TotalBF2.com: Are the changes for patch 1.2 permanent? (Meaning, are you accepting input for this declared patch or is it already being finalized?)

Armando: We are in the process of wrapping up patch 1.2 and kicking off 1.3. This means that the fixes that will make their way into the 1.2 patch are being finished up for testing and what didn’t make it this time around is being put in the list for the next patch.

The process of addressing issues in patches is kept very flexible. If there are fixes that the community would like to see in 1.3, let us know about it. There are no guarantees, because everything is prioritized depending on what aspect of the game if affects, who is requesting the fix, the amount of work involved, the risk of affecting other elements, etc, etc, etc.

I should also point out that there has been no word as of yet whether there is anything planned after 1.3, but then again, there was no plan for patch 1.2 or 1.3 until a few months ago. These types of things are very dynamic and are usually driven by customer support. The more demand and support we get from the community, the more support we can provide in return.

TotalBF2.com: Can you please comment on "Dolphin Diving" is no longer possible?

Armando: We’ve implemented some fail safes that prevent the user from inputting the commands that cause dolphin diving to occur. To the regular player, the fail safes will be almost imperceptible. When a user rapidly and repeatedly jumps and then goes prone, he will find that this is now completely impossible. The transition in first person view will match the third person view.

hrm... that compainy cant say it didnt plan to release a patch, thats BS, no really... thats funny because thats what alot of people would think.. that game needed patches for so many problems and EA didnt think it needed a patch.. LMAO.

i hope we get more patches for 1.4 because i know 1.2 isnt going to cut it, and 1.3 will be basically what 1.2 was suppose to be... but since people wanted alot of importaint stuff out its worth it to release early a bit.

this also makes me laugh because everyone complained about rainbowsix3 and that game finally got patched but they stuck the crappy idiot munkey people on it... the rejects basically, because they didnt even do anything right, this is how compainys treat us gamers, its sad.

and  even with so much more complaining we didnt get any thing else and then we got no patches at all. sad really, but the game was broken from day one (rvs that is).
