Title: Frontlines: Fuel of War v1.3.0 Patch
Post by: rip|MightyMax on November 07, 2008, 09:27:24 AM

Just a heads up....

This was a cool single player game, the multi player had so many bugs it just was not worth it....

But what caught my eye today is the size of the new patch ......


File Size: 929.21 MB (974,345,291 Bytes)

Now that is a patch!!!   


To be fair it does include a bunch of stuff

Quote
Patch 1.3.0 includes the following features:

New Map – Hindsight

New Map – Sunder

New Map – Wide Awake

New Map – Infiltration

New Vehicle – WC AB-11 Bomber Jet
- The AB-11 is a medium-range bomber that is loaded with 6 cluster bombs. These bombs will devastate nearly anything they hit. To aid in bombing runs, the AB-11 includes a bomber cam which aims directly at the ground, no matter how the jet is positioned in the air. The AB-11 also includes a rapid-fire cannon in the nose for clearing infantry and tanks. The engines of the AB-11 include dual elrons to allow for faster turns. When compared to the WC fighter jet, the AB-11 is not as fast, but far more maneuverable. The AB-11 is also stealthed against missile lock-on’s.
- To use Bomber Cam - Hold Middle Mouse Button while in exterior view

New Vehicle – RS MRB-131 Bomber Jet
- To compete with the Western Coalition’s AB-11, the Red Star have developed their own bomber, the MRB-131. This bomber is designed with one purpose: unleash as much firepower into the enemy as possible. Small and maneuverable, the MRB-131 carries a front-mounted cannon for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat. On its wings are a pair of forward-firing rocket launchers, similar to the Red Star attack helicopter. The Red Star MRB-131 also includes a rear-mounted camera, so the pilot can see an enemy approaching from behind.
- To use Rear-view Cam - Hold Middle Mouse Button while in exterior view

New Weapon – Anti-Air Rocket Launcher
- The Anti-Air Rocket fires a high velocity projectile designed to cripple enemy aircraft. Though the rocket has no target lock, the rockets are built with a proximity detect which will detonate the rocket if it is near a target. The rocket will cause damage to a nearby enemy aircraft, but it will do more damage if the target is hit directly. Though they are lethal against jets and heli’s, they have a hard time punching through land vehicle armor.

Leaderboard Fix has been implemented for the Roles and Loadout tabs – They now record both Ranked & Unranked game information

Server Browser has been fixed and will now only show legitimate Ranked servers.
