[Server Question?]

whaaa

If you have nothing constructive, or on topic, to say, don't bother posting. We don't need that around here.

SO what was the thinking behind this? I only play a handful of games....is this the way most new games are being setup.....Its new to me...and I dont care for it myself.

HACK

To answer your question, a lot of new games make use of an ingame browser similar to Gamespy's intergration in GR:AW.

Discussion of "tools" or "patches" that allow for the game to be run without a CD/DVD are a nono here.

[Taking a Hit - Lack of Immediate & Noticable Effect/Punishment]

when there is no dedicated servers, no proper game modes, a terrible browser, no proper anticheat, hardly any weapons, god I could go on...

yes

You could go on, but not in this thread. If you having nothing to say about this topic, don't bother posting in it.

[NEW PATCH VERY DISAPPOINTING]

Some people really need to start acting like adults and some folks just ended up on post mod for ignoring my warning.

[NEW PATCH VERY DISAPPOINTING]

This childish stuff stops now. No more warnings.

Now as per the original post, a number of the things your are disappointed about were never supposed to be in this patch. Ubisoft made it clear what was coming in June, and that the other things (TDM and standalone server) are coming later (July and August).

[Ghost Recon 4]

You also forget RSE DID have a crack at making a GR title. They F_ed it up, we didnt get GR2 because they were focused on the CONSOLE version.

Ubi pulled the rug out from under Red Storm. Thats their fault? How? They asked for more time. We could have had the direct port in November of '04 but RSE didn't want to do that to the PC gamers. Yeah its all RSE's fault they wanted to try build a more PCcentric version game.

I don't understand how you can point to RSE as the cause of the GR2 cancellation, that was all Ubi.

thier history of how they produce PC games look a hell of alot better than RSE's does now.

You mean Ballistics and Bandits? Ballistics was released in 2001, and its a futuristic racing game. Bandits was released in 2002, and its an action style vehicle combat game. I don't know how either relate to a AAA first person shooter franchise like GR. GR:AW PC isn't exactly R6 or RS here.

RSE is still producing quality titles irregardless if you feel they are beneth you because of platform.

RSE didnt produce GR1 from thin air, They started with R6, the Rouge spear, then GR. Its took them some generations to get to the point were they could ###### away all that FPS developing talent for a more consol minded bunch.

One quick question, have you seen the Swedish news article mentioing the room full of PS3 dev kits that GRIN has? Here it is for you. Does that make them a console minded bunch too?

LD in 5 months sounds a lil BSy to me, Ive seen them advertising and talking about the games soon after Ravenshield was released, ... eh sooon enough for them to have a hell of alot more than 5 months to work on it.

LD PS2 and Xbox shipped in September of last year, LD PC shipped in February of this year. Around 5 months, from when the different versions of the title shipped, looks about right. Some people are playing the "GRIN didn't have enough time" card in regards to GR:AW, but with RSE and LD the time facter doesn't matter? I don't understand why one studio gets a reprieve, while the other gets slammed.

LD has 16 single player missions, and 8 MP maps. Each had to be brought up to a PC graphical standard, and then each has to go their Q/A testing cycles. If anything was broken it had to be fixed and retested. How the hell could Red Storm have totally rebuilt every map in the game, done more work on the feature set (ie. the planng stage) all on a DX9 engine built up from a PS2 base? More time is how, something Ubisoft wouldn't give them. Same thing happened with GR2 PC.

The whole problem here isn't Red Storm. Its Ubisoft. But instead of blaming the real culprit, your ready to slag off on the people in the trenches. Because RSE has shipped a good number of console titles, and one for the PC in the past few years that automatically makes them a kiddie developer? Whatever. Guess GRIN's PS3 project makes them one too now? Going by your logic of Xbox owners being kiddies. Do you know the majority of gamers are in the 18-55 age bracket, and most play on consoles? Kiddies. I think not.

Red Storm deserves an honest chance to prove themselves to the PC audience. Ubisoft hasn't given them that honest chance in years.

[Ghost Recon 4]

no offense, but didn't red storm entertainment make LOCKDOWN... that has to be 100x worse than this no?

