Gameplay

General elements: Supplies, FOB's, Rally Points, Binocs, Medic

• Added light and heavy supply crates (Heavy crates unchanged from 0.98; light supply crates function as half a heavy crate's value, both when reloading ammo and building assets).
• Added Timed Demolition Charges to destroy deployables, caches and breach doors.
• Added alternate commo-rose option to the shovel, allowing players to demolish friendly foxholes and razor wire segments. Squad Leaders can demolish and completely remove all assets, using the radio.
• Added new Vehicle Disabling System, which doesn't always disable the vehicle completely anymore, but certain parts.
• Added ability to revive wounded soldiers in shallow water.
• Added rally point support mechanics. If a rally point is not within 2 large grid squares of a captured flag, friendly apc, or friendly firebase, it will expire after a minute. Otherwise, it will never expire.
• Updated rally point overrun distances to be 1 small grid square.
• Updated FOBs and hideouts to be overrun when two enemies are nearby instead of three.
• Updated FOBs and hideouts so they can no longer be destroyed by knifing the radio.
• Updated supply crates so they can only be effectively destroyed by heavy weapons (.50 cal and such), explosives (including grenades) and shotguns.
• Updated foxholes so they provide better cover from mortar fire.
• Updated CSB requirements so you can deploy one CSB from one "CSB crate", enabling logistics trucks to build two CSBs from one full load.
• Updated Shovel to allow the defusal of grenade traps.
• Updated Commander markers; can now be placed rapidly.
• Updated UAV system; it now takes only five seconds to redeploy while on station.
• Updated Flares, distracting AAs better now.
• Updated wrench model to be a tool bag instead.
• Increased rearm time of rally point from one to five minutes, when overrun.
• Decreased amount of field dressings for medics to 6 (from 12).
  

Advance And Secure (AAS)

• Updated flag capture speed to use the exact ratio of attackers to defenders.
  

Insurgency (INS)

• Updated cache spawning system: unknown caches do not physically spawn in the game until BLUFOR collects enough intel points. The cache will then spawn, and the insurgents will have five minutes to establish defenses before player spawns are blocked and the cache location is revealed to BLUFOR. Intel points collected while both cache locations are known will count towards revealing the following cache; therefore, sometimes after a cache is destroyed, the new unknown cache may immediately trigger and physically spawn into the game, becoming revealed five minutes later.
• Updated weapon caches so they're harder to destroy (Only C4, IED's, bomb vehicles, and direct hits with aircraft bombs and missiles will destroy them). The Breacher and Combat Engineer kits are the only infantry kits equipped to demolish caches.
• Updated the max number of Civilians you can't kill before being arrested within a 10 minute timeframe to 4. After this timelapse, your kill history is cleaned up.
• Increased needed Intel to reveal a cache to 150%.
• Decreased the total number of caches from 7 to 5.
  

Co-Operative (COOP)

• Added SP/COOP support for (almost) all maps.
  

Binaries (and PR Menu)

• Added PR Launcher, an entirely new way to launch the game, developed from the ground up specifically for PR:BF2. The launcher handles a lot of functionality, such as accounts and profile settings, as well as several ingame features including the compass marker system, BUIS system, and PR Mumble "who's talking" list.
• Added PR Updater, as well as PR Server Updater, to provide streamlined automatic updating for clients and servers. If an update is available, a prompt will be displayed the next time you launch the game. Server admins will receive specific instructions on how to use the server updater.
• Added new PR Mumble, now completely integrated into the game
• no separate install required! It will automatically launch in the background when you finish loading into a supported server.
• Added support for decentralized PR Mumble, so PR:BF2 server providers can run their own PR Murmur server, and supports both Windows and Linux servers.
• Added 100 player support for both Windows and Linux servers, as well as 8 player squads.
• Added new intro movie.
• Added new background movie (in the menu).

Sieht mal richtig Fett aus, denke wird mal wieder Zeit das Dingen anzuschmeißen. Eigentlich sollte man DICE mal das unter die NAsenreiben und den Zeigen warum gerade mods so wichtig sind. Ohne MOds wären die nicht da, wo Sie jetzt sind.
