Fight enemies such as:
-Germans
-Trench foot!

Just like WW2 was about more than Normandie and f'ing D-Day, WW1 was about more than the trench warfare on the Western Front. Just like in the later war it is the Eastern front that is the interesting part - trenches were never really dug and the front was constantly shifting.

Bah... you need a good squad

I'll believe it when I see it.

This is will be a rubbish patch, and will be worthless downloading, unless they increase the player size.

BF is nothing without the mods. Yeah, people still play vanilla but I don't see how. I just see BF as an engine for mods to go from. BF1942 wasn't good until Forgotten Hope. Basically, it doesn't matter what setting the next BF takes place in because it will suck anyways, as long as it's a better engine the mods will be better.

So what are they on about the player limit and the system specs. Maybe a slight increase there?

In the context of the article it sounds like theyre just talking about future games, and use bf2s [HUGE] player size[from years ago] as an example of them pushing the envelope.

Meaning, no. 99.999% sure it wont increase for bf2 but their games will continue to "be absolutely amazing and not made of fail and they will push the envelope and add new things but not do them for older games via patches"

One interesting new feature is some boxes have fish inside, so when they explode, fish fly out and move around on the ground. Just when we thought Battlefield 2 couldn’t get any better, now we have moving fish in a box...

OOOWWWWWWW. My brain!!! I hope to god that was a sly tongue in cheek remark because JESUS, if an interviewer is inquiring about a MUCH NEEDED patch and is wooed with ANIMATED FISH IN A F****** BOX, then I have lost all faith in gamers. :\

The map is designed to be intense but still huge, much like Karkand but in a Chinese setting.

huge, much like Karkand

Wut?

Reminds me of that CP Abadan map that used to be in PR, except with Chinese

Actually it looks like Amsterdam with all the canals.

And there's also a 2142 version lolz.

LOL AT THE FISH IN A BARREL! Your are so on the spot about that

[gclark03]

They spent years coming up with that? What are those DICE developers getting paid for?

[Sabre_tooth_tigger]

No one is paying them for this patch, its a bug fix mostly and this is just some small bonus map probably equalavent to our old street map

Apart from crashes and hacks, my main hope would be for widescreen and proper free lock support
