Sir Finkus 10 Posted July 1, 2009 First off, love the game. I've been playing through the campaign and it has been fantastic so far. I do have a small gripe though. You can't give your team orders when you are radioing headquarters, or even when the helicopter pilot is saying something. This has gotten me killed quite a few times. I kind of realize the rationale behind this (not talking over the commander), but realistically if you are riding in helicopter flying over an enemy encampment, and aforementioned encampment is firing on the helicopter quite effectively, AND this encampment just happens to trigger a fairly lengthy dialog session with the commander, you should be able to interrupt the commander and tell the pilot NOT to land 50 meters west of the enemy. Couple that with the fact that this particular camp also triggered an autosave, I had to roll back a few hours or get killed while listening to coops and the officer leisurely discuss the situation.

CarlGustaffa 4 Posted July 2, 2009 Maybe it would be sufficient just to redesign the autosave points? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GRS 10 Posted July 2, 2009 Agreed. I ran into a patrol of 8-10 and tried telling me guys not to fire and let them pass by to save ammo but there was a dialog, so they fired. Long story short I got hit and the retarded corpsman never came he just ran on by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Finkus 10 Posted July 2, 2009 Maybe it would be sufficient just to redesign the autosave points? They could probably use some work too, maybe instead of saving automatically it should ask you if you want to save there. Personally, I haven't been screwed over by the autosave nearly as often as being unable to give orders during dialog. I mean, unskippable dialog is annoying enough after the 3 or 4th time hearing it, but even more annoying when you can't tell your fireteam to do anything.

frederf 0 Posted July 2, 2009 The autosave should have a 10 second countdown so you know to get cover or not be in the middle of a danger area right when it locks up your machine for no reason. Also, tip, don't have a save while looking through the UAV... totally F's you up. I wish I could just turn off autosaves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EDcase 87 Posted July 2, 2009 YES!!! Not being able to give orders with character dialog playing is REALLY ANNOYING. We should be able to skip the auto dialog at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
