Yay EA. More milking of BF2.

Copied word for word ('cos i'm lazy) from http://www.gamespot.com/news/2006/02/17/news_6144508.html?part=rss&tag=gs_&subj=6144508

Euro Force booster pack on schedule for release next week via downloader; v1.2 patch at issues with Special Forces expansion.

Electronic Arts' Battlefield 2 is gearing up for another set of reinforcements. The first-person shooter has already received some new troops in the form of Battlefield 2: Special Forces. The expansion was released in November, and was available in both retail and via the EA Downloader, the publisher's online distribution service.

Battlefield 2 fans need only hang on a little while longer until even more fresh troops arrive. The game's first booster pack, Battlefield 2: Euro Force, will be available via download on February 21. Included in the content, which is available only through the EA Downloader, will be several new weapons, vehicles, and kits.

Gamers who recently updated their copies of Battlefield 2 to version 1.2 may have noticed that the war is sometimes over before it begins. EA is aware of a bug that causes v1.2 to crash when gamers try and play two maps from the Special Forces expansion. All variants of Leviathan and the 32- and 64-player Night Flight maps are affected, and EA is working towards solving the problem.

something i wont be getting, i waited ages till christmas for the SF addon and that was a major disappointment, so no doubt this will be too.

I personally think that BF2 would be a better game if EA didn't make/publish it whatever they do, that way we dont have endless ****ty expansion packs :p

I'd only buy it if it were free :P
