Damn all of you and your metric system!

Tanks are side mission controlled no? And about the whole chopper thing. Yeah I knew about it, but didn't know that it was a big hush hush conspiracy secret. I mean, the chances of someone using a chopper at the AO and making it last long enough for another to respawn an hour later is pretty slim...let alone that happening twice! IMO, a great great map and scenario is starting to get butchered by the loss of apparent distinction between bugs/exploits/opinions. I promise lightspeed I am not directing this towards you at all. I just see the constant change of maps leading to burnout on Kal's part. I'm going back to work before IT calls me!

I've tried to get it to work before and it wouldnt work, but ill give it another whirl

Can I get my privs updated to player # 4080768 Finally added my tags

lol if you thought people using the apache to fire and forget was bad....

I've been playing the last few releases of ace2 and it looks...amazing... seriously all you Sim junkies should be doing a jig right now. I think the last time I played it we ended up fast roping on top of a tower from a little bird and taking out the engine of an UAZ that was attempting to flank our troops with an m109. If you haven't had a chance to get some time with ace2, i highly recommend it.

halli did you try any of the keys in the other BF2 thread? That is where I got mine from and it worked.

I've ben playing this too...anyone got tags they want to post up so I can add? mine is explorer0834

Honestly, you can find 5.1 speaker sets out there that will blow you away for that price. The speakers you have listed there are decent (200 watts). But, when i bought my computer about 2 years ago I picked up a set of logitech G51 5.1 speakers for about 150 bucks from newegg.

Ill help with the chopper portion if needed.

I want to try this and id love a beta key if you have one

Hey, you guys should play until after i get out of work this week...yah!

The only person I played with this weekend was Bsilenced. Would be sweet to get something going to just run around and test the capabilities of everything with a group of 3 or 4 people. But, Im sure this will happen when the full version is released.

Yeah it was all good on the OP4 server. Mod seems heavily involved...fun, but so much crap going on

Okay, well give me a server name or IP and I'm game. Do all ACE 2 servers not show enemy in LOS on the map? Thats def an adjustment.

Anyone have a server we can run a few missions on today? I got this figured out and want to learn the ins and outs of Ace2 with some people. lemme know...

i didnt finish my thought...i post weekly in a locked thread when ill be on vent...i give a quick 5 minute talk to people that want to fly (dont be bad, this chopper is for this, this chopper is for that, dont take out the ao with apache, etc) I forward said list of people to a mod or post in the locked thread and we all have a great time.

I would be glad to do a, once a week, flying tutorial on our server since as of lately we've been having air asset abuse going on alot. I think alot of people just ask for permission but dont read the rules.

I also reccomend rossignol's. While theyre not the top tier, they're a great investment. I actually own a pair. IMO start your daughter out on skii's. Alot of the basic movements and strategies for any winter sport can be easily learned and it doesn't discourage younger people. Younger people dont have patience and there is a reason you often see snowboarders sitting on the sides of slopes. Let her get comfortable on the skis and then let her make the jump to snowboard if she wants. Also remember, shorter skis are easier to maneuver with. I had a pair of ski blades (about 1.5 feet long) for a long time and they were a cinch to learn.

I think I play this game because I dont REALLY enjoy being shot at

I've been skiing since I was probably 2. Snowboarding or Skiing?

Yeah I think you're going to find your spawn bug somewhere in the 150m code. It was fine until they blanketed the AO.

These are for the opfor: -Spawn bug; We were dying and not able to respawn until we manually backed out and came back in. It seemed to happen after the bluefor were all over the base and the server was forced to spawn us in the middle within the 150m area. Or whatever distance it is. -Artillery; Was pretty much non-existent Thats all for now. The women's gf's are coming over tonight to watch some show. Ill be around and let you know if I find anymore. Pretty much minor stuff at this point, great map! Edit: As far as the artillery goes...is there a way to set up a fog of war for the artillery. That is, make it so that you cannot target an area that no one has eyes on without someone moving in for a look? Last night the AO was reguarly peppered with smoke mortar, which is fine. Honestly if I had sniper fire on me I would have too. But, it was the constant..."I'm getting killed over and over again because I keep getting domed everytime I try to revive this same body, therefore I will put artillery and mortar fire everywhere in the LOS to this area." I know its usually the people that don't even look at the forums but, maybe its time to leave mortar fire for Tacdom where its more controlled. Artillery is fine since its timed. But, sitting on an ammobox and firing mortars over and over is just bad as wiping out the AO with an armed air asset. Thats just my opinion.

I think with a dedicated TvT server its going to be tough to find balance. Whereas right now you have 3 OpFor members who are really there to piss the Bluefor off (defeat is inevitable), with strictly TvT the defending team will have a relatively easy time to hide and camp. The current version M is a great map. Just some tweaks that are still needed. Its like they taught me in engineering school....you can't fix stupid. There will always be those people who abuse any great thing. Don't judge on them, I like the map in its basic form just the way it is. IMO lets try and fix bugs for now and tweak game play later (ie air assets, C-130, etc)
