Official Bad Company 2 Known Problems List

Post by trog @ 01:40pm 23/03/10 | 14 Comments

Dice have a new forum post which lists all the issues with Bad Company 2 that they're currently aware of and tracking (and, hopefully, fixing). Today's update has corrected a couple of smaller issues, but there are still a bunch of problems plaguing the game.

If you're experiencing problems make sure you head over and check out the list to see if your issue is on there - if it's not, it's probably worth dropping a note in their forums to let them know what's going on.

There are alot of things on that list that they are saying probably wont fix, I wonder if that means they will never fix or just not going to fix in the near future.

I noticed it has nothing in there about compatibility conflicts with certain hardware and OS on the PC version... very disappointing i cant even play this game on my high-end gaming box (30 fps max on low @ 1024x768) yet its fine on my mid-low range laptop (45 fps minimum on medium 1366x768).

Since every other game is fine Cod MW2 i can max out, even ARMA2 and Crysis runs much better, its obvious to me this game has serious compatibility issues... looks like ill leave the PC version well alone and return to the PS3 version.

*cry*

try changing d10 to dx9 in the config file weedy - runs like a dream on my e6600 /4g ram / gtx260 @ 1680x1050 with this set.

Scoreboard text overlaps: Fixed

Yay, this one was a piss off.

Joystick issues: Being researched.

Humf :(

- Sending friend invites is very inconsistent: Fix underway.

Yay, then Mass wont hate me (as much)

I cant believe there is not a mention on the list about the Yaw invert issue. Its broken and needs to be fixed.

they haven't released much fixes for the moment, but that should be cool as long as they release a major one soon to fix a lot :)

They've been remarkably open with their customers with regards to errors and bugs, many developers would be wary of releasing a huge list of all the bugs like this.

So long as they keep up being straight up with us and work through getting them fixed, I'm willing to give them a bit of a wide berth here.

- CTD's: There were several CTDs reported. We have already addressed some in patches for CTDs when loading MP maps. Work on CTDs will continue. When reporting a CTD please don�t just say �my PC crashed to desktop�. We need to know what you were doing in game when this occurred in order to be able to research the problem.

If only they could fix this. I get 2-3 a night just doing random s***e.

"try changing d10 to dx9 in the config file weedy - runs like a dream on my e6600 /4g ram / gtx260 @ 1680x1050 with this set."

Yeah have tried this and a billion other fixes... BFBC2 is severly bottlenecking my CPU (thus bottlenecking my GPU) on my gaming rig dunno why even if lower the res to 1024x768 and everything on low i still only get 25 fps. This doesnt happen on my other two machines.

I've posted on the UK and US BFBC2 PC forums, ive seen others with exactly the same problem and theres no fix yet. No consistency between hardware, OS or drivers either. BFBC2 is the only game i have issues with on my gaming pc.

This finally finished downloading last night (STEAM) and I spent a good 5 hours on the single player, it locked up once but aside from that it runs ok enough on 1920x1080 on high.

I have noticed a bunch of glitchy textures and clipping issues. It's also a bit weird seeing people walk into a fallen telephone pole and have it move around like it was a twig.

Unfortunately the download put me over my quota so won't be able to test the MP aspect of it until after the 28th.

I'm liking the single player aspect way more than MW2's story line though.

Does the way vehicles react when they hit obstacles annoy anyone?

Tanks do this weird kind of jolt to the left or right, it shakes your screen and makes targeting impossible (if that was intended to do so, its f***en stupid because i don't think a small pile of rock should bump a massive tank).

I swear i stabbed this guy three times once and nothing happened, I wasn't lagging because everyone was moving around me as well. He took 3 knifes to the head then turned around and shot me. WTF.

I sometimes get parachuted into places I cannot get out of and once or twice I have spawned into a dead tank and was stuck.

Plenty of bugs but the game is so fun you tend to ignore them. I hope sooner or later they address these things though.

Server Browser is slow: We are addressing this with each patch update. Sort by PING should now work. Clicking cancel should return 100 servers within 5 seconds. We are looking to introduce a list by region (Europe, North America Asia) � not confirmed as feasible yet.

How is that no feasible? Every single fkn game i've ever had has had a region filter.

Also sort by ping is faul cause of half the servers still not showing ping.

^^ Because I think they build the servers with region settings so the admins can run it and set the region to 0 or 1 or whatever to designate the country. They probably left that part out of their server code so in order to filter by region they'd have to add it in.

That's just my guess.
