Widescreen Gaming Forum

I got the impression from an earlier post that EA recognizes that WS users make up a very large part of their audience. I submit that all of us wde screen users boycott the expansion pack for Battlefield 2 until our needs are seen to. That might get their attention, don't you think? ;)

No it wont, EA does not listen at all. The patch that just came out 1.03 just made the game alot worse, even more buggs.

Unfortunately, the vast share of the market still doesn't use widescreen. Say that all the members of the WSGF boycotted the addon... that's, what, 4200 people? Barely even a blip as far as EA are concerned. And given the attitude of other gamers on EA's forums, I doubt they would be sympathetic... ;)

as has been previously said, its not hard to add in the code to do it (maybe) and it is nice to have the option, you dont have games that are just 1024x768 with no texture quality adjustments, only EAX and only a set keyboard config, each PC is different (including peripherals) EA need to realise this

EA need to realise this

That's the trick, though, isn't it? :lol:

yes, a lot of people emailing will do nothing, i am sure that the mail server see's all customer support requests as spam anyway :P

Make sure you all hit this thread on the official EA forum about "Issues that still need to be resolved in v1.03"

Crikey... from the looks of it, BF2 has got a lot of problems - not just one or two. :shock:

Hehe, yes indeed. I noticed that too. Thankfully it runs well on my computer, but I do feel for those still experiencing issues post 1.03 patch.

alot of peoples complaints are mearly how the wish the game was as opposed to what is not working correctly......The next patch should be to fix broken stuff, and then work on playability concerns and wants for the the expansion pack.

Just out of curiosity though....has DICE or EA offered any indication that future patches will offer widescreen support. I was curious as to whether or not they had actually ACKnowledged it to begin with..... :?:
