Anyone read this message that comes up when the game loads?  I never got a chance to click on it....

What does it say?

Thanks.

Basically EA isn't going to address any of the real problems.

yep, only these issues will be fixed:

    * Crash bug when using Hummer with TOW in the Special Forces expansion pack has been fixed
    * Screen capture is now working
    * Performance issues with certain ATI cards has been addressed
    * Server browser can now filter by map name
    * Claymores - the number that can be dropped at any one time has been reduced to 2

the only important fix deals with screenshot capturing...

Hehe.. they say they are going to beta-test a hotfix (1.21) for the new patch

And don't hold your breath - enough people have died because they waited for EA/DICE to fix everything

Be reasonable - it says those are the areas are already adressed which implies they are looking into more areas..

* Crash bug when using Hummer with TOW in the Special Forces expansion pack has been fixed <<< don't give a shit
    * Screen capture is now working <<< how the fuck did they mess this up to begin with?
    * Performance issues with certain ATI cards has been addressed <<< don't give a fuck
    * Server browser can now filter by map name <<< dont fucking care
    * Claymores - the number that can be dropped at any one time has been reduced to 2 <<< ??? whatever
    >>>   NOTE: "addressed" means they are looking at the problem, working on it, BUT DOES NOT mean they will/can solve it. So it really means nothing.

My main problem is the shit that happens when I see a person coming round the corner and then I suddenly die. No sound of weapon fired, no visual of that person fireing, especially in SF, just "you have been critically wounded"...WTF??? that is a major issue. It is not my connection speed, which is average 60 ping, neiter anything else. I think two xeon 2.8s can handle anything.
Sooo, are they going to "address" that? If not, I can not play SF no more.

My screenshot function used to always work. Now with the 1.2 patch, i cant take screenshots anymore.  Does anyone else have this problem?

that means it did not work with the 1.2
that means EVERYONE had that problem.

That's usually because after four or five post most threads turn to crap and get off subject. People bickering back and forth. Having to deal with it over and over prompt people to skip the crap and address the original post. I'm guilty of the same thing.

The listed fixes as of now are "confirmed" fixes. Meaning it's done. Doesn't mean that's all.

As for an individual not giving a "____". Fortunately EA caters to the masses and not the few. If they did that we would have a crappy game. Maybe someone doesn't care if they fix the screenshots. For the players that use 'em and, the fact that it is used by EA as evidence of hacking, exploits, and padders makes it kinda important to 'em.

It's funny reading post about patches and such from people that know nothing about coding, C, or game design.


Might as well wear this on your shirt.
