I've had more CTD's, and the Players filter doesn't work now. They fixed themap filter, but broke another one.

I don't know what to think of this patch. Since i've downloaded it, I seem to have the game crash twice as much, and i've seen the red tag glitch twice as much. Is anyone else getting this.

Id fire there Fuken ASS

This Patch is a joke
Tonite playing Karkland 64 , I couldnt unlock any weapons, The other team was blue well most of them INCLUDING seeing squads on there side as our own so you could see them comming for you
This leads to to ask what the HELL do they do at DICE  Laugh at us paying customers who pay for upgrade packs only to get new bugs THIS is beyond a JOke

If Another company like Westwood or someone made a simular Growth game Id shove this bf2 us Dice EA ass
Enough said IM pissed First time ever

Im happy with 1.21 it's nice to be able to search by map again. it installed and runs with no problems.

i did see an AA missle flying sideways though. im not sure what the patch fixed besides map filters.

This patch sucks! it is worse than patch 1.2

The red name tag problem still exists as with rockets going through vehicles. I have killed an enemy and have got punished for it, I have tripped on a team mates claymore and vise versa, i have destroyed a fully healthy tank with 2 shots from a heli. I randomly kill people even though i am not firing. sometimes nobody can be the commander or create squads! i'm just waiting to see if that sound bug happens to me again too!

EA/Dice very dissappointing!

There is one more new one I noticed....Me and a few buds were on an EA EC server last night and only two squads were avail on the team and it wasn't letting ANYONE on the server create a new squad...it was fucking bizarre.
I definitely seen this pre 1.21.  I believe it was introduced in 1.2.
Not new with 1.2... That particular bug affects Internode servers alot, has since I started playing online.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Error update, now that I've run 1.21 for a couple of days:

- sporadically exits to desktop without any visible error message while playing
- sometimes AT rockets still fly through vehicles (especially APCs, rarely tanks)
- sometimes enemies sitting in a TOW | HJ-8 are nearly unhittable with M95 (hitbox bug? maybe lag)
- remove favorites doesn't seem to work anymore

Seems like a slightly improved 1.2. I haven't seen silent bullets. All AA missles seem slightly less good but still good. Also have not seen nearly as many crazy zig zag missles. Red tag is still there but thats never been a glitch to cry about. Just look at their uniform ya morons.

The Jet missiles can't hit a chopper anymore, so don't waste the missiles there, go for the guns. You can still shoot the pilot out of the chopper at least.
I still do get the red name thing, but if I TK the player once, I don't hit them again (I tend to see the uniform before I look to the breasts, uh... I mean tag anyway ).
My big complaint is now with the tanks shooting invisible silent rounds... I get hit, and I am playing reactive, instead of offence. Not a fan of reactive actions.

Related note: This was posted yesterday afternoon by Dice on Gamespy:
We're developing this (BF2142) here in DICE Stockholm while the DICE Canada studio will be hard at work on a 1.3 update for Battlefield 2, as well as the Armoured Fury Booster Pack.
So the Canadian forces will be in charge of keeping us happy... I don't know if I should be proud, or get the paper bag ready as a helmet.

Ok I need help.
Downloaded the patch and now game doesn't get passed black screen and falls back to desktop.
I have unistalled reinstalled numerous times and nothing. Have done everything suggested by EA for this problem and still nothing. Have unistalled directX and reinstalled directX. Have removed BF2 folder , unistalled and reinstalled with full patch and still nothing. The game ran great before the 1.21 patch.

Have E-mailed EA support and still have not rcieved an answer.

I am running :

AMD Athlon 2.0 G's
1024 mem,
NVidia 6600GT-OC with latest drivers

Any suggestions will be appriciated,thanks.

I get bad lag and a high ping, even tho I ping fine with the old patch (I made a back up).

The lag is stupid, its almost as if my computer cant run the game (even tho it can), anyone else having this problem?

New patch is fine (but the crash is annoying)

They raped the LMGs...went from select few could use them, to everyone could use them to now, no one can use them.  Can't they put it back to the old LMGs???  And the nades not blowing up AT/Claymores anymore...damn whores.

I had a special server (not giving it away, or I couldn't get in), that would verify my client data in like 10 to 15 seconds.  Now it takes as much as it usually does on other servers.  Havent noticed anything else except for less deaths by PKM in Warlord.

LMG's are still pretty good post 1.22.  Yes they are a little less accurate.  It takes a few more rounds to ensure the enemy dies. 

I played Iron Gator for the first time since 1.12 last friday.  Under 1.12 I couldn't play Iron Gator or Warlord due to video lag.  Now I can play them just fine. 

As for the Ping, I score about the same number of points per round when I play in a server where I have a ping of 20 (US based Server) as I do in a server with a ping of 120 (Euro based server).  That is I finish with about 30 - 40 pts, on average, in a 30 min round. 

AA seems to be ok.  I have a new tactic for getting helo and airplanes to drop flares before I kill them with AA.  Aircraft dropping flares will distract AA very well.

Edit below

The name tag bug still exists post 1.22.  It's very annoying.  I wish they would fix it.  Other than that bug, I really don't have any complaints with the game. 

I haven't played Great Wall since 1.22 so I don't know if they fixed that exploit yet.

the new patch huh. Well it kinda sucks or something. Like whats up with the head shots ? Did you notice you can hit a person point blank 4x in face with any gun and 6 out of ten enemy lives threw 3 of the shots. Strange days !! What happened to me bucking you in the head and, your ass is dead? And I don't play lazy pussy sniper.
