PR:BF2 v1.4.5.0 Changelog

[LiamBai]

Laser of commander unstable:
- laser disappears before the mark (laser 48s - mark 80s).
- Sometimes it appears only the mark without the laser.
- Sometimes the mark and the laser do not appear.

This is how it was before if I'm not mistaken. There's a cooldown on the laze, and the marker lasts the length of the cooldown.

COOP:

• Fixed players being able to use AI-only vehicles.

This sucks too much.

[Rabbit]

Please, anyone confirm improvements with LOD switching set to off. I'm unable to play in the next couple of days.

It does for me at least on urban map, also have 4 gigs of vram.

Marker lasts the duration of the laze, not the cooldown.

Lots of good changes, but why are we getting rid of 2 Canadian layers? We have plenty of US only maps between the USMC and US Army (not to mention the sheer amount of times all of us have played as the US), why get rid of Canadian vehicle variation and add even more US layers? Could we at least add Canada to some alternate layers of US maps as well then?

EDIT: Canada now has a grand total of 6 layers of variation compared to around 34 layers of US variation for US spread through their maps. (also added 2 infront of Canadian layers)

The only layer that US replace Canada is on INS32 on archer, INS64 is still Canadian. Most maps with USMC/USARMY on them have a layer with Canada on it if it makes sense.

[Reamz]

Thanks for all you do devs. Will we be seeing an updated US Army faction with M4A1's at any point?

Also replacing a Yamalia ALT layer with the US, getting rid of the Canadian APC layer. My point is that we have plenty variations on US equipment and vehicles on maps and really relatively few Canadian variations and layers. Also I mean there's pretty few places the US would go that it wouldn't make sense for Canada to go in a world war situation, no? I can understand the amphibious assault maps but why not Khami? Karbala?

Fallujah was a U.S. fight but if we're adding the U.S. to Operation Archer that was a big Canadian only operation then why not add a Canada layer to Fallujah?

Yeah Im all for more factions on maps. Large layers need to make a return. I think the biggest issue is actually creating the layers and stuff.

Operation archer was the name of the overall contribution by Canada to the war in Afghanistan wasn't it? Just like Herrick, Slipper, Enduring freedom etc etc.
If it was an actual Canadian only battle i could understand but it's just a fictional map (with an admittedly quite stupid name) set in Kandahar, which doesn't really exclude us from putting a US faction on it.

[Yrkidding]

Correct in the sense that Operation Archer was the name for the Canadian contribution in Afghanistan and Kandahar was the Canadian area of operation. I still don't really think the U.S. infantry would be involved, no?

Great with the MG3 update, it will reduce lone wolfing with that Beast....but still.

i think all deployed AR's should be and only deployed and used on prone... srsly who can put bipod in the Air and shoot 100% full accuracy with no recoil ! anyway still good update and makes it more "realistic"

btw what is that LOD thingy, does it give more FPS ? or make Graphics and maps look better ?

also a question for those who have GPU's with 1GB VRAM, does that mean those guys will have FPS issues... ?

anyway great work and keep it up...

[Jonesick]

[*]Fixed players being able to use AI-only vehicles.

There were absolutely no reason to do this. Coop armour was a great way to have fun slaughtering bots. Now its useless.

A prone only deployed mode can be found in FH2 and it sucks.

Unlike FH2 PR does have alot of buildings and surfaces you'd be able to rest your weapon on "realistically", windows, crates, you name it, but the game can't detect these the way a modern engine is able to, and even if it could, I doubt it would be able to react to these. So the silly airbourne bipod deployment is the best possible workaround available.

PS: 5.56mm LMGs that are resting on a bipod don't have a lot of kick to them.

Yes, but I thought that this instability would be corrected

[Rezza]

Great to see more updates. It's very vital to keeping PR active and alive. Thanks a lot to the all the devs and contributers!

[MOSES!]

archer would be find without the mortars though

[QuickLoad]

but if there's no boragh for bamyan, where will we see it?

well there not much we can say about it since it's an Old Engine but still im not against the air bipod, u know it's just an opinion on how "Realistic" the AR gonna be in PR....

and still can be fired from hip so ya...
