From what i read, it was not a bug. I'm not on my home computer so I dont have the link, but once I get on it (in about 8 hours or so) I'll be able to link it here. Apparently some guy "hacked" the BF2 Ranking system and unlocked all weapons for anyone with an ID of 4,000,000 to 4,500,000 (I think those are the numbers.) Whether or not he actually did it, it seems that only the people with the ID's in the range he provided are the ones with all unlocks. He also claims that next week he will do something (like promoting people to the highest rank) on a new range of IDs. Dunno if any of that is true, though.
July 22, 2005 23:16 - EA quote to the community "Unfortunately we haven't lived up to the standard we have set for ourselves and we know that. So all of us at EA/Dice are working extra hard to make sure the BF2 experience improves dramatically in the coming weeks."
i didn't get the unlock...and i still kick everyone's **** <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> though 10 people running around with m95s is a bit annoying.
I like this line And I thought Vivendi was bad. Poor customer service, whoring out both Valve and Blizzard and having them release beta products just to line there coffers.
It seems I was wrong and Vivendi had an incestuous child, complete with all the birth defects, not just mildly retarded, fully f'ing retarded .... and named it EA.

My responces to different actions concerning bf2
Demo released... meh
Game released... previous meh stopped me from buying it
Actually I'm waiting for the one mod I play on bf1942 to move to the BF2 engine. Forgotten Hope. Actually the same thing happened with bf1942.
bf1942 demo released. WOW, it rocks...
Game released. Gottah get me one of these... And played it a long time (NS was a competitor for my gametime back then too <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) But eventually I got bored with the arcade type of game it actually was. Then I came across Forgotten hope and I'm still playing it. The same thing will happen with Forgotten hope 2, only FH1 at the moment totally beats bf2 for me at least. Forgotten hope 2 will whipe the floor with BF2.
Eventually I'll get it. But not at the moment, since it actually failed to impress me
Compare this model against ANY other BF2 tank model, keep in mind that the PanzerIII is still rendered in the bf1942 engine, so it doesn't have the shadow casting and bumbmapping. But as far as detailed polygons and skinning go it isn't the lesser one, I would even say it's the better one <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
