its a game?does realism truly matter that much as opposed to fun?no.i think vehicle drops are fine as long as its confined to small vehicles like the karts and jeeps.and i like the squad leader spawn fix.theres nothing i hate more then a million people spawning on one guy out of nowhere.d4rkph03n1x wrote:

Long time No see..

Yep, karkand does have an airport, but the map strike at karkand is on the industrial part so i guess the airport is 20km from it? +1 for pointing it out
The aircraft is already in the game go commander, zoom closest and drop supplys (think it was supplys)...d4rkph03n1x wrote:

there is a big aircraft delivering it (think C-160) anybody got a pic?
interesting...I've never seen that one before
Yeah, I'd definately want to see a pic of it before I might consider believing this
i have only seen this bug maybe once or twice...its not as common as ppl seem to make it sound...idk whats up with thatUgaminor wrote:
By the looks of this I think that EA/Dice have accepted the fact that they in no way have a solution to the most troublesome bug around since the beginning... the red/blue tag bug. Oh well, most of us have adjusted to it now by looking at uniforms after the first TK, and some of us <_< >_> have used the blue bug to our advantage.... *no guilt here*
edit: spelling
i agree with anything but the squad hopping thats bullshit i use it all the time thats how you win games. i can addapt though like i did everything else bring on the pain!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd like to see them change the gap between First Sarge and Sarge Major.. 30,000 points ?!!! It has taken me since july to get just 20,000 now. Now I have to go that PLUS 10k more for the next rank ? that is bullsh#tKobrakai wrote:

I dont understand whats bullshit about it... besides ranking up is slightly easier once you earn your keep. Remember Sergeant Major was the top dawg rank when this game came out, then they added the 2nd lieutenant rank to the mix.
Now there is like 7 more progressive ranks in between 3 start general, I think the highest is 4 star general and someone gets to be that once a month like SGT Major of the Corps.
As far as the squad hopping thing this will actually shorten some games a bit and also promote more teamwork within squads. Sometimes you join a squad and those bumblefucks couldnt coordinate fucking a dead body if they took a week to do so.
So you eventually want to change squads, thats understandable. But you have one good player on wake on the us team flank the whole china coalition and tells 5 people to join his squad commit suicide or die or whatever and then spawn on him and next thing you know the us caps all of the china flags before you know it.
It takes away from the sense of hardwork a team really has to work together for to achieve such a daunting task and it just seems more like playing cheaply with your brains... Instead of your brawn.

Am I the only one who thinks the big version of the changelist is bullshit? The ONLY official thing I've seen is the shorter version:

Unreal, these ea/dice people change this game at the drop of a hat and then dont think about what they've done and we have to adjust. This spawn squad thing is teamwork and I have seen squads stick together using this by rotating squad lead so your team mates can join back. I guess the SL will have to run and hide and not par take in the fun. Plus I have never heard of anyone complain about this. The squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Sorry if i made you think that i dont respect people who have been able to get WCR.Cougar wrote:

I say NO the changing WCR
Wechile drops sounds bit strange, just give helis ability to carry jeeps/buggys.
For anti-squad hopping thing, make it atleast so that when leader dies, person closest to leader, or next in rank, takes command in squad until original leader spawns back or something like that.
Most people who don't have and say that crap have obviously never attempted to get it for more than a week.
It's a royal pain in the ass and I have the uptmost respect for all who have it.
I just think that WCR makes w/l ratio more important to some team swapping Nooby McNoob than it would be otherwise: "oh no! we are losing, quick, lets swap team so i dont lose my chances for WCR and uber w/l ratio!!". Or maybe noobs would team swap all the same even if WCR was completly removed.
Raises hat to everyone with WCR
edit:
And for teamswapping, chance it anyway you want, it aint gona stop infinite infantry flood spawning on leader, leader just stays behind and hidden. But i still hope that they aint chancing squad system, its just fine now.
If they still chance squad system: Join squad 1, spawn on flag, suicide, spawn on leader just to find out that squad is full of lonewolves going rambo style, switch to squad 2, suicide, spawn on flag, suicide, spawn on leader.... so on, so on, until you manage to find nice teamworking squad gaining masses of -2's in process.

going to be cool that vehicles just dropping out of the air lol
I really hope they are joking about adding new stuff before they fix everything broke, come fall 2006 support for bf2 will end & 2142 will be the focus, they will leave bf2 as is after armored fury.
They must focus on finishing the game before there is no more money for it.
It's like some sick late april fools joke or something...{grabs asprin}.
I'm sure I'll adapt to any new stuff, but would be nice to have a whole game for all the money I've given them.

This is movie realism, not real life realism.
i feel your pain m8 the 30k gap is to put in bluntly fucking disgusting and all the wifes/girlfriends/daughters should be fucked hard in front of them to get this sorted .rotaidem wrote:

In my experience, the AI never, ever, ever uses TV-guided missiles. That would be irritating in an online game.Zukabazuka wrote:
Seems good so far and I really like this co-op mode, think about having a AI gunner in the chopper at highest lvl. Total annihilation in my opinion
It doesnt add up 20000 points then 50000 for the next rank but only 15000 for the next and 10000 after that hopefully they change that.[netsas]knight wrote:

but at least their fixing the crash between special forces and vanilla cause i dont play special forces because of that
Well another new patch, preatty soon my computer will become a bleeding bandaide...
i remember when i ended up walking in the middle of nowhere, cause i also was a noob once, those noobs deserve to walk if they end up in the middle of nowere...
i also see, jet pilots bailing out of jets whenever someone locks onto them, and then requesting a humvee, so they can drive back and get a new one.
however, i do like the idea of being able to drop humvees sounds fun, except for that whole run-way dropping humvee crap... >

One thought on the runway dropping... the only reason vehicles on the runway is usually a problem is because one of your teammates is pissed off that they missed the jet, and thus you are unable to blast the hell out of it with the main cannon without getting a tk... this obviously wouldn't apply to a dropped vehicle, so unless it came down at the exact moment of takeoff and didn't leave time to turn then it won't pose a problem, just wait for it to land, blast it and wait a moment for the wreckage to disappear.
well, try to win Wake Island or Strike at karkand as USMC after patch 1.3 and then post again your opinion.Ugaminor wrote:

Indeed, whether they fix bugs you ve never heard of or features that make the game fast and skilly... This "you cannot spawn at a squad leader except you have spawned there one time", well, thats the dead of bf2 in EVERY league or tournament in the future. You'll see...
Seems like you have to work in squad for real now and not just jump between them. Most of the time people just joined them as spawnpont, ok I did it to but few times I been in good squads. Bring in more teamwork and the SL should now be more careful instead of going in to death. So you should stick to one squad now instead of jumping around
