I'm going to get AF regardless now. I didn't get Special Forces because I didn't want to pay another £20 for what is essentially just extra weapons. I doubt my pc as it is now could handle the increased (yet not advertised) system requirements.
AF is only £6 though, and it looks like a bit of fun. I consider that worth spending even if in the end I only enjoy the thing for 10 hours.

releasing a crap patch to their most popular game and then forgetting about it because they want to focus their attention on their new game may be good business decision, but it doesn't help us very much. not buying their crap makes ignoring the consumer a bad business decision. so the power is really in our hands.

He's the type who says "A duhhr, we can change America by not voting! duhhrrrrrrr!!!!!!!"
believe it or not those neat guys you like so much at EA and Dice have loads of people who went to school for years just to learn how to pay attention to consumer behavior! what i suggested was that consumers themselves become aware of how their behavior effects companies and then use their awareness to get better products. in this instance not volunteering money for products that fail to meet their advertised benefit.  i think this point was probably a bit too complex for you as you clearly misunderstood it. if you think i am whining then I think you probably have emotional problems and are projecting some sort of frustration with your life unto me through the internet. have fun in therapy.

why am i on the forums? i thought that was kind of obvious.


other than that i like the idea of the birds. little worried that the warthog will be too easily gunned down by AA/fighters.. do we really need a slower version of the f15? have fun fighting over that, tolerating the TKs, and waiting for whoever got the plane to crash so you can fly around for ten seconds before becoming "easy kill #48484" for someone on the other team. And though I also like the idea of the littlebirds.. if the minigun mounted in the window for the use of the passenger is like the one on the BH then what is the point?
I think we all know how the market system works.  But if your idea of trying to get them to change something is not buying the game, then good luck.  They don't care.  They still have hundreds of thousands of other customers all around the world.  What you are proposing is ridiculous.  It's not a patch, it's a BOOSTER PACK.  It's OPTIONAL.  And it's only ten bucks.  I don't know what your problem is.  Don't like it?  Don't buy it!  ComradeWho, we've had people like you and probably you yourself creating other discussions just for stuff like this. 

This thread is for people who are looking forward to playing AF.  So, please, if you don't mind.......

It is fine you don't download mods, but I was thinking when I saw one of you reasons, that was, "it's not official BF2."

I don't want to be rude, but, not downloading the mods because it isn't official BF2, I think that is a strange reason. Does The official BF2 stand for quality? For me, it was at first. But now, with all these new patches and bugs, I think that we've end up worst with the patches than it was at first. It would might even be better if we went back to 1.0.
Now, back on topic: of course, you can have your own reasons, and I think that if you had such bad experience with the mods of CoD2 that is a good reason. But if you meant with "it's not official BF2" that the things coming from dice have a higher quality than some mods, I disagree.
You're not being rude at all.  I honestly don't really have any new problems with 1.3.  And a lot of other people haven't either.  BF2 is still highly legit, and fun to play, imo.

I mean "Official BF2" as in having the Ranking system.  I've been playing CoD for the past two years, but I don't even have proof of that.  In BF2, you have something to show that you played the game, and the ranks and awards are something extra to work for.  It adds structure to the game

Compared to BF2, CoD2 is an anarchy.  Public server wise.  I think if any other people here play CoD2 they will agree with me.  Almost no support.  They've released one patch in the past eight months.  But the game is still in beta testing, it seems.  They have no concept of the term "recoil".

the really interesting part about AF is the maps take place on US soil.  You don't see that alot in games like this...

It's what made Red Alert 2 more interesting...

I was going to buy amored fury untill I realized that if you bought Vanilla, Special Forces, Euro Forces and armored Fury Bf2 that you have just wasted $100 on a game full of bugs.

If you like little birds that much, why don't you download project reality mini mod for FREE?
I mean, if a mod-team who are not payed to work on their mod, can make the little bird and distribute it for free, why doesn't EA distribute it for free?

I know, maybe you want new maps etc. but there are tons of mods and map packs on the internet which have less bugs than the last patch.

What do you get by buying armored fury? how many maps? how many extra vehicles? how many extra weapons?

Sorry for this skeptical post, but I think any free mod has more new stuff in it than armored fury.
i agree,all the crap in armored fury i got for free in teh USI mod and the project reality mod,and both of those are far less buggy and typically more fun then battlefield 2 has ever been

and btw,the a-10 is gonna blow in armored fury, a slow f-18 basiclly.and the gatteling gun is gonna be a joke,just look at the black hawk,they turned a minigun into a pea shooter,so these guys have no limits.on the bright side its definantly a twist to see some american maps in there,however 3 maps is a bloody ripoff.

Okay, folks, reporting to you straight from the front here at the Sharqi Peninsula radio station.  The time on on the Eastern Coast of the United States of America is officially 22:35, 5th of June, 2006.  Reports from home indicate that a massive invasion of the North American coasts has begun, with the Peoples Liberation Army of China landing in the Alaskan region, and the Middle Eastern Coalition landing on the Eastern coast of the United States, dangerously positioned in perfect striking positions for the final assault on the US capitol. 

>>>THIS IS NOT A DRILL<<<

USMC forces are in desperate need of reinforcements.  The final battle is upon us.  Good night, and good luck.

^^ Armored Fury download page.  Once you've paid for it, and it doesn't show up on the EA downloader, RESTART. 

Cya on the Battlefield.  I'll be one of the Spec-Ops raining C4 on your asses from the Little Birds!! HAHAHAH!!

you're kind of an idiot if you think consumer boycotts are pointless. it just makes me think you're somebody that's talking about something you've spent no energy looking into. oh and i also posted about the little booster pack.

rofl, with real life products, they are.  This is a video game.  Not the next-gen automobile.

It seems like you need to get involved in politics a little more.  You crave for that kind of stuff.
