Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

[Spawndemon]

The Eve of Destruction 2 mod team is back today to discuss their upcoming patch. Here's what they had to say:

Patch has been sorted out. It is currently in the test phase. We've listened to the community in regards to their concerns with certain classes of soldiers within EoD. We have strived to take into consideration both sides of the argument. The biggest complaint has been in regards to the Sniper Kit class.

First, We have not employed kit limiting with this patch, nor employed pickup kits for the Sniper Classes. We may consider these options further, but to do these two options will require more time to implement. We will have to create the pickup kits or incorporate new coding. We feel that a patch is needed now to address these issues.

Therefore, here are some of the things you will see in the upcoming v1.1 patch. Some people will like these changes and I am sure there will be some that do not. Read more...

Be sure to visit their website for a complete list of changes in this upcoming patch.

oh so mature..

anyways this is why i dropped PR i didnt like the limiting system if people dont like snipers workout where they are and hunt them its not hard.

if people like the limiting system go play a mod that has it, i dont see why other mods should incorperate it if it wasnt in their initial plan.

Re: Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

Personally, I see waaaay more medics than snipers because they can self-heal. I think that is the biggest change that needs to happen. At least then it would require people to work together to stay alive, instead of Rambo-medics, even without grenades with the patch.

I'm not crying so kiss my ***, I don't even use the sniper that much... but I do know all the losers crying about nerfing the classes is bullshiet, just because you can't play worth a damn means the devs should have to change things around to make you happy? pfffff

The game is fine the way it is, learn to play and maybe you'll do better.... don't cry about to many nades, the snipers keep killing me, bla bla bla.

All you guys are doing is trying to make it another BF2 nerf fest and its pathetic.

Re: Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

The limiting system only adds to realizim(can't spell). My fire squad consists of a corpsman, three scouts, marksman (carries a modified M15A4, not a nice big M41), me, then the Squad leader. If the military could afford 40 snipers at one place at one time, we wouldn't be in Iraq right now.

Re: Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

Guys, we are not kit limiting. Just kit reorganizing and weapons tweaking. Nothing has been "Nerfed". The sniper rifles still hit the same in damage. What has changed is deviation and some other small tweaks.

If all 64 people on a server want to be a sniper. They will be able to be a sniper. We are just experimenting with the kit class to see how it turns out. Those that REALLY want to hang back someplace and snipe will be snipers. Restructuring the kit will somewhat determine how the person uses the kit.

Those that just liked to use the sniper rifles because they work as well as assault rifles up close and the kit offers as much or more than an assault or rifleman class, might think twice about selecting the sniper kit.

Right now, people use the kit more like assualt weapons than snipers. Then you get two or three people sniping and next thing you know, you have 4 or 5 on the other team counter sniping. This makes the other team get more snipers and now you get all kinds of people sniping and then assaulting flags with grenades and sniper rifles.

This is not what we intended the mod to be. We were not looking for a "Sniper Mod".

Re: Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

and then assaulting flags with grenades and sniper rifles.

And mortars xD

But i cant say, that the snipers are play like an assault. The rifles are too accurate and too deadly (1 shot in a finger and you got killed). With all other weapons you need several hits. And this is the cause, why there are so many snipers pointing at your spawnpoint. And that isn't funny. But with less assholes on the servers, you wont have such problems even when the weapons are so deadly.

So keep up your good work. I cant wait for the next version

not likely, my style of play is similar to how i play BF2,

i dont nade spam in BF2 because its just sad and theirs no skill involved so i dont see why i would do that in a mod.

I've played it enough to know that it is not what I had envisioned for the mod to degenerate into a sniper rifle battle. The mortars, I am happy that people have taken to them like fish in water. They too, need some tweaking.. Not in damage, but just sounds and fire rate.

The changes we are implementing are to benefit the entire community. I know some might not like the changes in the sniper kit. Others will. We cannot please everyone. The only thing we can do is try to find a balance that everyone is agreeable to.

Re: Eve of Destruction 2 Mod Update

I havent played eve of destruction since the bf1942 version and the thing that i saw in the bf2 version is that the most people dont follow the server rules at all,i had people spawncamping,fixed base raping (you might say that countersniping a guy works,but if you get shot just after a second you spawn its doesnt work).Anyone knows a good server with mature guys playing all the time?

The first thing i saw that the sniper rifles where too accurate,if it has the same accuracy as the ones in BF2 its lots better,i shot 2 guys in 2 seconds once,i have never done that in bf2,there you have to hold your rifle steady for a sec to make the kill...

But what i missed in the current maps,where are the big maps like the good old bf1942 eod ones,big chopper maps i missed...like charlie dont surf,i wonder if there are gonna be maps like the classics gonna be converted to this version,the current maps i dont even get the feeling i am in vietnam...:|:
