good thing about the servers
Dude if u think c4 throwing is BS think again. Tell me, were u able to throw c4 on day one of bf2 or were u able to noob tube of day one of bf2. Of cause its noob tube. C4 throwing is one of the skills that requires fast reflexes.=[4th]=SlayThem wrote:

So are all the ranks going to change, and all the guns. Or are the ranks going to change after the 2nd lutenate that we have now.... anyone know, because i think the ranks should stay the same.

Woo hoo new ranks alright... But as for being able to still c4 throw in cool with that. Definately happy no more shooting and jumping....bye bye peter cotton tail. I have a Doa-12 for your ass.
C4 throwing is such BS. Anyone who does it can go suck off. Lame and cheap tactic, even worse than noob tubing.
Agree, super gay! And stop the fucking whining about "you cannot throw C4, you must sneak on up on a tank", "you may not jump while shooting because I cannot hit you (and I don't realise that the jumper get ass bad accurasy)". Boo fucking hoo you cry babies! It's not a problem, IT'S NOT! So ppl jump and throw C4, well shoot them at distance then ffs!! Just lay down zoom the gun and gun them away. The bottom to all these fixes are all lamers crying "boo hoo, I got killed by this guy because this and that", can't you realise that others are better?!?!? We all have the same possibility to jump/throw/noobtube so stop whining if you can't get kills with these while others can.TehSeraphim wrote:

when they say "All officers ranking now availible" does that mean i can make it up to a 5 star general by 2010?
Ok plenty of complainging by the c4 chunkers. Plenty of complaining from the bunny hoppers. Where's the dolphin diver complaints? Oh well. Here's something I would like to mention that was said in that post. The idea that someone could run a regular BF2 server with the Euro pack sounds rediculous. Sure they can run the original maps on the server but what happens when they run a Euro map and you don't have the Euro pack. Will it just boot you from server and say "Sorry, shoulda gave your money to EA. Have a ncie day" I mean common, the guy acted like he answered the question on this and to me it still seems the question is there.
I've seen '86' used in this way before - never understood what it means - anyone?fumanchus wrote:

Personally, I don't agree with the decision to make it impossible to fire while jumping. A huge decrease in accuracy would be better. The only time it ever bothered me was when i got toobed at close range. Now that they've added a minimum distance, I couldn't care less whether they jump or not. If I were a tank whore I would be thrilled about the new patch; it's gonna be a lot harder to C4 tanks now.
I believe the correct word would be "chucker". The chuckee would be the one whom the C4 is being thrown at.evillbill wrote:

I'd like it if they stick in an extra rank at 13,000. It's large gap between 8,000 and 20,000!
yes that is the case but u will not c this rank cause it it like the SMOTCcyborg_ninja-117 wrote:

LOL, that isn't that large of a gap. 12,000 can be done in a couple of weeks. I now can pound out about 500 points in 2-3 hours of play in an evening = 24 days, just over 3 weeks. That is a reasonable amount of time to gain a rank. The 20k - 50k gap is a little harder to achieve, but Sergeant Major should take some dedication to the game and not just be handed out quickly.Camp Freddie wrote:

Now the REAL gap is the 150k between Sergeant Major and the officer ranks. My guess is that they will drop the officer rank requirements, but leave the enlisted ranks alone.
I believe the correct phrasing would be: "The chuckee would be the one at whom the C4 is being thrown."BiRdMaN829 wrote:

To be '86'ed' means to not be available. Originates back to a restaurant in NYC that listed all the items on it's menu with a number. #86 was almost always not available, so the term '86'd' was born.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

Being "86ed" or getting "86ed" is a term that is commonly used in the restaurant industry, and others as well. An example is: "86 the salmon." in other words we are out of salmon. No more, Nada.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

You must have started playing after patch 1.03. 8,000 to 20,000 isn't that much. Going from Corporal at 10,000 to 25,000 pre 1.03 was a stretch. 50,000 as an E-9 all the way to 2nd Lt. at 200,000 is what you would call a large gap.Camp Freddie wrote:

The UAV trailer won't be on the game anymore (I presume) and if it is it won't do anything. When the commander calls in UAV the plane will apear over the spot he dictates and it will be then up to the enemy to shoot it down, but even when the do the friendlies would have got some useful info from it already.

Honestly, C4 throwers don't bother me. If you are rocking the tank or APC, you should be able to deal with them most of time. If the are far enough away that they are throwing the C4, then the are far enough away to get a clean shot with the cannon or machine gun before they can detonate. Especially if you take the time to pick up a gunner.
Anybody know anything about this part?
When you pick it up, does it get added to your inventory?
If it goes into your inventory, does this allow you to carry more (i.e. if you have five AT mines or C4 packs and pick one up, do you now have six)? I doubt they will allow that, because an ammo box would allow you to place, load, place, load, place, load, place, than pick it all up and head off with 20!
My speculation is that you can pick up any, but if you already have the "limit" they just disappear. Does anybody here actually KNOW how this will work?
It sounds like you can pick up a mine put down by anyone, friend or foe. I like it!EAUK_Protagonist wrote:
All mines (Claymore, Anti-vehicle, C4) can now be picked up by the same class that dropped it by using the “G” key.

Bunny hopping is a cheap tactic. It is not realistic. I have never been in war but I am pretty sure our military doesn't hop around while shooting at the enemy. Just my opinion.
Pretty sure they don't respawn either. What's your point?soldier4john316 wrote:

No Hopping for me.
bunny hopping is just stupid
you cant shoot someone so you hop around to buy yourself time to place shots
except that you cant really place your shots when youre jumping
so yeah, its dumb, but i guess it doesnt matter since i do this really cool thing called moving the mouse since a jumping person is not hard to trace
this does sound good if it gets rid of dolphin diving tho

I don't like the idea that a UAV can be shot down...however in the Operation Iraqi Freedom I believe 2 or maybe 1 was shot down. I know one of for sure. I think the UAV should be really hard to be shot down. I mean in all actually it fly really high and its completely white that blends in with the atmosphere no comoflauge like it is in the 1.2 video teaser trailer. But all in all I am going to be happy with the changes...mostly with people not being albe to throw C4. (Austin Powers accent) I mean honestly, who throws a C4!!!!
