Thanks :)

Looks like MPuk should be applying the patch post 4pm BST today - hopefully in time for tonights game (9pm BST).

Hopefully the patch will hit various download sites at 4pm too :)

Wake Island is included with this, and we will be enabling that map as soon as humanly possible! :D

DrEvil 04 October 2005 01:51 PM

Right, looks like our server has been patched - although MPUK haven't finished testing yet. new map Wake Island 2007 is on there for selection, but we won't enable it tonight if the client side patch is over 100Mb. I'll update the server message (on the BF2 splash screen) as and when Wake Island is enabled.

Patch should be available from EA and mirror sites from 3-4pm BST ish... I hate having to work until post 6pm this week! :( dagnamit

ChristianR 04 October 2005 02:33 PM

Patch will be 175mb

DrEvil 04 October 2005 02:43 PM

Well, if thats the case, we will run without Wake Island tonight, so people don't have to try to get this downloaded first - as all the download sites will be hammered anyhow.

So, tonight you shouldn't need patch1.03, but from tomorrow morning onwards our server will be running the Wake Island map, so 1.03 will be mandatory.

ChristianR 04 October 2005 06:37 PM

patch is out : http://www.eagames.com/official/batt...downloads.jsp#

TopBanana 04 October 2005 08:24 PM

Anyone come across a torrent for the patch?

King RA 04 October 2005 09:00 PM

King RA 04 October 2005 09:04 PM

G00ner 04 October 2005 10:50 PM

King RA 04 October 2005 11:24 PM

Good game everyone!! :D

DrEvil 04 October 2005 11:55 PM

King_RA - good to see you tonight :)

Topbanana - sorry chap, had to call it a night now.

We had a full server earlier - good news is, SNAFU_UK will be a 40 player server soon, although this may mean an IP change (TBC - I'll post as soon as I know).

DrEvil 06 October 2005 10:00 AM

TopBanana - saw that you got me last night a few times... Seems the server is getting more popular... just as well its being upgraded to 40 player slots / 64 plyr maps!

Believe me, luck more than judgement ;)

DrEvil 06 October 2005 04:12 PM

Just to confirm our server is now 40 player, utilising 64 player maps and ranked :D

Most of us will be on from 9pm tonight. :)

stevencotton 06 October 2005 04:33 PM

I have some friends from NZ over tonight so I won't make it unfortunately. May well be on Sunday night though :)

DrEvil 06 October 2005 04:43 PM

OK chap, hope to see you then. :) Although I'm working Sunday, so not sure what time I'll be home for fun n games.

SPelham 06 October 2005 06:18 PM

Hi Guys, looking forward to playing for the first time on your server tonight.. Thats if the missus doesn't give me to much grief ;)

My AKA is ScoobyZEN !

DrEvil 07 October 2005 10:20 AM

SPelham - hi chap, noticed you on, hope you had fun, didn't see this beforehand or I'd of said HI! :D

Was good last night, although I was on the loosing side..

We're getting the clan site up, it will be mentioned on the server splash screen soon :)

TopBanana 07 October 2005 11:16 AM

Couldn't get on last night - server was full :(

sammyh 07 October 2005 11:30 AM

Mind if I join in one of the next games? Tag's Darthsammy (i'm not very good at making names up :D)

DrEvil 07 October 2005 12:34 PM

All are welcome - we're recruiting for the clan too - pm me if interested?

G00ner 07 October 2005 02:26 PM

Finally found the server last night and played for an hour or so (G00n3r), got my arse whooped as usual. :rolleyes:

Couple of questions,

Does the engy always fix a vehicle if he's a passenger? does it matter if he's using one of the onboard guns, can he fire and fix at same time?

Yesterday on the upper corner mini map there was like a red flashing zone, is that your squad leader telling you to attack that area?

ta, in advance. :)

DrEvil 07 October 2005 02:49 PM

Cool - I do remember seeing you for a while, along with a few others :)
Was a fun game last night - couple really really good players on.

Not sure how the engineer works now under patch 1.03, certainly used to be that way, ie if you had an engineer as a passenger he would auto-fix your vehicle.

The red flashing zone signifies an artilery strike usually issued by your commander - avoid that area! You don't get a warning for enemy ones.

TopBanana 07 October 2005 03:30 PM

I read up a bit on engineers last night. They can fix their own vehicle as a passenger, or another vehicle as the driver. It's worth having two tanks together both being driven by engineers as you fix each other as you go along. Cool

DrEvil 12 October 2005 09:26 AM

Sorry if people had problems getting on last night although 10 slots appeared to be free.

We were trialing the reserved slot feature, needless to say it doesn't work as expected and is disabled now. So 40 public slots available now.

Apologises for that, Alex
