[Jul 22, 2005, 6:00 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Battlefield 2 Website (thanks Voodoo Extreme) has details on plans for a version 1.03 patch for Battlefield 2, expected around the end of August. Here's an outline of planned changes:

Towards the end of August, we will be releasing a new patch, 1.03. This patch is currently underway and will undergo thorough testing before it goes out to avoid the problems that have occurred in the past. There are over 140 fixes and improvements in this patch. Here are just a few of them:
Server and Client performance improvements.

    • Improved Server Browser - added Favorites and History Lists.

    • Point-farming prevention - game will stop Support/Medic/Engineer point farming exploits.

    • Squads - locked squad leader will get a message if someone wants to join.

    • Many HUD improvements - see the names of others in your vehicle, zoom level changing depending on vehicle, map zoom depending on map setup (16, 32 or 64 player map) etc.

    • Teamkilling changes - the logic of how teamkills are tracked will be changed.

    • Gameplay tweaks - the way transport helicopters work will be tweaked.

    • Additional scoring changes - players who destroy an enemy commander's assets will be given points.

There are many, many more fixes that will be included in the patch but we’re looking forward to everyone moving to 1.03 to get the best BF2 experience out there on a level, cheat-free playing field.
