Re: New Beta Patch v1.10 info :
Sounds like decent fixes. As much as I ridicule DICE I'll admit that they did a pretty good job at balancing everything and KEEPING it balanced, instead of just nerfing everything to **** like other games I've played. They seem to have a vision that they're following, which is good.

Man, about time they let the gunship to actually do some real AT work. Until now, the gunship is pretty useless in AT unless it is very close to the target.

I like the sound of this. It's too bad it's taken months to get this stuff fixed, but better late than never.

Re: New Beta Patch v1.10 info :
Well, it seems like some of the fixes are just bandaids that stop the bug from occouring, instead of fixing the bug. IE: Titan lag when moving, they just stopped the titan from being able to move when shields are down. Now this thing with the sentry drone. Although they may have just done it because it was too effective indoors.

Anyone know if the vehicle entry range and repair range are related? It'd be nice if the repair range was expanded - there'd be fewer accidental deaths.

Re: New Beta Patch v1.10 info :
Stopping the titan after the shields go down is not that bad of a fix. It's easy to implement and easy to test. There are minor impacts to game play. Sometimes the most elegant solution is too expensive so the simplest solution is used.
The sentry drone fix is to prevent an exploit. It's not to prevent its use indoors. We won't be seeing players glitching inside crates in the titan cargo bay anymore.

Ganz is already useful in the right hands

Though maybe my great k:d ratio with it is simply because I'm the only person who uses it.2142: |TG-Irr| Silverfish

How about fixing the squad bug on teamswapping that has been occuring lately?




-- Suits are what you wear when doing things you shouldn’t want to do anyway.
FROM THE TACTICAL GAMER PRIMER.
3) Support game play in a near-simulation environment. Where the focus of play would not be solely on doing what it takes to win, but doing so utilizing real-world combat strategy and tactics rather than leveraging exploits provided to players by the design of the game engine.

Re: New Beta Patch v1.10 info :
just back up your 1.06 version and then install the beta and try it out. There won't be many 1.1 servers so you'll probably want to go back to 1.06. Read this if you not sure how to back up your 2142 file:
