Patch Out On 23rd June

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>So early signs are we fixed the problem by rolling back a change involving SPECACT kits.

As long as this continues we are aiming to release on Wednesday (23rd) of next week. However this is dependant on how fast we can gain approval the patch is compliant with Steam. If that approval does not come quick enough the release will slip to the Monday (28th) of the week after (as it is a red day in Sweden on Friday next week and we don't release patches at the end of working weeks).

This does mean that SPECACT kits will not be available after patching as we had hoped but all other fixes remain as does the ability to play the new modes like Map Pack #3. </div>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>A tweet by Barrie "Bazajaytee" Tingle follows up on yesterday's news that the PC patch for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 suffered a failure during Steam testing, saying a fixed patch is back in Valve's hands for evaluation: "BFBC2 PC patch is back on its way for STEAM compatibility testing with Kalms making all the fixes and QA here confirmed it working." This is confirmed in Community News #1 on the Battlefield Blog, where Barrie says: "I would also like to add that the BFBC2 PC patch is currently still in development and we have sent it for STEAM compatibility testing today. All being well the patch will be released early next week. For information on what the patch fixes take a look at the changelog on the official forums at <a href="http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk."" target="_blank">http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk."</a> Bazajaytee also declares Wednesdays "Community Wednesdays" where he "will give you guys a weekly update in the form of a blog post, but also in forums and a direct link to this on the official BFBC2 twitter account at <a href="http://twitter.com/OfficialBFBC2."" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/OfficialBFBC2."</a> </div>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> After a lot of trials and tribulations, all versions of the game client has now completed QA successfully.
We will do no more testing on it.

All game servers will need to be taken down for updates. The maintenance period starts on Wednesday Jun 30th at 07:00AM (GMT+2). Most of them should be back up by 11:00AM (GMT+2).

During this time window, we will also release the new game client.

Check back after 11:00AM (GMT+2), and try out the new game client!
