For anyone who is still interested there has been a little more progress with 1.5. Beta 3 should be available within 24hrs and will more than likely be the final beta.

New changes in Beta 3 are in bold:
Quote from DICE:
* Made some more tweaks to J10 handling to even its balance against other jets. - Fixed
* Hit detection is better but only for those on low pings - We have seen some improvement from the closed beta results but let us know what you think.
* Sand bags have "glass" effect in Operation Blue Pearl - In Test
* Operation Blue Pearl is missing UAV ability - Fixed
* Clicking on JOIN or double clicking a server occasionally resets the game back to server browser - Fixed
* Occasional connection drops after being on a server a couple of minutes - Fixed
* Consensus to reduce grenades per kit - Will not be changed
* Consensus to revert to 0.3 second delay between jump and prone - Fixed
* Crashes when changing Falcon settings sometimes. - Fixed
* YASU causes conflict with BF2.exe preventing the game from running - In Test
* Commander assets do not always fire/work - Fixed
* Mouse wheel acceleration on jeeps and APC's - In Test
* Mouse wheel acceleration on parachutes - In Test
* Widescreen, FOV doesn't change - Not changed at this time
* Unable to exit static anti tank in OBP - Fixed
* Falcon controller prevents joystick controls being assigned to work especially on jets and helicopters. Falcon always acts as primary controller for pitch and roll. Resets to Falcon at the start of every round. - Fixed
* The jets on Highway Tampa were replaced with attack choppers in 1.50 - Fixed, Highway Tampa is now as it was in 1.41
* The graphics for Highway Tampa are the same as Mashtuur City on create a local match in the menu and load screen. - Fixed
* Spotting as Commander doesn't always work, closing Commander screen and re-opening solves this - Investigating
* Picking up the kit of a player who disconnected causes crashes - Fixed
* Audio settings do not always save after clicking APPLY - Fixed
* Registry Version remains at 1.4 after Update 1.5 is installed - Fixed
* Community/Custom games shows BF2 and Special Forces as version 1.4 instead of 1.5 - Fixed but didnt make it to Beta 3
* BF2OpenAL.dll was version 1.1.1.0 - Fixed - Updated to version 2.1.8.1
* ch_gas_station collision mesh on Dragon Valley was inconsistent with other gas station buildings - Fixed
* MEC artillery piece on Operation Clean Sweep changes to the USMC's control when they capture the Airfield flag - Fixed
* Challenger2 HUD icon was incorrect showing M1A2 HUD icon instead - Fixed
* Road to Jalalabad has PLA FAV spawn in place of a MEC FAV - Fixed
* Dragon Valley Chinese artillery used default respawn time instead of 360 seconds as other artillery uses - Fixed
* Bizon (PP-19) had no delay time after weapon switch - Fixed (this now has a delay of 0.666)
* F35B had a lock delay of 1.5 compared to 1 second lock delay of other aircraft - Fixed
* Incorrect camo Humvee was being spawned in Taraba Quarry - Fixed
* UH-60 (Black Hawk) guns had 0.25 splash damage setting, down from 3 making it difficult to hit infantry. - Fixed (this is now set to 1.5 to improve the UH-60's usefulness while not allowing it to dominate)
* It was impossible to pass a claymore unless an engineer disarmed it first. - Fixed (players can now go prone to pass the claymore)
* Allow BF2.exe to use more than 2Gb RAM on machines that support it - Fixed
* Modify HUD in TV guided missile view that makes viewing difficult on maps like Dragon Valley - Fixed
* Army hardware takes too long to spawn on Wake Island - Investigating
* Mouse control didn't work in Special Forces - Fixed
* Falcon controls overwrote on every map load in Special Forces - Fixed
* Highway Tampa crashes at 14% - Fixed
* Added Battlefield 2142 style prone deviation - Fixed (going prone will now cause reduced accuracy for a brief period the same system BF2142 uses)

Quote from DICE:
Files are currently going out to the RSP's to run some Beta 3 servers starting from tomorrow (Tuesday 7th) each RSP that runs servers will have the client files to help those not close to the UK getting the client files.

Please pay attention to the J10 aircraft to see if you feel anymore difference.

Connection issues should be ironed out and kick messages are back in the game.

Please do NOT install over a previous 1.50 Beta install. Install over 1.41 Battlefield 2 to ensure you don't get any unusual issues from overwriting files that shouldnt be there. When doing a reinstall (if you have to) please delete the Battlefield 2 directory after you have uninstalled. Also I recommend deleting profiles and cache files from your My Documents folder to ensure a clean install.

Why are they changing the TV HUD? I thought that was half the fun on maps like Dragon.

Better than an IRC log, or is it? Maybe it isnt. Who are we to define what is better or worse than anything in the end at the day of the?

Paint yourself a picture
