Greetings,
We recognise that this has been a very trying time for everyone who enjoys Battlefield 2 and are putting forth every effort to improve upon the issues that are causing some players frustration. The DICE team has been reviewing player feedback gathered from forums, email, and the ranked server providers in an effort to provide the best possible step forward from 1.3. While this work has been highly focused on bug fixing the team has also managed to put some work towards new content.
Some groups have noticed the testing of a new map “Road to Jalalabad†being run on our test servers. This map will be included in our next patch release and is not part of a new booster pack. Some of the items on the change list for this next step are:
– Reversion: Allowing unlocks on unranked servers
– Fix/Reversion: We fixed the issue preventing mod teams from running multiple game modes in one map list.
– Tuning: We have lowered the number of players needed to start a ranked game.
– Tuning: We have made some modifications to the vehicle drop feature introduced in 1.3. These changes should reduce the overall impact of ‘cartillery’ on game play.
– Crash Fix: We have located and fixed a crash connected to 1.3.
These are only a small portion of the fixes being worked on for our next step. We would also like to announce that we will be holding an Open Beta in early July for this next patch. We will have public servers hosted, Beta files available on mirror sites, and specific threads for feedback during this Beta period hosted on the EA forums.
As always keep your eyes on this space for all the latest Battlefield News.
-The DICE Battlefield Team

yeah thanks, I mean having ‘unlocks’ on an unranked server is far more important than say … regular crashing to desktop.

Will they ever learn??
Why can’t they just do bug fixes in this patch? Bug fixes and new content = new content and more bugs when it comes to their coders.
Seriously, since they started to mess about with things like accuracy and RoF on guns, vehicle drops etc the games just got worse. Nothing like being one shoted/Sniped by someone insta prone with an PKM etc
And the insta prone is another thing that needs to be looked at just like the bunny hopping was, heck even I insta prone now just to avoid being killed every time I come face to face with the nme.
Still nothing to tone down the J-10’s rate of turn either…. 🙄
No mention of making the Blackhawk guns being able to hit anything, other than a stationery object at 2 feet…. 🙄
No mention of the TOW/ATM missle bug which still happens all too often.
No mention of server stability issues which plague all servers at present and are totally random. Jump on and play for 2hrs no problem, jump on and either ctd on join, play for 5 mins and watch the server crash, join another for the same thing to happen again. Had this happen 3 times in a row the other night.
No mention of sorting out the POS excuse for an in game server browsers, lets face it just take the fecking thing out. EA need to wake up and approach some that actaully knows what they’re doing when it comes to browsing game servers (ASE/QTracker etc) Gamespy don’t and never will have a clue in this respect.
Another thing they should do is go back and re-optimise the SF maps some of them turn into lag fests even on high end machines (just like standing on the bridge in Op Roadrage)
Still I suppose we’ve got until 1.6 for this to finally be what it should have been like when released ala BF1942 🙄
/faint 😡
Tuning: We have lowered the number of players needed to start a ranked game.
Maybe not so much a problem with your server but it should help quite a few others which in turn can’t hurt the game/community and their take up playing.
(right now I really should go to bed having whored your forum for a bit)
