yep, we got some time ago

you would be suprised at how much feedback the modding community is getting from EA for BF2, we are really excited about where this close partnership will allow us to take out product, you should be too

Thats intense.

I just hope they dont screw it up like JO.

Post by **DrZero** » 2004-09-05 02:34

JO wasnt screwed up.
just, the idea for the game wasnt implemented properly.

what do u mean...?

Post by **DrZero** » 2004-09-06 07:22

Well, they did a good job, it just didnt work for their game idea

do you recon it's because it's too arcade...?
Personally I play JO until BF2 comes out and give it a go or Close Combat-first to fight...I've been playing NOVA games since BHD...
I think it's very well designed...net code for the ammount of people on the servers not too bad...but just too arcade....

I tried the demo, didnt look that great(radeon 9800 pro). And there were so many damn controls, and seeing as I always change my controls so that they center around the arrow keys, it was a pain in the ***. I prefer BF, looks good, simple, and plenty of stuff to do.

I didn't like it because it was arcase but they were trying to make it realistic like the 2 miles you have to go to get to you obyjective.

Same here, i had a 9800 and it looked crappy on the demo. The heli controls were WAY to easy to fly, hopefully they fixed that. The whole walk 3-4 miles to get to a point really messed it up too.

yes I hated the helo's in JO...you could get out of one and it would still be hovering

so in essence you could fly it over a tgt and use it as a sniping platform until it powered down.

I agree, my best efforts to crashing a blackhawk failed miserably, you cannot roll it, you cannot jump into the gunners seat and fall to your death, I even tried flying it as high as it would go and jumping out, yet i died and the helo was lying on the ground. I finally succeded by flying a CH4-7D chinook into it.

lol...personally don't mind about the glitches or all these things...but I do mind about the arcade speed...very fust runners...very accurate weapons...minimum recoil...doesn't add to tactical gameplay...

Post by **DrZero** » 2004-09-09 05:54

the best way to crash blackhawks is to crash them into stuff, but even that is difficult

PunkRockerDave · Post by **PunkRockerDave** » 2004-09-09 09:19

hmm...now that I think about it...it might be kinda fun to get a bunch of people in a BH and see who can get the best dive!

I tried it all the time on Lost Village but the fall inst survivable, its an instant kill

Tomcat · Post by **Tomcat** » 2004-09-09 17:34

lost village....? first time I here this map...u fancy making a reality mod for JO...just something to do with ur time while waiting for BF2 to come out...

..just kidding...

Lost Village is a DC map, as you may or may not be aware, the core mod team is primarily made up of people from DC forums, myself included. we all play/played DC
