1.50 Ideas

Re: 1.50 Ideas

There might actually be a safe kit fix!

I ripped this of my clan's forum:

start 2142, enter a server, set up every kit the way you like it for both teams

make sure you spawn in as each class on each team at least once - that's 8 suicides if you're keeping count (easiest to do all this on an empty server)

then alt-tab and go to My Documents\Battlefield 2142\Profiles\0001

copy Profile.con and make the original read-only

now it should work forever. you have to alt-tab because if you quit the game it will overwrite all your settings with junk. the key is to save it while you're still in the server. i did this a few months ago and my settings have all been perfect ever since.

this will stop working temporarily if you switch accounts without restarting 2142. and it seems to only read the file when you first start the game, so if you change your gear it will stay changed until you quit 2142.

Btw, 2142 Sharqi would be a great map!

Re: 1.50 Ideas

How many people know how long it takes to build soldiers/weapons/vehicles etc from scratch? well I can tell you you dont do it in one day. It can take up to 2 months to just create a base for a vehicle and another month to polish it and create a wreck model for it.

Anyway I dont really care about a new vehicle maybe a few extra weapons that you can pick up as a pickup kit might work though.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

Everybody else's parachute in the whole game works but yours!

I hope they bring in the new map which it a more infantry based than the others. Possibly even some new weapons instead of new vehicles would be nice.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

:) A Parachute that works would be good,:yay:

Re: 1.50 Ideas

Hmmm. I wonder if the new content will be coming along with the patch or as an expansion pack?

They call it 1.50. I'd guess thats a patch.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

Fix the auto kit setup and bring back pod surfing.

No pod-surfing + team of numpties = ALT+F4.

I predict that we will finally see the North American content in 2142. IDK anything, and I'm only speculating that.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

I'd love maybe an extra team and improved graphics and other stuff. The game looked cooler in the alpha version.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

any bets on whether they fix the custom kit save? i actually think they might fix this bug.

Aw! Man! Don't let me get my hopes up!

Re: 1.50 Ideas

No, its not. Seriously, there is no point in denying that you don't die when your gun gets destroyed.

This is not completly accurate, It is very rare but I have died 2 or 3 times when I was in a titan gun...without the core blowing.

Well I didn´t read the above post, but Unzen says the same thing.

Re: 1.50 Ideas

No, its not. Seriously, there is no point in denying that you don't die when your gun gets destroyed. I have been playing this game for a year and a half, never once has someone died when their gun blew up. I am sorry about being so harsh, but being stubborn about an issue that has been set in stone for 18 months is not very... Bright.

Actually, that's questionable. I've been a turret wh0re for a while and I've had it a few times where I've been at the turret console and suddenly it says "You have been killed" mid-round as the turret has gone bang.

I've had the obvious plebs on FF-on servers who like nothing more than to knife you in your own hangar, but this is where the actual turret gets destoyed.... and you with it.

I don't think its a feature, far more likely to be a glitch where a certain set of circumstances occur for you to actually die at the controls of a turret. It's is rare - I'll say that, very rare indeed. But it does leave you sat at the PC with most confused "WTF?" expression on your face. :)

well then, maybe i didnt actually die, but it counted as a death in your stats then?

Re: 1.50 Ideas

then how did i die 17 times, b/c i am never in a titan gun while my ship is being invaded. i am always inside, trying to kill the intruders!:salute:
the only plausible explanation is that you "die" when your gun is destroyed while you are using it. :nod:
