sounds good, no vehicle whore mode, has anyone tried out the 1.4 patch?

I tried it for about an hour, not long enough to notice anything different apart from a new map, which looked okay.

So infantry only means no vehicles then? I assume the base capture stuff will all be the same?
Would infantry only mode still allow Artillery and so on?

just tried out the new patch. theres about 8 beta servers running this. I didn't come across any server playing 'infantry only' mode. No changes to artillary support etc... be interested to see if they will actually address the bugs, rather than bring out new bugs and features as in 1.3...
Cartillary - when you drop vehicle on artillary, it takes out the artillary
Karkland bug - when you can hide in the hotel and shoot out but no one can shoot in at you
C4 - you can jump and throw C4 again, i've always felt this was a legit method of tanking out tanks.
One shot kill on tanks - been a victim of this myself quite recently.
(never been addressed in any patches) Friendly showing up as enemy on radar - I've been kicked from servers for teamkilling because of that bug.
Not really a bug but I quite liked the vehicle drop feature, useful anti-sniper counter measure. also useful when you drop them in the paths of planes trying to take off on runways. (i play with such dirty tactics).
Any chance of including 'Mashtur City' map on the server?

We (5punk) don't have our own server as such. We (5punk=currently only Berk) have admin on Lanarchy.co.uk and that is a city maps+one guest map, (usually Kubra). It's where we try to set up our Beef nights.
That's enough brackets for now.

i wasn't aware they did that.
currently it's just karkand/sharqi.
They dont wanna put mashtuur on the cycle, apparently it was emptying the server.
i'll pester a bit more at some point.

Ah
Might be my somewhat addled brain. I thought they did a city cycle with one additional guest, I am probably getting confuzzled with FMJS then.

thought i'd post these links showing some of the glitches in 1.3 which might be of interest
Cartillary

Karkland hotel

C4 thrower

not a bug, commander hack
hack
So far i've seen cartillary/karkland exploits on ranked servers. I hope we don't see any of this on Lanarchy

Interesting and good to see what the bug lists are actually talking about.

Had a word with mcbain.
basically, they wanna keep it karkand and sharqi only, he asked the LNY lot (and the other donors etc)
unfortunately, there's not much more we can do, we're one of 3 groups that donate, not including LNY themselves - democracy sucks
