[Mofoka]

EA have just updated the with a note stating that the v1.2 patch for BF2 will be available within 12 hours:

A quick note to let you know that the 1.2 patch will be coming out today. Servers are being transferred over now and the client patch will be available for download within the next 12 hours. We're sorry if there's been any confusion but thanks for your patience - just a little bit longer to go now!

There have been talks on the IRC network that a leaked release of the patch is already out @ 81MB and can be found on other sites. I have not posted it because this patch is unofficial and anything can change over the next 12 hours so if you do decide to download the leaked version of the patch be sure to copy your battlefield 2 folder just incase you need to revert back to the 1.12 version.

But in the mean while please keep a close eye on the EA BF2 homepage in the next few hours for the official release notes.

Hmmm.. odd. i never got an email from the community leader with download details to help spread the patch. either i'm off the list now or they have a new leader.

good news none-the-less.

Patch got released on fileplanet. Snagged it form there, tested it out. Everything is fine more then less. However as someone that was using the AA a fair bit, it went from bad to TOO GOOD. It's unfair AA is actually OVERPOWERED with jets. I thought alot of people were over reacting initially. Before You could take down a Jet in mobile AA, if you fire as soon after they bombed something, and it dosen't drop chaffs as it bombs. The real problem with AA before was it kept veering off and hitting friendly air vehicles. The roles of AA and Jets/helis literally flopped.

Things on the ground are better then before, almost ghost like, with no bunny hopping, jump and nade launching it seems a touch more real, IMO. The game is close to being fair on all sides, but they need to fix literally this one thing.


EDIT- Okay after a while, and some re-adjustments in tactics. AA is still a little too good, but the game is now more balanced over all. Air vehicles now contend mobile AA, while static AA becomes a target or avoided. pilots can't just fly with out care, choppers have to use cover more, and planes have to fly low to avoid lock, and make quick bombing strikes and then get out.

They ruined a perfectly good game IMO

You can shoot a gun when u jump who says u cant? The guns are way way way overpower, I shot a full health guy in the bak of the knee and he died.  The glitches are still there like the red name on a team mate shows up and it got worse by now the UAV picks them up as the enemy.  Also tanks can jump some how like WTF? Tanks can jump but people cant jump and shoot?!?!?! IMO they ruined a perfectly good game (Which was my fav, now I barely play) I play COD2 now.  The ranking system is stupid, theres more ranks but there so close together.  And all the unlocks snipers are the same power as each other.  All gunz are way to accurate.

Ok, go grab your pellet gun, find a target. Run at it at high speed and jump as high as you can in the air and try to shoot it. THEN tell us how realistic the bunny hopping is.
