Unbalance the sides?

Post by zuka »

Hey,

Is it possible in BF2 to unbalance the sides at all? To make it 2-1 or even 3-1 odds against a certain team?

As you guys probably know, the AI is so overwhelmingly, wretchedly stupid that this is the only way to make co-op fun

cheers

Sure there is :D have the host of your game open the Fake Console, and look for the "Set Reinforcement count for team 1" (or 2, which ever team you want to increase), and type the number of reinforcements you want.

Or turn AI autobalance on. What that will do is make the AI harder or easier, depending on who's winning and who's losing.

It is usually on by default.

I was thinking more in terms of having it so the reenforcement numbers would be the same for both sides, but one side only have 16 AI units at one time whereas the other has 32. Is that possible?

The real question is "how much do you want to do?"

The answer to your first post would have been - if being succinct - "no, not in the stock game." What is it you want to do? Are you looking to make a new set of mods to do this? Do you just want to use the 1.3 patch?

You can do it with either of the above - it's much easier and you have much better control if you simply make your own mod, but I'm sure that you can probably set the unitcount for one side lower with the 1.3 patch since you can write code in midgame.

We play with the conversion pack, so that has fake console in it, is that what you're talking about?

Thanks
