Yeah, well I don't know about you guys. But my BF2 has been closing like crazy as soon as I get into a server. Or like freezing momentarily. And I've had so many "Problem With Your Connection" that takes down the whole server. How bout you guys?

Can't play certain maps, "modified content". BF2 + EF. Not happened before 1.3. Might have to try full patch, not incremental.
(Side note to EA/Dice: If you can't get incremental patches to work, don't f@%king make them!!)

Plus fav server keeps crashing. Happens alot.

Positive:

Quality of graphics seems to have drastically improve with an x850 XT PE and drivers 5.11

Negative:

Sometimes you end up in slow motion mode, even standing up - can barely walk forward or backward - one way that seems to resolve this is to switch weapons.

Cannot join or create squads - for some odd reasons in a game there are squads created with available space in them - at the beginning or the game or upon being killed you cannot create or join a squad. As if it was the new spawn on leader feature blocking you from joining - but that's not what is happening.  Net resuts 70% of the team are lonewolves.

Wrong weapon identifed in a kill - use Claymore to kill and Rose says you killed dude with tank or vehicle u are driving for example .

Side note : Them planes sure are flying tanks and AA frankly useless now, 4 AA hits and bird still raping might as well provide pea shoothers at least we would understand how many peas it takes to have peasoup.


Claymore : Honestly peeps get real I'm afraid of looking at a claymore though the scope of my M95 in fear of being killed by it from 3 miles away - fix the darn radius this is a claymore not a feaken atomic bomb. What was wrong with the way it used to work - at least back them it exploded, nowdays it seems some peeps are even able to walk through them at times - or get blown away by it from a 100 yards away.

Mines: Euhh since when do you have to lay 5 mines to make sure you cover a narrow road?

Tanks and La 25 are able to drive over mines and not blow up - Karkand - as you go up the hill at train station 2 mines laid , tank rolls unharmed over it - up by the top of same hill - 2 mines layed LA 25 rolls right over it ??? NO they did not steer to avoid the mines - I was right there to watch.....and lay mines again but surprise..off course. Glitch or bug ?

Vodniks definitely do damage to vodniks when dropped on them.

2 other more cosmetic errors:

The IP of a server does not show up while it is loading, most of the time.  This does(:0)

Also, sometomes loading into wake on artillery island, the artillery is invisible until it is initially fired, then displays properly after that.

a funny fix that i have found with the crash to desktop problem when clicking on 'join game'.

when 'join game' appears don't press it straight away, give it a few seconds. then, click 'auto-ready' a few times. there is usually a small sound produced when you click 'auto-ready'. this sound, if it is going to crash, will not be present. only when the sound IS present click join game or use the escape key.

of course, this may not work for everybody but it seems to for me.
But should we have to trick the game into playability..

1) Vehicle Drops Destroy Commander Assets and in many ways gameplay... Add drift!

I also get the CTD error after FULL Uninstall And Reinstall of BF2 Vanilla with FULL 1.3 Patch...
It appears to be an issue with those that have TeamSpeak Installed, however I have had the issue since uninstalling teamspeak also.. Least I'm not the only one...

2)When Joining a Server SERVER Info displays all zero and sometimes no IP is displayed..

I haven't gotten past the JOIN button enough to notice ingame errors..

Im sure most of u guys noticed this by now: U can glitch inside the hotel building again using that retartded vehicle drop feature. heres some screenshots of some idiots that just stayed inside the hotel building the WHOLE round https://img114.imageshack.us/img114/8586/screen0275cg.jpg. we got wiped off the map. Xmetallicaguitar and some other guy were still inside campin the hotel. i went spectator. here was his score at the end of the round: https://img227.imageshack.us/img227/7871/screen0288rt.jpg

Karkand will officialy be the gayest map UNTIL they take of the vehicle drop feature.

1. Server crashes/drops clients often and randomly

I get this always now. I reinstalled patch 1.3 twice, I re-entered my CD-key. Everything of mine is up to date. What do I do?

Edit: I just found out it only closes when I load a server playing Strike at Karakand, what the hell is happening?

(1) When Joining a Server SERVER Info displays all zero and no IP is displayed
(2) Almost always crashing to desktop
(3) Ping was about 40 before now around 90

EA  make sure your patches work before putting them out even if it means delaying AF

Here is my problem, today I installed the 1.3 patch and it said it worked I got no errors or anything. But when I tried to run battle field it came up with the start screen before it opens the whole game and then it just quit. Any ideas how to fix this? I installed the BF2_Incremental_122_13.exe. Should I reinstall the game and install the whole bf2 patch instead of just the incremental?

Thanks,

I'll quote for truth, not invent the wheel...

- Server instabillity - a common problem under work, but I'll add it anyway..
- Several incidents of squad-bug where you couldn't create more than a certain amount of squads instead of the normal nine.
- I too had the AT-Mine kill show up as a kill from the Vodnik I was driving.
- The car-drop icon above another soldiers head has happend often.
- Reload-bug(You hear the reload-sound but no missile) or misfire-bug(you hear the firing sound, but no missile) on TV-guided missile both in Heli's and Bombers..

Misuse or exploit of vehicle-drop to make them kill enemy troops, hardware or comm. assets. (Like the squad-jumping I'm sure DICE didn't mean for the feature to be used as it is, let's see concistency in the removal of things that may be used in any other way than it was "intended")

Nice thread!

