Topic: First 1013 Community Game

Firstly, screenies!

The end of the second(?) Mos Espa match. I love close calls such as this one.

Now, this is quite the standoff.

The new turret wrecks (well, frankly speaking they're not new, but now they actually appear where the turrets were, and not a hundred meters in the air).

Had some good Mos Espa rounds today. Best part was when I was arrived at the Palace Ruins by Combat Speeder and took up position manning the gun, when all of a sudden another speeder, with three or four stormies aboard, comes to a halt only a few meters away from me. I manage to swing the gun around and single-handedly kill a stormie disembarking and the speeder's gunner before a second disembarked guy gets me. If I had reacted faster and had my gun pointed their way, I'd have gotten all of them. Have to download the BR clip and see that moment again smile .

Other than that, twice the same round did I do a decent job at the CS or E-Web killing infantry, only to find I suddenly had infantry sneaking up behind me. Gotta learn to watch my back.

How does everyone feel about the changes so far smile ?

Ya.  After you made that comment at the end of Round 1 about "No BI knifing me today", I spent a fair bit of the next round looking for you (on your team) to knife kill you.  However, the common 2142 bug regarding out of place name tags, your tag was floating in a random spot of the map, and you were running around tagless, making locating you very hard.   The few times I did spot you, it was when we were being attacked, and at that point defending the CP was more important sad.

Best part was when I was arrived at the Palace Ruins by Combat Speeder and took up position manning the gun

I had two good moments with ye today.  First was you coming round in a Combat Speeder, an AT-ST was round the corner, I typed "Safe, Anti AT-ST, I'll drive", I run to the Speeder, I'm away to get in and RSF Angel shoots you in the head with a sniper (wouldn't have killed you last week).  I failed at taking the AT-ST single handedly

Also another time the AT-ST came around.  You were at the other side of the road, I saw you had the support kit, I started shooting at the AT-ST drawing it's fire.  You jumped over a building to get behind it and started putting down proton nadehen Ssential and a pubber joined you in doing the same thing.  All this time, I was avoiding the AT-ST fire, getting slowly killed as the splash damage was hitting me. Down to 5HP, BOOOM, AT-ST down.  Epic.

I'll be honest.  I've smiled every time I've seen one of the edits I made ingame.  I've already seen a MUCH heavier use of the Smoke Grenade, and the mortar delay time is really effective (benu did that one, he's chuffed too tongue).  And I LOVE THE SPACEDUST! YEAHHHH!   Of Course, the other fixes are good too, we've been really needing this, and I'm proud I was part of it.  Just got to finalise our tank-balance fixes and then we'll have another big bugfix update to submit big_smile

Re: First 1013 Community Game

Bah, didn't see the anti-AT-ST message sad . Just saw someone come up to the speeder and thought, who is that and what the heck does he want big_smile .

I'll be honest.  I've smiled every time I've seen one of the edits I made ingame.

Hehe, it should be mentioned that we spent some time fixing those very fixes before we could put them in game (10 meter PMG delay, anyone tongue ).

But yes, nice work smile .

Boy does that make a huge difference. It opens a whole new way to play certain maps/ CP's.
I found a good spot and was able to suppress the entire Slave Quarters, dropping anyone who dared take up a firing stance against the entrance.
Thinning out the defence allowed the Imps to get right in and neutralise.
(my apologies to anyone I killed as they spawned. I'd do it again- but that wasn't why I was there and I know that wasn't fun to have happen to you.)
Eventually someone spawned at City house with a disruptor and ruined my fun with two well placed shots (presumably my arse blocked the headshot)
