2142 Beta 1.40 Available for Download

[MaxUSA]

=================
UPDATE 1.40
=================
- Fixed an exploit that would allow commanders to call Orbital and EMP strikes before it had fully recharged.
- The Clark RDX Shotgun can now detonate other nearby explosives.
- EU Assault Rifle recoil and deviation have been slightly reduced.
- Bianchi and Shuko LMGs recoil reduced.
- Clark Shotgun rate of fire increased.

FEATURES
- Added an autosave to kit customizations. After you customize a kit and spawn in with that kit, the customization will be automatically saved until you change it and spawn in again. Note that you must spawn in with a particular kit for it to be saved.
- Added a new map, Highway Tampa.

Looks promising. That RDX Shotgun detail may prove to be very interesting.

hooray! finally an excuse to use the RDX shotgun

[Simpson2142]

still wish that they could fix the F3 EU transport gun, and return the squad drones back to their original health.

[KnifeHeavy]

Kits saves? across servers?

[PureKillin]

Yeah, they was gonna include that squad function in the last patch but there wasn't even time. The new commander thingy they added sounds like hell.

Did the Clark need a RoF increase? I thought it was fast enough already. Still, can't complain, makes going for my Support Gold badge all the more easier.

Glad they've tweaked the RDX Shotgun now, sure to see it being used more in Titan combat, infact gets rid of the need for engineers there now. Gah, wished I hadn't left the thing till last now, going to have to spend far too long in the Goliath to unlock the bloody thing permanently.

The re-setting of the kit never really bothered me that much. Infact now I'll never have to look at the customize screen again. I don't know whether to be happy or sad about it

Edit:
Bloody hell, thats abit big for an incremental, 370 megs?

[The_Sal]

YES!!!!! They really do listen to the little guys. I was just saying that that would really nice if they increased the RoF..... Not necessarily needed but will definitely make me happy and will increase the PWNAGE factor with the Clark. Look out guys, here I come with Clark pwnage to the face.

[Simpson2142]

lol we knew that sal would defiantly be happy with the patch.

[MaxUSA]

What's the little toggle button way in the upper-left corner? *Puts pinky to corner of mouth*

EDIT: OH THE HUMANITY! Why won't this damn game work?! New glitch for me: CTD on join game. I"ve crashed on startup, on 50% map load, and 3 minutes into the game, and when I fix one, another one starts up. Now I have to deal with this crap. Ugh, so much for this beta patch fixing things.

[The_Sal]

Im going to install tonight and see if theres a substantial difference in the RoF with the Clark....I think Im going to enjoy this Beta if there arent too many crashes like Max is talkin about.

Woops, sorry about that. Fixed.

Amen, brother!

how does the gun inconsistency of the 3rd EU seat get past QA? and is still untouched how many months later... all you need is to put someone in that seat and shoot at an enemy... you would think theyd try that.

If you'd like another mirror, here's one at FileFront: http://files.filefront.com//;7883680

It's the incremental.

[Fraanaatic]

Clark ROF increase? I love the clark, but I hope this change doesn't over buff it, so to speak.

I'm not sure if it really needed a ROF increase, but I guess I can't say anything until I try it out first hand.

The change to the Clark I was hoping they would put in was a choke feature, similar to the Jackhammer shotgun in Planetside, for those familiar with it.
