I just found out that BF2 won't include a lean function. I mean bunny hopping is bad enough but without being able to lean around corners this game will be no better than counterstrike or *gulp* quake.

Pleaseeeeeeeeee tell me you guys are already working on adding a lean function to the game.
OMG please!!!! :cry:

I agree with you 100%. Leaning was the feature i was hoping for since the moment i heard there would be a bf2. Also just a side note, i think they took out those terrorist looking fighters and replaced them with different skins. Can anyone confirm this?
:twisted:

I believe they did indeed took out the rag dressings or whatever they are called for arghhhh "political" reasons. :roll:

Hey insurgency developers: can you please ask dice or whomever to leave in some lean functions or ask them about the code necessary for it?
Alot of people would appreciate that. Thanks. :)

The 'rag-tag' look for the MEC soldiers was probably removed because DICE realized that a coalition of the most wealthy and powerful Middle-Eastern countries would have the means to provide their armed forces with actual military equipment, rather than civilian-style clothing.

By the way, these are the Project Reality forums. :wink:

Oh my freakin gawd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o ops: :o ops: :o ops:

Indeed am I so humbly embarassed. Excuse the confusion. But I am closely monitoring the progress of BOTH mods. LOL. I really am into realistic military squad based first person shooters.

Again, please forgive the mistake and please talk to the PROJECT REALITY developers....lol.....and ask them to talk to DICE about this. I am assuming also that they (project reality staff) are reading this post and have probably already considered the content of this discussion.

I'd like to see a change in the so called "bunny-hop" it looks way to goofy, and I am one to think it makes bf2 look worse than bf42. I want to see the height of the jump reduced at least....as far as the lean function goes, i think its only useful in America's Army as you know that a few shots(1-2) WILL KILL YOU unlike previous versions of BF.

i think in order to incorporate lean u have to have the SDK...not so sure u can do it with the BF2 editor...

if lean is added the lean shoot not be like raven shield a complet tilt of the whole body it should be what it is a "lean" just to peak a little bit around the corner

no.. ding dong you miss understood me...in rvs you complete do a hip replacement the lean is like totaly retarded it shouldnt be a bend on the body at 90 degrees it should just be used to peek the corner and fire a few shots.

This is bringing something else up I need to ask:

Has the BF2 developers released an SDK? Or do they plan to release one? And how about the bf2 game editor?
Can we even integrate lean functions or other stuff at this time? I mean....all the major bf2 mod makers...do they already have a SDK?

No SDK as of yet, but there will be mod tools.

is it true that unofficially the SDK for BF1942 was leaked out...? and if yes...do u reckon something similar might happen with BF2..?

According to requiem it won't be possible. He responded to this same topic I started over at totalbf2.com:

http://forums.totalbf2.com/showthread.php?t=1645

How come there isn't a response on this forum about the very same thing? So you guys are saying it WON'T be possible? Does it depend on modders getting access to an SDK? What is really going on here?? :(

Cause frankly if a lean isn't put in and I suspect other things adjusted....then I can't see how you can call this a project "reality" mod. :cry:

I'm extremely worried now.

You've been around for only 6-days and you're already acting like PR is doomed to fail, or something. :P

I suggest you stop worrying and let everything take its course.
