Recommended Posts

I think 1.4 will be last patch for BF2, they are tieing up the loose ends making it somewhat shipshape before DICE Canada jump ship to 2142 beta testing.

 

BF1942 went to 1.6

BFV went to 1.2 (what a joke)

BF2 will prob go to 1.4

 

The fix list more or less demonstrates this, although the BH guns remain as pea shooters.

 

1.4 Patch - New content

 

· New level: Road to Jalalabaad (Conquest 16-32-64, Singleplayer, Co-op)

· New Server Option: No Vehicles mode
