Project Reality v0.86 Upcoming Patch Release

[AgentJadeD]

Well there is a v0.869 test server, and pr 0.869 Core and Levels "available".

[Snazz]

Looking forward to more regular incremental patches now.

The changelog looks good to me, I especially like the scoped minimi (haven't actually seen that in a game before but have held an aussie one IRL) and how helicopters have more of a chance to land.

[Mora]

My biggest concern is this: - various vehicle loadout tweaks on most maps. Because ive heard its quite "extreme".

Also this doesn't seem like a right choice: - Qwai River littlebirds and tanks removed due to low view distance, WZ551A added. But i never really play that map anyway.

But this is a improvement: - Karbala edits to US Mainbase, moved to NE corner of map with large dome of death.
But it doesn't really matter anymore...

[AgentJadeD]

One thing that really annoys me in the Brits Rover. make it handle like a humvee not a Datsan and even that handles better than the Rover.

[FuzzySquirrel]

Why are you removing littlebirds from Qwai? The VD isn't that bad, Also why the UH1N with rockets on Jabal? Those are two reallllly unneeded changes...

[h3killa]

Fuzzhead... You are my new hero.

"added new medic system, after being revived player has a 60s timer, if shot again within this 60s timer, player is killed instead of critically wounded."

If taken literally -> excellent, same medic whoring as before, only now 60 seconds at a time, nice.

[agentscar]

Seeing some good fixes,can't wait.
Great news!

[Snazz]

This is presumably why Qwai's assets were changed:

I personally only ever noticed the helicopter sound bug on Ramiel.

Not a concern to me though, I think the Chinese on Qwai will still have the advantage of a medium APC.

Hot Cant wait to try this new version out!

/btw, how much time did the devs spend making that promo trailer?

[Leeu]

- updated insurgency to delete spawn points on unrevealed caches if the coalition is close (same rules as outposts and hideouts).
- changed Insurgent/Taliban RPG deviation - Increased settle time to 4 seconds (from 2). Accuracy reduced to 25% of what it was.
- increased AKS74U recoil by 50% and deceased accuracy by 30%.
- decreased AK47 accuracy - 30% less accurate than conventional army rifles.

smells like PR is being steered into into some kind of ARMA modern army sim and having INS/Taliban aspects conveniently fall by the wayside.

This looks awesome , just when will it actually be available for download?

You've ruined Qwai.

Removing the tanks and little birds is the absolute dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Asymmetrical balance is a good thing.

So why completley f*ck up the map that is a poster child for asymmetrical balance?

I loved Qwai. It was a different exprience every time I played it because the sides were so different. I could hit slow and heavy with the chinese armor, I could do a speedy offense with the amazing little birds, or I could play underdog tank hunter with the TOW Humvees.

Now you've just made Qwai into another ordinary map, with no exciting bits. Just another boring slogfest.

Honestly, who cares about the view distance? It was fine. This is the exact same thing that happened on Seven Gates and Al Kufrah. You're killing maps with your silly decisions about vehicles and how maps should be played.

I am not happy.

At least give us options. We have map layers for a reason. Make one layer the old version, and make a layer the new version. Everyone's happy.

....agreed

[HughJass]

also, can anyone explain civilian changes? I can't understand the change log....

seems like they are making civ kits even more broken?

[Snazz]

OMG you made that rifle 30% less accurate!!?!!?!/!1/ do you know you're completely destroying the entire mod?

Just stop changing stuff, you should predict what everyone wants and stick with it!

You're ruining everything already, I'm going to say i'm not playing anymore, I mean i'm not playing anymore, it's over, PRs dead now!!!1!

/stupid sarcastic rant

[jim1994]

Can not wait for 0.86

Agreed. Kufrah and Seven Gates are such boring maps now, they used to be a lot more fun. Add Qwai to the list now.

Why do you think insurgency is so popular? Cause it's not apc vs apc.

The attack huey addition to Jabal I welcome though. Long time needed. Kind of silly for that map to be without air support.
