I realize a lot of people are having problems once the patch was downloaded, but mine actually got better. Considering EA's last announcement to un-install BF2 with the patch and re-install it to its original retail version, does that mean my choices for multiplayer servers would be limited since I assume most would follow through with what EA officially announced?
