The latest game server update has completed internal QA, and has been sent out to all the RSP companies. They are doing small-scale testing of it during the evening.

If no problems are reported by the RSPs, then the companies will gradually roll it out over the next few days, starting at 10:00 UTC on Thursday Apr 19th.

This update is addressing some gameplay bugs that have been reported since the latest big client+server update. Also, there are some minor improvements to the RCON interface.

The master servers will remain available; Battlelog will remain available.

Changelist
* Fixed AA missiles not doing damage to vehicles moving at very high speeds
* Fixed TV Missile doing much more damage than it should (it is no longer a 1-hit kill)
* Tweaked tank armor strength
* MAV elevatoring fix, round 2; proning on the MAV will now disable it
* RCON admin.say command can send to individual players
* A few invalid map+gamemode combinations in maplist.txt could crash the server on startup; these combinations are now rejected instead
* RCON vars.serverDescription was not returning anything in R20 if the string was not set; this has been changed to return “” instead
* RCON player.onChat now reports the target player subset

tnx, but us should really apologize for the bad patch u made first! Even my mom could do better...so please use ur brain and test the patch better before u ruin the game even more with the next big patch! What about buffing the repairtool? It is useless now...

Nice to see!

The tank and TV missile tweaks I'm looking forward to.. and I've seen some servers crashing recently so I hope that fixes that as well.

Looking forward to the Dart fix as well but I'm sure it'll get on the next one.


Those pesky players who would jump in the chopper and switch between pilot seat and gunner to fire the TV missile at the base won't be happy.

LOL

Thanks Mike

* Tweaked tank armor strength

so now tv missile has reduced damage AND the tank gets tweaked armour, u lot out of your bloody minds? this is why this game = fail, stupid ideas and fixes that create even more damn problems

Sweet, the tv was banned in our tournament so glad to see the fix before the next battle. Just hope ya'll fixed the hit registration of the tv. The transport heli's should still die from a single tv imo, but we'll see.

thanks dice

Yeah, what's about the hit registration of the TV? I guess it hasn't been fixed, right?

WTB some kind of fix for the M26, even if you have to disable the whole damn weapon server-side.
