That means I have to wait five and a half hours until I can blow someone's tank up with a big ol' monkey wrench.

» sound

is anyone else experiencing no sound effects from the added weapons? this is really dumb. in my opinion, one of the most important things in a video game is sound effects.



overall, the patch is crap. too bad its not optional.

yea erikbirk2 I can hear sounds.



The biofield mine thing is really kool. You can throw it on a tank or keep and ride into the enemy base with the smoke going everywhere +].



The new paints are kool too (overall this update is kool)

» yeah...

the start up music is new and cool, remember me a star wars movie lol. About hearing sounds when you get a weapon I can hear it too like eclipse said.



I played two non rated games to see the new things and I have a question. Where is the biofields located that I can't see it and how a change again the knive again when I get the wrench?
