So now it's here, what do you think?

Begin able to see the UAV is odd, it seems a bit low to m though, it won't matter to gameplay much tho.

n00btube is much better though, so far so good anyway.

Im sick of the new sniper rifle already, but its new so i guess every ones using it.

Not been able to jump is the major issue, i'm a drop and fire guy but some times you need to jump esp if you have a pistol/shotgun.

I'll hold of o n the "I keep geting killed" comment coz i may just be having a bad day.

I aggree wit hthe noobtube comment, I got tubed 3 time and i was all from a distance.

some of the moded guns are to good now.

I'm just negative because its new, in a week or so i will have addapted and like it.

really need to buy this game..

n00btits? nice nickname for a gun there... that a bazooka or something?

You'd only suck at it though ;-)

oh there again with the humor craig!

one thing i dont miss about cod1 late nights.... the ****ing nades... how many times i throw grenades and found out it ****ing bounced a wall or something and landed next to me

never got used to them lol

So how long do you think it'll take for them to release a new patch to undo this shit.

All the maps are so boring now.. as US you won't even get off the boat thanks to the stupid AA they've introduced that will follow you 360 and then take you down in 1 hit.

Blackhawks go down in like 3 bullets from a plane to the cockpit so you can't get to shore on those, planes last about 5 seconds when bombing a base, boats are useless 'cause you get raped by the enemy planes once they've blown up the essex.

Out of 3 maps as China not once did the US get on land for more than 2 minutes to make the game any fun.

It's either stupidly easy being in a plane or impossible if everyone sits in the AA (which they do now as it's the easiest way to get points)Out of 2 maps the top players were all people that had been sat in AA the whole game.

The only good things that I can see are the Grenade launcher being fixed, and the 2 new weapons (the sniper rifle owns)

The AA is just pathetic now, and unless they patch it I can see lots of complaints on forums.. it was fine before the patch, they just needed to make it lock better.. now it locks in half a second and you're dead before you can flare, and if you're lucky enough to flare then the next missile just tracks you around the map like it's taped to the back of the plane.

And before you say stuff about plane whores... if you can shoot down people that easy that have been playing since battlefield 1942, think about how stupid it's gonna be for people that just join the game.

Most of the time all the choppers and planes were just left on the runway in the maps I played, no-one even bothered getting in them.

Nearly every time a plane did take off from the base it was back again 10 seconds later completely on fire. It's not skill to just jump in the AA and let off 2 missiles then jump out and run away to shoot something else.

sitting in something and clicking the mouse to get a possible 6 kills (blackhawk) that easily should not be in an FPS game.

I'd rather they had left the grenade launcher lameness in, at least that was avoidable.

Also, what's with killing off people that use a 9700 graphics card, now you can't play on that card.. good way to piss of a load of people that could run the game in low detail. Now it just won't run at all.

Choppers are a bit easy to kill i agree, but Planes arent, People were dodging my AA quite well today, just doing really sharp turns to avoid missle. and no it didnt follow it once it missed (it went into a team vehicle most of the time yay!)

Yer I sat in AA for over an hour last night, and tbh it misses thr enemy lots and always hits team aircraft instead.

Which is still crap yes

it's shit, like I said.. you can avoid one missile, the next just hits you.. then you gotta fly over the runway 5 times to repair again.

i'm going back to DC for my plane fix.

Grant the game runs fine on my ATI9700 pro, at medium settings....


you sure you werent refering to the 9200 cards?...

i agrea that aircraft are now too easy to shoot down, but the majority of the fixes were much needed (the SA80) is much closer to the real thing now

i like the new sniper rifle, havent used the p90 yet...

ive already seen several posts on Totalbf2 with people moaning about aircraft being too easy to kill, so hopefully EA and Dice will realise that they made the wrong changes to the jets, (they should have made it easier for Air-Air, but kept it the same for Sur-Air missiles)

it was fine as it was, it just needed to be so that AA locked quicker instead of taking 4 seconds.. that's why people can never hit stuff, because by the time it's locked they've already been bombed.

They need to change it, it's stupid. The new guns do own, and so do all the other changes I agree. They just went overboard with the AA stuff and ruined it.

They should have just done what I always said and kept the AA kit for infantry like in DC and made it so it shot in a straight line.. where you aimed you hit.. then it took skill to shoot stuff down, you could still dodge things. People could have AA cover wherever they needed it / wanted it.

They should have learnt from the locking AA in BF:Vietnam and how bad it was.

they didnt learn, and i agree they changed the wrong things, they should have changed lock speed not made the missiles super manouverable

im glad tbh - I couldnt give amonkeys if its easier to shoot down ppl who never seem to have step foot on the battlefield - ppl who have expert everything from whoring planes in every kit. At least now plp wont be in such a hurry to Tk for vechiles knowin they will get nailed..

The only ppl who will moan is ppl who are happy jusy bombing teh sh!t out of the enemy and afterburning away - even with tks they get so many team points it makes no difference

people still TK, I got tk'd 3 times for the plane.

Like I said in IRC, the points / ranks / badges mean jack shit now. It's been changed so many times with the required points to gain a rank that no-one can even tell how many it has taken certain people to reach their rank.

Unless you look at a site you'll have no idea whether a silver star is higher than a gold bar. It's all pointless and means nothing other than the fact you can be commander...

fact is, a major half of the game has been ****ed up and many many people are complaining about it.

At the current state they might as well just remove all air vehicles and make it into CS with tanks. If they put homing missiles as well as HJ-8's that locked onto tanks they'd be hundreds of complaints. It's no difference between whoring in armour and in the air.

Like all the posts say on Totalbf2, most people that complained about AA in the first place had no clue how to hit anything in it. It was easy.. now it's just stupid.

It wasn't easy at all, it needed to be changed.

Though quite frankly I thought the AA was better when the game was at 1.0 retail (the first patches ruined it). All they should have done was to make it lock quicker as you said as well as lower plane armour a lot. 1 AA hit should pretty much kill a plane imho.

Thing is, when AA loses a lock on the nme, it goes after friendlies and NEVER misses and that's a big issue for me, it's just insane.

yep, it's just as lame when using the AA as it always hits something. I don't care what anyone says, if you get 2 fired at you in this patch it will ALWAYS hit with 1 of them if you can dodge the other. Hence you always die.

If you don't have flares you have your work cut out to dodge the first one too. It shouldn't be that unbalanced considering the amount of AA on maps.

I read there was take of a shoulder mounter AA, that will be fun

There was before they released it. Shoulder mounted ones were in DC like I said. That was far more fun

especially if you stingered a sniper
