Battlefield 2 Comedy of Errors

Here, have a timeline:

1. EA ships the game with a broken server browser, Gamespy's browser doesn't initially work, and in general there's a laundry list of things to be fixed.
2. Some of this stuff magically gets rectified.
3. EA ships a 1.01 patch, full of so many more problems PLUS a giant memory leak that casually blows up servers after a short time of being online
4. Most people don't even bother upgrading because seriously, why bother?
5. EA pulls the 1.01 patch altogether.
6. EA pulls all their hosted BF2 servers offline (but gives everyone some free credits, that makes it ok, right guys?!!)
7. All BF2 stuff explodes to the point that now no one can log in to be able to play multiplayer at all. This is potentially due to a massive DoS attack being launched against them.

gg EA. Nextmap.
