That was funny. I still need to post the screenshot to them though unless one of the dev's is trolling around here and can tell me they already know about getting in the container ... *cricket sounds*...

I havn't seen the TG server up in 2 days, probably just logged on at a bad time.

heh, sorry, but while this is active, what's the IP?

**Betterdeadthanred** · 06-21-2007, 12:52 PM

I just logged on today and there is 1 server up on beta with 16 people and NOBODY on the TG .5 server.

Is the world comming to an end?

**ikill4aliving** · 06-21-2007, 12:57 PM

maybe Better, but the beta server i think can only be brought back up by Asch? I know LuckyShot can't do anything to get it back up. I wish you were with us last night Better It was a blast, I can't believe me of all people found a way to cap a flag and not get hurt

Better: Do you remeber this?

According to the PR forums, things are going well on the 0606 closed test and should move to open beta release this weekend.

In an interesting development in the ammo bag department, apparently the ammokit still isn't behaving like it should and this has inspired talk of removing them altogether. For the 0606 OB release, it looks like rifleman and support will each get one bag that they can throw down like in v.5, then for v.7, the devs might look towards this:

From eggman:

For v0.7 where I am thinking we will go is:
- remove ammo bags
- give LAT 2 rounds
- make LAT take a realistic amount of time to arm, fire and reload the weapon
- add lethal backblast to LAT so it's not a no brainer to use

I think that all sounds great. With all the extra re-supply points (the new CO assests), vehicles, RPs, supply drops, etc....I think getting rid of ammo bags is a good move!

**Skud** · 06-22-2007, 09:23 PM

YES!

AA had backblast that was really dead on.

However...what about snipers? It's bad to say "well crap, low on ammo, have to leave my perfect position!"

NOTE: Normally we don't release on a weekend, but because this is just a beta release, we'll probably be releasing the next open beta update on Saturday.

Make those snipers suffer, especially those insurgent with only about 20 bullets

Saturday is today, anyone seen a link?

Has anyone been able to contact Asch? Is he aware of this cause it 's been almost a week now...

I really hope we can get 0.606 up tonight
