A few months ago we announced Battlefield 2 Update 1.50 was in development, but so far we have been quiet regarding the content of the update. It is time for us to reveal some of the features the update will contain! The priority for us in this update has been to secure Battlefield 2 against a number of attacks against the game.
We have spent time looking into the attacks and implemented short term solutions with the help of GameSpy to limit the impact of stats padding and leaderboard abuse. Other issues have been found to be game and server based, which is where Update 1.50 comes in. what Battlefield 2 1.50 will contain a number of security updates, including the following:
Server crashing – We have worked with the issues causing servers to crash, which has caused problems for the community (especially those who rent ranked servers).
Name/ID spoofing – Extra steps have been implemented to ensure the soldier being used belongs to the right account.
Commander assets – This is to stop the excessive spawning of multiple crates, UAVs or vehicles.
More information on Update 1.50 will be revealed as we approach the release date!

Nice to see them actually trying to fix the game. But I do not have my hopes up that they will accomplish anything. EA and Dice's track record with patches for Battlefield is they fix a bunch of game glitches and holes but they only open up new ones for the cheat coders to exploit.

All they really have to do is make commander assets different models ( i.e. Cars/boxes ) and limit the max number of boxes/cars ingame to about 2 or 3.

There is a max of cars and boxen is a game, cause that is 4 for supplie boxes for each side(so 8) and 2 cars for each side(total of 4).
However the hack disables that option and lett the user keep dropping them.

Everyone keeps goin about a BF3. I personally don't think it will happen any time soon.
Yes the people at EA/DICE did say they weren't forgetting us PC user's but they never did confirm or acknowledge the existence of a third game. TBH i don't even know where/when they would set a third game.
They've done WW2, They've done modern combat (BF2), They did the future and that turned out to be a flop....
The only thing we BF players have to look forward to atm is this patch, hopefully it will revitalize BF2 gaming a bit.

I want proof that there's actually going to be a BF3 before i believe it.
So far nothing has happened or been confirmed.

TBF: Battlefield was traditionally a PC franchise and a lot of BF Fans really feel left out. Well we be seeing a PC version of Bad Company?
GVD: There’s no plans for Bad Company to go onto PC. For the avid fans they might’ve caught in July I think it was, our Executive Producer Ben Cousins mentioned that there were other projects in the works and that we haven’t forgot about the hardcore PC group. That’s about all I can say.

TBF: I know it might be hard for you to comment, but some members were wondering if Bad Company was being used as a test bed for BF3.
GVD: No, Bad Company is not being used as a test bed for anything. And, there is no BF3, that’s just a rumor. But it’s not a test bed for anything. It was more of picking at the next level for the console area. DICE is a very large studio so when there is one project in the works it doesn’t mean that everything shuts down for the rest of the company. There are different teams working on different projects (Including Heroes, Mirror’s Edge, and so on).
