According to my sources, basically someone who still plays Battlefield 2, DICE recently unveiled the latest, and final patch features for the Battlefield 2 series. Available to download as an open beta, it fixes a number of small problems the game often encountered. While the game is far from having a complete overhaul problems addressed are often about cheating and particularly the balance between the various jets.

Features
- Additional support for Windows Vista.
- Added Highway Tampa as a required map.
- Added a new map called Operation Blue Pearl.

Gameplay Tweaks
- Changes made to both the J10 and F35B to make them more balanced. Please note that the J10 is a superior dogfighter to the F35B and as such these two aircraft will never be equally matched.
- AA targeting tweaked to make it more effective.
- Added checks to prevent “runway grieving”.
- Various changes made to prevent cheating.
- Tweaked the hit detection, hits will be more accurate to the model.

Seems pretty mediocre, don't think it will get me particularly hyped up again about the game.

Take a look at this forum: http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-2/544569-operation-blue-pearl-feedback.html It will give you a pretty good idea of what the map looks like.

also take a look at these Google images: http://images.google.ca/images?hl=en&q=Operation%20Blue%20Pearl&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
