The patch runs great on my computer.  Constant 60+ fps.  Flag caps are easier.  vehicle drops are sweet.  reward requirements lowered... basically the same game with a few tweaks.  I am sorry you computer sucks and cant run the patch.  i am also sorry that EA cares enough about the community to actually release a patch at all.  oh yeah im also pinging at a constant 20.  server browser works exactly the same

find it funny you peopel complain about a company that has made such an AMAZING game.  I have played a few solid hours and havent noticed a different in gameplay at all.  sorry you all whine and suck

well, the server browser isnt exactly the same.  if you sort by ping, it auto-resorts when you click on a server.  it can get annoying.

i agree with everything else though.  my ping is lower also.

Yeah I'd say it's good overall but seeing my whole squad squashed by a car when in a firefight wasn't funny. What made it worse was that they couldn't cycle me to squad leader and so couldn't spawn on me.

The server list is fucked up and the vehicle drops bugs on Great Wall. Test to drop a car on the wall and hit a box. The car will be about one meter above the ground.

yes but cycling was an exploit anyway.  i never used it although i could have.  the game was built so that you wouldnt have that kind of unfair advantage.

this is the second time i've seen this and its annoying the hell out of me

flag caps aren't easier
in previous patches the flag cap graphic didn't update when more than one person entered the cap zone... now the graphic accurately displays the rate at which the flag is lowering.

i would also like to say "fuck you" because the patch has serious issues that have nothing to do with computer specs and another "fuck you" on behalf of everybody who purchased this game based on the advertised specifications and maybe doesn't have the money (or probably in your case since you don't seem to understand that, any of "mommy and daddy's money) to upgrade for a videogame that by all right they shouldn't have to upgrade for.

i really have trouble blaming the consumer who bought a product based on advertised specifications for problems caused at a later date by the producer.  not only are you an appologist for the EA and Dice but you're actually saying that people should whine less and buy more. you're a fucking tool. go die.

Well I have a very high end computer yet I'm still getting performance problems that are unique to this patch, a bad frame rate drop at random intervals. It's not because my system isnt optimized either I've spent many hours tweaking everything on this machine to run well, and I laugh at you thinking people are getting performance issues becuase they download porn. The server browser HAS been changed, now whenever I click on a server once to refresh it's information the servers will rearrange themselves and it makes it very difficult to keep track of a specific server. The way I've found to get around this is to have it sort by game type (the only one being conquest) and that keeps the servers from rearranging themselves.

I'm just hoping that a fresh installed will clear up the frame problems.

The lag/fps drop/crashes are due to changes in the game. Each patch affects more people. You were just lucky not to get a bugged install.

i hope it's sarcasm because otherwise it would be complete BS... there are more than enough people with superbrianiacmonster computers and they still get crappy performance because the game has some issues... luckily enough I have no probs anymore but I used to have 12 fps with my x1800xt - and I dont quite think that this is a crappy card...
true the patch has some nice features and all but it's annoying that they mess up such obvious things as the server browser and it's even more annoying that some people like you act like their are all high and mighty and everyone else is an idiot, because your game runs fine

Let me re-write that from my perspective:
The patch runs horribly on my computer.  Constant 20- fps.  Flag caps are easier.  vehicle drops are buggedMy precious hard worked IAR achievments lost... basically the same game with a few tweaks.  I am sorry you computer sucks and cant run the patch.  i am also sorry that EA cares enough about the community to actually release a patch at all.  oh yeah im also pinging at a constant 80+.  server browser is crap.

I agree with the original poster, kinda. I am running a 4 year old HP computer with uberminimum specs minus the addition of a 9550 ATI graphics card, but I only got that because it was the only one best buy had that was undder $200 and met the minimum reqs, because my on board invidia didn't. After every patch I have not noticed ANY performance issues besides one; on this patch so far I've logged in once(and got in the first time) and it took about 1 minutes longer. I got into a server as fast as usual, minus the video optimization thing it does.

So basicly here's your solution. Go on eBay, buy a 4 year old Hp computer, install BF2. Now you're set! No Alienware for me!

myn is fine and yea my pc is great but it's still no reason to boast?!
the server list IS broken when ordered by ip, and theres no refresh button anymore lol
how retarded

but thankfully 2.5Ghz of overclocked venice cpu, 2gb of xms3200xl, an asus a8n sli premium 2 7800gt's in sli an xfi and a sata raid 0 array love the ingame.. it does seem smoother than before, and it loads just about the same.. only thing i see different to be perfectly honest is the jets seem somehow slower :S
also lazer guided missiles barely if EVER miss.. in one round i managed to take out 4 jets, yes jets, and 3 attack choppers.. they just go where u point them at last

but still, people have ALOT of issues.. all that hardware.. and if i close bf2 i have to reboot to re-open it.. because whenever i close it.. and click bf2 it gives me a crash report to send.. great.. reboot..
it IS screwed, YES they make patches.. but you would seriously think instead of making one bigass fucking beta, they'd test simple things like the fucking server browser?!

well said, i probably have a better PC than the guy who started this post but i'm not retarded enough to say this patch doesn't have issues. The server browser IS FUCKED so dont talk shite, you click on a server that says it has 34/60 players and yet the player list will sometimes appear empty. Pings in server list will come up above 200000 sometimes, special forces has random crashes to desktop on map load, vehicle drop is bugged on some maps, performance HAS NOT been increased i still get a soild 60 FPS like i used to, DEEP BREATH........ and finally the original poster is a complete and total fucking jackass who obviously knows absolutely jackshit about games and how they work so go back into the dark hole you came out of as your obviously blind and being in the dark probably suits you best.

stop hurting my feelings guys.

I have an AMD 3400+, 1 gig of ram, 8MB cable connection, and a geforce 5700 ultra (MINIMUM REQUIRED  CARD FOR GAME).  Runs perfect on my computer.  for those of you who think i dont know anything about games this isnt true.

you can see all the games i own and play here so i am not a noob gamer.  you guys just love to whine about  a bunch of shit.  go outside a little bit and learn about life and then come back to bf2 and you will be less angry at it.  i know its such a travesty that bf2 has patches that change the game lets all have a cutting party. runs great on my comp and game is still amazing.  props to the developers.  who cares if they want to sell games... i will buy as long as their good... plus their only like 50 bucks?  get a job then you will see how measly 50 dollars is 14 year old noobs

Maybe people would stop hurting your feelings if you stopped insulting people.I'm not under 14 but i bet over 40% of people in this forum are and are offended.

You can post about how good your computer is and how much money your racking in but try not to insult people.

Man Viceboy, you really seem to need some validation in your life. Your snotty attitude towards people who are having trouble with the patch seems to flow from your overtly materialistic, spoiled brat, contribute nothing to society, sack-o-sheeeaaat essence. I’m not saying you’re a total zero so far as human beings go. I’m just saying that when the taxi cab rolls over your body most people will just pretend it was a bump and move on. If a little validation from the big-boys helps you feel more secure in your ability to be alive without showing your lack of self confidence in such a blatant and quite frankly, embarrassing way then ok, fine, I validate you. I really don’t know why you feel the need to belittle people and make broad generalizations but maybe you could get a better soul and then everything would run fine for you. Scumbag.
