Submitted Bugs & Glitches:
- Lag Problems.
- Latency search does not work in server browser.
- Keyboard binding problems..sometimes it does not transfer my settings to the game.
- Big laggs even on servers where my ping should be around ~30.
- Some or all of WASD keys stop working
(DICE: If you have a joystick connected, and it is not perfectly calibrated, then it will signal tiny movements in some direction. These tiny movements overrule the WASD keys. We are aware of the problem.
*Closed Beta workaround: Disconnect your joystick.
- Sometimes you keep moving even after you have released a key.
(DICE: Noted. We have reproduced it at the DICE office t
.
- Game gets stuck at loading screen but can still hear game sounds.

- My characters arms sometimes dissapear when i unscope with the sniperrifle.
- Sometimes I fall through stairs while trying to run up them (this is not lag).
- Spawning without parachute and falling to death.
- I cannot strafe and move forward same time.
(Note: Same as all Battlefield games, it has never been there.)
- Game crashes right after EA and DICE logos appear.
- Whenever I would hit Shift + tab I couldnt move until i alt tabbed, got back in, then pressed Esc.

- Some sounds are played in the wrong speaker.
(DICE: Audio team are investigating).
- Crackups in sound.
(DICE: No data yet).
- Weapon balancing and tuning.
(DICE: When we created the first Closed Beta, we picked the most stable build we had. (Well, you have all seen how well that build fared when it faced the real world...) We had to choose either stability or new content -- and stability won. Due to this, all content in the Closed Beta was some weeks old already at launch. *Weapon balancing is on-going in the retail game, and we are following what's happening on the forums).
- Crashing to the desktop each time a game finishes.

- WinXP 32 / WinXP 64 compatibility.
(DICE: We have done a few crash fixes, although we have no data specifically on XP64 yet).
- Updater fails downloading patch and gives a nonsensical error message about "unable to download patch, check your internet connection".
(DICE: Fixed in the retail game. The problem is both in the game's installer and in the updater. Closed Beta workaround: launch the Updater as Administrator).
- The Killcam tweaks out (jiggles back and forth) sometimes.
(Note: Only seems to happen if the person who killed you was killed prior to the spectator camera comming on).

(DICE: This one is tricky. We have no solution yet).
- The game has high framerate on a machine, yet the input is very laggy.
(DICE: We have a fix in the works).
- The game accepted my serial key, but then failed logging in to EA Online.
(DICE: Are you having any exotic characters in your password? One person who had the character ‘}’ in his password had that very problem. *Closed Beta workaround: Change your password (using
www.ea.com) to a password that only contains the characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9. Then try logging in in the game again).

Battlefield Bad Company 2 (PC) Users Requests:
- Add a SAVE button to the settings menu.
- Larger / Adjust FOV (field of view).

- Add ping display to the scoreboard, or a way to see ping.

(DICE & EA: We will not add prone based on anything. You can stop asking now)

- Make us able to turn on and off the new sound system and when its on off we got the old(like in bf2 and stuff).
- If i'm looking down my scope and hit the run key, is it possible to automatically lower my gun and start running.
- Progress bar for loading.
- Escape loading (unloading resources like BF2).
- Exit game without loading after the round ends.
- Kill cam replays, not just a view of the killer.
- Killer specs to not take up the screen which shows kills (want to see if I kill after I've been killed).
- Option to make text bigger? Some of it is too small to glance at.
- Icon showing you are speaking on the mic / icon showing who is speaking on the mic? (I haven't seen anything so far...).
- Add an icon over downed teammates on the ground so you can tell which body is the one you need to revive instead of just spamming the defib and hoping when theres lots of body's (And also in grass).
- You Shouldnt be able to spawn on a player who is being shot at/Enemy is near them.
- Spec Ops should be brought back, snipers running into a base to C4 walls and vehicles is silly.
- The Sniper's Motion Sensor grenades feel very useless, mabey swap it to a smoke grenade or claymore

- Removing/Inviting People from squads
- Add an option to change the location of your mini map.
- Option for a health bar.
- Knife as a selectable weapon.
- Let the whole map accessible. Not like when you blow up 2 bases you can more forward. And change to select where you can respawn. A few spawn points should be added to whole map.
- Change Chopper Controls.
Honestly, BF2's choppers had weight, you can feel you are dealing with a heavy machine, here its just, hit W, shoot up like a rocket and well it just feels way more restricted then in BF2 in terms of how you move the chopper across the battlefield, you can barely sway left or right (strafe with the mouse).
- Insert "mute player" option
- Vote kick/ban should be nice.
- There should be a possibility to queue and auto-join to full server(s)
-Implement a "net_graph" like in any source engine game that displays, at the very least, your ping and fps in one of the corners. Also include the option to enable/disable.
- Increase the power of weapons in normal mode and HC mode, so that we dont have to empty a full clip to one enemy (half clip in HC).
- Allow engineer to repair stations.
- Add spawn flare, so squad members parachute in designated area instead of the unrealistic instant spawn.
