'Large' Update coming.

[Witzig]

I wish I used fraps, I could get you several every game I play. Some examples that have happened to me in the past few days:

Always with the G41 ?

Never mind, I see there is an achievement that is called "In B4 reset" so I guess that answers my question.

I thought this might be a photoshopped joke, but I just went to the Steam Community page and it is indeed there. Cool!

 

[Tukhachevskii]

Not a word has been said by anyone TWI on the matter. I expect it's a decision they're going to go with and they see no benefit in telling the community what they're going to do. Who, exactly, that is meant to spare, the people that want a reset or the people that don't.....who knows. At this point I think they know what they're going to do and they've weighed the benefits of telling us about it and decide they're not that that great.

Either way this is good news all around and I hope this update is out very soon. I'm fairly sure that if TWI doesn't implement an official reset, there will be a ghetto way to do it ourselves at the very least. While that may not make everyone happy, I think it would make most people happy.

There is an easy solution, just reset stats on anyone who has stats over lvl 70 or so and leave the rest unreset. That way you wipe most of the glitched stats and leave most of the ones that people have ground. Least whine this way I think.

P.S. The odd thing is, I have noticed absolutely nothing wrong with hit detection from 100m on out. It is fairly easy to hit someone's head sticking out of a window from 125m, and I've always hit when I knew I was spot on and had the sight adjusted to 200m. It's only at ranges only the world's worst shot can miss at that this seems to happen.

Exactly. Hit detection (on a stationary target) beyond I'd say 75m is accurate down to the size of a dime. Less than 10m? Whole shots dead in center mass through ADS, gone.

If there was a way you guys could put a live (on the network) server under load but where two people could test in peace....I think you could reproduce this. If you just need to SEE it in action....find a server that's decently full reporting 200+ ping, and go do some CQC.

Hopefully they realise that half of the game is aready played for most people if a reset is not in place. Being competetive towards the new BF3 game, its vital for people to have some goals to achive in this game.

Therefore a reset is mandatory!

Reset is mandatory. But the "goal to achieve" first of all is to win the maps, not wheeny enlargement via stats .

I think this whole stat and promotion system did not do the game any good.

It only attracted hordes of teeny boys with their rulers, who are now flooding the foorum whith their "stats are off" - whining and do not have any capability of enjoying a nice online gaming session.

Regarding the In B4 Reset achievement, how do I earn it?

No seriously I want it.

 

[Stahlhelmii]

No, also with the SVT, or with with AVT in semi-auto mode. I have to admit to be a long-range camper if I have to use a bolt for that very reason ... you've got one shot, and if it doesn't register, you're toast nearly every time.

It's pretty much in the name.

Also, CAN'T WAIT for the patch!

I become Mr. Stabby...

 

[MissionMaximus]

Can't wait for the Patch. Also my achievments/stats are right the rest of you guys, I think need to startover.

 

[Dionysos]

Looking forward to the update.

On a related note, the no-fire on ("first") mouse click is way more annoying to me. I die because of it quite regularly, though I can't reproduce it.

I agree with everything said in this post, except for ping -- it seems to happen in all ping situations.

 

[PsYcHo126]

Ah, that update sounds nice! And I hope you really reset the stats. Because the fix would be useless if you would not do it. Yesterday I played again and ~70% of all players were level 99! :/

no i had a buddy who bought the game last Saturday and he got to lvl98 after 30min playtime

the only realistic lvl boost that could be done is giving some start XP after reset based on playtime

That sounds good to me, too, but I wouldn't gripe too much about a global reset, either. The problem is so widespread that there really may be no other viable solution. It would suck, but it would suck for everybody ... not like some would get reset waivers or anything.

 

[PvtProperty]

Sounds excellent. the "in b4 reset" is hilarious

 

[derbefrier]

Hails yeah sounds like it time to start playing again

 

[JaspisB]

This certainly sounds promising and the achievement at least gives proof of some sort of reset. The question is if it will be mandatory, though. I, myself, can see strong arguments both towards it being mandatory and not being it and as far as I'm concerned it isn't a freakishly big deal with the weapons, but more so with the honor; from what I can gather the honor is there to serve the purpose of showing others how well experienced one is, and therefor how sutiable one is for responsible positions, such as commander. If the the honor isn't reset for all it goes from being a quite nice touch to just being there for leveling weapons, which certainly would be a shame... I do hope, and think, Tripwire has already seen and handled this issue, or at least so it seems; to which ecxtent remains to be seen...

EDIT: Also, it would be REALLY NICE if they managed to reset the Steam achievements.

thats great for people like me... stats work for a about 2 days then go to level 79.
I either go back to 0 or maybe the level 15 got in the couple of days I was able.

Man I'm so exited for a new update
