Trying to keep this thread for only what is known "FACT" not guessed for:
- The ranks
- unlocks (When you get them only not type)
- Badges

please avoid postings such as...

"wow that map is cool"
"Thanks for the info"
"Your the man"
"The g36e is blah blah blah g36k g36 burst auto autohead shot crap"
"How does it sound... helicpter this that the other"

a decent thread on totalbf2 turned into 17 pages of wow cool.

Only facts we know for certain: (Taken from memory of 17-pages of Tbf2, guy has the game and posted pics etc..."

What do you know for certain or with good knowledge?

1. The patch is out for both the server and the client.
2. Install the patch after you buy or if your not going to buy.
3. There is the odd bf2:SF server, somehow japan got it first.
4. There is a server patch
5. There are new badges and ranks as well as unlocks.
6. Assult and AT get grappling hooks, SF and Sniper get zip lines,
7. There are gas masks keyed to 7 (your going to need it)
8. Almost every class gets something extra, flash bang, tear gas, hooks, zipline, etc...
9. There are new helicopters and no planes in the new maps...
10. One is a total inside carrier map
11. Nightvision goggles seem to work simliar to sprinting can't spint all the time right...
12. Looks like some of the lower model video cards won't play as well (hear say only)

Unfortunately, I have an etimated 2 hour and 19 minute download to get before I can get on a ranked server (and possibly get a promotion of some kind) but I can tell you what I do know.  I installed and logged on to my existing account (a Seargent Major account with all weapons unlocked).  I got no prompting for any unlocks after logging in like you do when you get a promotion in standard BF2.  I browsed through the list of unlocks and there seemed to be 2 missing from the 2.  Here are the one's listed:

Sniper: Nothing
Anti-Tank: Nothing
Assault: Flash bang
Engineer: MP7
Medic: G36E
Special Forces: SCAR-L
Support: MG36

The only other thing I saw was the medals and badges menu had a selection for BF2 and Special Forces.  When you click special forces you get a screen with 6 new medals and 10 new badges all grayed out.  Clicking gives you no description of what the medals are called or what they mean.

That's all I have until I get the 280 Meg update.  Perhaps I'll have more news in *checks the download* 2 hours and 20 minutes (the download seems to have slowed down).  Peace!

added items for each class:

sniper: zipline
spec ops: zipline
assault: grappling hook, flash bang
medic: n/a
engineer: n/a
support: tear gas
anti-tank: grappling hook

other stuff:
- 8 key for gas mask, 7 key for night vision goggles
- the grenade launcher seems to have been phased out of the assault class in favor of hand grenades, except for the SAS team who still has the trusty g/l
-engineers for the SAS get the MP7 which is a good smg
-it seems for me that the M249 SAW for the Seals is now a lot more accurate (could be wrong)
-SAS support class has light machine gun version of the very good G36, called the M636 (it's essentially the G36c from BF2 with a 5 times larger clip)
-flashbangs are particularly effective on people wearing night vision goggles making it impossible to see for about 5 seconds
-smoke from the tear gas makes it impossible to see for about 10 seconds
-sometimes even with night vision goggles, the enemies can blend very well into the shadows on night levels (especially on Devil's Perch!)

this is just some stuff i noticed while playing singleplayer (i'm downloading the new patch as we speak)
