Did anyone notice the Commander glitch users. One by one they're getting their stats erased. Must suck for some of them. Especially rocketeerboy at over 1,000 hours played. He's going to go back to square one, like {TA}Firestorm did. Firestorm had over 1500 hours clocked, and lost it all.

Goes to show, that cheaters never win on a balanced system.
 
Commander glitch? :\

I haven't played BF2 in a while, I need my fix desperately :O
 
Its been a while since this topic had an update from me, about something related to BF2. But here is some news from yesterday.

EA Community Update - 1/5/06

A community update has been posted over at the official Battlefield 2 site about Armored Fury and the 1.3 patch.

Attention Soldiers!

Later today we will announce the Battlefield 2: Armored Fury™ booster pack for Battlefield 2™ which brings all-out mechanized battles to US soil for the first time. Maps set in the US have been requested by the community for quite some time, and we are pleased to deliver three that set the stage for huge armored warfare battles.

3 NEW MAPS

* Operation Midnight Sun: The conflict spreads near the Pacific Ocean in a key battle for the Alaskan port of Valdez, where Chinese forces are attempting to secure much-needed fuel from the pipeline.

* Operation Harvest: The MEC army begins their march East towards the U.S. Capital, and American forces must stall the advance long enough for reinforcements to arrive.

* Operation Road Rage: The MEC forces have infiltrated deep into the USA, and are using the highways to move quickly towards key industrial sites that are dangerously near civilian areas. (Kool now I can blow up some parked pimped out Humvees and Escalade's)

To balance the wide-open tank battles with aerial firepower, six new vehicles will be introduced, including 3 scout helos such as the MD 530, Little Bird, and 3 ground attack aircraft like the A10 Warthog.

In addition, patch 1.3 is on the way, and with it comes single player co-op support, so you can grab a friend and tackle the bots as a team. More details to follow, so stay frosty!

Sorry if I have not been playing BF2, for the last couple of months DQuan and Donbenni. I have been tempted to play it of late, but i keep forgeting to load BF2 up.

Co-op sounds awesome.

I guess you have to pay for these 3 new maps?
Co-Op could open up more capture the flag mods. DQuaN we so have to test out the Co=Op play, to see how many bots we can get in the air with one grenade. But remember the 3 new maps are part of the next add-on pack, which will cost money.

I would have to say £5.99.
 
Sounds good. I haven't played BF2 in months now. Doesn't help that i've hooked my PS2 up to my second monitor; every spare minute i have now i play GT4 or GTA:SA.

Will have to get back into BF2 again, was/is a good game.

My 360 seems to make me stop playing BF2 of late, and with summer nearly here. I may not be playing BF2 again until after summber.

Another thing that will stop me playing BF2 more will be my new Sky HD box, once its installed this month Donbenni.
 
I might join you guys too... I'm pretty good against the AI :lol:
 
Did anyone use to remember playing against the bots on DC or BF1942 with human AI on your team. Then seeing how many bots you can get in the air, I remember doing this a long time ago.

It was so much fun, then we steped it up to C4, Tanks and Heli's in DC. After that, it was even more fun
 
I was going to play some BF2 today, but ever since PR mod caused BF2 to go haywire on me. I had to reinstall BF2, SF and EF, and well now when ever I do a clean install with the current patch.

Well BF2 will still not load at all.
 
BF2 is quite a buggy game in my opinion. Whilst I really enjoy playing it online, I always have problems connecting (i get there in the end though) and it sometimes crashes to the desktop for no reason. Hopefully this new patch will sort things out!
 
Just bought Special Forces this past weekend and so far so good. The new maps are alright. The night maps are nothing special, though. I've only played it for about 3 hours though because I got horribly sick on Sunday while playing it. Nausea and a headache that lasted for like 6 hours. :(
 
Integra Type R you will like the night maps more and more over time buddy.
 
The patch is out:
http://www.ea.com/official/battlefield/battlefield2/us/editorial.jsp?src=bf2_1_3

New Features:

* Co-op: Players can now enjoy single player levels on Internet and LAN play with both Bots and human players. We have added a few options to allow the server admin to modify how the bots behave in game. Co-op play is not permitted on ranked servers.
* Air Dropped Vehicles: Squad members can no send a request to commanders to drop vehicles at their location.

Bug Fixes & Gameplay Tweaks:

* Ban list will no longer be wiped in the event of a server crash.
* Abandoned helicopters will no longer remain in flight.
* If a player joins a squad while dead they will not be permitted to use the squad leader as a spawn point until they have spawned at a flag once.
* Flag Capture bar will now react accurately to players entering the capture radius.
* Friendly vehicles will no longer appear as valid targets for missile systems. The box with the X through it will still appear however the locked tone will not sound and missiles fired will not track the friendly target.
* Fixed the crash that sometimes occurred when switching between game types.
* Fixed a tech hang when creating a single player account from an offline account.
* Fixed Issues with remote console and Linux servers.
* Fixed the issue that prevented players from ranking up in-game when playing on their regular server.
* Fixed the bug that altered mini map behavior.
* Fixed issue with Special Forces rank names.
* Fixed repairing HUD for the engineer when in a vehicle.
 
Crashes to desktop...trying to download the full instead of the incremental patch now, apparently a lot of people are having the same problem. :\
 
The same thing happened to my brother yesterday, which is weird considering it took them 4+ months to make the patch.

I hate them - oh awesome, i can barely see anything! This is sick! :lol:
 
Yeah the night maps are crap! And I haven't played BF2 in a while...servers still crash every so often.
 
Anyone still plays this game? I haven't really got any problems with 1.3, I re-installed BF2 and then the full patch and it works better than before.
 
I'm gonna start playing as well, but I need the new patch. Should I download that beta or just download 1.3?
