Re: so is anyone actually playing it yet?

I wish I had that kind of powers, and I wish I had bf2142! I'll have it soon enough though, godlike powers has to wait to the next spawn.. wait, I'm in RL ain't I

Re: so is anyone actually playing it yet?

Iv just been playin it. Only played like 3 maps so its very hard for me to make a judgement.

Berlin seems a cool map.

The 1st thing i noticed when i joined the game at 1st is the amount of billboards on this desert map As soon as I spawned I saw like 8 billboards in my line of sight. It doesnt look as tho they have added the actual adverts yet tho.

A couple of things that bug me are the jerkiness and the dodgeyness of the collisions. Its hard to explain but it seems as the the collisions kinda stick to your feet. Its weird. Even without the bobbing , it feels pretty clunky still. Not as fluent as bf2 felt.

They GFX look better and the trees look better (and the way they are made brings warm feelings to my heart ...as far as endor goes smile .... just hope the ability to make custom trees isnt hardcoded... weve had/got some pretty major issues with our WIP trees so far , in the BF2 engine) The alpha blend on the trees is a nice touch.

As with all new games ..its a case of getting used to the maps and formulating your own kind of tactics.


PS. The control system still seems buggy. In the demo it wouldnt let me assign a key to crouch for ages and now , for some strange reason, it wont let me use the mouse to move the hover tank..... ending up with them being useless for me ..and when i jump in 1 it makes me look like a complete noob lol. It may be something iv done wrong ..but i doubt it..

Just waitin for some guys to get the game..not as much fun on your own sad

I am within the hour hopefully! (or 1.5)

Bandu for the control problem in BF2 it works to manually assign the keys in the CON files, look in the profies section in my documents/battlefield 2.

Re: so is anyone actually playing it yet?

I cant see anywhere to assign the hover tanks movement. Im pretty sure its supposed to automatically use you infantrys movement keys......but it aint sad
