I tried the single player mode and it kicks ass...
Night vision with a sniper rifle is so much fun. ^^


Got hit by a flashbang and gas grenade at the same time... 
I was blinded by the flashbang and couldn't see that I was standing in gas also.
It was to late when I realized the gas but I put on the gasmask anyways.
The screen goes all blurry and wavy like as if you were drunk.  =p

I still need some help guys. No multiplayer servers are showing up. I bought it in stores and it patched when I installed. The version says it's 1.1.2 but there are still no servers showing up. HELP ME.

Uh...guys. Re-read the patch announcement. It said that as a preview of SF, they're releasing some weapons from it as unlocks for normal BF2. In other words, normal BF2 players do not have to own SF to use the new unlocks.

I would've thought that the absurdly-large filesize would have tipped you guys off, especially considering that there are no new maps for normal BF2.

EDIT: Just checked myself now that my patch has installed and the patch does indeed give new unlocks to vanilla BF2. However, there is one minor discrepancy: Instead of getting the F2000 like the patch announcement reads, the Assault kit unlocks section shows a Flashbang grenade (and description) instead. Hopefully this is a bug, as a Flashbang for Assault would be stupid...

OK, so could someone please explain the rank/unlock system to me? I am Gunnery Sergeant, and have used all my unlocks for BF2. Does this mean I get the second set of unlocks for every weapon I have in the first set of unlocks? Or does it mean I'll only get one unlock from the SF expansion because I'll never get to Master Gunnery? I know I'll get to First Sergeant, so will that just be the only new unlock I get?

1. We know stats will be interweeved, but for kit combat badges, do you think curent time will count? It would blow HARD if you had to start your kit time from zero AGAIN.
I think so.


jnick wrote:

2. Are there any NEW ranks? If there are, would they be WAY up at 200,000+ or would it fill in the gaps betwween 50,000 + or between 20,000 and 50,000.
Don't know yet.

3. @ Chuy - Yeah, I know I'm early, but what do you think the ETA would be on the new reqs. for the new awards. (Like I said I know I'm way ealry, but just wondering what you have in mind)
I have to get my hands on the data file, but that shouldn't take but a day or two.


jnick wrote:

4. @ Chuy - How do you think the new stats wil interweave on the site? WIll you need new tables, or has EA made it possible to simply add the new stats to your current feed? Or will it be something like in BFHQ - A seperate page for SF stats? Same goes for awards. Are they simply tacked right on the current table, or will there be a new table/page for them?
Very easily, actually. Just have to expand the tables (on your profile page) a little bit longer and probably add another row to the awards section.

I love the game so far. The new choppers look badass and they are a little bit harder to fly, which I like. The Apache kicks ass. The new weapons are sweet, and I love how im finally getting some new badges/ribbons. The only thing that dissapoints me is my computer, which can really on run bf2 and SF only almost all on low.

one bad thing is that MEC Special Forces, Rebels, Insurgents and Russians all got basically the same weapons as the original MEC army.  Brits/SAS got new weapons.  The Spec Ops and Medics come with G36E as stock weapon which is basically the g36c but it has 3 bullet burst mode...i like it.  SAS also has mp7 for engineers which is small weak ass machine gun with only 20 bullet...wtf!  There's a funky Support rifle for SAS which kinda looks like g36 but bigger and can fire in burst mode.  Assault rifle for SAS assult looks even wierder and has a decent scope but i don't like the way it shoots.  None of the sniper rifles are different.

Grappling hooks for assault and anti tank.  Zipline for Spec Ops and Sniper.  You only get to use this feature once per player.  Tear Gas for Support which fires like grenade launcher.  No change for Engineer or Medic in special abilities.  Everybody gets night vision (press 7) or gas mask (press 8).  And assult now has flash grenades.  Blind you in normal vision...blind you alot if in night vision.

As I mentioned before the new vehicles are disappointing.  The ski jets go pretty fast but are not too mobile.  Haven't tried any new tanks or air vehicles yet...

don't know anything about new awards...

PATCH 1.12 is so f...king dissapointing...why couldn't they release this before launch date?
I am sorry but in your second paragraph were you say "zip line and grappling hook can only be used once per player:,,,, this is wrong.. if you press the G BUTTON you can pick it up again and use it forever,,, thats a nice piece of info for ya huh?

I am thinking of buying the game, and was wondering where you can download it from the EA site does it just integrate and update your original BF2 game or is it like most other Expansion Packs and is completely seperate. Just wondering since all the stats are integrated as well. sorry for the stupid question
