Your Top Ten Patch 1.2 Items List

EPinniger · 03-27-07, 02:41 PM

Haven't played enough (still haven't completed a campaign patrol) to list 10 items, but there are two serious bugs I've experienced, plus one minor issue and two feature requests:

1. Volumetric fog/environmental effects problems and FPS-killing "monolith"
2. CTD when giving "maintain depth" order after diving
3. AA gunners don't fire often if not at battle stations
4. Allow adversarial MP games to be started with only 1 player in the game (not a bug, but a quick fix which would allow the creation of some interesting SP ship missions; also useful for testing MP missions created with the editor)
5. New sound for 40mm AA guns. It sounds a bit odd currently to have the same rather weak sound for AA guns of all calibres (plus it's hard to tell which AA guns are firing when you're not controlling them yourself)

(EDIT: I would have mentioned the Allied aircraft as well, but I doubt there'll be an official fix for this; it's probably up to the modders! I think the Pacific Storm legal issues must be the reason for the aircraft weirdness in SH4, as there are actually textures for F4Fs, SBDs, B-24s etc. in the texture folder. All the same, I'd love to see accurate US aircraft in the game, particularly Catalinas)
