This is a rant.

On average, my game crashes to desktop once or twice per day when I click 'Join Game'.
Today, it happened the one time as usual. I was understandably pissed. Then I tried to join my clans server and the damn thing rejected me FIVE TIMES, crashing to desktop EVERY FUCKING TIME. After that I tried to join another server and had the same problem, so I ended up having to restart my computer (losing about a half hour in the process of all this)

And after this ordeal, it crashes to desktop AGAIN afterwards. Fuck patch 1.3

Then there's the vehicle drops. I'd pretty much rather they be taken out than fixed, because I know there's no way they're ever going to be stopped. I'm a tanker - on Karkand I was tank whoring a lot today to try and get my last couple hours for my Veteren Armor Badge and Armor Combat Medal. When in a tank the enemy commander cannot seem to STOP FUCKING DROPPING VEHICLES ON ME! Sometimes I lose as much as 3/4 of my health from this pussy 'cartillery'. I've often had to jump out of my tank because the car damaged it to below  3 bars of health and it caught on fire and began to burn. Once I had a car dropped on me just prior to artillery, leaving me at 3 bars of health. The artillery's splash damage then took me out within seconds. This is RIDICULOUS! FUCK PATCH 1.3!!!

And of course instead of having anything to do with patch 1.3 you pick on me tank whoring. Now that's relevant. FYI, the same thing happened to anyone in a tank or APC, not just the ones who were in there the whole round, and also, just entering a vehicle doesn't make you a whore. If you get in a tank for 2 minutes and kill a couple people how are you a whore? And what does that have to do with people dropping vehicles on the tank, APC, or other vehicle?

As for being late, I've had my problems before, they just came to a head today.

A possible work around for the crash on join bug......  Let the map load,  but don't hit the Join button right away.    Wait a good 15 to 25 seconds,  then hit it.    I used to have the same problem and would have to wait to join.   Now that I have 3 gigs of ram,  the problem has seemed to go away.

Yeah, I just stopped hitting the join game button and have the auto start box checked.  It's annoying to wait the extra 15-20 seconds after waiting all that time to load the map, but the game completes loading and I've got the kit screen up without a CTD.  Now I only get the server crash bug!

K, would you rather wait 15-20 seconds or wait the 2 minutes it takes up to load up the game and the map again so it can crash

This takes more like 6 or 7 minutes for me not 2. I've heard pressing escape helps, but I've had a crash after trying it before.

EA have already announced they have fixed a crash in BF2, they should release it as a hotfix ow rather than wait for a full beta test of all the other patch features/fixes. Looks like at least another 4 weeks of crashing for everyone

The crash to desktop problems are a pain in the butt,I give you that.

But complaining about cars falling from the sky?
Sure,if you are commander and your artillery gets blown up nonstop by enemy humvees falling on it this can be very annoying and definitely needs to get fixed.But if you get serious problems in a tank from vehicle drops you are definitely camping to much in your armored "tent"(the word tankwhore comes to mind,especially when you said on Karkand,where the US tanks stop and camp at the city-entrance).

The tank's got tracks,maybe you should use them sometimes....

I don't camp, it's totally unallowed in my clan's server. If I sat at the city entrance without trying to capture the hotel flag, I could get kicked from my clan, so there's that cleared up.

Usually it will happen while I'm trying to capture a flag, it happened a lot to me when I was trying to capture the suburb. I'd be killing anti-tank personnel left and right and be to the point where one more rocket will kill me, finally the flag is neutralized so they stop spawning and there's one left to kill.... I'm watching him behind the wall on a UAV on all of a sudden there's a car on top of me, I'm down to 2 bars of health so I have to jump out. I think a lot of the time the enemy commander is totally focus on dropping vehicles and arty, with an occasional UAV and Supplies thrown out for his team. I think he ignores the scan except to find the tanks and APCs, because if I pause in my tank for just 10 seconds (about the time it takes the vehicle to drop plus the commander to realize I'm not moving), say to engage enemy armor or capture a flag or any other scenario, boom there's a car on me. It's ridiculous. And everyone knows about the cars on jets and helicopters, right?

I like how I got two anonymous minus karma after signing the only two minus I ever gave. Here's one of the posted reasons:

shut your fucking cunting tank whoreing fucking shit speaking mouth up

I love it!

This works guys BUT you only get about 15-20mins playing time before your kicked.

Well if everyone is bitching about 1.3, your first mistake is, "Thinking EA/DICE is going to fix it". Your second mistake is thinking, "EA/DICE is going to fix it, without making another problem".

I don't know why we all dont go back to the last patch. There is nothing written in stone, thats says, "We have to use patch 1.3". Maybe if they see us all reverting back to previous patch, then just maybe some rocket scientist at EA will start to think, yah right thats funny, EA people think!

I am going on 13 days of no play, now. I am getting the itch, and I am going to just uninstall, and reinstall without patch 1.3. I am sure there will be a couple of servers out there.

Well I can always go back to playing Americas Army! And stop forkin over my hard earned money to EA/DICE, just so they can get me more aggrevated!

I don't think EA gives a damn what we think, they say they do but have they ever sorted out problems from point 1 (red tag bug comes to mind). I think as soon as they fix the Strike At Karkand Hotel Glitch they will make it so every single building around it is enterable through a door saying "donate £20 to EA and you can do whatever you want".
