Here are some of the confirmed changes that will be included in the upcoming patch for Bad Company 2.
-One of the Insignia's requiring an unobtainable Bronze star for the tracer dart - requirement removed. -Hit registration changes brought over from MOH to BC2; several bugfixes, the client<->server send rates have been increased, some of the hitboxes themselves have been changed. This will increase the accuracy of guns, but will not make much of a difference to the knife. Removed the blue box behind the chat window. -The 2-second immunity when spawning/being revived can will now be immediately remove either by firing, zooming, or any movement (move, crouch, jump). Merely looking around will not remove the invulnerability. In essence: If a person moves, he is never invulnerable. -3D vision fixed.
The patch hasn't yet been dated for release, but expect it in the following weeks.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 was launched by DICE this spring for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
