B.Ob. Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Community Update - 7/05/06 "We are beginning the first phase of our 1.4 patch beta testing! This initial phase of testing will only include a small number of servers whose focus is to ensure stability in a live environment. At the completion of this phase we will be rapidly expanding the number of servers hosted to allow everyone an opportunity to review this latest patch."

B.Ob. Posted July 16, 2006 Author Share Posted July 16, 2006 Update for 1.4 Beta: Phase 2 Hello everyone! Based on player feedback and bug reporting we are moving forward with our second 1.4 Beta version. This version has additional bug fixes and the following changes to the “Road to Jalalabad” map and the “No Vehicles” server option. Road to Jalalabad - Tickets adjustements - Removal of 1 US tank to help address balance issues. No Vehicles Option - Added a new Server Browser Filter option for No Vehicles - Return Health to default BF2 level - Return Medic pack and Revive values to Default BF2 - Default spawn times to Default BF2 setting. - No Vehicles is now a ranked server option! We kept: - Keep the current sprint bar setting (I.e. 2x sprint) - Keep the current Vehicle exclusion list (i.e. we are not introducing light jeeps etc, just keeping the boats on Carrier levels). We will be working with the Battlefield server providers to have Phase 2 servers hosted. Client files will be hosted in the same locations as the first 1.4 Beta. Please note that once you download the new 1.4 Beta you must: - Delete your previous 1.4 Beta folders - Follow these steps to back up your 1.3 install > Go to “C:\Program Files\EA GAMES” > Right click the “Battlefield 2” folder and choose “Copy” > Right click anywhere away from this folder and choose “Paste” > Once the copy has completed, you will have two folders named “Battlefield 2” and “Copy of Battlefield 2” > Install the patch 1.4 beta, then start the game as normal When you wish to switch back to the release version of BF2, use the following steps: - Go to “C:\Program Files\EA GAMES” - Right click the “Battlefield 2” folder and choose “Rename” - Rename the folder to something like “Battlefield 2 Beta” - Right click the “Copy of Battlefield 2” folder - Rename the folder the “Battlefield 2” - Start the game as normal. Please make sure to take the proper steps to safeguard your 1.3 BF2 install and join us in making this the best patch possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 "The Battlefield 1.4 patch files that were scheduled for general release today have been resubmitted for another review and as such will not be released today. I am aware that many of you already have these files and we ask that you please do not release these files until we send a update." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 Community Update - 8/15/06 Greetings Everyone, As many of you are now aware we have made the choice to take some extra time with the 1.4 patch before release. During our standard final processing of the 1.4 client update we came across an issue that, although it does not compromise stability, we felt needed to be addressed in order to meet our goal of improving the overall player experience with Battlefield 2. It has come to our attention that a beta version of the 1.4 client has leaked to the general public. It should be noted by players that this file is not final and being such could cause damage to players systems. We want to warn players to avoid the use of any client files that are not distributed by EA/DICE or one of our trusted partners. Once we have set a new schedule for release we will communicate this information to everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
