V1.1 will have some of the following.....

[Slime]

Here is (http://www.jacksonville.net/~slomoorg/pinkFLF11.htm) at least some of what should be in V1.1 and even mention of a couple of things for V2. I've seen a few mentions of 1.1 being out maybe Wednesday (i.e. tomorrow).

These are taken from postings by "Pink" (lead developer) on the FLF forum site.

"Dive on grenade is in, but I made it more simpler than that, if you see a live grenade, just run over to it, and crouch on top. You will take all the damage, and your teammates will only receive 15% of it."

Nice :)

Cheers

Great stuff. I can just see this on the public servers.

(1)Player and (2)Player see the grenade land at their feet.

(1)Player "You jump on it"
(2)Player "No, you jump on it"
(1)Player "I asked first"
(2)Player "Yea But..."

**(3)Player killed (1)Player with Grenade
**(3)player killed (2)Player with Grenade

And someone (on the FLF forum site) suggested they should incorporate an in game "grenade" voice which could be done at a push of a button. That'd be fun (except everyone would go into mad panic every time it was shouted :E

Would be fun if they did, I'd jsut replace mine with "......mother" :)

:stare:

I've just noticed that they've posted most of the information about V1.1. It's here (http://www.planethalflife.com/frontline/).

Having just read it....this one leapt out at me Added cl_teamicons. When turned on (1), you will see a triangle over your teammates heads.

Good idea i think, it certainly worked well in Tribes.
(there's some "awesome" new skins as well).

cheers

this is just so i look clever: :P

Here's a small list of the many added features/bug fixes/etc. that are in 1.1:

- Fixed some problems with the gun accuracy.
- Made Team Bonus affect accuracy more.
- Fixed a "crash" bug with servers related to the mapcycle.txt.
- Reduced player speeds just a little bit.
- Jumping drains a little bit more stamina.
- Fixed skin change cheat.
- Fixed dead bodies using flashlight.
- Removed default_fov cvar.
- Added drowning sound.
- Fixed empty locations on hud.
- Pain Sprites not showing fixed.
- Tweaked M4 behavior.
- Added flinch animations.
- Added awesome new player and weapons skins. Thanks Musicmad and tekk.
- Fixed color in scoreboard and in the cpstatus.
- You can get rid of the CPStatus by hitting the cpstatus key again.
- Added chat flood protection.
- Added sv_startmatch command. Resets the map w/o causing everyone to have to reload, making sure everyone gets a fresh start.
- Added cl_teamicons. When turned on (1), you will see a triangle over your teammates heads.
- Added mp_forcebalance var, if a team has already too many players, you can't change to it.
- Dive on grenade is in, if you see a live grenade on the ground, and you want to protect your teammates, just jump over it and you'll take all the damage for them. Really good to protect teammates capturing points.
- Fixed some lag issues that were caused by a CONFIG.CFG screwup

Also added is a new map, flf_kezman by ErikN.

BTW - "Jumping drains" ? Bloody hell.....i never noticed those :E

Like the sound of the patch, addresses alot of issues.

No mention of new weapons in there. :cry:
Need another sniper rifle I think.

Nice to see some flinch animation added... help determine you actually hitting the buggers.

Dont like idea of reducing player speed though, I found it about right. Support guy will hardly move by the sound of it.

Triangle over team m8 head will help, especially as they adding new skins to confused everybody.


Only major thing that has annoyed me with the game is the huge lag that happens. I get pings over 400 with isdn. Affects everyone if you look at scoreboard, maybe the config bug mentioned in patch list was the cause otherwise they gotta work on it.

[Intron]

well if you noticed the Rcon guy was way way way to fast i think thats what is being slowed down though cos it was stupidly fast and the fact that he could pick up any guy was dangerous. the grenade idea is good :) ill be using that a lot when i just want to get the cap point my self lol :D

throwing your self on a grenade is good cos that is the one thing that was really annoying all the Cap points were easy to greande and it would take every one out useully ... or the grenade would vanish and no one get hurt :(

[-TARBY-]

When is this going to be out???

:)

[Si_Se]

well it was supposed to come out monday - so probs this week

[Slime]

Posted today on the FLF webby :-

Cheers
Slime

[Holy]

Me being on the ultra slow side today has posted the 1.1 patch info in another post...

/me slaps self with monitor

Holy...out

[-TARBY-]

I expect thsi will happen anyway but....

If I havent noticed it when it comes out can someone post the fact and Ill get the cogs turning in Wireplay Towers...

:)

[Mr Hat]

and the fact that he could pick up any guy was dangerous
You meant gun there right?
Or is the recon guy also capable of chatting up players mid game ;)?

[Slime]

LOL @ Mr Hat - i'm glad someone else asked.....otherwise that would have taken "teamplay" to a whole new level :E

Slime

[Mr Hat]

"Is that a grenade in your pocket or are u happy to see me?"

BANG!

"Guess it was a grenade then :("

[Nor]

Hehe i got a good one from one of your forums Slime

[Slime]

Yep, made me laugh as well. Espcially when someone replied that they didn't know ADSL was available in his arse either ;)
