question: EA patch

Conman51=US= · 08-15-2008, 03:05 AM

iirc i rember people say after ea usually releases patches it causes problems w/ pr so a pr patch needs to be made to fix what EA messed up. but if lets say the devs release .8 b4 EA realeases the new patch (which looks reasonable the way EA works) how long would it take the devs to fix the ea patch???

too long.

my advice, dont waste ur time getting the update for BF2 until the devs allow PR to play over it.

it depends on the amount of bugs it casues. there has been patches where there has been no bugs caused or nothing has needed to be changed (but they are normally from when EA mess so much stuff up in the first patch they need to release anouther patch after, to patch the patch

)

so best thing to do if you want to play PR only, not to patch till we have said its ok and/or released a update to fix the bugs caused by the patch.

I think EA dice is making a final patch that fixes everything with no side effects. Or am i just dreaming now...

Oh and will PR .8 be release before the patch is out or after?

well i dont think there is a release date yet for the BF2 patch so i doubt the devs would wait for that before they release.8

Okay, good, we're not waiting for that stupid patch then, yay! Good to hear the devs are not waiting for the patch to release, like other mods :/ As i dont see that patch being released anytime soon... Maybe it was just a joke and in a year EA come and tell us that they were just kidding and give us an extra map instead, they call it "Wake Karkand 1.5", looks like Karkand, with the US having jets, bombers and helicopters and the MEC having 24 bases in the city on a map size of 512² or so...

EA is bringing out a patch o.O ? Its like a nightmare when are they finally going to leave us alone >.< ?

Actually, this patch should be worth getting - integrated Widescreen support, for example.

No-one should be expecting 128-player servers or anything like that, but it's almost certainly not going to effect PR's gameplay other than the initial "break" of the mod and and it might even bring one or two things useful. We can but wait and see...
