Expansion of Ranks

Ranks have now been expanded to allow for players to rank up to General

New Feature: Visible UAV

The UAV that is placed by Commanders will now include a visual element. An actual UAV will appear within the UAV detection radius and circle the area. Players will be able to shoot it down, bringing the UAV detection to a premature end. The Commander will be able to continue placing UAVs once the timer resets, as per current design.
 
Guys here having Bf2,it would be better if you downloaded the full 1.2 patch and not the incremental patch as many ppl are having some issues while ppl who downloaded the full patch aren't:cool2: .
Don't be lazy just cause it's 365MB while the incremental patch is 82MB,But if you wan't you can experiment it at your own risk.:no:

P.S.If you did experiment with the incremental patch and something got screwed,don't blame it one me as you'll know tht my secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.:P
 
I'm still d'loading the full patch(it's gonna take some time,as I already have 8 downloads underway) as I ain't taking a risk on the incremental patch but as far as I know ppl are crashing to desktop while starting the game whereas some ppl are not even able to start the game.

Uh,Blade just tell the name of the site frm where you d'loaded the patch as it would be helpful to others and they can d'load the incremental patch frm there and not have any issues where others are facing.

@Ck Nish-Why would I be going after bf2:modern combat on the x360 since I have the pc version and there aren't any planes in modern combat:( which are an important asset for my suicidal tendencies.

K none of those issues so far. I downloaded the patch using bit torrent.

You do realize that a majority of the Xbox's and now the 360's titles will also be available on PC. Or are you telling me the only games you own or ever will own in future will be all exclusives?

Why are'nt we best friends yet?:ohyeah:
 
If modern combat had planes then I would have definitely bought it as I'll say it again "They are an important asset for my suicidal tendencies",It's more of an insult for me just by going all suicidal in a tank or an APC.

The only games tht are gonna interest me on the 360 will be the Halo series and any other sci-fi shooters.
 
Then you will definitely love this game called Blazing angels by Ubisoft that is coming to the PC, XBOX and X360 in march. It's all plane action.:hap2:

Baah, you have no taste. What games do you currently own?:huh:
 
Right now I only have Halo 2,it's multiplayer is the only thing tht is keeping me interested in the x360 now,but thx to professional courier idiots...I now have to wait for cod2 for another week.My next title purchase will be Ghost Recon advanced warfighter.
 
Sounds like you have a long way to go before you have a decent colection. Still, I hope there is some way I can convince you to expand your gaming collection outside FPS'. How much are you paying for X360 games anyway?
 
ROFL!!!..For ppl who think tht EA has fixed the bugs in bf2 with the 1.2patch..well think again,For more information just watch this video...:rofl: :rofl:

The only thing I can say is tht EA is a lot like Valve but only worse:P

@Ck-The games which I buy range frm 2.5k-3k.
