- Vehicle Drop Change?
I bet they just added a deviation like the Supplies have to a larger scale. I couldnt stay in game with 1.4 long enough to know.
We dont know what the change will be in the 1.4 patch but EA said that they would stop the cartillery. So maybe car drops wont be as accurate and land near to the specified drop site.
They've made a slight "randomization" in the drop zone, similar to the supply crate...
AND vehicles can no longer drop on buildings. This will make it DARNED hard (but AFAIK not impossible) to utilize the wall pass through glitch.
Not perfect, but good enough for starters.

Based on what I read, they added deviation and you can't drop it everywhere you want.... only roads and free space.
At least they are making headway, that part impresses me enough for now. BF2 may have a little more fun and life in it after all.
That will be weird, cos cars will land on roofs etc. all the time.....especially on Karkand.Gooners wrote:

And if it does hit something the car will be destroyed by flipping upside down (mostly) this doesnt happen to supply crates
Well something should be in beta for testingGooners wrote:

Whats the new min. for starting the game?
It is still possible. I hope they change this to be a little harde, but it is very hard. And I am hoping it to be IMPOSSIBLE ofcourse. I am just showing this so that this mabye gets fixed. We are actually playing 1.4 to be able to go to EA Forums and tell them whats wrong.

It took some tries thoe to succeed
But when I tried to drive in the car blowed up... hmm...
EDIT: The first pic isnt the same situation when the car landed corectly, but thats the same place that I clicked on, and that car on the first pic actually landed upside/down.

I don't believe they did. According to the changelog they just restrict you from dropping on top of buildings. However, in the posts above you'll notice you can still drop it in 'the spot'...I just think they made it harder.d3v1ldr1v3r13 wrote:

They didn't add any deviation to the vehicle or supply drops. You would think they would have a random +/- 5 meter from the spot the commander/Squad leader selected/requested...but no.

I'm hearing conflicting reports. Some guy said its 6 for 16-player map, 8 for 32. I haven't been able to confirm since I don't have 7 friends to test it with :-PColfax wrote:

it's impossible to drop it on roofs, hence no more karkand glitching...
I noticed an odd glitch, a clanmate was commander and he was able to drop 2 sometimes 3 vehicle drops in a row near the hotel on Road to Jalalalabad

all 1.4 servers are somewhere in Europe, therefore it's impossible for me to actually join a multiplayer game. Just finished playing SP Road to Jalalabad, and it's nothing that special.
Does someone know the new minimum to start a ranked game? I smell stat-padding..
The best solution I have heard so far is to only able to drop a vehicle upon request.

I think they should make the vehicles behaviour "in-flight" more interesting, like sometimes the parachute will fail...BOOOM! Or when the vehicle lands, it bounces around like a tit for ages. Just for a bit of comedy value I 'spose....
Here's a U.S. server for ya Spearhead:
La Cantina Boneyard- UNRANKED BF2
205.138.193.55:16567
There's a few more, just broaden your filter on the server search or check out game-monitor.com. (I think all the U.S. ones are unranked for some reason)

The guys who did the testing for the patch that brought in Vehicle Drops proposed most the ideas being proposed here... did DICE listen then...?
Personally, I agree with the 'upon request only' proposal
my two cents worth
