It's amazing how they dropped the ball on getting this on Steam. I had my money ready and everything, and it's still not out.

Haha! I completely forgot about this. I wonder what happened?
I remember this game, it's really fun when you have a good team. I feel like I'm doing some extreme tactical shit when it does happen.
If only the tactical gamer server was still up.
I used to fucking rape when leading a squad. Using the air transports as mobile battle fortresses was fucking class. Loadout was 1 assault medic manning one of the side guns, Support as pilot with IDS strapped on the back, then on the sides, AA engies, one with PDS and mines, the other one with the magnetic grenades and mines, the third with one of the AT weapons with mines and whatever other equipment they want.
Functions as a self-repairing Anti-air, anti-armour, anti-infantry gunship/bomber. Somebody gets shot, the medic automatically heals them, the transport gets damaged, engies look straight down and repair while the pilot does evasive manoevres, and as people are firing they're constantly resupplied. The vehicle ALWAYS has anti-infantry capability in the assault medic on the gun (Which is the second-best protected position in the craft), and nobody runs out of ammo because the support auto resupplies. The IDS and PDS reveal enemy vehicles and infantry in close proximity. And if somebody in the transport dies? They respawn in 15 seconds. If there are vehicles below everybody can spam mines, if an enemy gunship comes along you have the two AA engies to fire 4 missiles at it, and only if they're a good pilot will they evade it. If for some reason the pilot flies too low or lands and there are enemy mines, engies have that sorted.
If you can get a 7th guy on board also as support (he'd need to be on teamspeak or something) he can provide EMP and additional anti-infantry capability if he has the Ganz, the RDX shotgun is also helpful in this capacity. He can drop supplies to friendlies down below if needed, as well as a sentry gun in the middle of a group of enemy infantry if he has it. He could also replace the IDS if it gets shot off although if placed correctly this is an unlikely event.
Get coordination with a good crew and you'll be invincible, and the most potent asset in the game.
I'd love to do this with some facepunch members so pm me and we will organise this. We'll use a room on the official teamspeak server. My Ingame name is ZeroG_181. I call dibs on the pilot because I know what I'm doing.
AA engies would be on the right hand side of the aircraft, AT and the gunner on the left. Need you all to have all the unlocks for your respective class (NS unlocks not mandatory).
Is this game just as bad with hit detection as BF2 or have they improved it in 2142?
The hit detection seems fine if you ask me, I've never had trouble hitting anything. Just use single fire or fire in short bursts.
I need to reinstall SOOOOOOOOO BAD
What a coincidence, joined a server and there was a squad doing exactly the same thing. We did a round with 0 deaths between me and the pilot/sl because we are so pro. The only difference between what he did and what I usually do is that he was having the squad bail out to capture silos, although I stayed on board the entire time to repair and defend the aircraft. Usually I'd have it in the air constantly, never landing due to risk of being taken out by enemy infantry and armour.
I feel like installing, but I haven't played in ages so I will most likely suck horribly
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Fuck it I'm installing it anyway, my team shall fear the day I joined the server!
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Do I install 1.51 beta or 1.50?
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
I'll stick with 1.50 for now.
Nobody's playing 1.50 as far as I know. The 1.51 file everyone uses was pretty difficult to find.
Is the beta stable?
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
I've had bad experienecs with Dice's beta patches
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Why the fuck don't they have the patch on their own website?
That's so fucking annoying
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Sites that offer the 2gb sized download caps you at 200kb/s if you don't pay O_o
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Found a torrent
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
The guy who uploaded the torrent does not seem to like the patch.
[quote]Warning: This patch is HORRIBLE.
Stick with 1.50 as long as you can while there are still servers.
- Servers are now laggy all the time.
- Massive Server CPU and memory spikes
- A, D, SPACE keys and mouse will cut out randomly
360 degree snapping.
- Framerate drops down into the single digits.
- Strike at Karkand is covered in invisible walls and ceilings that will trap you or prevent you from moving properly.
- System freezups and CTD is common.
- Servers are still crashy
- Wrong version kicks when attempting to join some servers.
- Enemy/friendly tags getting mixed up and Enemies even being shown as squad members.
+ many more that are appearing almost daily.
Congratulations EA and DICE. once again you have managed to
pump out yet another patch that created more problems then they solve.[/quote]
[editline]29th April 2011[/editline]
Oh well while it downloads, do you have any good servers Morbo?
I've not had any of those problems save the possibility of the lag, although that was the server I was on as far as I know. There are only about 20 servers but some of them are always populated.
1.50 also has like 20-30 servers with 6 or so populated by the way
Apparently TG does have a server on 2142. You just need to deselect all the filter options. Need to see if it's populated though. Apparently it is on Friday and Saturdays.
Fuck yes, I love this game.

I'll be sure to check in on it tonight

Played Strike at Karkand, is it supposed to be all gray textured? It felt wrong
Played strike at Karkand as well.

Here's a guy helping me move up to that corner at the end, where I then fired on the guys that were shooting us with my RDX Shotgun (only a bonus unlock). It was pretty cool, although we both died :v:
[media]http://i.cubeupload.com/QXv1Nc.jpg[/media]
This was the best sniping spot ever, I literally only had one sniper try and shoot me from here.
I later ran out out of ammo for my Zeller, so I went down to ground level and then shot a support guy with my pistol and switched kits so I could get ammo (it was really funny, I climbed up on the roof he was on, failed to knife him, he started to jump around like crazy, turns towards me and jumps back and I switch to my pistol and shoot him dead just before he fell off the roof :v:). I then went back into our own territory because they got behind us and capped our rear points. I saw a guy shooting from a train thingy and I couldn't shoot him because of an invisible wall, so I ran up to him and shot him from three feet in the head. Then I got killed by a Voss L-AR soldier.
In a span of a few minutes, I got two combat efficiency pins, one distinguished combat pin and one infiltrator pin :buddy:
So, is anyone interested in the aerial fortress pubstomp?
So Karkand is supposed to be totally gray? That sucks
[QUOTE=TurbisV2;29521180]So Karkand is supposed to be totally gray? That sucks[/QUOTE]
Nearly every winter map is gray, and it's awesome.
Yeah but karkand looks like they just took every texture and made them grayscale
I wouldn't know about that, but the grass is also gray so... :v:
Alright some of us are gonna do a match tonight on 1.51
