The day after ATI releases new Catalyst drivers to fix issues with BF2, a new patch comes out that will likely create some new issues. Great. If I actually had the will power to stop playing this game, it wouldn't bother me so much.

Is this fix gonna break more stuff? Seems that the more they patch it the more things break.

The red/blue bug is still there. There is a bug when flying gunner in chopper where TV missles misfire/don't fire after the first two missles. I think it's the same with the AT persons.

I'm getting more TK's now than before even if I wasn't anywhere near the person. I was attributed a TK even though they shot an APC with AT while I was putting C4 on, I died and got the TK for them dying from the APC that they shot even though I didn't get a chance to blow my C4. A friend got a TK from a friendly jet flying into him while he was parachuting. (yes really)

Don't they have testers to catch these things? That is a very short list.

Is it me or did I just fired a rocket at an enemy ariplane and it went straight to my friend's chopper? I have this things happening a bunch of times and people get mad at me for doing it.

I get a lock on the plane, then the planes panics and fires up the flares. then I wait until the flares are gone and I shoot, but then an allie chooper passes by, the rockets follows the enemy then it makes an U-Turn and hits my friend.

That's pretty much all the cases. Also, can people really hack this game? I had this guy shooting me through the walls about 5 times with his punny pistol.
