Battlefield 2 Patch Released  by James W at 18:44

PC
Following on from my post yesterday, a patch has been released for Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2: Special Forces. As mentioned before this patch is primarily to make BF2 compatible with the expansion, although there are a few bug fixes included. You can download the patch from all the usual sites. It weighs in at a relatively heafty 280MB. 3DGamers, FileShack, WorthPlaying.

BUG FIXES

- Fixed a crash when users switch weapons using the mouse wheel while piloting a bomber (SU-34, F-15 and J10) in core BF2 maps.
- Removed the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line from kits from "The Iron Gator" map.
- Fixed single player loading screens to match map selection image.
- Fixed an issue in the menus so that users can click on BF2:SF ribbons to view the descriptions.
- Fixed an issue in the Browser so that BF2:SF servers are now represented with a green "2" icon.
- Global improvement of collision detection on the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line.
- Fixed damage state artillery icon on the 3d map when an artillery is destroyed.

I wouldn't install this straight away If I were you, wait until your favourite servers have been upgraded first.

I have to say it lads they small maps are great fun , a real change from the lengthy wars ... when you drop down to the 16 player maps the action is frenzied . Clocking up loads of points is not so easy but gainign medals is :-)
