Battlefield 2 Patching question

Nevakonaza · 19 Nov 2010 at 05:55

Hey all,

Just found out my copy of BF2 thats been sitting under my bed for a very long time and thought id give it ago again.

However i notice there are a lot of patches available now,going from v1.1 all the way up to 1.5.

Do i need to install all the patches from 1.1 all the way up to 1.5 or do i just install the latest 1.5 Patch?

Does the 1.5 patch contain all the fixes/updates in the previus patches? (I assume it does because it been nearly 2GB in size?)?

thanks

Is the 1.5 patch a client then?

Or are you saying install game then 1.5..

install the game,
then install patch v1.5

Patches are released when the developer deems a problem bad enough to warrant fixing,
as new patches are released they are the previous version, just updated,

v1.5 will have everything to bring your retail install up to date

Good old days when you had either Bf2 or COD4 .... Roll on the free to play

Thanks chaps!

But it says i already have a newer version installed? im sure its not V1.5..ive had the game disk for about 2 years

Is it mistaking the patch checkup?...i cant get pass the error though.

I didn't think patch 1.5 was a full patch. Last time I did this I installed the 1.4 full patch followed by the 1.5 incremental patch. Seemed the only way to do it.

That was until, I bought BF2 on Steam to avoid the patching drama of this most excellent epic FPS!
