[wihadmin]

Can I get about 20 people to come play?

[redish16]

Ahh, that looks sweet!!

Operation Ghost Train looks like it will be a blast with all that cover.

[LordBeer]

[Drayu]

Just a quick note first.....PRMM has dropped the MM and is now just PR!!!

Back onto my topic!!!!
PR has implemented a kit limiting system! IT sounds AWESOME!!!! Read this link:

[Tykwer]

they should've droped the mini part at .32 or what ever. sure, when it first came out it was itty bitty since it was just focused on tweaking bf2 game play to make it real (i think the only thing they had actually added and didnt just tweak back then was the little bird, but im not sure), but then they came out with their own maps and all that other good stuff.

i just hope everyone's willing to play it when .4 comes out.

[Drayu]

Yeah me too tykwer! The Kit limiting request system sounds awesome.

[Prowler130]

[Drayu]

Yes, for BF2.

[Tykwer]

oohhhhh SNAP! this will be a very good weekend indeed.

[Tykwer]

so far i only see the server files for .4 on their site. stop tormenting me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vic.tz]

Client files have been released! but only in torrents...

[Tykwer]

Client files have been released! but only in torrents...

boo torrents! im up to about 10 Kb/s!...
alright, that's better. im at like 100kb/s now. why is it that torrents start slow and speed up whereas it seems down loading from an ftp site starts fast and then drops considerably?

[redish16]

Torrents start slow because there are few with the parts of the file needed to download. The more users that are there for seeding, the faster the download for you.

Still just a torrent, damnit !!

[Tykwer]

only got about half an hour to go on bit torrent :sleeping:

[redish16]

Downloading at about 40k

:thumbsdown:

[Tykwer]

Downloading at about 40k

:thumbsdown:

i was going between 100 and 200 kb/s with bit torrent, but it still took 4 hours...

it looks really sweet though even on my lame computer. there's new modes so everyone's a newb runing around aimlessly again. so fun! most server are in europe, as with seemingly every damn mod. glory hounds must be located in TX cause im still getting a good ping there. i hope wih will have a server!

this one is the fastest as of now and i was vascillating between 175 and 125k. ugg. i stopped it to look more now i cant get back on.

might wait a day if this doesnt get going.

[Tykwer]

unless i zip through all my calculus home work in record time, i prob wont be able to play much today.

as far as the game goes, it was loads of fun. i did not try the kit request and i heard a lot of people saying it didnt work, but i dont know if they were just experiencing the invisible kit problem or it really didnt work or what. the new modes are fun, but they can be pretty chaotic since everyone, save the beta testers, are all newbs at it. there's a ton of different VIP modes and also a variation on the advance and secure mode on the map with the dust storm (fallujah?) where the mec or what ever team cant take back the flags they lose so you gotta stand your ground well.

the thing that stands out the most because it is both really cool and you're always hearing it is the new sounds for when bullets whiz over your head. "usually the sound is just a woosh" as one of my squad mates last night, a marine who fought in fallujah, explained, "which isnt really how it sounds, it's a lot more like a crack," a whip crack that is. it sounds so insane, it's sweet. when you're taking fire, you are WELL aware of it!

the only bad thing i can think of was this one basrah map. it was a really cool map, but there were a few things that made it lame. the first of which was the fact that it was in AAS mode so we could only go for one flag. this isnt usually a problem, but the flag was like 600+ meters away from our freaking base!!! so it was hard for the entire team to mobilize as a unit and hit the flag as a team with overwhelming fire power. instead, there would be like one or two squads getting there and being destroyed by the 20 guys camping the flag. the other thing that made it a boooooring map was the fact that one team had 400 tickets and the other had 1000 and no side suffered from bleeding so the god damn map must've lasted one and a half to two hours. so lame!


oh yeah, i almost forgot to mention!!! guess what they added to the game!!!
that's right!

not like i can fly it, but i still like a-10s. and the damned thing can be heard from damn near the other side of the map! it's a beast. i will caution you though, that hanger doors dont seem quite wide enough for people to taxi it straight out of the hanger. instead,it gets hung up on one side and so you've got to do a good deal of taxing (taxi-ing taxiing??? i dont want to say it was taxing like it took a lot out of you...) to get back on the run way for take off
this is taken like 3 secs after the last one

i did forget to mention, there are grappling hooks on certain levels now. the added stuff really makes me think of BF2:special forces, which i LOVE. there were ATVs, dirt bikes, grappling hooks, certain buildings and statics that were yanked from BF2:SF. so cool!
