unfortunately Unedible wasn't on the server when we had an awsome infantry skirmish in bunker complex of kashan, and nobody else was recording

Not much to show for trans helis but the fact they have no HUD and the handling is changed.

Infantry wise you just have to try it yourself, its awesome.

Infantry has definately improved with the greatly improved deviation., but the 2 zooms for the optic scopes really pisses me off. It gets annoying having to switch the views and even worse when running widescreen fixer. I haven't gotten into any infantry fights yet though. I'll be sure to record when I do, but we would need a lot of people.

please, tell more about the infantry aspects, I'm very curious.

If you're under 50m just keep reflex mode up. You're still playing like BF2/PR where you just run with your rifle at your side and then snap it up when you see an enemy. The whole point of removing sprint is to let ppl have their gun up.

Reflex mode + Crouch + Move = Fast walk. Use it in CQB.

That said I think we do need to speed up the animations.

- Removed sprint

- Sped up walk to jog

- Added zoom to LMGs

- Reduced max deviation on rifles (mindev is same as pr) this in effect speeds up the settle time to 2-3 seconds. Also you won't trace a ring of bullets around a dude when in CQB.

- Zangoo's finished the ballistics, and they are implemented. Realistic gravity, damage drop off, and drag included.

- Ballistics required all rounds to be a tracer. We set the size to 1/3 of their current.

- Gave all scopes a 1x zoom mode. This is supposed to simulate raising a weapon but not using the sight. Basically just "reflex shooting". But if you try and play the way you do in BF2 (run around without your gun shouldered) its pretty much useless.
