Fuzzball_The_Shooter says that you will lose your unlocks if you choose them before the patch comes out. I don't know if this is completely true or not, but I want everyone to know this.

I didnt make it clear enough? oh well, here goes again.

That day when everyone logged on and found a bunch of free unlocks at their disposal, if you unlock them, you wont have them once the patch comes out.

So if you unlock the DAO-12, and download the patch, you wont have it.

do you mean that you will have to choose them again or that these unlocks have in effect been made useless.

wouldn't have EA stated that in their brief, umm, brief? you know they said something about the empty unlock window appearing, blah-blah-blah...nothing to worry about, just Punkbuster doing blah-blah-blah...?
i would think if this rumor was true, they'd say that you would lose the unlocks so no point in unlocking them...No?

Should be simple enough to fix.  "Look, I only have 6 unlocks when I should have 8."

there would be a point, you'd get to use them for awhile until the patch came out. then smash your computer in frustration because you lost them....

THE DAY THAT THE 1.2 PATCH COMES OUT

"Thank you for calling Electronic Arts Customer Service. For English, press 1. Para espanol, marque numero dos."

"Please state the game you have a problem or question with."

"You said: Battlefield 2. Press 1 if this is correct."

"Ok. Thank you. Please wait while I transfer you to the appropiate help desk."

[hold music]

"Due to recent high call volumes as a result of the 1.2 patch unlock deletion bug, you can only record a message that will be listened to by out Customer Service Representatives. Please do not leave any bomb threats, death threats or any hostile intent toward Electronic Arts or our employees. Thank you. You may begin recording your message after the beep."

Don't be retarded. Unlocks are stored on your profile with EA (i.e. if you log in from another computer they are still there...). The patch won't affect unlocks any more than it will your badges/medals/ribbons/points/time.

That being said I wouldnt put it past EA to change/modify unlocks/badge requirements/rank needs etc.

JUST REMEMBER THAT WHAT YOU HAVE EARNED DOES NOT LIVE ON YOUR COMPUTER. YOU CANNOT TOUCH IT. OR ELSE EVERYONE WOULD HAVE the WC ribbon by now.

I for one hope that I do lose it.  I wasted one of mine on the G3 before realizing that I should probably save them for the patch.

What this guy is trying to say, is EA is trying to make it so once the 1.2 patch comes out, any unlocks you chose from those 2 free unlocks a week ago will be removed, and you will be given back those 2 free unlocks. This way, you will have the opportunity to unlock the P90, L96A1 or both if you choose. They are doing this because a lot of people weren't aware they got 2 new unlocks because of the 2 new weapons coming out, and they didn't want them to miss out on the new content if they wanted it.

You will still have 2 more unlocks, you just get to re-choose what they will be once the patch comes out.

I don't give a fuck on this 'til EA says: "LOLZ! U 4ll gonn4 l00z them unlaWkZ! Bi4tches!" ^^

OK. Not really. But EA HAS to say it. If they don't -> why shouldt we loose unlocks? Just for fun?
