Battlefield 2 Patch Plans [April 25, 2006, 12:37 pm ET] - 44 Comments
A new Battlefield 2 Community Update (thanks Frans) has plans for the upcoming version 1.3 patch for the military shooter:

Although the 1.3 patch is still being worked on we wanted to provide a peek at what you can expect with the coming release:

NEW FEATURES

• Co-op: Co-op Mode allows you to play Single Player levels on the Internet and LAN with both AI controlled bots and human players. Several new options have been created that will allow the server creator to modify how the bots behave in game.
• Air dropped vehicles: Squad members can now send a request up the chain of command for a vehicle to be dropped at their location.

BUG FIXES & GAME PLAY TWEAKS

• Prevented ban list from being cleared in the event of a server crash.
• Fixed issue with players not properly ranking up on servers where they continuously play.
• Fixed bug where friendly vehicles show up as valid targets.
• Friendly Vehicle lock: Lock-on weapons do not lock on to friendly vehicles. The box with an X through it will still appear, but a lock tone will not sound and then if fired, the missile will not track the friendly target.

Keep in mind this is only a part of what 1.3 will include. Our live team is working diligently to provide the best update possible in preparation for the release of the Armored Fury booster pack!

spotted on blues news for those that are interested.

holy ! ...cow i like the air liftable vehicles bit

+=TP=+Deadly_Dave(admin)

yeah that sounds gd but everyone will always be asking for them and where will the vehicles come from??

+=TP=+stevie_d_33

more importantly what will they be? you don't want to be dropping a tank in the middle of a gunfight cos that would just be stooopid!

+=TP=+Sire_eriS

the number of tks by commander goes up, tked by a tank dropping on your head,rolf

+=TP=+ Benzoate

Probably a chinook or something taking in the tanks... OR THEY CAN FLY DOWN FROM SPACE WITH A PARACHUTE!!! (or maybe a plane) you could drop tanks onto the enemies heads to kill them Razz

though any survivers would likely take the tank and shoot you. If its a chinook though it could possibly be shot down whilst its on its journey, which would prevent it from being too imballanced. Sounds fun!

lt.roko

might be list of difrent ones, where the comander will drop wat he finds fit, (or feels like) and each time must wait to reload like for arti etc

Dont know if this is official but take a look.

+=TP=+AustinPowers_NL

+=TP=+Sire_eriS

thats a bugger.
oh well time to think of new tactics.

+=TP=+Deadly_Dave(admin)

it will stop ppl joinning your squad just to use as a spawn then leave straight away.

+=TP=+stevie_d_33

We might have a better chance at clan matches if you can't switch squads Laughing

+=TP=+Deadly_Dave(admin)

what clan matches Laughing

+=TP=+stevie_d_33

the one's we play in our heads. So far we've won one and got thrashed for the other 1500. Razz

I have a lot of spare time

+=TP=+Deadly_Dave(admin)

then you can become our match organizer Laughing

1.3 seems to be coming along and more things may change to the awards criteria section as there are several BFtest accounts in use and these are testing new criterias for ranks and medals.

So far it seems for the General rank which needed all expert badges at 180k points and some of them where 400hrs each,they have are lowering it to all veteran badges.
Also the tactical weaponry like grappling and flashbangs deplyment badges are gettin fixed to lower requirements according to one account being tested they may only need 500 deployments each for expert.

I feel this may go ahead due to the fact of BF2142 on the way and they want to keep many interested in BF2.
