Have they fixed the career site exploit? trying to buy a few new weapons and no joy.

Tried a good few games of rush, not bad, but not great either.

Nearly every game consisted of at least twelve hill camping snipers and everyone else in vehicles. I think every round I played bar one ended because the ten minute timer ran out.

Also, why did don't enemies appear on the minimap when firing anymore ? Between that, the spotting nerf and the sound problems (maybe a bug, but at the minute enemy units seem to make no or very little noise when moving around), the whole experience is pretty frustrating.

I'd consider it levelution, not on par with the shanghai building but having the same mechanic and effect. Destroy structural elements and change an area of the map.

In this case it locks off the sniper mountain between F and G making them no longer accessible so it has the same sort of effect as the shanghai tower, removing a key sniper point from the game.

i suppose it would be some sort of it, and it's a nice edition that it cuts off that sniper haven alright, lets just hope the servers are better tonight.

Coming across some serious hitreg issues today.

Bullets just bounce off planes from other planes or not hitting at all. wtf is with the plane hit box?
Horse melee was doing nothing at all. Zero damage done.
Kbullets not doing damage to tanks.

Also still annoying the pi$$ out of me that its just sniperfield.

I wonder if they're updating the code on the fly based on the data the beta is throwing up.

It does that when it cant connect to the online servers, It usally maximizes again after a few mins with the offline error. The servers are still hit and miss after the server attack

Are you using the m1907 Auto Medic weapon. That thing has nasty hit detection.

Haven't had any problems on pc tonight working well. I think the desert map was always going to be snipers paradise it should be alot more varied with more maps.

Question I absolutely love the Russian 1865 rifleman gun you get with the horse so I thought I'd be able unlock it but I'm on level 6 now and it should unlock at 3? Can we not unlock stuff on the beta version until it's the full game?

there is some trick to doing it thats not clear from that video. I have pounded that bridge with tank shells, tnt, anti tank airplane shells and from the cannon at D, nothing brings that ****er down. So like the tower in shanghai there must be specific spots you need to destroy.

Also guys for anyone wanting to unlock everything during beta, you might want to watch this for now:

Don't think I have been revived one single time playing this beta.

It was mostly medic yea but can't remember which one. Could have been it. Not sure.

It's difficult to see if people can be revived or not. I often find myself running around trying to revive and not being able to. Then trying on something I'm sure will not work - and it does

That alerting nearest medic thing is cool and the way it tells you how far away they are.

12m, 10m, 8m, wow I'm actually going to be revived, 4m, 2m, 4m, 6m, 8m, c*nt

So I've had a few memory leaks. Seems to be an issue that others are seeing.
Anyone here?

Don't think people realise that you have to request to be revived as well. When you die it will say how far a medic is away from you when you request to be revived. I was on top of a building with 3 other medics and not one would revive. Too busy gangster pointing there side arms retardedness!
