Wow, didn't expect to see anyone competing with ACRE. Perhaps we should give this a little test one night?

Hm.. Don't really see the benefits in switching away from a well-known system. Especially with the public-server in mind.

Oh it's not worth switching, not when ACRE2 is just around the corner - but it'd be worth giving this a go anyway just to see what it's like.

Some nice sounding improvements beyond A2 ACRE which even in A2 was still buggy (eg can't set radio to left ear).

Much better looking models, separate radio's for different factions, ability to change direct speech volume (replacing st_volume mod?), automatic TS channel switching. Would be nice to try it out on the private server please.

Some people on the forums report its buggy. When you die the LRR stops working.

We tested it for about an hour, and didn't notice any bugs.


What did you think of it?

I think it is great. The new functionality and ease of use makes it a possible acre-beater for sure. I've been playing on a coop server with it since it came out and we've never had any noticeable bugs.

It should be something you keep an eye on at least, though it hasn't been out in the wild long, so there may be hidden problems. You have a big enough group to test it though...just sayin' ;-)

We've tested it before and did seem quite good. However there were a few bugs (e.g. LR radio not working after respawn) and we didn't see it as being a ACRE-killer. Besides, ACRE2 is in the works (and has been completely rebuilt) and it shouldn't be long until it's released (that's according to the dev himself).

While the Task Force Radio looks good, I see no solid reason to switch - especially with ACRE2 just around the corner :)
