DesertCombat 0.3 Alpha Mirrors

noog

Okay, DesertCombat 0.3 Alpha has been released to Fileplanet subscribers..

it comes in the form of a .exe installer which prompts for a fileplanet ID before extracting to your mods directory

the fileplanet installer is 146mb and extracts to a folder that takes up 250mb..

someone very nice has rar'd up their DesertCombat folder so you can bypass the Fileplanet login.. (It's also a fair bit smaller.)

Mirrors:

Simply extract the folder into your MODS Dir and play away.

I'll post up some new mirrors on saturday when it's released to the "rest" of the gaming community officially..

Jeez that new version rocks! all the class's are totally diffrent, theres 6 class's now:
Sniper: guess what, he has a sniper rifle!
Assault: m16/AK47, and he can drop down 4 sections of sandbags for defence (!!!!).
Anti Tank: Rocket Launcher AND mines.
Heavy assault: PKM/m249.
Support: shotty, morter, med pack and spanner (what a feckin class, the morter and shotty are great fun)
Covert Ops: scoped mp5/AK47 carbine, det packs, and coalition has binoculars, opposition has a suicide det charge (big bang).

The new viechles are also great fun the artillary units now are actually very powerful, both can kill tanks in 1 shot from behind, and the opposition one has a 3rd seat for an MG'er. The new Planes are cool, the B-17 is now a large gun ship thingy, it has a lot of seats, one is pilot (duh), and then it also has 2 vulcan's, 1 large cannon, and one smaller more rapid fire cannon, however all the guns are on 1 side of the plane, so it can only fight from 1 direction (making it perfect for circling a target) however its turning is immensely turd.
The new scud launchers are fun, big bang, but their 0 turning arc (drive must do he aiming) and very high minimum fire arc, and huge reload time make it not highly effective unless your against large numbers (however if it hits, it hurts).
The new opposition chopper is quite cool, its like the apache except it has 4 other seats of passengers, the M2A3 can also sit 4 guys in the back. So DC is much more team orientated now than in 0.2 .

This is a great update folks, 10 outta 10 from meh.

Yah it is fairly awesome, played for a while with Merc Tilt last night.
Tried to run him over in an APC after he sniped me but when i got to him he crawled backwards i jumped out of the APC and shot him but failed to see the grenade he threw at me, as he died and and i blew up i swear i seen a Joker like smile on his face

The Scud is very effective if you have a Scout who gives you a target.
I honestly think most players dont know how to give artillery a target.
