Nemesis Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Hey gang, A new Patch for BF1942, v1.5 has recently been released. Naturally it would be very normal to go & grab it right away & start playing... DON'T!!!! This beauty has some serious issues. Here's what I have encountered so far w/ it on 3 different PC's... 1) With it running as a dedicated server on my 3rd pc, myself & a friend were simply unable to connect to it. The loading bar status indictator would be almost done when the game simply crashes back to the desktop. This happens repeatedly no matter the amount of times I try. 2) Single Player mode now runs very choppy. One would normally associate the work "LAG" when having connection issues via a multiplayer game... this is all over the Single Player aspect now. Cutting down on what is rendered has absolutely no effect whatsoever. 3) I also noticed that the BOTS seem even less "intelligent" than before & often encountered them getting vehicles stuck in the dumbest of places. This is something that one would expect to see when playing against Wargasm But it doesn't end there, on a number of occassions I came across opposing BOTS that were simply standing/laying down next to each other & taking no action. I find it very odd that the developers of this newest Patch would let such things slip through. I was so hoping that this new Patch would address the issue of the game crashing @ random times when connecting to a multiplayer game. It's very frustrating to play a multiplayer game that has the tendacy to simply "crash" on you when simply trying to connect to a game in progress. I also found it annoying that when someone entered a board shortly after U that the game would kill U & then restart the board. I do like the new skins that were put in for the player models & weapons/vehicles. Hopefully these issues will be "properly" addressed in the next ver of the Patch, if there ever is one. For the moment, I'm running bf1942 Patch v1.45 w/ the newest Desert Combat Mod v0.5L & they are getting along w/ each other very well. -- Nem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wargasm Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 True...I expect patches to fix things, not make them worse. And that tank stuck in the mud - that was your teams abandoned tank, I only used it to launch a rocket up your a$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero's attacking an aircraft carier.Looks like we're in for the software wars....just like the movie wars....IE - Dante's Peak vs Volcano, Deep Impact vs Armageddon, Matrix vs .........???
