Hi m8tes :)

I do not have very much information regarding FC2-MP, so I was wondering if somebody can give me a short description?

Is something like the FC1-Assault mode available? I really loved Assault but don't know any other game besides FC1 which supports such gameplay.

cheers,

FC2 does not have an assault mode but does have lots of bugs and issues :bad: . I don't think many, if any, players in our clan still play FC2 regularly, I personally gave up and went back to FC1 about a month after FC2 was released :shock: and I don't think anything short of the game being rewritten properly would change my mind.

I.e. don't touch it with someone else's barge pole, wrapped in plastic, and burnt afterwards

ok, I'm convinced :D

FarCry already installed and patch 1.40 + FCLoader (great work!) in progress.

Any suggestions where to download FCMaps?

Heres a rough comparison using a time scale

20:00pm
FC1 > Load Up
FC2 > Load Up

20:01pm
FC1 > Click MP
FC2 > Click MP

20:02:pm
FC1 > Join a server
FC2 > Loading online profile

20:03pm
FC1 > Pick a team and load out - join game
FC2 > Retrieving player stats

20:04pm
FC1 > 10 kills, loads of baggin...enjoying oneself
FC2 > Retrieving player stats

20:05pm
FC1 > 23 kills and 1 flag cap
FC2 > MP Menu ...select RANKED match and join a server

20:10pm
FC1 > Cap'd all 3 flags, teams switch around
FC2 > Sat in server lobby waiting for more players...

20:20pm
FC1 > Game over, next map started
FC2 > Sat in server lobby, waiting for more players...

20:30pm
FC1 > Teams have switched, 1 flag already cap'd
FC2 > Sat in server lobby, waiting for players to ready up and stop spamming chat

20:40pm
FC1 > On 3rd map, 2 flags cap'd, 18 kills...loads of baggin
FC2 > Loading Map - no indication of time left before map loads

20:50pm
FC1 > 4th map loading up...got a stiffy!
FC2 > Game finally started, but teams are already uneven, there is no option to switch teams and the autobalance doesnt work once the game has started

21:00pm
FC1 > 4th map, finished attacking, now defending...47 kills
FC2 > Multi_Grenade_Launcher nab ruining it for everyone, admin doesnt know how to remove player...10 kills

21:03pm
FC1 > playing just fine and dandy
FC2 > Admin kicked you for killing too much (OR) PB kicked you (OR) Ubi server goes down killing everything (OR) map ends due to uneven teams leaving 2 players fighting 8 and getting their arse handed to them, winning team are all "whooping" because they are gay kids. The map ends and you are all kicked from the server and back at the MP menu......repeat the past hour!
