Attention Soldiers!

Although the 1.3 patch is still being worked on we wanted to provide a peek at what you can expect with the coming release:

NEW FEATURES

* Co-op: Co-op Mode allows you to play Single Player levels on the Internet and LAN with both AI controlled bots and human players. Several new options have been created that will allow the server creator to modify how the bots behave in game.
* Air dropped vehicles: Squad members can now send a request up the chain of command for a vehicle to be dropped at their location.

clicky

It says nothing about "fixed bug where friendly soldiers show up as enemies so you shoot them then get punished for a teamkill without realising you did it"

Most.
Annoying.
Bug.
Ever.

Air-dropped vehicles is nice tho, but maybe a little useless since they'll be buggies rather than tanks or apcs

i hope the air drops can go horribly wrong sometimes, like they should.

Well since a supply crate can crush you, I'm sure a vehicle will!

Besides, its EA; of course they'll go horribly wrong!

I quite like the coop idea. A good place for people like me to go through a proper training session without constantly getting pwned by people with auto-kill buttons on their keyboards.

yup, it could be worth playing with on bukkake, and even 6-8 5punkers should able to handle about 25-30 bots

Sounds like fun!

Don't forget your bot-handling gloves.
