I suspect that isn’t a complete list. There a some things that bani mentioned as being in the next patch which are not listed there.

Props to SD for continued development anyway :notworthy:

w00t. Just saw the news on PlanetBannerAds (aka gamespy).

I’m particularly fond of:

Also added ability for Covert Ops/Engineer to pick up weapons from the opposing team of the same class.

and

added cvar (g_disableComplaints) to disable complaint system for certain type of kills, 1 = mines, 2 = airstrike/ffe, 4 = mortar (add together for multiple types).

No more filing for stepping on mines!

(Brevik) #5

I could forego everything else in the patch for just that one bit…

(damocles) #6

Fixed some issues with Air Strike detonation

Damn I hope that doesn’t mean the crouching on them to block them feature. I love doing that.

(digibob) #7

Just the goldrush exploit (and any other similar situation, i can think of one in mp_village for example).

(kotkis) #8

What’s mp_village in ET? That’s from RtCW! :slight_smile:

I read on PW that there’s a protocol change in this upcoming version? Is that true?

Now we’re gonna have the issue of player numbers dropping off until people figure out how to get the patch, and also have to wait for new versions of ETPro and shrubs mods that are compatible with the new version :frowning:

O2.Iceman,

You can check the two ATVI Visioneer servers in ASE. They are running version 2.56, protocol 83…

On the other hand, during the ET beta we tested the auto-upgrade function of ET. I’m wondering if this patch will be available via that system. If so, it would greatly ease the process of updating for a lot of people (but also probably swamp the update servers :eek: ).

(digibob) #14

The two versions are not totally compatible, so a protocol version cahnge is the simplest way of having them not affect each other (browser for example).

  • ability to show smaller popup messages (such as death messages) with cvar cg_drawSmallPopupIcons.
  • Made it easier to give health and ammo to players closer to you (instead of giving it to yourself by accident).

Wunderbar! :smiley:

No more filing for stepping on mines!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! :notworthy::notworthy::notworthy:

Nothing is more annoying to me than some idiot stepping on my mines (especially the ones that are always placed, e.g. the track switch in railgun), and filing on me. If I hit someone with my rifle gernade, and they file, fine, I screwed up, but for heaven’s sake, don’t step on my mines, and if you do, don’t file :angry:

  • Land Mines and Adrenaline needles moved to separate weapon banks.
