			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>its more about the balance, though I must admit, the personnel opinions of the dev team in control at the time do have some bearing <img src="https://forums.fsmod.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /> The X-Wing on Jundland was just a little too overpowering, but the bulk of that was done before the sentinel made it in. Would be interesting to see how that changed now, but then again, would require a different make up of the major CP&#039;s. </p><p>As to jetpax, that decision was made by the community. We had constant feedback from people saying the jetpack was ruinging the map due to half a team waiting in one spot for that kit, then killing each other to get control. That left the rebels to pretty much run over the map. The imps that were trying to play the game felt very let down by the members of the team and the maps overall makeup as a result. </p><p>I have said I&#039;d put the jetpack in to a SP map for future use so people can have fun doing it and use it in SP or Co-Op but ver few people responded. Though...I have actually added it as permanent kit selection items in a SP/Co-Op map that is currently under going testing and has not yet been publicly released. imps get bounty hunter kit instead of the officer kit, Rebs get the Jedi. Its a lot of fun. </p><p>Whoops...there goes some NDA, but then, lets fac it, half of what gets made in to a newspost/leaked these days never actually gets released <img src="https://forums.fsmod.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p>ps excuse spelling, its bank holiday and I been enjoying a few beverages <img src="https://forums.fsmod.com/img/smilies/tongue.png" width="15" height="15" alt="tongue" /></p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>It will not be able to get this mod into the Steam Mods section due to licensing.</p><p>Getting the mod working with steam shouldn&#039;t actually be that much of an issue, though.&nbsp; At least there will only be one launcher for all versions (no worrying about OS or deluxe edition or anything).&nbsp; It&#039;s quite possible that FS will work with steam right out of the box(?), depending on how steam generates its BF2142 registry info.</p><p>One issue that will come with steam, though, is likely punkbuster will have FITS with the steam overlay.&nbsp; BF2 on steam had the same issue.&nbsp; It&#039;s possible to disable the overlay, but I bet a lot of people give up before then. :&lt;</p><br /><p>EDIT: Infact, with the latest patch, I believe all BF2142 versions have the same (no CD) exe, so it really is possible that FS will work straight away.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Aye, there were a lot of issues with that last patch in particular with the <strong>1.51 Beta</strong>, and then several other versions of <strong>1.51 </strong>that were released before the final definitive one, which caused people a lot of issues, as you&#039;ll still see now as people try to get <strong>First Strike </strong>to work, only to find out that they haven&#039;t got the right version of <strong>BF2142 1.51</strong>, which is a pain to say the least.</p><p>@ <strong>TK</strong>, when I was talking about problems that might be caused by <strong>STEAM</strong>, I&#039;m more talking about issues with making <strong>First Strike </strong>compatible with it, what with our update facility for <strong>First Strike</strong>, and the compatibility issues we had (and continue to have) with <strong>1.51</strong>. Rather than <strong>STEAMs</strong> effectiveness as a software distribution system.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Indeed, it is something we have been waiting for ever since <strong>BF2 </strong>was released over <strong>Steam</strong>. Of course it&#039;ll most likely bring with it new problems as <strong>1.51 </strong>did, but I&#039;m sure that&#039;ll be far outweighed by the potential infux of new players that come to check us out.</p><p>So yeah, good news indeed, and about time.</p><p><img src="https://forums.fsmod.com/img/smilies/cool.png" width="15" height="15" alt="cool" /></p>]]></content>
