I stopped playing battlefield a couple of months ago as the 2k4 insta season on clanbase was starting and its something I enjoy, After what has been a very successful cup thus far, things are starting to get quieter as we have now reached the playoff's in everything we entered. I decided to fill my spare time by going back to battlefield2. I reinstalled the game, special forces, euro forces and downloaded armored fury, Booted the badboy up and started to play, I died a couple of times an realised my join squad button didnt work, thought it was a bit weird but kept playing, then some fool dropped a jeep on my head just as I was taking a flag and this was promptly followed by a crash to desktop, I thought WTF?!?! I attempted to rejoin the server that I had been playing on and got a msg saying "lost connection" when I finally did get in I played for another minute or 2 and the server crashed!!
At this point I realised that EA's latest patch was just as good as every other patch they ever released, in short, make changes that screwup the game play even further than the last patch , decrease server stability just that little bit more and find new and creative ways for my P.C. to inform me that EA really has no idea how to keep a game running for more than 30 minutes at a time.
Thankfully we have the bf2s.com forums to let us know that we are not alone!!!
So I guess that, other than to have a grumble about EA, this posts is a thank-you note to the guy's who run this site, Without you I would have thought I was the only one suffering from the plague that is the EA patch.
I figure Im going to take a break for the summer from gaming and the moment UT 2K7 comes out buy that. ( I had planned on buying BF2142 but after my first, and only experience, with an EA game I find myself thinking I would rather nail my cock to my computer desk, pour lighterfuel on it a strike a match, than give them any more cash.)
BRING ON 2K7 AND THANKS TO THE GUY'S RUNNING WWW.BF2S.COM!!!!!!!

Almost forgot my main point. "why the hell did they remove squad hopping?"
