[Mr_E]

it took forever to load a simple skirmish, i'm guessing you fixed the super transporter speed?

Yes, they have fixed the Super Transporter speed

[Mr_E]

great now behold my epic army, of bug assault gun vtols , also can i use the shift+f12 thing in multiplayer?

[Black Project]

also can i use the shift+f12 thing in multiplayer?

No, it's only allowed in Skirmish, so you have to familiarize yourself with the weapons/sensors range without the Sensor drawing view on MP matches.

Regards BP

[Mr_E]

well then, guess i'll go back to what i do best, stir up trouble...

I did a skirmish on Rush2 this morning to check out defense structures. I found that a hardpoint can shoot over a wall infront of it, and a line of bunkers infront of that wall. I think that's only nearly sufficient.

I can live with a hardpoint not shooting through/over a hardpoint, same for bunker, etc. What seems incorrect to me is that towers won't shoot over hardpoints. Towers are weaker than hardpoints (ie., A lancer tower has 2/3 (66%) the HP of a lancer hardpoint) which has me wondering what purpose they'll serve in the future if they can't be clustered? What advantage will they have? The cost difference to build is disproportionate when compared to the drop in HP ($150 vs. $175 (86% of hardpoint cost)).

Please allow towers to shoot over hardpoints, remove them, or lower their build cost.

Can anyone verify that AA can shoot through towers, but hardpoints block AA (if you have a row of AA behind)? I've heard this is true from a frequent MP player.

Some of what I've noticed:

Edit: Thanks for Building Hiran.

[macuser]

Are you saying you can't compile it on your mac? I could build it for you if that is the case

I'm still having problems when they tell you updates or what you have to do in the beginning of each level. The screen will blink and than you have to go and read it yourself. It will not display on the screen or hear it.

The game will crash after the save point and that is when I try to click on the tab "continue" the game and that is when it will crash.

If you already had the videos, then you have to copy them over to the new folder/directory, if you didn't have them you need to download them from http://wz2100.net/download
