1 thing i hate about bf-1942
 
I hate the fact that piss ant infantry can take out a tank by grenade spamming it. Correct me if im wrong but bf-42 has an anti tank infantry, so why the hell can normal infantry guys take it out quicker than a guy who has a specialised weapon for dealing with armour?

I seen 3 axis tanks today get caught out all together with about 4 allies nade spamming the tanks and taking them all out before they could do anything about it. With any luck their first patch fixes this. I don't see the point of anti armour infantry if normal grunts can do the same job in half the time. cry:

Yep, I agree 100%.

Zoner 09-11-2002 11:29 AM

I can definitely see that being an annoyance.

I can't run the game anyway, so I can't see it for myself...ah well.

the rockets are just useless, i saw more people getting infantry kills with them, or running up to the tank and placing dynamite on it.

maybe it's for "balance" where "there aren't always anti-tank people avalible"

If tanks were not affected by grenades (the way it should be) then teams would HAVE to have anti armour classes running about thats the whole point.

Pisses me off when im spinning along in my tank and some fucking enemy comes runing TOWARDS my fucking tank throwing mini nukes (grenades).

I mean how many other games do you see infantry attacking tanks with grenades? If they fucked over the tiger im gonna be pissed. That thing should eat and shite most any other tank in the game even with numbers against it.


Another retarded thing is jeeps ramming tanks and the tanks exploding, when this first happened to me i gave my monitor a good long eek: stare.

09-11-2002 12:06 PM

as far as i can tell the tanks are pretty identical in firepower and armor for each class on each side.

i saw some newbies try to grenade a m113 in operation flashpoint once, they umm...didn't make it angel:

i seriously hope bf1942 is moddable, i haven't heard anything about mods except for some TCs which confuse me a bit considering i heard there will be no SDK release at all, but there are a lot of little things that could make it more enjoyable

RandomSkater 09-11-2002 12:47 PM

running over people in OFP(operation flashpoint) multiplayer if awsome!

Full Metal Jacket 09-11-2002 12:49 PM

One thing I don't like is that it's hard to sneak up on the enemy, or even have a good sniper spot, I mean, if i'm the allies, then as i'm looking around the screen, I see red lettering, then I know the enemy is there. I don't mind seeing my own guys lettering ( like seeing your teams avator in MOHAA ). But it takes SOME fun out of the game if it's easy as hell to find out where the enemy is, anyone else agree ?

09-11-2002 12:59 PM

i agree, especially since the first time i played singleplayer "demo" as axis i killed about 10 teammates before i realized evil:

Tripper 09-11-2002 01:06 PM

Yup....That or at least only have the names when the mouse-target is moved over their head or torso or something...

09-11-2002 02:22 PM

You must remember that these are Chi-Ha (aka Jap paper-tanks)
they only had about 6mm of armor in the back and 8 on the side or something close to that.

Old Reliable 09-11-2002 02:26 PM

Running into tanks with jeeps is the best part of the game

Are you talking about singleplayer?
Because in multiplayer the red letters come up only when you bring you sights right on the target or if the target is really close.

09-11-2002 02:56 PM

there should at least be an option to disable that

wtf?

Sicilian_Summers 09-11-2002 03:10 PM

smells like...spyware?

anyways, three grenades are more then enough to take out a tank. its quite easy to do, really.

Yeah MP, when i move my gun around while looking i can pick out exactly where the enemy is, as i'm moving, the enemy's red letters might just click on for a second while i'm scanning the area, but that's enought for me to know where he is, they should have it like MOH and only have your own teams AVATOR or lettering showing. Or should be able to disable that option. Makes the game more interesting if you were not able to pick out your enemy's so easily.

The only way grenades should affect your tank is if they throw them under it. And even then they shouldnt do much damage.

Only thing they should do is make the rocket stronger.

Coleman 09-11-2002 07:25 PM

Instead of all this junk about fixing little tihings, I say GET RID OF THE WHOLE GAME ITSELF! biggrin: DIE BF1942!!!!! bigzooka: M16:

Pyro 09-11-2002 07:43 PM

wonder if this stupid site is working for me now

Fuck the world.

Fuck Bf1942.

Fuck people in general.

that felt good

intrestedviewer 09-11-2002 07:52 PM

The rcokets are fine the way they are. At present its possible to take a 100% health tank out in 1 rocket if you know where to hit it, hitting it in that spot can be a problem though :)

Tripper 09-11-2002 10:31 PM

Sticky Bombz! Fastest way to take out the tracks on a tank....!

Oddball 09-12-2002 05:44 AM

BF1942 has some fine tuning to do, as does any game. Give it time and it will be worth it. But then again...EA cry:

Pfc.Green 09-12-2002 08:30 AM

right now I think BF1942 is as cool as these guys the [img]http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/6603/aniflags/flag35.gif[/img]

BallisticWookie 09-12-2002 09:41 AM

Well, got the full game sitting here ready to be installed. Not sure how it will be, will talk about it later. I'm playing Mafia now, I'm loving this game....except for the race. Bloody car, no matter how carefully you take the corners, always seems to lose control. Pisses me off. Anybody got any hints as to how to skip the race ?? PM me if you do. Dont post them in this thread.

Yeah, got it free again biggrin: I dont need warez wink: It's pretty cool, but I'm happy I didnt need to pay for it.

Some exciting news if you guys dont know already, on the back of the BF1942 cd case theres an add for the new MoHAA expansion. Included in the list of weapons it says "portable MG42" biggrin: Finally, MoHAA is starting to take shape oOo:

Pyro 09-12-2002 10:29 PM

send me a copy...or something because I don't want to go "against" the rules you know

09-12-2002 11:46 PM
