Default I think I'm joining the Special Forces boycott club...

...at least until EA fixs the friendly fire bug. Sheesh, I think it got worse since the last patch. I just got kicked from a server for excessive TKing (and I really can't blame them) because of this thing. The worst part is that it comes in so many different forms. Sometimes enemies will have blue tags, friendlies will have red tags, or friendlies will have enemy voices. Its not the amount of bugs that bug me (pun not intended...I guess), but this ONE bug which is so bad. It's hard to think of a worse bug for a multiplayer game. So, I'm boycotting Special Forces until I see this bug fixed (though it will probably be fixed by then).

yep, nobody care you are boycotting something you can't buy already, you really aren't boycotting anything. I wonder how many more pointless threads we can create for a fake cause. Maybe you should personaly email EA and tell them your problem. and then they will reply back with a big fancy letter, and your own special patch to fix your problem.

If EA plans to make SF come out eventually I am. It's called the passage of time.

I don't even have BF2. Does this mean I'm part of some larger, unnamed boycott?

As part of the platinum boycott package, you are not only boycotting EA but several 3rd world country governments. Good job and keep up the effort valued customer.

I wonder why you aren't posting your stats then. Oh yeah, and to hell with team play, KD ratios are all that matter. Especially if you are a glory greedy waste of oxygen.

Oh yeah, and in response to lego:

I know, and I will buy Special Forces if they fix these bugs within a reasonable amount of time (before it comes out).

1. its not an easy job to fix all the bugs and problems in the game.
2. i do believe its too early to release another expansion pack.
3. boycotting won't do shit because others will still buy the game. just tell ea your problems and wait for them to fix it. have patience. there is still the fun side of the game.
