i blame EA wanting more money and making dice make the game as quick as possible, not giving them the chance to fix ALL the bugs, making them release boosters instead. EA are money grabbing cocks. why do i play EA games because they pretty much are the computer games industry now!!!

Yes, DICE keeps messing up and leaving glitches and other errors in the game. But you are not paying a montly fee or anything. They already have your money. I actually have to give kudos to DICE for even trying so much.
Sure there is bugs, but at least there attempting to fix them as mentioned.
I enjoy and support the game regardless, and i will invest money for enjoyment in 2142 when its released as well.
I <3 Strykker. And |TOP| really...
I have no problem with them openely beta testing the patch.
Its a good way to find the problems before they finally release it but the problem I do have is it should have been done with the FIRST patch.

I still like BF2, yeah there are problems, I have no idea who caused them, but hey its a game, if it gets to bad I won't play it.
Yeah i know it cost me £20, but I feel I've had my moneys worth out of it already, I find it alot of fun, still!.

I have.. I was making games when you werent even an itch in your daddys pants..stryyker wrote:

This was when 'PC's were still called.. Personal Computers and modems were 110 baud.
Ive written many games... got out of it 5 years ago, retired at the age of 36..
Ive said it before, I'll say it again.. If DICE wants me to write a better server browser
for them, I can have it done over night.. beta test it for 2 days and have it implemented
whenever they wish.
If I was anywhere close to the top of the food chain at EA or DICE these days, I guarantee
you patches and hotfixes would have been issued IMMEDIATE, not A YEAR LATER.
But hey, you go ahead and be satisfied with a product thats still not finished A YEAR LATER.
'b..b..b..but all games have bugs..' YEP... they sure do... Every game I ever wrote, and every
game I ever bought had bugs.. but you know.. honestly... within a few weeks time.. 99.9% of
the bugs were fixed.. I can name at least 5 MAJOR bugs in BF2 thats have been there since
day one and still havent been fixed..
Cmon, get real, Their latest 1.3 patch was a total disaster.. what was fixed any how? Well its hard
to tell when they break more things than they fix..

EA has always been money hungry and they always will be. I hate all the whiny ass bitches who complain every single time a new patch comes out. "OMG! When people shoot at me it takes my life! Wtf kind of bs patch is this? Change it, change it, change it because I suck!"
I don't mind the patches because I adapt to the gameplay because that's all you can really do. The main problem I have is that very little time and/or effort seem to go in these patches because they're always full of bugs and exploits. I say take a couple extra weeks/month and create an ACTUAL patch... a patch that ACTUALLY fixes something and improves a game. Not a temporary bandaid that creates nearly as many problems as it fixes.

you know you got problems..
1 year after release, too...
EA, DICE.... wow what a team.
its the marketing team of them, they let you think you help, and that they are nice, but your WRONG, gamespy sponsored the new map, they don't give stuff free, just like wake was made FOR them...
now, most noobs will think "maybe they aren't so bad, they let us help, they are nice people"
if your one of them, i hope the same happens to you as too butters when Eric Cartman was ignored.....
ea wants money, like every company, the motto "big enough to cope, small enough to care" is not applying on them
its really just so you will like them (beeing allowed to "help" with the beta), and buy 2142.
moaning is good
no matter what all the 'complainer haters' say... they still cant get away from the FACTS.
FACT: 1 year after release, this game has MAJOR issues.
Its to the point now, where they should bundle YIM, XFIRE, TS, etc with the game because
thats the ONLY way youre ever going to find your buddies in this game.. What a joke!
I know people who dont play this game for the mere fact of the bugs, and hassles. They
say the game is ok once you get past all the bugs and b.s... but they just cant stand a gaming
engine THIS bad.. and yes, it is HORRIBLY BAD.
BF2 is one huge beta test for upcoming BF series games using their new engine.. We've all been
paying beta testers for a year now.. and now its gotten so bad they are issuing patches to the
public in beta form.. I been gaming for 20 years, Ive never seen a 'beta patch' for the public.

i dont know why some of you are defending ea and dice, linus is speaking the truth, but u battlefield fanboys just cant hear it can you
As I recall, some titles are touted for their bug-free environment, whereas others are pushed to a release before they're ready, thus subjecting purchasers to a headache-filled environment of unplayability. Battlefield 2 establishes a delicate balance between the two.stryyker wrote:

As for this patch, I applaud the dev team for getting feedback from a multitude of players this time before dropping what could be a two-ton disaster in our laps.
You can thank EA for rushing DICE into cutting kick-ass content and not letting them thoroughly test the product, then cutting back on costs by dropping developers.
Dear DICE, please instate a coup de gras and make your publisher be Valve. I would've waited 4 more months for BF2 to come out if it meant it would have all that content from the E3 videos, all that cool shit that was promised, not so many bugs, etc. I had Counter-Strike:Source to hold me over.

Public betas are the best way to test things. How else can you get 1000s of peoples input???
(Even if most of the input i've seen on here is along the lines of "Waah the beta broke my install" or "Waaah i hate the infantry only mode, where's my lovely tank??!")
Do we really have to keep going over this issue? Just play the damn game!
