Re: Warhawk anyone?

Who is in charge of the OS clan. I would like to be added if that person reads this.

Sully I think.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

There's an OS clan? I never see anyone from that clan around.

I probably can't join because I'm already part of gamebattles clan, one of the more prominent ones actually.

I'll probably be on tonight. US-Vari-LgX-Lv2 server.

BTW, here's a heads up to some of the OS'ers who may not go on the PSU Warhawk forums, I was one of the winners for the paint scheme contest, so if you're using either Bonus 2, 7, or 10 on the Nemesis (Chernovan plane), those are the ones I did.

Seriously? That's really cool, man.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

Does anybody else have trouble moving sometimes? I'll be running forward, but it's like something is trying to push me backwards for a couple of seconds. I'm thinking it's probably my controller, but I figured I'd ask.

It hasn't caused me to be killed ... yet.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

I should be on this weekend. An update is coming out pretty soon (1.31) to address team switching and team balancing stuff.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

1.31 is coming out this week I believe, I think Wednesday. It addresses the whole team switching/team balancing thing that came up when 1.3 came out.

On a side note, I put the skins I designed on my avatar. Should make it easier since I didn't say which designs that won were mine.

Hmm, I hope that wasn't caused by avatar.

Nope...they were from a site that designs some gaming chair. More than half of their posts were advertising the chair.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

I'm not a big fan of the changes made to the Official servers. It's kind of confusing right now. And I'll probably get owned a lot from now on, since I'll be forced to play with high ranking players. Why get rid of the Levels? I downloaded both of the expansions together today, so that's more stuff for me to learn/get use to. I'm not going to get upset and give up like some people, though.

The APC is pretty fun to use. I enjoyed ramming through a guy that thought it would be a good idea to climb into the back of a jeep. I also had a guy throw a Bio-field on top of me earlier, forcing all of my teammates to drop back inside before it killed them. Pretty good strategy.

I haven't played the Glacier map much yet, but it looks good. It's bigger than I thought it would be. I noticed a lot of people just kind of driving/flying around to look at everything.

I think the APC alone will change a lot about this game. I'm looking forward to using it more in the future.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

Gotta get some reliable people you can depend on and join their games. You'll probably get better playing against the higher ranked players... but some higher ranked players are jokes (i.e. stat padders who have no combat skill whatsoever).

Re: Warhawk anyone?

I'm sure I'll improve. A lot of it is just learning to be more alert, because I'm dealing with more people that take advantage of my mistakes now.

There's a lot of complaining on the boards about the changes, though. Dylan has shown so far that he's willing to hear everyone out, so it'll be interesting to see if they change things back to the way they were. Until then, I'm still enjoying the fact that the community is way more active now. This helped generate a lot of excitement. Lowering the price of the game helped bring in more people, too.

Re: Warhawk anyone?

I did download the new pack but have not played it yet. I think i may set up my own server and just drive around the gracier map to get used to it. The apc sounds like a great idea. Also as MISSSTFAN has said, if you want both map packs you can download both for only $11.99 which is like 4 bucks off both seperatly. A good deal if you ask me.

Re: Warhawk

New update today:

• By popular demand, playlists which include the largest layouts now include only the largest layouts. They will no longer occasionally rotate into medium layouts.
• - By popular demand, respawn times have been set to 3 seconds.
• - By popular demand, Broken Mirror servers now offer dedicated CTF and ZNS games in place of the mixed playlists.Dogfight servers were added back to the list. They were inadvertently omitted before.
• - All games’ time limits were reduced to 15 minutes, and ZNS score limit was reduced to 5000, to combat complaints of prolonged base camping.
• - “NEWBIE” servers were changed to “Rookie” to bring the nomenclature in line with upcoming changes in v1.4.
• - “Pro” servers were changed to “Expert” to more obviously indicate a skill level rather than a player type. Some players incorrectly identified “Pro” servers as tournament games, a la MLG or GGL.
• - “Casual” servers are essentially the same as before, but the “Casual” designator has been dropped. We now refer to these internally as just “standard” servers, and they are listed without any special identifier.
• - The rank cap on Rookie servers was increased to Wingman, since players were getting kicked out of these servers too quickly and finding themselves unprepared to play on standard servers.
• - A rank cap was imposed on standard servers at Command Marshall. This is rank 15/19 so it should not affect a lot of players. The intention is to pull some of the most elite players out into their own category, somewhat narrowing the rank gap on these servers.
• - Many Omega Dawn exclusive servers were removed due to lack of use.
