Up yours bf2, up yours!!! j/k


Already close to be on our second patch...talk about quality support

Attention soldiers,

We would like to explain here how committed we are to increasing everyone’s experience with Battlefield, especially regarding the updates for Battlefield 2142. We acknowledge that the patching process could have been smoother for Battlefield 2; we have listened to the feedback and learnt from it.

To accomplish this goal Dice has recently formed a Live Team with the purpose of making sure your playing experience on the Battlefield is as solid as possible after the game is launched. Among other things, the team works closely with the community and handles the patching process, together with the Ranked Server Providers.

Your Dice Live Team is located at the Dice Studio in Stockholm and is made up of key people from the game project teams. This means that the same people who actually built Battlefield 2142 will be responsible for updating it. It has the clear advantage of involving people who are fully knowledgeable about the code and design of the game. The patches will also be thoroughly tested in closed beta tests before being released.

The patches will also be entirely dedicated to correcting bugs and making fixes instead of introducing new gameplay mechanics, thus significantly reducing the risk of introducing new bugs with the patches.

With all this said, we would like to announce patch 1.05 for Battlefield 2142. The patch includes more than 25 fixes which will improve every player’s experience on the Battlefield.

The following fixes will be included, along with many others:

* Titan will no longer be able to move once its shields are down, so that lag within the titan should be significantly reduced and revive inside the titan shouldn’t be a problem any more

* Changes in EA master server communication to greatly reduce disconnects

* Players are now able to receive the Titan Survival Pin

* All players will see the same missile silo location numbers in Titan Mode

Patch 1.05 is scheduled for release later in November so keep watching this space for detailed release information. Also, stay tuned for more information on an upcoming competition allowing you to make your mark in 2142.

See you on the Battlefield!

/Your Dice Live Team

so...

the titan is gonna be a static object when sheilds go down so that the lag will disapear and you can get the wonderful tumbler pin.

Nice, some servers were already banning commanders who moved their titans once shields went down, and still some mofos continued doing it, this should greatly enhance gameplay during titan boarding segments of the game.

I commend Dice for showing such great support for this game, this is good news indeed

Hold on a second...

...the patches will also be entirely dedicated to correcting bugs and making fixes...

...* Players are now able to receive the Titan Survival Pin...

So a new pin is classed as fixing a bug?

 

[Tatty_Two]

Am thinking of getting the game, how does it compare with Battlefield 2 and is it worth the money!

bf2142 > bf2


as for the pin, it was removed because dice couldnt get it working, but with the patch, it will come back.

 

[DaMulta]

Bf2>2142

 

[wazzledoozle]

Bf2>2142

Agreed

 

[Jimmy 2004]

I'm not totally decided yet so:

BF 2142 ≥ BF2!
