Call of Duty - 1.2 patch


Recommended Posts

Its out today and heres what it brought with:-

 

GAMETYPE FIXES

 

1. Behind Enemy Lines

 

- Fixes some allies not showing up on the compass in large servers.

- Fixed a bug that would make enemy indicator on the compass not show up.

- Fixed the killcam window remaining on screen during the black screen when you are about to spawn as an allied player.

- At the end of a round all players show on the same team to make it easier to see how players ranked.

 

2. Search & Destroy

 

- You no longer have a weapon when planting the bomb.

- Planting the bomb near the end of the round stops the round timer, so that the bomb is now the condition for victory.

- Bombs can no longer be planted after a round has been declared over.

- Reaching the timelimit (scr_sd_timelimit) no longer ends the game mid-round.

 

WEAPON & PLAYER FIXES

 

- Adjustments made to the sniper rifles to make them balanced.

- When a player lands after jumping, his/her speed is briefly reduced, making bunny hopping a less effective tactic in multiplayer.

- Adjusted hitboxes on player models to make them more accurate and thus making rifles more effective.

- The number of grenades given to a player is now based on the weapon selected. Sniper rifles provide 1 grenade, Bolt-action rifles provide 3 grenades, and all other weapons provide 2 grenades.

 

NEW FEATURES

 

1. New Gametype - Headquarters

 

- A radio randomly spawns into a map as neutral. Your team must capture a radio by standing near it with no enemies around.

- Your team must control a radio to gain points. A team is awarded 45 points for every 45 seconds it holds the radio.

- Destroying an enemy radio rewards your team with as many points as are left on the reinforcement timer (e.g. if you destroy the radio with 16 seconds left on the reinforcements timer, your team will receive 16 points).

- If your team loses the radio, a new radio will spawn in a different location. This radio is now neutral and must be captured.

- Spawns are regulated by a reinforcement timer, which spawns players in 45 second intervals. This reinforcement timer is displayed on the HUD and players only have to wait until the closest spawn period before rejoining the battle.

 

2. Killcam On/Off

 

- Added server-side cvar scr_killcam to turn on/off killcam

 

3. Disable Freelook Spectating

 

- Added server-side cvar scr_freelook to turn on/off freelook spectator mode

 

4. Disable spectating enemy players

 

- Added server-side cvar scr_spectateenemy to turn on/off spectating the other team while dead

 

5. Force team balancing

 

- Added server-side cvar scr_teambalance to force teams to have the same number of players. Teams with an odd number of players will be as balanced as possible.

(Round based gametypes will adjust the teams between rounds, respawn gametypes will adjust the teams every 60 seconds)

 

6. Shared Friendly Fire

 

-Setting scr_friendlyfire 3 will share damage in cases of friendly fire between the victim and attacker.

 

7. Ban Abilities For Server Administration

 

Uniquely identified players printed in stats logging:

-The log used for stat tracking now includes player unique identifiers so players can be uniquely tracked based on cdkey instead of being tracked by player name. Note that there is no way anyone can determine your cdkey from your GUID.

 

- Server administrators now have the option to Ban players from their server permanently. The banned players are stored in a ?ban.txt? file on the server, which can be manually edited by the server admin.

- The commands "banUser" and "banClient" ban somebody currently playing on a server by their in-game name or client number. This adds the player to "ban.txt,? and kicks them from the server.

- You can unban every uniquely identified player with the name "UnnamedSoldier" using "unban UnnamedSoldier" from the console. If you want to unban a single player whose name appears more than once, you should edit "ban.txt" manually.

- Server administrators also have the option of temporarily banning a player from a server for X amount of time (in seconds). Use the command \sv_kickBanTime to change the length of the ban. This Temp Ban option has also been added to the CallVote menu, allowing players to kick "griefers" and prevent them from simply reconnecting immediately.

 

NOTE: Ban commands are for Internet servers only. They do not function on LAN servers.

 

8. Server Hardware displayed in Server Browser

 

- Added a column with icons displaying what hardware each given server is (Win Dedicated, LINUX, etc).

- Added an indication whether or not the server is modded to the server browser.

 

9. New Server Filters

 

- Added pure server, friendly fire, killcam, server modded, and dedicated only server filters.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: The "Pure Server" filter is set to "Pure Servers Only" by default. When the patch is installed, it will show only pure servers unless you change to another setting. This setting can be found by clicking on "Join Server" and selecting the "Filters" submenu.

 

10. Server Info Screen

 

- On connecting to a server you will now see a server info screen which lists the servername, message of the day, gametype, and current settings appropriate to the gametype.

 

11. Timedemo statistics

 

- Timedemos write a .csv file based on the map name and resolution that says how many milliseconds each frame took. This can be opened directly in a spreadsheet program for benchmarking performance over time.

 

12. New script commands

 

- Added "precacheTurret( turretinfo )" script command to MP.

- Added "spawnTurret( classname, origin, turretinfo )" script command to MP.

- Added "enableWeapon()" and "disableWeapon()" player script commands to MP.

 

13. Allow Downloads

 

There is a new client command in the Multiplayer Options screen called "Allow Downloading." When set to on, connecting to a server that contains a new map or mod will automatically begin downloading the files associated with the map or mod.
