common knowledge was to set it at about 128. However, the Omega Drivers page said to turn it up, so I did and presto the problem disappeared. Also, using the Omega Drivers seemed to help with the problem somewhat before I stumbled upon the final fix.

It appears to me that the 1st and 3rd screenshots are also video related, so I would guess that if you fixed the texture corruption problem, you may also fix the other video issues. Do a search on "texture corruption" and you should find a lot more info to help you.

Good Luck!