*more prone to crash to desktop
*more lag prone on higher populated servers in spite of low ping and/or graphics settings
*vehicle drop creates more problems than it has been beneficial to gameplay
*connection problem
*fails to spawn me until i REPEATEDLY select spawn points, especially when my original point was my squad leader
*aa missiles are worse than ever, mostly from essex turrets
*lag jump when firing sniper rifles, though I don't know if this is necessarily patch related, it seems worse in 1.3
*now that I mention it, sniper rifle crosshairs are WAY too thick, has anyone at EA ever used a rifle?
*I die too often

MOSTLY I HATE THE DAMN CLIENT VERIFICATION TIME!!! SOMETIMES HALF THE FLAGS ARE CAPPED BY THE TIME I CAN SPAWN!!! I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY DO FOR THE NEXT PATCH AS LONG AS THIS IS SOLVED, I'LL BE HAPPY IF IT'S THE ONLY THING IN THE NEXT PATCH!!

ok then,
do not use the incremantal patch, most of my issues were fixed since I installed full 1.3 patch.

I still have some weird stuff going on, as I mentioned before and for some reason I can only join and play Karkand servers (?)
not a problem for me since I live there when I'm on

waiting for fix 1.3!!@@@(é!!1

Here's my list of problems in BF2 V1.3 that I've come across:
  -  PLAY NOW Server Search takes 5-7 minutes to connect to a server
  -  Ribbons cannot be selected/highlighted in BFHQ Awards
  -  Game crashes to desktop randomly after loading a map and occasionally happening in a row
  -  Frequent loss of connection to servers for no apparent reason
  -  Make stats and awards for BF2SF viewable for all in BF2 (ex. SEALS Army Time)

Then, in my opinion, I believe these need to be addressed:
  -  Air dropped vehicles destroying Commander assets
  -  Some award criteria needs to be re-adjusted, (ex. Decrease the Distinguished Service Medal time's to
     50hrs or increase Combat Infantry Medal's time to 250hrs)
  -  Add additional awards to BF2 & BF2SF to fill all the blank slots (ex. Adding more medals in SF to fill blank
     space)
  -  Remove the restriction on not being able to shoot and jump at the same time to make the game more
     realistic

Although I appreciate this thread to be free of discussions, I both hope, and believe that jump&shoot won't be reimplemented.
If you ask me they should remove jumping. It is hardly something you'd see a RL soldier do.. Walking around with his support kit he decides he'll just jump instead, he'll get winded, but he can still jump - hell, he can jump all day!
And when an enemy suprises a RL soldier, we all know what'll happen! Jump, prone, shoot!

So reimplementing the Jump&Shoot will truly reflect reality...

My expierence with patch 1.3:

1. Account server takes a minimum of 2 minutes to login to, used to take about 30 seconds
2. When joining a game, servers appear/dissappear from server browser
3. Server browser no longer has refresh ability, and half of my favorites have vanished
4. VOIP still doesn't always work even on VOIP enabled servers
5. When joining a game, client verification takes longer now
6. After loading, clicking the join game button often causes the game to crash to desktop
7. Car drop kills PRONE players/Tanks/Arty/etc
8. Car drop icon appears at random and at locations where no vehicles are
9. Spontaneously died twice so far, no one near me, nothing displayed in the console or the kill log
10. Non-responsive keys at times, especially sprint sometimes will not engage even when I have full stamina
11. Random disconnects STILL rampant
12. When jumping or going prone sometimes there is a long delay before can shoot again
13. Long lag when loading into a game
14. Takes minimum of 3-5 minutes to unload resources, even with almost 2 gigs of RAM
15. And the most aggravating thing about any vehicle balance....T-90 acts like a tank, while the Abrams gets hurt by driving down a ramp...come on! If we're going to be that unrealistic, give us our uber choppers and dolphin diving back! Oh yeah and squad cycling too!!!

I really hope EA reads this thread, so that they at least address all the TECHNICAL issues that are plaguing this game. They need to stop messing around with balance issues for a patch or two and simply focus on fixing everything that is broken with the game on the technical side. Granted that might take more technical skill than they possess in which case they should simply hand their game over to valve for a few months until it truly works. :-D

I have been having issues in both BF2 and BF2-SF. I join a squad and play with that squad until the next round. But for some strange reason I can't leave the squad I was in to join a different one. The only options I have is to either disconnect with that server and reload, which isn't much of a option with the load times and chances of crashing or stay with a squad. Usually I end up disconnecting from the game.

Thanks,

1) When joining a game, servers appear/dissappear from server browser
2) Random disconnects STILL rampant
3) Intermittent problems with Server browser. If you switch screens between Internet games and Favorites, you no longer has refresh ability, and half of my favorites have vanished
4) Game crashes to desktop randomly after loading a map
5) XFire no longer seems to recognize people playing in 1.3 ranked servers (This may not be EA Related, more Xfire related but it worked with the 1.22 patch)
6) Moving to teams in the middle of a gunfight or whatever. Sometimes this happens for no apparent reason.
7) "There is a problem with your connection" is probably the most common one I run into. When I'm on teamspeak and it says this error, all of us get the error at the same time. Also, Non-responsive keys
8) When Joining a Server the "Server Info" displays all zero and no IP is displayed
9) It doesn't seem to load 4000 servers anymore in the Internet Servers list (Or whatever its called) its now only listing 2000K-2500K.
10) Red name bug still existent. I have noticed from time to time that some players won't have a name above them and you really can't figure out if they're good or bad guys.
