Not Too Much Longer? Hot Diggity!

[Keganator]

<i>Warren said on the Front Page:</i>
2.87 shouldn't be too much longer now.

HOT DIGGITY!!! This is the fastest version turnaround in a long, LONG time! Go INF Team!

 

[John Smallberries]

Just curious -- how long was the wait between 2.85 and 2.86? And what changes were made?

 

[yurch]

Well, there was 2.80, the short lived 2.82(1?), 2.83, 2.85, and 2.86.

 

[Keganator]

Well, from 2.85 (um, january 2001, right?) to 286 (uh, sometime this summer) was a long time.

 

[John Smallberries]

And the changes made since 2.85?

 

[Keganator]

A new gun. Weapon's bump into things. Scoreboard. Proning no longer sux ass. Yep, that about covers it. I miss anything?

 

[Faded Soul]

Fixed Leaning...
Run Speeds
Added in a third Option Jog

 

[Keganator]

oh, yeah!

 

[rgreene]

yes... the infamous running/jogging thing. now it's impossible to walk without tapping that damn button 7 times in a row. I hope that they fix this in 2.87...

 

[Sparky_NZ]

My problem is I can't jog, I either get stuck in walk or sprint and have to mash the run key until I get jog. That's only online though. Offline it's fine.

 

[poaw]

Am I the only one that remembers the whole "Release Immenient" thing?

 

[yurch]

Tip:
Crouching quickly will switch you to walk. At least it does for me.

 

[Kuroshio Apocal]

Yeah, remember how 2.85.5 was supposed to give way to a new version within 'a month'?

 

[Keganator]

Ah, yes, good old Infiltration time. Different from real time, where days equal weeks and weeks equal months.

 

[John Smallberries]

Proning no longer sux ass.

Uh, sorry, Keg, it does. Maybe it was worse before, but ever try to brush up against a wall while prone? Or go through a tunnel? Horrible.

 

[Hadmar]

The problem with proning was, that it was instant, no delay, no animation.

You can disable auto proning somewhere in the menue.

 

[Keganator]

Okay, it's no longer something to *exploit*. It still sux ass, but just moved from the left cheek to the right cheek

 

[the vrrc]

I run in Infiltration time. "Oh, damn, I have to go to school in three hours!"
"Its... saturday..."
"It is? That leaves me only two hours!"

Go into INF and click the browser. The news should show all the changes that came in with 2.86.

 

[peep]

Don't forget weapon collision. It came out in the new version too. I personally love it.

I think that us Mac users should start saving chicken livers and virgin blood for the upcoming release so that we won't be unprepared... unless they fix the installer.

 

[vincenzo_og]

in 2.85 when proned ur hit radius/collision zone wasn't right...making it very hard to actually score a hit on a proned person. Which for a long time was just about the worst thing in INF.
