you're assuming it'll be BF1942 based. but even with that in mind, I'll hold off judgment until I see if the axis/allies balance is fixed in DC now.

My vote for DC is based on Axis balance being better and no major bugs/exploits for either team.

from what I've seen in .3m the balance is much much better, mind you, not perfect, but better than before.

Agreed............. .3 ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Axis team now has a bad ass chopper, and the new Jet is almost better than the A-10.

On the ground the teams are almost dead even....the new artillery piece for both teams is devastating, but I have yet to see the Scud in action.

The new classes are just downright bad ass......deployable mortars rock, and the Spec Ops and Axis suicide guy are awesome.

The AC-130 is a work of art.....with a full crew and someone who can fly, you can wipe out the axis guys as long as they don't get a plane/chopper off the ground The minute they get you targeted, you are a siting duck. If done right with some air cover, an organized team can lay the smack down!!!

All in all I give the new items a 9/10!

Yeah, it isn't polished blah blah blah......but DAMN IT IS FUN!!!!!! A full magnitude of 10x's funer than .25!!!!

Oh and did I mention the new maps???

73 Easting is a large desert map with armor only....no air support I could see....with a TON and I mean a T O N of heavy armor on fast spawns....I didn't get to play it online yet, but I bet the actions is freakin fast and furious if you can get 15-20 per team!

I can't wait to see what the DC team does next.....it just keeps geting better and better!

Brules

I vote StarCraft

The scud is INSANE. It will be a major target for the coalition to destroy quickly. With one decent shot you can take out 4-6 tanks &/or choppers and anybody near easily. It aimes up/down only, so you have to position the truck in the right direction first and then play with how far you shoot. It also has 2 modes of shooting, not sure what use the second one is yet... But it's mean.

I can't wait to play that all armor map. It looks sweet. and you're right, the mortar is freakin' cool. It's funny, I was playing in .3h and the mortar was almost infinite, so you could kill just dozens of ppl by just spamming the crap out of them with the mortar. Good thing is that they put a cap on the ammo supply for the mortar. But it's really fun too.

Has anyone tried the Scud in tandem with calling in artillery fire? Is it directed?

Brules

Yes, you can call for arty and use the scud. However, at least in .3m you have to be careful if you alt fire you'll blow yourself up, so you have to fire the scud and THEN alt fire to see the arty cam. It's pretty cool.

So can you steer it???? Esplain some more Lucy!

Brules

OH... directed like, steerable, NO. Sorry, just usable with called arty. Like I said before, you drive the truck to position L/R and then before you fire the scud you adjust up/down from the "gunner" position. & btw, this thing has no problem firing from Opp to Coal base on El Alamein. It has some serious range.

Geez sounds like its impossible to be accurate other than distance? I mean after EVERY shot you would need to adjust it left/right from the driver position and still keep your distance correct.....

BUT I can see that once you get it braketed...watch out cause some ppl gonna die.

BUT you could easily go thru all your rockets by the time you do that. You would need to park in a DESERTED location with an ammo box next to you to be effective.

Like one of those deserted outposts on the desert maps.....just pray some lost Apache doesn't find your ass!

Brules

This is very true. You'd be surprised how fast you can adjust your shot. My brother and I did it pretty quick with no major problems other than just getting the L/R down. And I'm tellin' you, it blows up everything. So sweet.

Shinobi wrote: why wouldn't it be BF1942 based? we had two Tournaments last month, so i figured we'd do two again this month. am i mistaken?

don't even k_os, you KNOW what that will lead to... the next game on the ladder is UT2003 and all you quakeheads will want DM, but who's that kid in the corner who plays UT2003 for hours on end on his OC48 connection between classes? who's that kid who gets 3 hat tricks in bombing run and makes everyone cry?... that's right, little ol' evisr8r, so before you even think about it, you need to ask yourself one question... "Do I feel lucky" because for the game to be balanced, it's gonna be u or shinobi as team captain, and I WILL PWN THE WORld.

let's play some BF, scope and psycho own my butthole in that game.
