I guess you missed the "prepares the game for the new maps to come and the new expansion pack"
It adds the content but you cant use it yet. If you have the patch you can see the Vietnam selection on the menu and you can goto it and see the Vietnam menu but you cant use it.
The game engine has been updated also I can tell the text chat box has a different font now and some other things.

They will be included, but they won't work until they're enabled server side.
At least I seem to recall that's the way it worked with previous "new" maps, they were included in the initial release and enabled by a server side update.

Quote: | Each patch gets larger than the previous, because the game drifts ever further away from what was shipped on the DVD. Changes that require shader database updates make the patch balloon in size. And we have to be careful and clever when selecting which file types to include and which to ignore when creating the patch.
And that's where we finally ran into real problems. It was too difficult for one person to identify which changes were required and which were not, and how to update the patch generation process to accommodate the latest set of changes. Most of the delay of Client R8 was because there are very few people at DICE who have the in-depth knowledge of the far-spanning corners of the game engine *and* the cooking tools *and* the patch generation process, to work out what is going wrong, why, and how to fix it.
The new content did work a long while ago - but the patch was back then approximately 7GB large. The patch had to get down to less than 1GB, or else some customers in Australia and South Africa would not be able to download it due to bandwith caps. |
Yup, that's right, changing a few files can create patches of up to 7GBs due to the way the engine was made to suit consoles and the fact they used the updating system from Battlefield Heroes, instead of creating a new one.

Can only be a good thing, think ourselves lucky at least bfbc2 does what it says on the tin, I added the tweaks for the hit detection changes which seem to work nice now, set it to 45 ping and fortunate most the servers i see are around 45-50 anyhow..
Been tough getting back into it though while waiting on black ops fixes, bfbc2 is a lot harder play I find

As discussed this patch adds the content for Vietnam and the map-pack which gets activated tomorrow for the server-side of things, Vietnam as such will cost about 14 USD/$ however.
(EA store has a three day early bonus as well so 15th instead of 18th December.)
Map pack is free though as usual on the PC side.
(Albeit the specific DLC's haven't been released as far as I'm aware, for MoH 2010 the extra content is but instead has a cost added plus based on the description of it on EA store it just activates content already present and doesn't really download or install anything.)

Actually, 18th IS the headstart. Only for EA Store and Steam. Others get it the 21st.

This game can suck my balls...!
Never have I been so frustrated so many times in a multiplayer game as I have with this one, it's one thing if I suck and mess up while playing but around 70% of the time it's just random motherfucking shit that goes wrong in this cocksmoking cumstain of a game.
I am, and shit just doesn't hit the fucking target, doesn't matter if it's far away and I aim above the fucker or if it's up close and personal, it's still just really freaking random.
And dont' get me started on the latency in this motherfucker, I mean come on...it says 30ms before joining the server but while I enter the fucker changes to 110?!?
The most fun I actually have in this game is when I manage to find a server where team-play is awesome and we just do shit as a group, the dumbshit problems still persist such as not hitting where you aim and just randomly getting shot from out of nowhere and dying but yeah, it's still not as frustrating as just having all these fuck-ups.
Even though black ops is an unoptimized 2-dollar-whore it still manages to beat this game when it comes to fun factor...fuck, even MoH2010 is more fun than this even though it's sub-par to this (I know, strange innit!).
Fuck Bad Company 2, fuck it up it's stupid ass...

yeah some weird shit happens in this game. in close quarters there will be a lot of occasions where i kill a guy and i clearly missed him or i shoot the crap out of him (recent case i shot a guy 4 times in the head, sound and all) and he just shoots once and kills me.
knifing doesnt even need a mention, fuck knifing up its ass now (899 dogtags... still, its tough!)

do what i did, set the latency fix for hitbox/ping of server in ur system and game ini file..
works a treat, the game tries alone to compensate for a 100ms ping lag its why the hitbox is shit, if u add some lines to the ini;s to what you get ping wise on refresh of servers mostly, mine is 45ms. Then ive had no trouble since putting someone down at range or not..

Basically, add these two lines;
SettingsManager.floatSet GSDefaultLatencyCompensation 0.0450000
SettingsManager.U32Set GSInterpolationTime 45
to your gamesettings.ini and settings.ini file in the BFBC2 folder.
In gamesettings.ini, add them between the lines;
IntroPlayed=1
[GstPersistence]
In settings.ini, just add it to the end of the list. Save both files.
refresh ur servers see what the avg is mostly its stable here and all them read 45 so 45 is used in both lines above.. change to suit what urs says..

thanks moose, I believe I already tried it before. But problem was, those lines erased each time I played the game from one of the configs (don't remember if settings.ini or gamesettings.ini).
Also read on the forums these two lines work only in BF2 and not BC2 or something.

I had these same issues with cod blops, if I'd play on a server and my ping was 100 then id be getting owned by 60-70 pings, but if my ping is around there them im owning everyone. stupid shit but with bfbc2, i had shitty lag while looking down scopes or on full servers while in dx10 mode, so i had to switch to dx9 but I think the problem is also server lag, something with this game. my browser always shows 999 ping... they need to fix this and from what ive read they dont know wtf to do except release some 20gig patch lol they should just focus on bf3 imo.

Hey man I have a 9800gtx+ SC, E8400@3.0ghz, 2gigs of ram, winxp sp3 and I can run the game on max settings 1280x1024 (my max monitor res) and I will never drop under 60 fps, the bullets not impacting is an issue with hitboxes in the game which they fucking broke even more in the last patch now the hitboxes are worse than before.
Besides that the game runs like shit in win7, I installed it and tried playing BC2 yet my FPS had dropped by 30 frames atleast even on dx9 mode so I reinstalled xp and it works fine again.

no maps unlocked yet,plus something going on with pb as shitloads of people are being banned today,with little information to the cause.
bc2 ea forum about the bans
http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-bad-company-2-pc/1378579-wow-massive-ban-going.html
might be wise not to play bc2 for a while today until people find out if the bans are legitimate or a false positive.
myself i got no intention of playing with no new maps out yet & the chance of a ban for nothing.
