Re: OMFG JETPAX!!!

I think the jetpack needs to be removed now.  So far it's only disrupted gameplay.

Re: OMFG JETPAX!!!

don't remove it, I still haven't be able to try it ! ><

I allready brought up a thread about dark troopers and they are apparently impossible to make in the 2142 engine.

Re: OMFG JETPAX!!!

Some people have made good use out of it. I have seen some who havegrown quite good at it, had someone flying around and managed to get a T21 too, kept our advance in Bestine slowed down too. Grabbed a screen of omen screwing around yesterday when woodrow let us toy around for a couple mins yesterday.

Re: OMFG JETPAX!!!

I've already learned that alot of people who know its location will sit and camp the spawn point.


The game we had in Bestine a few days ago, there were about 3 people each going up there all the time, and 1 person just sitting at the point and not doing ANYTHING at all, until he got his jetpack.

Those people are idiots, but it does illustrate how much people love the kit.
People loving things is a poor reason to remove them.

If you want to 'force' team work as seems to be the FS ethos , perhaps it could be keyed to spawn only at the 'hot' imperial CP- ie the ones the rebs can currently attack (at any one time). Then you'd have the guys playing as normal, defending their cps and the amadáns milling around the same cps providing meatshields at the least.

It might also provide the attacking rebs a chance to get the kit if they are fast (though they can't pick it up now unless they loot a corpse)

Re: OMFG JETPAX!!!

Dark troopers used Jump packs, not jet packs.  This is all wrong, big_smile.
