Woot, a forklift. That lean mean killing machine. I want to sneek up on a tank and roll it. :)


I've only tried DC once, and it got pretty boring. Bobcage map, couldn't even get to the front, Helicopters just came in and would kill you.

What we need to try and setup is a BitTorrent or something like that with this file.

I'm in line at FilePlanet at a 50 minute wait. If anyone gets it ahead of time, maybe we can figure something out. I have the web space, but I don't want 300 people downloading a 325MB file off my web space. :)

If someone can host, I'm d/l ing it right now. I can't set up BitTorrent because I'm at work, so don't ask. I'll only be here for another 30 minutes, then I'm at home with a sh1tty upload.

I got 3 minutes left on my download. I can't installed it until I get home, though. I think I also have to upgrade my BF1942 to 1.4.

the question is can you stand on the lift of the fork lift. imagine sitting behind a hill with a driver, and a sniper standing on the lift.
UP bang Down

That would never work on a public Server, the driver would probably get the sniper into position, then ah heck off. :)

I hardly ever get the scouts to spot for the artillery.


I might try and download this, I hope I have enought space to run this and regular BF42 on my laptop.
