Know issues with the Beta .6

Optimization
Since this mod is a work in progress, some optimizations have been made to the models for performance. You might experience a slight slowdown due to the fact that we haven�t done a full optimization pass yet.

Balancing
Currently the game feels balanced, but some things may destroy objects faster then they should, the game will continually balance out as the mod progresses. This goes for speed of vehicles, weapon damage and amount of ammo.

Maps
Only maps that display a small DC logo in them have DC vehicles. This is only temporary until new maps are created. Some new DC maps do not support single player yet, coming soon.
If you find any bugs, please send them to [email protected]

I don't care what anyone says, BF1942 is a awesome idea, but the gaming engine they used fucking blows goats ass. That's the third game in a row EA games has fubar'd.

2003-12-20, 07:03 PM
I like CS, since I've found a group of non-noobs to hang around with.

Anyways, haven't played too much of .6, but that Urban Siege map is too much like the Village map, and a lot like an extension of Al Kafji (or whatever) Docks.

im dling 0.6, i am the master with anything air, except with helos where im mediocre, but in an f15 i will shoot u down,

DC is the second most played game ever, next to CS.

slytiger
2003-12-20, 07:40 PM
Ive almost perfected the fighters and now with the smaller helos im gonna keep using them instead of the bh or apache. I love the littlebirds and gazelles, and they are so small and fast that its so fun. But just fyi, beware of the stingers while in the small helos.

2003-12-20, 10:53 PM
WOW! guess what... EVERYONE THINKS THEY ARE A PRO PILOT!

Secondly DoD is much better than CS.

And thirdly to get rid of all you plane campers on the new air craft carrier I will run you down with the forklift! :twisted:

Fragmatic
2003-12-20, 11:08 PM
MP5 has been replaced by a camo m4 with silencer and a scope :) better than the mp5

I like the MP5 tho. :( wish they'd make another class. silenced MP5 would rock.

they also changed some pistols so theyre silenced now

I d/l the demo of bf1942, but everything was blue or black, it was like i didn't have 3D graphics or something. I got into a half-track looking thing, and went into some black water or some shit

Yep, my current favourite FPS and 2nd favouritte game for playing now. One problem, I can't stand the CAR-15 being silenced(problem since .5). I loved the renders of it without the silencer and it seems better without it, but the VSS is great. The new maps are great, especialy Urban Siege.

Urban seige is great for playing hide and go seek too, me and my clanmates practice it, one team can't use vehicles or attack and has to make it to the other base and cap it, the seekers can use helis' tanks , anything, hiders can't respawn. It's hard, but fun
