================================================== ==============================
Patch v1.2
================================================== ==============================

Hard Drive Space

Windows will require additional free hard drive space for its operating system
(virtual memory). If you encounter the following message in an error dialog:
"Ran out of virtual memory", free up some more hard drive space.

To install Battlefield 2 Version 1.2 you will need approximately 2.0 GB free hard
disk space for the full patch or 1.5GB for the incremental patch, plus space for
saved games.

If you have Battlefield 2 installed to a different hard disk than where you have
Windows installed then approximately 375Mb (full patch) or 100Mb (incremental patch)
of the required free space must be available on the hard disk where Windows is
installed.

To install Battlefield 2: Euro Force you will need approximately 800Mb free hard
disk space plus space for saved games.

BATTLEFIELD 2: SPECIAL FORCES AND THE PATCH
- It is very important to remember that the Special Forces executable is an earlier version of the game.
If you have purchased Battlefield 2: Special Forces after you have installed the patch, you will need to reinstall
patch 1.2 after installing Special Forces.

EXPANSION OF RANKS

NEW FEATURE
VISIBLE UAV
- The UAV that is placed by Commanders will now include a visual element. An actual UAV will appear within the
UAV detection radius and circle the area. Players will be able to shoot it down, bringing the UAV detection to a premature end.
The Commander will be able to continue placing UAVs once the timer resets, as per current design.

KNOWN ISSUE
ATI CROSSFIRE CARDS
- Crossfire cards with 256 Megs of memory, running in CrossFire mode will run out of memory at very high resolution settings.
On very high resolutions, such as 1920x1440 with 6x antialiasing. In CrossFire mode the ATI drivers are more restrictive
about where resources are allocated, and as a result run out of memory sooner than with a single board. This running out of memory causes
the device context creation to fail. The result is that the game just sits in a loop with a black screen. If you experience a context creation failure
change your resolution to a lower setting (e.g. 1024x768 or even lower).

IMPORTANT MESSAGE REGARDING BATTLEFIELD 2: EURO FORCE AND MULTIPLAYER
- All three Battlefield 2: Euro Force levels are configured for singleplayer as well as 16 and 32 players multiplayer.
64 players multiplayer is not supported.

Finally!

cryptic much?

wtf does it mean by unlocks added? did they add 2 new weapons? i'm going to be fucking pissed if they did since i used a bunch up yesterday

shitty about the helos though. i assume by "missiles" it means the rockets that take a bunch to spam anyway.

some of the changes are damn nice i'll admit. the SF unlocks are good enough already without every noob running around with a f2000, jumping and shooting a grenade at his feet.

Its a Swedish site, so you should get a pretty neat D/L speed (mine was sat at 1500-2000kb/s the whole time. ) biggrin:

had a chance to play this a bit and noticed a few things:

the PKM is a real beast. i was practically sniping guys with it in under 10 rounds. of course once everyone figured this out it was a support fest. on a similar note it's actually possible to kill people with the l85 now. the damage on that seems pretty beefed up as well.

the blackhawk, on the other hand, seems VERY weak. i'm not sure if the one i shot down was already damaged or what but i started unloading on one with a .50 cal and it exploded before the gun had even overheated. i always got pissed at the people who would use them for capping flags anyway but with the minigun damage reduction it might just be good for transporting.

has anyone had a chance to try the p90 yet? the damage on it looks pretty weak (19) but i've also heard it only fires around 600 rpm which would make it pretty useless.

Judas · 02-16-2006, 08:14 PM

another game ruined by noobs.

god damn it i hate fuking people who cant suck it up and learn to do something without someone proping them up. its awesome to go prone and be stuck there unable to move while an enemy shoots the shit outta you.

i cant fuking believe a company would do something that has the potential of discouraging nearly 1/2 its customer base to stop using its product. i mean fuk. i was planning on giving more cash for euro forces but they can now suk on my hairly nuts.

c312 · 02-16-2006, 08:35 PM

what are you talking about?

I just noticed the flash bangs effects don't last as long, before the flashbang would blind you for what seemed like forever, now it's only a few seconds till you get back to normal.
