which patch etc

[wizdumb]

so i'm attending a bf2 lan on 14/3, and havent played bf2 for a long time, so i'll be reinstalling bf2 on my machine...

...now just to be ready for lan, which patches (and potentially other updates) would i need to download before attending?

on the ea site it has the 1.41 and 1.4 full patches available, so i guess 1.41 is the newest?

also if there anywhere i could d/l these files etc locally?

i was not talking about that one, this one is more a group of friends, and friends of friends...

...20 peeps so far, last i heard

ps: i still need find out what i must d/l beforehand - as i just want to start playing and drinking my beer

wizdumb, doesn't really matter if they don't have the game also patched up.
Unless they specified that you must have the latest patch.

Games.saix.net should have all the patches.

cool thx...

...there is a link

Download Game Content : ftp.games.saix.net/battlefield_2

is this were i'll download what i am looking for? i'm on pre-paid so i don't want to waste nnecessary data

 

[medicnick83]

Yes... correct.

 

[wizdumb]

sweet....


...next time your in jhb, the 1st round of drinks is on me

[edit] eeck those patches are huge 400-500mb... i guess most patches for most games are that size
lets hope someone at the lan has the patches, so that i could just copy it from 'em

 

[medicnick83]

U just make a note of that

 

[wizdumb]

lol, noted and diarised

just out of interest, do i need to register on games.saix before i can d/l anything there?

not that i think, I have downloaded that exact patch before and im fairly certain i wasn't registered

 

[wizdumb]

cool, will give it a try as soon as i load a new databundle

 

[wizdumb]

turns out that i had the 1.4 patch on my pc installed...

...had boat loads of fun at my lan, and after 3-4 maps i was placed in the top4 in my team for last few maps
