Probably, yeah. It the fun. I can 'do' helicopters now, but planes still rule the skies. Nothing as terrifying as looking out the window on a chopper to see a large hulk of metal hurtling towards you.

My favourite tactic is to be Special Ops, get in a chopper (or get a lift with a team), land in that car park area behind the oil drums, take out their radar and artillery command thing, lay C4 on the runway, blow them up as they fly off, then escape in one of their planes, James Bond style, crash into the sea, parachute onto the deck of the carrier, repeat!

I had so much planned but my whole weekend was stolen by San Andreas.

I want it back!

I hate the helis. I just can't manouver them properly.

The planes, however, are excellent.

The single player on the demo is just multiplayer with bots. I doubt that's the actual single player.

Anyone know how to command remotely? Some guy at the other end of the map wanted supplies, I dropped them right in front of me - another guy request Artillery on the enemy base - I destroyed 2 of my lovely helis and a Harrier :(

Wonderful, wonderful game though, although I occasionally got booted from games by Punkbuster because I had an 'Empty Win32 Packet Module' or something. Anyone know what the hell that means and how to remedy it?

Oh, and what servers are you lot on? Every time I open XFire, the option to join you isn't available :|

It's probably not the final build but it must be pretty close to it.

Have you all tried playing the 16 player map? it's much more of a fire fight ground based battle, the map is alot smaller but it's bloody good fun.

Crossbob don't spam in here, don't answer or write back unless it's useful not just a pointless post like most of yours.

Well I dunno if this build is the final retail version or an earlier build.

So by this I can tell its a good game?

Kinda a shame that the demo does have 'Create Internet Game' i hope there will be the option in the full thing.

Monkey_man you using your GAD win on this now that you know you can play it?

Is it just me or if the first game you join really stuttery and jumps about a bit, then after a while goes to normal smooth game?

It's just an automatic ban if you get so many tk's, it's the same on every server.

I got an ultimate team kill. I planted C4 on the chopper and both planes at the top base. Waited til they were all full and in use then BANG! Lots and lots of dead team mates.

Can't remember which server it was, but I'm now banned from it.

I just don't know why people can't have a laugh. If I did that to you lot, everyone would laugh and get on with it.