RSE had like 5 months to make Lockdown PC, but it still has a more complete MP than GR:AW PC. LD shipped with TDM, DM, a number of other game types and it has more MP maps than GR:AW PC. It can even be argued that it looks better than GR:AW PC as well. (Both games lack a standalone dedicated server, and proper admin tools).

In my opinion RSE needs the proper amount of time to make a game. Look at GR:AW 360 (started around the same time as GR:AW PC), its still #2 on Xbox Live a few months after release. Think about this, if 360 got the PC game, do you think it would be #2 on Live? I think not. 360 is a pretty darn good game, and it really feels like a sequel to GR1.

One only has to look at the non-RSE produced GR titles (GR1 Jungle Storm, GR2 PS2, GR:AW PS2, GR:AW Xbox, GR:AW PC) to see that Red Storm has a really good handle on the Ghost Recon series. Notice something about those other GR games? They aren't nearly as good, or true to the original, as those produced by RSE. I don't hesitate to include GR:AW PC in that group either.

RSE deserves to get another, proper, crack at a PC GR title. Give them 2 years, and they'll probably make GR:AW PC look like a bad dream.

So what do I want in GR4 PC? I want a proper Red Storm produced sequel.

[Running while reloading solution]

During my military service I learned to reload WHILE running, and I was only a swedish MP.

You'd think special forces would be able to do it, wouldn't you?

According to Hatchetforce, they can, easily.

[Create Your Own Game?]

I have almost never wished a mod team has made a full game. I've liked mods a lot, but if you actually look at them they're rarely actually valid enough to be sold as stand alone products.

Does the name Counter Strike ring a bell?

[DLC news and video]

I really need to get a 360...

["Massive Update": Here's what the X-boxers are getting t]

Please somebody port the Xbox version to PC

I said that months ago and people just said "They don't want no stinkin port". Go figure, now people are more open to the idea.

[Something wierd I saw today]

Click the secondary area in the loadout screen, same as you do in SP, you'll find them there. Also there are extra frags and smokes in the third "tab".

[Something wierd I saw today]

Secondaries are available in MP. I carry an M9SD, often.

["June Patch" discussion thread]

Ok, I'm putting my foot down. People need to stop with these childish responses (not just in this thread, but all throughout the GR:AW forum). People sometimes double post, people sometimes make mistakes in their posts, and some people just come onto the forum to be disruptive. My suggestion is if it obvious that a person made a mistake, ignore it and don't act like childish and point it out(like the post above).

If a person is just here to be disruptive? PM a moderator and leave the personal attacks and insults at home. After right now, any further disruptive postings and childish stuff will be removed.

Any questions PM me.

[Ammo Hack Video]

Hmmm, for a second I thought I was at UBI. But I deleted that post...

Locked.

[It's official...]

Give the console bashing a rest already. And sorry, downloadable content for an Xbox game isn't an expansion.

[First pseudo add-on weapon]

I have removed a few disruptive "your making hacks" posts. Please keep this thread on topic. If you are just here to call people hackers for making some mods, my sugesstion is to leave the modding forums, and not look back. Any further disruptive posts will be removed (please PM if you see one), and further actions will be taken, if needed.

[All the love for 360, what about PC?]

Yes.

["June Patch" discussion thread]

Yes, it is Uber weak that there is not TVT DM in "June Patch"...That's what the community has been crying out for! I just feel bad for everyone that spent 50 dollars on the game for the MP aspect (tvt), they have been screwed...

Glad I canceled my Pre-Order!

Bo, the hate is now warranted...you have yet to turn our MP frown Upside down!

Give it a rest already. Stop posting saying same exact things in every thread you visit.

With the newest patch 1.10, you can remap that key.

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun!

[[How to do Airstrike....]]

With the new patch you can re-map the crosscom keys, so you can use a button other than the middle mouse now.

I've deleted the disruptive posts. This is a thread about weapon modding, anything else is considered off topic and will be deleted.

We don't need to add a "War Room", or squad section. We've had them for years already.

[first dowloadable content image an info.]

All they did was say people at E3 get to see the first glimpse of the DLC. They never said it was done and ready to go out the door. I mean people get impatient wanting to know if any DLC is on the way, and after some of the work in progress stuff is shown people want it now. This content isn't created over night. Ubi threw people a bone, which they did not have to.
