Crash to Login Screen Bug
Posted: 2008-05-22 02:20
I have not seen any threads in this section on this topic so I thought I would start one so that, even if a solution to this problem is unavailable, people will still be able to come here to get the facts.
I have found recently, as many other players have noticed, that at the end of nearly every game round, and sometimes for no apparent reason during a round, I find myself kicked from a server and dropped back to my PR BF2 Login Screen.
In addition, when I re-login, it is to discover that my Video graphics settings have been reset to medium, and cannot be changed until the entire program is exited and re-started.
This error began occurring for me late last week, without any alteration to my program or settings. I will assume, until otherwise informed, that the error must have something to do with a change in server-side coding. The question is... is this a BF2 coding change, or a PR coding change?
If anyone has more information on this bug, i.e. a fix for it, please let myself and everyone else know. Other information however would also be helpful: What kinds of systems are prone to this bug? Has it happened to you? When did it start? When did it stop, if at all?
