New patch 1.2 Video!

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

The whole idea of taking down a plane is another plane.. not some guy in the dpv.. on another note does anyone think that the at rockets seem to go faster?

I thought I noticed that as well. That or the guy on the video is amazing at aiming AT missiles. I can count the ammount of times I've landed an AT missile on an attack chopper on both of my hands.

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

Well I for one am glad that a tank can finally take down a chopper with 1 shot. It was IMHO getting a little stupid when I'd hit it twice only for it to fly off and repair.

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

They should bring back blackhawk capping or additional persons in the vehicle counting towards a cap, with the nerfs and all it wouldn't be a problem anymore.

I mean are you going to sit around and take the chance that you'll cap before getting shot down or having your vehicle destroyed?

looks like they've given more arc and distance to throws, odd that it looked like he jumped just before tossing the c4 though.

I'd really like to know if planes have been fixed with regards to working AA.

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

The choppers will be fine. It makes more sense one tank round takes out a chopper, and harkening back to Desert Combat, the choppers apear in 1.2 patch to still be more powerful than they were in Desert Combat. And in DC choppers were still fun and powerful to use. Also, two AT rounds are fair enough to take down a chopper, it's hard as it is to even land one AT round on a chopper. (Do you DC guys remember, it took one stinger maybe two stingers to take down a chopper, and those stingers were easy to aim with)

Again, this was an ALPHA playtest. It was done to see the effect of current tweaks. Most of the items in this video have already been changed in later (nonpublic) revisions of the 1.2 patch. Its not done, until it is everything is subject to change.

:yay:

Good news. I can assume that this is why the Euro Force booster has been delayed, because the patch is requiring some more work? I don't expect you to answer that of course, thinking out loud

Cheers for the info Demize99.

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

You know, it wouldnt surprise me to learn that either these videos are VERY old, or they're being released to test public reaction (outbursts).

I mean come on, there are now what, 2 other threads where someones seen this video and gone off the rails about the helicopter being TOO weak? It's also been said in this thread too.

On a side note, this is something I'd do.. what better way to test if something suits the public than to give them tastes of whats to come. After all, they're only doing these nerfs BECAUSE the public was bitching in the first place!

Theres no way we'd ever accept the helos being THAT weak.. it takes more time to destroy an FAV than the 3 or so seconds it took to blow that chopper away. Either that, or they'll probably reduce FAV 50.cal damage, such as to retain the 1s1k tank shell effect.

rant rant rant.

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

Will people stop whining about the choppers or something...
Because The player is making the difference on the battlefield

People say nerf the Black Hawk
is it not easier to go with two anti-tank kits and suprise it, and shoot it down....

MOst people complaining but never come with a solution :evil:

This is of the many reseaons I play in clan because you know they have the brains for teamwork if a black hawk is raping...

being in a clan doesnt make you any more or less smart then anyone else ..

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

Yes I do because if the black hawk is raping,
marjority of the player just spwan spec-ops or something stupid but no anti-tank
and try to run away. but there are freaking humvee's tanks.......
to shoot it down easy

It is so easy, to stop raping.....
but the only thing what they have to do is play like a team and by a little smart.


Because I wait the blackhawk gunner is pointing is gun the other way and I just shoot a rocket in the BH, there will be 50% change the engineers will fall or the gunner :laugh:

Re: New patch 1.2 Video!

The only thing I have to say to Demize and the rest of the guys at DICE, is:

"Fix the game before you add things to it"

Who cares about visible UAV? Do you think players in 1.12 are looking up in the sky thinking "why cant I see the predator plane? I want to be able to shoot it down. This game sucks because I cant see the UAV!"

No they are cursing things like "Why is it every other time I connect to a server my rank vanishes and I cant use my unlocks?" or "We are 5 patches and almost 9 months into this game and I still see friendlies with red name tags, why cant they fix it" or "Why is the performance in this SF expansion so dismal?" and "Why are there so many sound bugs in SF" or "whats the point in still having this TK punish system if absolutely NO ONE uses it for its intended purpose - intentional TKs." or "why do all the servers crash every 5 or 6 maps regardless of server executable" or "why doesnt BF2 make use of multi threading or any simds like most other games of late?" or "why is it when friendlies get out of a vehicle it shows up as an enemy target on my plane bombing hud which I will invariably bomb and get multiple TKs for?" or "why is this server browser still useless?" or "why does this minimap keep jumping scale if I spot enemy or whenever it feels like" or "why does this 70 ton jet-propelled Battle Tank take damage if i drive it over a street curb?" or "why are all the spawn points and map system for commanders totally screwed in Zatar Wetlands?" or "the transport helo I'm flying just got rammed by an idiot in a plane and I still get 5 teamkills (and invariably 5 punishes)" etc etc the list goes on and on and on.

Amazing the amount of threads in this forum from people who want stuff added to the game. Only today someone asked for the ability to tag walls with paint cans.

"Why is it every other time I connect to a server my rank vanishes and I cant use my unlocks?"

Never hapened to me but it's when the server loses contact with the Gamespy server.

"We are 5 patches and almost 9 months into this game and I still see friendlies with red name tags, why cant they fix it"

They are trying you know. If it was simple it'd be done. They don't sem to be able to figure it out, even with community support and remains their #1 bug.

"why do all the servers crash every 5 or 6 maps regardless of server executable"

Seen it the odd time but every 5 or 6 maps?

"why is this server browser still useless?"

Fixed in 1.2

"why does this minimap keep jumping scale if I spot enemy or whenever it feels like"

It changes when you move from being on foot to a tank to a jeep to a jet. It was one of the requested features from the community for the 1.03 patch. Didn't know it moved when you spotted things?

"why does this 70 ton jet-propelled Tank take damage if i drive it over a street curb?"

Fixed in 1.2 patch

The thought had crossed my mind too, that these videos were being leaked on purpose. Wouldn't surprise me at all, it is a good way to gauge community reaction on a lot of the issues being revised.

Also to back up this theory, whether they are leaked on purpose or not, it is helping DICE. Like Demize99 said, a lot of the DICE guys read these forums, even if they don't post. I just hope that this is a lesson learned, that being more open and interactive with the community can be a great thing.
