I just cant get a lot of knife kills in a round, im sure ppl a cheating and using machetes while i have a pen kinfe ;) Seriously though some pll can knife me from 5 yards away and i can be laying ontop of my intended victim hit him 3 times with the knife and he still wont die :(

Best way to do it is to get about a foot away from the stabee and you'll hit almost every time. The knife hit detection is shoddy so if you're practically humping the victim you won't get anywhere.

I need to get my ass on a titan server and get my silver knife badge, conquest is crap for knifage.

Anyone else expriences problems this weekend?

Every single time I try to get into a game it takes out my internet, for everyone on the network.

The server listing gets to about 40 also before it totally locks up.

Everything else is running fine here, plus I've opened up all the ports they bitch about in the manual.

Honestly, getting more and more frustrated with this. Was the same for BFMEII. I thought that was a great game but getting online half the time was a laugh.

I had that problem with the demo, it stopped when I switched VoIP off and set the internet connection from T1 to '256k or more'.
Haven't had the problem with the retail version, but you never know.
 
I have to say I have had it up to here with the disconnect problem.

You'll be playing a good game and *poof* you're disconnected due to the server or the EA master server... absolute ****** shames of a game.

It's like the issue with the patching on BF2 that ment that a game I'd bought isn't playable for half it's life time. In effect it's a form of fraud.

We all have the same problems mate, nothing we can do about it really. Just enjoy what you can of it.
 
Quick question is it my bad memory or is the a 50 man 50 klicks conquest server? I had a great time on the 50k titan server but wouldn't mind a game of conquest on a decent server.
 
This is realy anoying me now as i am ranking up fast but i can use my unlocks? Is this the same for every one? Or can some people use thier unlocks...Its realy anoying me now......part of the love of this game is the stats? But i cant see my stats! any news from EA?
 
I wish this game had no bugs in it as i really do like it when it does'nt have the bug's stressing me out.

I just got kicked from a server for teamkilling to many times and did not mean to do any of them its just the stupidness of the game and the idiots always punishing.

First kill was someone running under tank
Second was blowing up own teams tank after i was repairing as i accidently clicked fire
Third was snipering own team mate as the stupid name comes up after i shoot.


I really do like it when things go right but it just annoy's me so much when things go wrong.

tonight i have had the following happen

Lost Connection to server x 2.
Lost connection with server but it crashed game and messed up my modem/router so had to restart them.
must have connected to servers x 4 if not more with no unlocks when others did

Where would i stand if i tried to get my money back for the game as i bought from a big retailer for £18.99, i know you unlikely to get money back for PC games but when the game is riddled with bugs surely the consumer has some rights ?
 
Update from DICE.

Attention soldiers,

We would like to explain here how committed we are to increasing everyone's experience with Battlefield, especially regarding the updates for Battlefield 2142. We acknowledge that the patching process could have been smoother for Battlefield 2; we have listened to the feedback and learned from it.

To accomplish this goal Dice has recently formed a Live Team with the purpose of making sure your playing experience on the Battlefield is as solid as possible after the game is launched. Among other things, the team works closely with the community and handles the patching process, together with the Ranked Server Providers.

Your Dice Live Team is located at the Dice Studio in Stockholm and is made up of key people from the game project teams. This means that the same people who actually built Battlefield 2142 will be responsible for updating it. It has the clear advantage of involving people who are fully knowledgeable about the code and design of the game. The patches will also be thoroughly tested in closed beta tests before being released.

The patches will also be entirely dedicated to correcting bugs and making fixes instead of introducing new gameplay mechanics, thus significantly reducing the risk of introducing new bugs with the patches.

With all this said, we would like to announce patch 1.05 for Battlefield 2142. The patch includes more than 25 fixes which will improve every player's experience on the Battlefield.

The following fixes will be included, along with many others:

* Titan will no longer be able to move once its shields are down, so that lag within the titan should be significantly reduced and being revived inside the titan shouldn't be a problem any more

* Changes in EA master server communication to greatly reduce disconnects

* Players are now able to receive the Titan Survival Pin

* All players will see the same missile silo location numbers in Titan Mode

Patch 1.05 is scheduled for release later in November so keep watching this space for detailed release information. Also, stay tuned for more information on an upcoming competition allowing you to make your mark in 2142.

See you on the Battlefield!

Yup the titan lag really does my head in, i don't know why the commanders have to move them in the first place, just playing not 20 mins ago the lag was so bad i couldn't navagate round the titan came off and gave up in the end.

Am not sure the titan move thing will help surely they will just move them when the game starts or can't they ?

Was playing a titan map tonight and decided to become a commander, i didnt move my titan 1 inch and the game was pretty lag free, i really dont understand the commander who do move the titan closer to the enemies one, what does it achieve? Yes you can use the pods to land on their titan but then so can they, yes your closer so the crews in the transports dont have far to go but same for them, its not as if the titans can attack each other and the amount of lag it creates makes attacking the other titan real bad. So my question is y do it??????????????

Edit: Jabbs its a good thing cause when ** inside the titan and it moves everything inside moves as well bodies of team mates go into walls so you cant revive them and sentry drones move as well
