A slightly more approximate date to the release?

How many weapons? How many packs?

Will the new weapon selection option be released with the weapon packs?

I know that you probably want Mike to answer this but... they should be out in a couple weeks. 2 packs, one free with 5 weapons the other 7.99 with 15 weapons. the new selection will be out after (not with) the 2 new packs. 2 known names of the weapons are snowball fight and driver mass.

not driver mass, mass driver. does that matter? No, but the kid should know the truth

It's inspired by Babylon 5, and those of you who are fans should recognize it as something that would be pretty cool to see. :)

Speaking of the new weapons pack, is there any way to actually AIM the Mass Driver? Seems like it just goes wherever it wants to.

I think that it pretty much goes where a normal shell would, but with a few strange properties. A few times it has actually hit me though! And, I fired it horizontaly and it seemed to go through the dirt and hit somewhere else. I'm not actually sure though. :)

Mass Driver is random. It's basically supposed to be an asteroid launched from space, hence, not great accuracy. There's really no way to control where it lands.

Man, it often goes where I'm aiming though. :)

Kinda what I thought. Ok, one more question please, on the third starting page (I think) where you set "difficulty" is there really any difference? I can't tell any difference if I set it at "1" or at "10".

I believe it is meant to affect the CPU AI's "intelligence".

Yeah the computer seems more accurate at lvl10 then at lvl1

With 165 weapons the ones we want to use do not come up often. Isn't there some way to toggle their availibility on and off so the random selection of 20 won't even see the ones we don't want them too???

I believe that the next version of BT will have a "weapon switch" that allows for what you're asking.

The AI is accurate enough at level 1!! I don't want him to be any more accurate, I'd NEVER win.

Heh, I lose to the level 10 AI about less than 1%...
