DICE, if you are going to make any changes to the game besides bug fixes make changes based on what the COMMUNITY want.  WE DON'T WANT CHANGES BASED ON WHAT YOU WANT!! WHY? BECAUSE WE DIDN'T ASK FOR THEM!!!!

yes sure.... the socalled "community" (whiners, bitches and morons) wanted stronger AA, weaker helos, sniper PKMs, useless nadelaunchers and all the other BS we talked about in 2351123451235 topics!

and what did EA do? they made what the "community" wanted!

personally i dont want any changes in BF leave it like it is now! changeing my playingstyle over and over again sucks! better give us some more weapons and maps!!!

end!

Ok so first off, don't nerf anything.  Jets, armor, choppers, aa, guns, leave it all the fuck alone as far as damage goes.  I did have a wierd-ass bug the other day though...swithced to single shot, then couldn't switch back to burst.  Anyway, that's another topic.  All the guns have pro's and con's and they can all be extremely effective in the hands of the right player.  Jets are good enough, and lets face it...the only jets that really need anything would be the J-10 to get toned down and the the F-35 should be redesigned to be a fighter (versus the transport that I consider it to be now.)  But as we all know if the design team for the patch even LOOKS at the jets the only changes will be the J-10 will be able to do inverted hairpin turns while barrel rolling, and the F-35 will be able to turn tight enough to almost stay in bounds on a map.  The AA is definately better now than it has been in the past but it's still beatable if you know where the AA posts are.  If you don't know where they're posted than maybe you shouldn't be flying yet.  That goes for jets and choppers.

I agree that the missle through the target thing is a huge pain in the ass, but I don't know if I'd call it a bug.  I'm more inclined to think that is a ping/lag issue and I don't think the patches can really do anything about that.  I haven't seen any significant bugs in 1.4 besides the knife bug.  Maybe I'm just stabbing people wrong, but the other day I stabbed a guy twice (he was prone, I went prone next to him, stabbed twice and got the smoke/dust twice that usually indicates a positive hit) and he got up and ran away...I ended up shooting him in the back while someone else was shooting from the front.  I got a damn "Kill Damage Assist" and the other guy got the kill.  So if they can fix the knife bug that would be my vote for sure, otherwise, as a squad member I'd like to be able to effectivly request assets from the commander.

Edit:  Oh yeah, and more maps are always welcome.  I prefer to fly jets/choppers, so I would prefer something other than a city map...but I fear I am among the minority on that one.  Regardless, new maps are like christmas presents...always exciting to open it up and see how it could have been made better.

Fix voting for kick. It's uselss as it's now. It should take about five votes ,not twenty five....
One city map for PLA vs. USMC would also be nice.
Thank you.

Fix the menu thing, update server list. It doesn't work. It should work as before, when you could click a server and it updated and also fix the thing that makes your fav. servers disappear when clicking update. It sucks. Other things, perhaps fix so you don't have to "reload" the shock paddles two times when it's been out of power. Personally I don't like the thing that you can't shot when jumping and the that your blocked from fireing when you go to prone. My thoughts.

Hmm, how bout the f-35's turning radius and the inability of the f-35's missles to hit the j-10.  I throw all 6 missles point blank at the j-10 and no hit, when I get smacked my 2 missles instantly by it.  WTF?

-Fix the f-35 and J-10 imbalance once and for all. The F-35 needs a smaller hitbox and better tracking AA missiles

-I heard the USS Essex has the AA missiles used by airplanes rather than the more accurate IGLA/Stinger. The Essex should get the missiles used by the IGLA/Stinger if this is true.

-Any stats regarding transports gotten in the Euro Force booster pack do not get recorded to your stats. If I get 10 minutes in a Transport, that doesn't save to my stats. This happens on ranked servers. Apparently people aren't even able to get their veteran transports on it. Very silly bug that shouldn't be there.

-Make G36E either less accurate, have lots of recoil, or be less damaging.

-Fix the bug where you think you fired a TV missile, as in you hear the sound and whatnot, but a missile doesnt actually fire

-Fix the bug where you fire a TV missile, switch to guns, then switch to the TV missile and it reloads again, as if it had never reloaded

-Add a stinger at the back of the TV Station on Sharqi

-Fix the netcode. Hit registration is horrific at times. TV missiles going straight thru choppers. Bullets not registering. KNIFE SWIPES showing dust but no kill.

It's part of the regular game play.  No special sequence of buttons, no exploitation, just normal gameplay.  Either learn to use it or continue to die from it.  It absolutely does NOT need to be nerfed!  Perfect example of someone whining about something because they can't do it.

[sarcasm]Well, I don't think anyone should be able to run anymore because targets are easier to hit when they move slower.[/sarcasm]


PS, I think the [sarcasm][/sarcasm] should really be added as BBCode.  I don't know what the result of that code should be, but it should be in there anyway.

You are so wrong that you are SELF OWNED.  Watch this video and see what happens when this guy rolls.  He actually moves a few feet to the side as it should be.  But this was the pre days of BF2.

It makes me to see so much stuff missing out this game that was promoted in the vid.

Don't get me wrong, I am not suggesting that we ignore minor problems with the game.  What I am angling for is that some improvements also be allowed to surface after a year!

I think it will be a small bug fix patch, if they planned on big things like new maps, they would call it patch 1.5. A patch called 1.41 will be mainly bug fixes and minor adjustments, dont expect anything major.

bug fixes

Is that all, you out of steam that fast? Sheesh

Armour badge...agreed. Maybe it should be a lil more than the heli/aviator medals since armour appears in every map in the game...choppers and jets dont. Make it at 75 for vet and 175-200 for expert. Although I do agree that it would make sense to have it the same as the others.

We dont want anything new, nothing changed - just fixes. Oh, except for new maps. At least 1 new map per game (vanilla/SF/EF/AF). SF really needs an additional map for Seals, Rebels and Insurgents. That might help to revitalise the game a lil bit for the more seasoned players.

Give The F-35B a better fighting chance in air would be nice and make it possible not to statpad i guess that is about it
