Official INF 2.9 Bonus pack announcement 2 month old today

[NTKB]

not if you use dynomite.

Beppo, have some rest man. I'm quite happy as the game is right now.

 

[Beppo]

What are the details on this? Will this allow you to search bodies instead of having all the item a player is carrying suddenly spew out of the pack? Of course the thing I would really like to see is a delay on some of the smaller items as you rifle through the guy's pack.

The carcass 'name' (unknown if enemy) will be displayed in your QA Pickup menu. This menu is new and similar to the equipment and drop ammo menu within the voice/qa menus. You can use the pickup menu to select a single item out of a pile of stuff lying around. This way you don't need to pickup the whole pile of weapons to finally grab the ammo mag you wanted to pick up cause it is lying below them for example. The pickup menu is working fully online.

The carcasses are displayed as 'pickups' and if you click on them, then all items the player had in his loadout at the moment he died will be listed. This does not include the dropped items of course. The admins can configure which items to drop. So, if they would turn of the drop all weapons/ammo params, then only the player attachments that were visual (weapons slung, chested aso) would be dropped and the 'rest' would stick to the carcass' inventory.

Unfortunately this extra inventory and carcass check needs some additional coding to get it working online properly. Atm the carcasses inventory is not yet replicated properly it seems and I haven't had the time to check this out yet.

LOL, I just found out about the bonus pack, as I've been away from Inf all summer. I think it hilarious that they're adding the 1911. HAPPY NOW DOMINO!?!!!?!?!

Anyway, I'm happy to hear the news, we can all finally stop bitching about the lack of battle rifles and all the other fan moans that have been persisting over the last 3 years.

 

[NTKB]

Whats the difference between a battle rifle and an assault rifle anyhow?

 

[Arethusa]

Battle rifles fire full size rifle ammunition (eg 7.62x51mm NATO) while assault rifles are selective fire rifles that fire intermediate (light) rifle cartridges (eg 5.56x45mm NATO) in order to facilitate rapid fire.

 

[Logan6]

Assault Rifles: kind of like the bastard offspring from the mating of a Garand with an MP5.

 

[Burger]

Well, Sentrystudios News has some info that may make some people happy. Some guys from the 121st are testing the bonus pack and:

"Hopefully we will get it all tested and ready and can finally release it to you within the next week or two."

 

[Vega-don]

Actually, 3DRealms approached us to complete the Inf Bonus Pack while we focus on "the next thing". They said it should be ready really soon...

 

[Arethusa]

Ooh, Infiltration Forever.

Will it be possible to do this with the CD so that it is less like a football.

 

[Lasersailor184]

Is domino even around anymore? Btw, WOO! 1911!

 

[Beppo]

A dropped CD can be grabbed using the PickupMenu too. But this wasn't really needed cause the dropped CDs react on a distance check if you try to grab it, you do not need to look at it then.
