Warhawk v1.2 Patch

The 1.1 was prematurely released for some reason. Just go to saved game utility, and delete the warhawk file. Then start up the game and reinstall it. It should be back to 1.0 without asking to install 1.1

@Dylan- Love the game, never played a multiplayer online before, and not really any other FPS either, but I really enjoy this- I die alot, and because my rank is wacky I am playing way above my skill, but every kill is still joyful.

2 Suggestions- as an older player, my eyesight is not that of the youngins. I have trouble seeing what ## is in a zone, when I expand the map, and also distingusiging between red and blue in that small little dot. (playing on a 57″ screen from 12-14 feet). Giving the players an option for slightly larger text and icons, as well as being able to change the team colors, at least in map representations would be very helpful.

Next, as someone above said- putting a small (please not 1 pixel) dot or crosshair in the reticle of a snipe rifle would be very helpful, it would probably mean a lot more snipe kills, but the single pixel black crosshairs are often invisible if someone is in the bush or under shadow. If the enemy is already not very visible, do we have to have invisible crosshairs as well?

And thirdly, for an option in CTF, why not play with a feature that as a flag returns to base (after a capture), that it emits a pulse which kills any organism within a few hundred feet inside the base. Often, if you have one team very much outmatched, it can get crazy with the enemy veterans in the base as the flag returns, and the team which just lost a point gets their flag taken again within milliseconds.

Again- great game and I look forward to the patches.

I personally am not a fan of the minimap because it rotates and i lose my way easily on many maps. could you guys consider adding an option to make the unexpanded mini-map not rotate just like the fully expanded map? maybe for patch 1.2 since patch 1.1 would probably be too early.

btw… could you guys make gun turrets more powerful… I feel that it is like a stationary rifle… I think it needs to be a little more powerful… I hate it when i am on a jeep and shoot a warhawk for 2 mins and it barely does any damage

Im not sure if its been said before (too many posts to read) but it would be a very good idea to be able to have a private chat while in game with a selected party ie friend, clan member, chosen party. A lot of times there are people just having what appears to be a private conversation while in game and everyone else gets stuck listening to their nonsense. Plus there are some guys out there who do nothing but use foul language. Now I am no saint but when all u say is the F word every 2 seconds and how much everybody else sucks….now that should be grounds for being banned….plus it would be fun to coordinate strategies with ur selected party only.

No word on teamkill fix? I played last weekend with someone who scored over 150 in the Negative column. He did nothing but kill teammates and flag carriers in a Warhawk. Somehow he found a way around the 5 kill limit. Perhaps it has something to do with vehicles?

Even if teamkilling is fixed it won’t stop griefers. A team majority should be enough to kick any player and will solve a lot of current complaints. We won’t have to wait for patches if the community can handle these problems as they occur.

thx

Will the “Added new server full/open filter” fix the problem where you try to join a server that is not full only to discover that it is full? It happens to me every time I try to join a game. It shows, for example, 28/32 but the tells me unable to join because the game is full. I can always tell that it will give me this error because it takes a bit longer than times where it will succeed in connecting. At minimum, I wish there was a way to abort attempting to join a game after you realize that it isn’t going to let you in anyhow.

I think they should add more customization to the game play. Options to remove planes, tanks, jeeps, etc are missing. It would also be nice to customize the weapons available and their re-spawn times. It would be awesome to have sniper matches, without having to worry about a freaking plane finding you. CTF on foot, or deathmatch with rifles or other added weaponry. They should also provide the option to disable the map/HUD and play in complete stealth, like real life. Hopefully Jobe reads this!!!
