From one of the posts:
Very nice!!I hope you fixed these Crash to Desktop hacks and made the commander assets serverside controlled to prevent it being hacked after few months.
Yep we have
afaik PR uses some of the commander assets in BF2 to do certain different things in PR, so there could definitely be a problem there.

Hopefully it wont be to hard to fix, if there is a problem, and overall, the patch looks like it has some cool changes.

It certainly sounds good. But if it breaks PR, I may hold out just a little longer before installing. :)

Better Vista support is always a plus! Good to see Dice is moving ahead into the future. :D

nothing for PR, IMO.

What are they talking about - Vista, widescreen support, no DVD? Pff.... what year is it, 2007?
How about 128players, sff... PR crew even made autoloader for 0.9 (check youtube on "PR 0.9 autoloader").

Vista support? Is there actually any issue in between vista and BF2? (never noticed anything)

They said a page or so in the post on the forums that widescreen support would not be in the beta, but would not be ruled out for the final release, and with the amount of people who have made a fuss I'm guessing they will try. Hopefully people will finally be a bit satisfied now that they've got a release date to mindlessly follow.

What took them YEARS to do this? It's great news, but inexcusably late.

I do not believe in BF2 Patches ;)
They said cristmas and now we have *öhm* summer.
If they continue developing with this 'enormous' speed maybe we can play BF1.5 before the release of Duke Nukem.

Hackers crashing full servers to desktop cant do that anymore after the patch, it concerns you too sir, be happy that they finally fix that.

Heh come to think of it, I've had the same CD in there for pretty much 99% of the time these last years...
I wonder if I'll be able to separate both plastics when I'll try to take it out ;)

game developers usually start with choosing a hitbox style from somwhere else, rather than go through the irritating process of building their own hitbox code.

changing this code further than what it currently is, could have adverse effects. and allthough im sure they have done much testing on it, i cant help but remind myself of the old saying. "dont mess with a good thing."

about widescreen, it already works well ;-)
Yeah, I actually prefer the large fonts while playing at 1680x1050. If they added additional resolution support, the fonts would shrink and might be unreadable.

"- Tweaked the hit detection, hits will be more accurate to the model."

This was the only line that made me interested in the patch. Hopefully they will make the game more accessible to modders.
