I just got done playing around with it, the extra maps look great, the widescreen fix means i can finally say goodbye to XP as widescreen fixer for BF2 was the only reason I kept it, also, not having to keep the disc in to play the game is a big bonus too. I'm yet to try it out on a busy multiplayer map for now.

Argh I don't remember the order in which to install things anymore with BF2 lol

Do I install the base game, then the 1.41 patch, then Special Forces, then 1.41 again then 1.50? Or the base game, then Special Forces, then 1.41 then 1.50?

Patch 1.41 takes a vanilla BF2 installation to 1.41. :p I assume it'll do the same for "Special Forces". Install both, then install patch 1.41.

BF2 > Special Forces > 1.41 > 1.5

if you do 1.41 before special forces, once you install special forces, it'll revert back to 1.11 again. happened to me.

Ah, that's what always confused me! Euro Forces and Armored Fury! You'd install them and have to patch up to the latest version again, now you don't have to cuz it's included in 2.0! Yay.

Thanks guys :)

I just tried to install patch 1.5 and it says I have a newer version. That's odd because I only have patch 1.41. I never installed any of the beta 1.5 patches. I guess I'll have to completely uninstall and reinstall Battlefield 2.

Well after deleting some crap on my C drive to get the required 2.3 gb free space to install the 1.41 patch, guess what? The installer didn't need for C to have the free space after all. I changed my Windows Temp folder to D a few weeks ago, seems the installer used that, but said I needed the free space anyways, so gg dumb installer.

Anyways, omg. The 1.5 patch, installs super fast! They finally learned we don't like waiting an hour for a patch to install YAY! Gonna play in a few minutes :D

Anyone got some links to either to both 1.41 and 1.50

I am struggling to find any work and fast links.

For 1.41, you can try this link. It's from my ISP (portuguese), so it's super fast. Maybe it is also for you.

Concerning 1.5, I'm having the same luck as you. All the links are slllooowwww.....

I gotta say this thread is a testament to my feelings that this is among, if not indeed the best, MP gaming experience ever.

I mean seriously, a game that is over 4 years old, an incredibly long overdue patch finally comes out for, and people are actually still excited about it. Do not get me wrong, I know and have read a lot of people here are indeed reinstalling it, so they are only finding a rejuvenation for the game because of the patch, however again, I just see it as a testament to how damn good this game actually is / was.

How I cannot wait for BF3, although I would be a bold faced liar if I did not say after this whole fiasco with BF 1943 on the PC that I do not have my HUGE doubts, but I really feel no game has ever delivered a total MP FPS experience like the Battlefield series.

And yes, FTR, I know and do acknowledge what a great game COD4 is in regards to MP (along with many others I may point out), but no other game that does both on-foot and vehicular combat together has ever come close to BF2. At least IMHO. Of course UT2k4 is a strong contender, but it was also based on sci-fi, so I just like the overall vibe and feel of BF2 better.

And oh yeah, about to download the patch without a doubt.

I got this game for me and a friend from amazon. Annnnd now I have a few questions. Are the booster packs included in the 1.5 patch? I'm confused about that part. Also what's the co-op mode that is mentioned in the BF2 history trailer? And how is the widescreen support working out?

Also the patch order is BF2 Install > 1.41 > 1.5?
