QuoteMines can no longer be destroyed with other explosives
One of the payoffs for a tank shooting my mines, was the ability to set off my own mines with my grenade...I've been working on this lately :devil:

Thank gawd for that...by the time I've driven where I'm going, my tank is usually knackered...one fart & I'm dead  :P

From bf2s-site:
chuy: PLEASE BE AWARE -- Applying the patch too early will cause you to have very few available servers. Most ranked providers won't be updating till the official release.

So I'm wondering what's going on...

Edit: I've been reading a bit more and the patch is out on several sites for the clientside of the game. Also a few servers have been patched.
I'll be waiting for the patch from the EAsite though. I remember the last few patches and me installing them.....

Ya know, if I'd only taken the time to look deeper I would have found it.

Got it from a link in the comments section of BluesNews.

And here (http://www.torrentspy.com/torrent/536675/BF2_1_2_Patch_100Mbit_seeder) it is.
