The f?

Why are you already bitching about this? Sure, its a nice feature, but you're meant to STAY IN THE SAME SQUAD. The squad's function is NOT to be an extra spawnpoint. Use the spawnpoints that are given to you, stop bitching, keep playing, live life.

I could think of a few other things that I would like EA/DICE to work on rather than Squad jumping!

Reinstating the ability to Jump and shoot and throwing of C4, Med-packs and Ammo Bags!

Fix Game stability!

Fix game lag!

Fix Browser lock-up and lag!

This is meant to be a REALISTIC game. Now, you try jumping and throwing something over a wall or fence at the same time. Try prone jumping withour hurting yourself or taking 5 seconds. Try bunnyhopping.

Then you'd see why they want to get rid of it.

'Fix game stability'. I'm not sure what you mean. Can you give ma an example of the game 'being' unstable?

'Fix game lag'. This has nothing to do with the game, EA, or DICE. Check your internet connectiong first. Are you being throttled? Second, check where the server is based. If I play on a US server, I shouldn't be surprised to get lag. Third, check that there aren't lots of high-pingers on the server who drag everyone down.

I've never experienced the 'browser lock up and lag'.

While it will be annoying to accidentally join the Dumbass Squad, I'm gonna have to stand with EA on this one.  When you join a squad only to get a spawn point, you never get that much co-operation, just a bunch of fools trying to raise their points as much as possible in one round.

"Fix Game stability!"

SOLUTION - Upgrade your 386

"Fix game lag!"

SOLUTION - Switch from 56k to Broadband, if on Broadband, Suspend your gay porn download before playing

"Fix Browser lock-up and lag!"

SOLUTION - Learn how to install BF2 properly. I don't experience this phantom "lockup and lag" - See first solution as well.

First of all, that red text is so f***ing annoying.

Second of all, REALISTIC? ARE YOU CRAZY?  I don't remember people being able to RESPAWN in real life.  I also don't remember people being able to bail out of jets, only being able to fall 500 feet into a flying helo.  Man.. where you live there's probably all of this, right?  And @ your first reply, do you know how much time it takes to get squad hopping down?  If you screw up, you could cost your clan the match. You know, i've never said this until now, but if you want realistic, go play CS. Atleast you can't respawn until the round ends.  If it's possible to respawn, why shouldn't you be able to do it on a squad leader?

lol Spark and half the game still isnt realistic . Heres a short list I made.Some areas it isnt as realistic as we think, although not everything in a game can be fun if everything is realistic. Sorry for goin sort of off topic

1.M203's and grenades launchers in real life will only activate after 40 yards or so. Bf2-about 10 feet.
2.In real life a bullet to the face kills. Bf2-Some guns and pistols won't kill if taken a round to the face.
3.All planes in real life can hold so many more attachments. Bf2-2 bombs, guns and 6 missiles.
4.In real life snipers don't run kamikaze style into battle to throw claymores every where. Bf2-they do
5.In real life just about 1 missile will own any plane. Bf2-2 will (not much different but still)
6.In real life the f-35 would not be easily detected on radar. Bf2-it is and it sucks

Maybe 'Realistic' wasn't a good word to use. But they still try to make the COMBAT experience as 'real' as possible. Ergo, no bunny-hopping, jump-shoot or prone-jumping. Also, they try to make it as balanced as possible. So:

1. M203 - This has been recognised and I wish that they'd fix it, but they have better things to do (like making more redbugs)

2. In real life it's f**ing hard to hit someone in the face, unless your a sniper. And also, if you die everytime you get hit in the face, don't you think EVERYBODY would be a bit of a medic-whore?

3. In real life planes actually have to LAND to rearm and repair. Therefore, just the bombs and missles is a trade-off - because even the best pilots would have trouble landing without being snapped.

4. This is a relatively new feature, and an unexpected one. Before, claymores were used in tactical places well before - doorways and ladders and the such.

5. Again, this is a bit of a trade-off. In real life, planes cover THOUSANDS of kilometres. Not 2. So at such close range, the chance of you hitting is pretty high.

6. It's hardly balanced to have one team with a stealth fighter that can't easily be shot down. Also, we're dealing with tiny distances (about 300m), and by that stage you've got a visual lock anyway, so any 'stealth' tech would be knida redundant.

---

If you hate red then you can kiss my ass. Build a bridge and get over it.

---

As I said earlier, squad-switching runs against the whole point of a squad. The squad is meant to operate as a UNIT, not as some convenient option. The 'realistic' comment was directed at the guy who wanted c4-chucking.

Far beyond this...isn't everyone going to spend the entire round hounding the commander for air-dropped tanks and APC's?  I'm curious to see how that feature in 1.3 will actually play out.
