  1. I purchased the CD over a week ago and still have not received it. I don't think there is a problem. It just takes three to four weeks to arrive.

    Isn't there already a point system? I recall seeing a column with points at the end of the game.

    In lieu of being denied a kill because someone scuttled or disconnected, it would be nice if each player could see what they had accomplished during the fight. For instance, if a hit that you scored disabled the engine on an enemy vehicle, let me know that at the end of the game. I guess it comes down to whether or not you want to see what actually happened when it's all over.

  3. I recently downloaded the newest demo version of DropTeam. I recently purchased the game and while I await its arrival, I figured I would get some practice in.

    One thing I noticed that's a bit annoying is that it's hard to get credit for a kill. I certainly do my share of getting killed, but when I actually get another player's vehicle to the point where its virtually incapacitated and I'm about to finish the job, the opposing player simply scuttles their vehicle or disconnects, thereby denying me the credit of taking them out.

    I have been gauging my performance on how many times I died vs how many kills I scored. The aftergame report that comes up when time runs out shows this ratio. I know I would have done better if the opposing players whose vehicles I incapacitated, didn't just start again before the game pronounced them dead.

    Are there any thoughts on this out there in DropTeam land?

    Looking forward to getting the full-blown version of the game.

    MikeyD,

    The same bmp is missing in your late Tiger which causes the lid, but not the sides of the box to appear.

    In reference to the missing bmp, is the late version Tiger supposed to have the box on the back or not?

    I re-downloaded the late version today, 6/13, and still see a vague outline of a box. I'm assuming that what I'm seeing is the shell that can't be altered by any modder no matter how gifted they are.

    If I'm wrong, let me know.

    Thanks!

  5. My system specs are almost identical to JasonC's. I just recently experienced a problem where my machine would simply shut off. I re-seated all of the cards, memory, processor and the problem went away. I found a RAM module was loose, the clip was not fully clamped down.

    Just thought I would throw this in. Sounds like this problem is a bit different, but you might want to check this out.

    Good luck!
