Topic: How are you finding the update so far?

Let us know what you think, those having specific issues should direct their reports to the client forums where possible.

Other than that though, lets see some opinions on the new co-op maps, ai tweaks and some of the other minor tweaks and improvements made to the mod in general.

Want to make a fan video? Rebel Defiance has BR running! You can now download your battles against the bots. Just go through the community tab, select battle recorder then select a map battle from the list.

Will the BR's be there from yesterday?

Yes. The server has been running BR since 1.55.

Re: How are you finding the update so far?

I've played just one evening, so I still have a lot to see and comment on, but so far I've had tons of fun.  I'm really enjoying the new changes.

Glad you were able to give attention to some of the 'minor details' that didn't break the game when they weren't quite right, but add a lot to the game now that they are more polished. (I've got Bacta!)

Some things I have enjoyed so far:
The starfighter explosions look great in the distance as well as up close.  The bots are cool with their grenade use and general fuller use of the kits, paths and tactics. (Found myself checking the player list now and then to see just how many humans were on the other team)

It's cool seeing the bot medics in action.  I'm not quite sure but I think I saw a couple of Rebel ones throw sonic grenades skyward, like signal flares, on a couple of occasions like real players sometimes do.  Are they just having fun?  I will have to investigate this.....FOR SCIENCE! tongue

I like the new co-op maps and having tank battles vs bots is awesome.

Best of all, there were people playing when I was playing, like 10pm EST and later!

Icing on the cake.  Thanks guys!  I miss that from BI server.  I'm really going to have some fun - Once I figure out what to delete to make room for all the vids I'll end up making.

If I find anything good I'll throw it up on the Livestream channel or (Xfire/youtube if it's really good.)





I wonder - What in the world will the release of Hoth be like? big_smile

Look forward to seeing it CAAM!

Just to really help you guys experience some real fun on the mod, I've now customised the Rebel Defiance server so that you can fully experience some full on battles! The bot numbers have been increased to 40 and their difficulty raised a little higher. If people enjoy the challenge and the server handles the stress, I may even increase the bot numbers a little more wink

Re: How are you finding the update so far?

I wouldn't increase it any further to be honest, I had a little lag/frame drop on the space maps when there was a shedload of laserfire going on, but it wasn't enough to disrupt my game too much, but I don't know how it was for people with a higher ping than me. At this increased level you certainly do get great and intense battles.
