Some (like 2% of other characters) I see run around with no gun, just arms 45 degrees straight out, looking like zombies.

If you ment that you see other players running like that, then you have possibly seen hack in action.
In RTCW it was LEGS...those revealed the ones that were using speedhack.
Then some smartass fixed the hack...
Of course that could be "just an odd happening", I doubt that.

No, that's just what happens when you are revived without a kit nearby. You end up with no weapon and the game freaks out a little bit and puts you into odd poses with no weapon.

I have seen other models fire guns (with no gun graphics in their hand).

Hmm....are you sure that YOU have your game still in "original" format ? You have not "tweaked" some graphics configs...? Or used some "external help software"...?
I'm not saying that you have, just curious...

This, also, is just a bug you see once in a while.

I agree on those . But remember, I sometimes write "the worst scenario".
The problem with those "bugs" and odds are (has been...) that everything, especially really strange things , are  put under "bug..happens to some, not to all..". Usually bugs tends to "work" for everyone...or for the most.

But yes, those animation "errors" are quite common in other fps games too.

Hmmm...interesting tip ! A good one

Hi,
First post.

My progress bar in BFHQ is empty, but all of the stats update fine. Halfway (nearly) towards next rank, but no progress bar. Not the end of the world, but I am assuming that I can still be promoted when the time comes?

-rockets and granadelaunchers sometimes reload 2 times or even 3 times in a row even though im standing still

-rockets go through tanks

-When you try to detonate c4, sometime it switches back to the C4 and doesnt detonate( musch less occurances in 1.03 but it still happens)

-allies STILL appear red on occasion

-on occasion the game would let the engineer fix a dying blackhawk in mid air( the wrench doesnt give the repair available 2 circle thingy as the blackhawk's life is draining)

-when flying over airfields or repiring a vehicle with a crate, there is delay

-game says connection failed even though the internet is working perfectly

-tanks push proned infantry out of the way instead of squashing them

-stat padding still exists because the statpadder who kills still gets alot of points

-on carriers, theres a glitch that teleports you on top of the helipad on the carrier if you stand on the rail underit and jump underneath it.

-game music still plays after I exit the game.

-jagged shadows

-enemies appearing as allies

and much much more that doesnt spring to mind at the moment

And while we're at it, here's the XFire fix:

from http://www.xfire.com/xf/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=37047

- Go into your C:\Program Files\Xfire folder and open xfire_games.ini

- Find: [4578]

You should see something like this:
Code:
[4578]
LongName=Battlefield 2
ShortName=bf2
Icon=bf2.ico
LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\InstallDir
LauncherExe=BF2.exe
LauncherPasswordArgs=+password %UA_GAME_HOST_PASSWORD%
LauncherNetworkArgs=+joinServer %UA_GAME_HOST_NAME% +port %UA_GAME_HOST_PORT% %UA_LAUNCHER_PASSWORD_ARGS%
Launch=%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_PATH% +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 %UA_LAUNCHER_NETWORK_ARGS%
ServerStatusType=BF2
InGameRenderer=D3D9
InGameFlags=DISABLE_RELEASE|BLOCK_ASYNC
ExcludeIPPorts=80,28910,29900,29901,29902,29903,29904


- Under "Launch=" append +playername yourusername +playerPassword yourpassword

- It should now look like:

Code:
Launch=%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_PATH% +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 %UA_LAUNCHER_NETWORK_ARGS% +playername yourusername +playerPassword yourpassword


- Restart Xfire


haven't tried this one yet, but looks legit...

Anyone else using All Seeing Eye? If so, you know it ain't working since 1.03. Someone at the SA goon forums recommended this fix:


from: http://www.totalbf2.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34363

Quote:

Go to your ASE directory (default C:\Program Files\The All-Seeing Eye) and open up filters.txt. Search for "battlefield 2" and here's what you should have:

Code:
Battlefield 2
ServerType: GS
RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\INSTALLDIR
ExeName: BF2.EXE
JoinTemplate: {EXEPATH} +restart 1 +joinServer {ip} +port {port} [ +password "{PASSWORD}"]
HostTemplate: {EXEPATH} +restart 1 +hostServer 1


Now, change the JoinTemplate line to this:
Code:
JoinTemplate: {EXEPATH} +joinServer {ip} +port {port} +username yourusername +playerPassword yourpassword [ +password "{PASSWORD}"]




This worked for me and my old ass machine. Should I make a new topic for this? (Sorry I'm new here...)

I had to change the letter n to uppercase N in the word +username in the line
JoinTemplate: {EXEPATH} +joinServer {ip} +port {port} +userName yourusername +playerPassword yourpassword [ +password "{PASSWORD}"]  to get it to work in ASE

Exploit
-Prone Jumping- Perfect accuracy with weapons if you jump and prone mid air. Hard enough to hit / register people flying in the air, but when they can hit perfectly while in the air, it goes too far. Fix needed definitly

Balance
-Grenade Launcher- Dont really need to go over this. Its damage should be the same as a frag, and a minimum range needs to be added (30m).

-Mobile Anti Air- MEC and PLA versions need to have their damage (against air) be greater then that of a ".50 cal" (Buggy/Humvee/Tank 2nd weapon). Just makes no sense, and the already weak vehciles and lack of smoke makes them unbalanced.

-Stingers- They still have terrible chase code, and will only hit things within 100m (if that). Increase "Accuracy" of all mounted, mobile and air versions of these weaopnons.

-Aircraft- Even with ghosting, lining up perfect shots and trying to get all your missiles at the right time, its nearly impossible to kill any plane in a 1v1 plane battle. The reason? People can pull impossible turns at 1200mph without any sort of G-Force effect.

I don't know if anyone else has reported this (or even experienced it).  I have only experienced it once, but a friend of mine has had it happen to him twice.  You go into a server and it thinks you are a Private!  Plus, it doesn't know you have any badges/ribbons, so it tries to give you badges you already have.  Sometimes it gives you your unlocks, sometimes it doesn't.

sound gets stuck for a three seconds, and BF2 minimized and few seconds later disappeares.
Happens 1:4 (every 4 entrances, 1 bug).

Many many times an allied soldier speaks the foreign language and his name appears in red. costs lot of TK points.
