- Update Notes:
- This is the second update for World in Conflict, primarily adding new
- functionality for server administration, updates to Massgate and fixes to
- various performance and stability issues.
- New features:
- - Several new Admin Commands have been added to give Server Admins increased
- control. For details on each of the individual commands and how to use them,
- please visit our forums at www.massgate.net.
- - A time delay of 20 seconds has been added between Assault rounds.
- - Clan officers can now invite other players to the clan, as well as kick
- Grunts.
- - A successful map vote will now change the map instantly.
- - Two new permanent chat rooms have been added to Massgate for clan war and
- few player mode matters.
- - Players should now get an in-game notification when receiving an "Instant
- Message".
- Units and balancing:
- - The cost for the "Heavy Air Support" Tactical Aid has been reduced from
- 30/50/70 to 25/45/65.
- - Score from repairing your own non-repair units has been reduced by 50%.
- Bug fixes:
- - Fixed a crash that could occur directly after map load (on systems not
- supporting Pixel Shader 2.0). Was released on the forums as a Hotfix.
- - Fixed crashes that could occur on localized versions (languages other
- than English).
- - "Solo VOIP" (to specific player(s)) checkbox now stays enabled when
- exiting score sheet.
- - Players who experience occasional freezes/lockups can now try to append
- "-stabilityfactor 10" (without the quotes) to the target path of the WIC
- shortcut. It can also be toggled in the console (in-game) by typing
- StabilityFactor 10. The number 10 can be decreased or increased if users
- want to experiment (StabilityFactor 0 turns the feature off).
- - The game now defaults to full Field-of-View for Widescreen resolutions
- (such as 16:9). The widescreen Field-of-View from Update 1 can be used by
- appending "-widescreenscale" (without the quotes) to the target path of the
- WIC shortcut.
- - Entering the Mega-Map no longer resets changes to the camera settings.
- - Better feedback to players that are moved to the other team as a result
- of "Team Auto-Balance".
- - Players should no longer experience disconnects when selecting a role
- that has already reached its cap.
- - Players should no longer experience disconnects when buying more units
- than they had credits for. This could occur if a player “resupplied” and
- then ordered more troops before the server had responded.
- - Players should no longer experience disconnects when ordering more
- Tactical Aid weapons than they could afford. This could happen if a player
- ordered two different Tactical Aid weapons before the server responded.
- - Added Dynamic Lag Margin, activated by appending "-lagmargin" (without
- the quotes) to the target path of the WIC shortcut. This increases the
- lag margin to a maximum of 0.45 at packet loss / variation in ping.
- - Updated the NATO heavy helicopter texture.
