Battlefield 2

Patch 1.41 for BF2 in the work!

 

 

Greetings!

 

There is a lot happening in the Battlefield Universe. Our work with the update has now moved into active Closed Beta testing with the Combat Studios team to verify the fixes in a live environment. We wanted to add a few more items to the listed fixes for 1.05 for everyone to review prior to release:

 

-Assault Rifle Improvement: We have made slight adjustments to the deviation of the Assault rifles to increase the accuracy of short burst fire. Long duration full auto fire will still create significant deviation. These changes will help the assault burst-fire performance in medium range fire fights.

 

-Server Stability Improvements: We have made some improvements to the server stability. These improvements are currently being Beta tested by our ranked server partners in an effort to have a solid final release. We will continue our effort to provide increased stability with each new BF2142 Update

 

-Fixed an issue with the Silver Titan Destruction Badge not being awarded when core is destroyed

 

-Fixed an issue with the ground defense kills not being properly counted towards the Ground Defense Ribbon

 

We would also like to thank the entire crew at Combat Studios and Multiplay.co.uk for their tremendous efforts in helping with our Beta Testing of 2142. If you would like to help out with future Beta Testing of 2142 Update releases please sign up here.

 

For our European Clan Players the Battlefield 2142 Cup is beginning. Your clan can sign up until November 18th at the Clan Base website for your chance to win great prizes. We look forward to watching the competition and cheering you along.

 

There have been some questions regarding stats sites for Battlefield 2142. We will be allowing these stat sites to provide the services many of you have enjoyed with BF2. However we are currently taking steps to ensure that the activity of these sites, specifically the additional traffic they create for the Stats Database Servers, does not negatively impact players in game. Over the course of the next few weeks we will be finalizing the steps needed to ensure a quality experience for all players.

 

We will also be finalizing patch 1.41 for Battlefield 2. More information regarding the content and final release date for this patch will be released next week.

 

To wrap this up we also wanted to note that the next round of the Battlefield:2 ModLight is coming up with its review of the BattleRacer mod. Please join us in appreciation of another great BF2 mod!

 

 

Be sure to keep your eyes on this space for all your official Battlefield Updates!

Joo not read Foo.

[MyMothersMySister]

Never been one to read anything through has our plaffy.

 

Sunday night = BF2 night? I'm going to be on anyway as my brother just got it. Wants me to show him the ropes and stuff. He'll be poo some come along and grab some easy points from him. I'll fire a couple of pm's of to the likely suspects later. Or pm me if you are up for it.

 

[BroDan]

Might do, I played a few games this week but as usual ended up on servers with fags...

 

One thing I hate about FPS.

[Chalk]

I might actually be able to get on this sunday night. Exams finished yesterday and I'm not working in the morning monday (although I have planned to go out with my brothers to a pitch and putt golf course) so I could stay up late and join in with you guys.

 

Just let me know what time (GMT) you'll be on.

[Platinum.]

Yeah I'll try and get on Sunday night. I'll do my best.

[MyMothersMySister]

Great, I've been poking a few people on Xfire too in regards to a game tomorrow night.

 

Should have a few chaps there all being well.

 

about 8pm?

[Daz]

Own.

 

They best give us some good sh*t.

 

And the AR's are fine why the hell do they have to go and f*ck them all up all the time.

[flitcroft101]

hi im looking to play some bf2 but the server is empty?!?! GET ON THE DAMN SERVER PLZ

[MyMothersMySister]

The current server expires on mopnday so a few of us are on this weekend.

 

I'll give you a poke.

 

There's talk of us grabbing an unranked server sometime next week and playing through the different mods available for BF2. News will follow.

[Platinum.]

Sounds like the bizznizzle.

[Chalk]

Grabbing an unranked server might not be too far. We could f*ck around and do stuff we wouldn't usually be able to do. (Sounds like me actually having a good round, being able to do stuff we don't do normally)

That's the idea.

 

A few of us over at PwnStars have had enough of the points crap. T'was fun for a while but I'm not interested in it anymore. I see modding the server to death, making videos and playing other mods like PoE2 etc the future, Until something better comes along of course.

 

Anyone interested in the server, PwnStars or a casual gaming session can feel free to post here or contact me for further details.

Count me in, wanna play more with the GTAF'ers.. Don't have SF tough

[Brutuz]

Man, now I've got to download buy these games, I really want to play a newer Battlefield than Veitnam (Beat all the missions + patch missions 3 times)

[Vanillainy]

God i missed BF2. Been stuck with CSS Singleplayer for ages.

 

Will be playing again soon.

[Parky.]

New patch is out btw. I'd link you but I cba.

[Platinum.]

Are you sure? I can't find anything anywhere?

[Vanillainy]

You mean the 2142 patch? Can't see a BF2 patch.

 

Is 2142 any good? I thought it was a bit pants playing the BETA, i might get the demo off this EA Link thingy and try it. I may buy it when i get a bit of money and a new gfx card.

[Barguast]

The 1.41 patch is now listed on TotalBF2's news page.

 

A 536MB client patch which is predominantly to fix a server issue? There isn't even an incremental patch.

[Vanillainy]

I want incremental :'(

 

f*ck downloading half a gig to fix one little thing, silly.

You really won't need a brand new Grapics card to play 2142. Not much is different. If you can run BF2 on some medium settings on your current set up then you could very easily run 2142 smoothly. The game is alot of fun it's just the maps are smaller in my opinion and if you join most servers it's all about Titon mode. Not very many seem to want to play a good old game of conquest anymore.

[Vanillainy]

Oh, its not just for BF2142, we were thinking of getting a new one anyway as we have discovered a PCI-E slot (YES PC WORLD, IN YOUR sh*t FACES)

 

Just played a couple of round of jalalabad, my god, im back in love with it.

[Platinum.]

I want to fall back in love with it, but I can't find the time any more. Year 10 workload for the lose!

 

I'd be up to playing tonight on the PWN* server, if anybody's interested? Since the server expires on Monday.

[San Andreas Nut]

I just got the BF2142 Demo

 

and..

 

 

IT CRASHES.

 

sigh.

 

why? I cant play for more than a minute and it crashes back to the desktop, I have all the latest drivers etc. anyone else have this problem??

 

I have a decent machine as well, which played BF2 fine. 1gb ram, NVIdia 6600 256mb, 1.6Ghz processor..

[Chalk]

I remember having a similar problem with BF2. It was something about my particular card not being one of the ones they had specified. Got some program off the net that fixed the problem.

 

Maybe trying a Google search might yield some answers but don't hold me to it.

ugh will the problems ever end? yeah already had a google, no luck

[Chalk]

Would there be any problems with installing this mod for the game. I guess it means that I wouldn't be able to use that version of the game to play normal online but for the unranked server you guys might be getting, would it work?

 

I was wanting to try it out but I'm not sure if it'd be worth installing another copy of BF2 and modding that version.

 

 

[TenaciousD.]

I'll be on BF2 this afternoon about half 3 if anyone wants a match.

 

I'm thinking of getting a new PC for Christmas, i obviously wanna play BF2 on it so its needs the Spec. needed to play, anyone got any suggestions for cheap PC's which can handle BF2 it would be appreciated
