Deadly Tools: Without dying, get a kill with a Carbine, Pistol and Rocket Launcher – 30G

Show of Force: Get 10 kills with all ten CQ weapons – 30G

Man of Calibre: Complete a round of Gun Master – 20G

Secret Achievement - 20G

Way easier than the B2K ones!

For anyone wanting this patch faster then you should use the Privoxy method, reduced download time from 55 minutes to (currently) 12 mins

servers not going to updated for about 2+ hours according to their battlelog maintenance schedule

also noticed on the server browser that they replaced "EA servers" with "premium servers" in the filter. hope that doesn't mean that EA servers are going to become accessable for premium members only

The server browser should have been updated BEFORE patch.

Unless they're all getting the patches at the same time (impossible) no they shouldn't. Our PS3 problems don't effect the X-box/PC players currently until they get the patch.

Patching, will put a round in to see the controls and colorblind option but I'm not back yet. DSL is still fucked. :/

What is this? It looks like a PC thing from a quick search.

I was wondering about that... but decided to be passive aggressive instead of actually calling him out, since that generally backfires and I look like a stupid asshole.

But I was wondering after you guys posted...

So the reason they havent updated servers is becaus the patch comes out at different times in different countries?
Also anyone know how servers will switch from CQ/Rush and then into a conquest domination game, as conquest domination is only 16 players...? Wil they kick 8 players? Or will the server always only be 16 players?

2,38GIG? WTF DICE!

They can just as well put the full download of the fixed game on there instead of "patches" like this. Embarrassing.

Colorblind options is near the anti-aliasing options.

Premium is FUCK HUGE in the menu. WHY?

Frostbite has always required large patches and they will get larger as more patches come out. Just the way they built the engine.

That's pretty terrible. I don't understand how they could create a new engine without taking these things into consideration.
It doesn't really affect me personally since I just got a new 320GB HDD to put into my PAL system so I could put the 250 one in my newly bought JP system, but still.

Considering most of these adjustments are relatively small and mostly based on balancing, it boggles the mind how it adds up to these kinds of numbers.

How many of those were already on the disc? Other than Harvest Day, Oasis and some other conquest map, all of them. Are Close Quarters maps apart of this new patch?

It is terrible. I thought with FB 2.0 they would have made this less of an issue.

It may be with this premium thing...


2 weeks early could mean they were incorporated into the patch

I see the maps in the server browser too

Thats the size of the new patch? If so, I simply dont have the hard drive space for it, damn. Its gonna be expensive between getting the new content and probably a new harddrive.....not sure I can afford to do that just to keep playing this game. Crap.

DICE.... thank you.

edit: real test will be live multiplayer, but it feels more like BC2 in co-op (but I can't recall if it always has -- haven't played co-op in ages)

Premium won't come until tomorrow. Probably the same with the servers. PSN store updates on Tuesdays. This isn't Tuesday, dude.
