its original, but won't work. the hijacker code kills the hijacker in the process. there is no "get out" because the hijacker no longer exsists.

This is hard coded in the engine.

Why not just make him "Capture" the vehicle.
Then make it so he's "Inside of it"

Just kill the hero you got/put him in an insivable transport.
then when it's done create a new hero/evac him.

Besides they would not change fuck all unless it makes them money, they don't care about how good or reliable the games are its all about money and getting as meny games outa on the shelf as possable.

do EA people go back on their old games?

[Phoenix911]

EA will only do what is profitable, they will release patchs for a set time trying to fix watever they can (not enough as they always release most games with some problems not intensionalty) But even with these updates they do they always seem to miss some of the most ovbuose problems.

And after a game in there eyes seems old or not profitable they stop making patchs for it.

yes that was a very big misstake but not EA is that low to just ignore a problem

[Ubermedic]

Yeah. But it took them four days to release a patch.

But that can not be helped they can't just release a pach a few mins after.. heaven forbid because they would look like they actuly work.

[Pendaelose]

It probably took a day or two to find out about the crash. Then it took a day or two to find and fix it. THEN after it was found and fixed it has to be handed over to the ditrobution group who adds all the disclaimers and then publishes it to the website. Theres alot of red tape before releasing anything official. Even if the next patch was ready in 5 minutes it could take 4 days to get the red tape cleared.

[Phoenix911]

But still they can't be seen to be doing anything

[Pendaelose]

More likely they had to bring in more cages of monkeys to get the job done. If the first patch blew out thier first load of monkeys it could take days to capture and train more.

[Phoenix911]

the monkeys went on strike because they ran outta bananas

[CPT.TIKER]
