Patch 1.3 is the greatest patch ever (Pics inside)

I feel the new Air Drop feature really sucks. So much for realism. I don't remember anyone recalling and complaing about vehicles not falling from the sky. I believe it adds spawn camping to a whole new level. Goto the carrier and ask for Car, great. Now you and your squad can ruin the game. I just feel it's not a required feature.

I don't think that it should be take out completely, but rather modified so it can only be dropped if requested by a squad leader, just so the sky wont be raining with cars all over the place./

Prepatch we talked about this and what you mentioned has come to fruition.

Personally I would have had them ONLY be able to drop vehicles on positions at ground level only (elevation 0). Carriers are above the ground so you wouldn't get to drop there - tops of buildings, cranes, etc...as well.

Adding that restriction should alleviate 95% of the problems and have it work like intended.

^^^Thanks Harmor

Welcome :-)

There is a maximum number of simultanious vehicles that can in the game at one time, I think its 4 or 5. If they are being used then the commander can't drop any more (the button is grey and you'll get a message, "Cartillery not available!!!" :-)

i actually like the new vehicle drop, it has come in handy the last few nights. however, last night i jumped in an oman sever that had one other guy playing around in it. i was just flying and playing, like landing width wise on the carrier with the sukhoi. anyways, he starts dropping vehicles all over the airfield. i finally let him get me, and asked him if he got a medal for it. lol regardless he kept doing it, so i raped him harder than ive ever raped anyone, and i dont like base raping. regardless, he kept taking the punishment from me, and was a good sport about it. in the end we had a few laughs, then he said he had to go help his wife with a few things... wink, wink :0) for some reason before he left he wanted to clarify if i was german or not since he was, which i told him negative. (not sure why)

Good idea, but I think your over complicating it.

Just have it so that SL have to request it.

Simple.

They should have a stat for Cartillery

Re: Patch 1.3 is the greatest patch ever (Pics inside)

All you have to do is drop vehicles on top of snipers. Even if you miss and you drop next to them, they 'll die 10 sec later when the vehicle explodes. LOL what a stupid patch. And the whole thing with lowering the requirements for the awards is a joke. Now every noob will have expert badges, and tons of medals. I was thinking about quiting lately, but now it's definitely the time.

then why dont you. i have put up with this for all the expansions and the patches "well lets make petitons and whatnot" thats so dumb. first off the vehciles are great. dont frop them on snipers use them to help your team. second off some of the "noob" medals like the grappeling hook and the zipline were broke before. and the explosive badge is a great one as well as getting rid of the hours on the AA and TOW. 15 minutes was a long time on those but hours. forget about it

Re: Patch 1.3 is the greatest patch ever (Pics inside)

The only thing I hate more than this sub-par game are the fanboys who defend it. If you TRULY like the game as it is then you will accept substandardness your whole life. Yea, you can say "If you don't like it, quit playing." And many of times I want to. But the game does offer some comedic relief as well and time spent with mates talking smack. I have given EA 3 chances. As in the game itself, SF, and European Forces. Some things have been made a little better but the major problems that have plagued it from day one have YET to be fixed. Face it they cannot fix such problems as the "Red/Blue" bug anyway. Do you think it might be better to just have it to where when you put your crosshairs on an enemy no name shows up? I think that is better anyway. I mean what good is the fugging ghillie suit when you scan your crosshairs across a tree line and a red name appears but you cant really make out their position? Do I think I have gotten my monies worth out of the game? Maybe.....But this game was bought flawed from the begining and that WE all deserve a "suitable" finished product. I feel for the most part the public was lied to about ingame content. And then we are getting content now that most of us dont really want at all. We just want to know that we can play this game and only get ****ed at the guy on the other end who pulls off some miraculous shiznit.

Haha....that's so funny. I hate that also. I really hate that. I'm thinking "dammit! I'm on relatively level ground...why are you moving...and where is that damn parking break!"

Yes....very frustrating.

Apparently dropping a car on artillery will...when fired, blow up the artillery. Nice patch.
