good
too little too late in my book, thats a huge red flag. maybe if they packed the patch with 10 new weapons and 10 new maps, then i can understand the delay. i expected better from douchebag DICE and EA.Fat_Swinub wrote:

Firstly, sorry I have been away for so long, its been a busy time. So here as per request in a number of threads here is an update to where we are with 1.50.
* Yes its still coming
* We have been working on a few things to do with DRM as old versions of Battlefield 2 use an old version of SafeDisc
* We have had a number of last minute hacks appear which we have made fixes for to help stabalise the servers.
* We have a minor issue to solve with the Chinese version of the game.
While I can't give an exact date, we are aiming to release our first Beta towards the end of April '09 as long as everything else goes well.What we are looking at doing for Battlefield is removing the requirement for the DVD to be in the drive during boot up. Whether we can get this going is what we are checking. It won't limit your installs on other machines or limit how many times you can install though.
If you've got the money to cover the costs of producing all of those new weapons and maps then send it in.specialistx2324 wrote:

1) i bought BF2 on DVDROM
2) i bought special forces XP and the european force XP
3) i got several of my friends to buy and play BF2 and more people followed
4) several of my friends did exactly what i did from steps 1-3
I think EA/ DICE has more than enough money to improve this game 10X over , especially when I bought a crap load of EA games..does that all this ring a bell to you... if not, then that is not my fault .. understood.
You bought BF2 and SF almost four years ago. BF2 is an old game by computer standards. The DICE studio won't recieve a shitload of funds when another studio under EA's banner produces a game. Like I said, if you want to provide the money to cover the working hours of the mappers, the coders, the animators and the testers for 10 new maps and weapons, be my guest. But what you paid two to four years ago does not cover expenses for ten years.specialistx2324 wrote:

stop whining, go make your own game then, so we can all judge how terrible it is.
