The higher your post count is the higher your rank is.

Well the moderation makes it a bit more tricky as you can get banned. So it's not That easy, and there's still a bit of challenge at the end.

Why would they remove one of the best maps in PR?

A lot of the flag layouts need working on. Double cap flags don't work when there is a 600m distance between them.

I mean in general can't we not have a night only layer of some maps such as Kashan and Kamis? Thus to even add in night vision goggles if possible ?? I'm quite optimistic so bare with me.
Imagine watching the quads on the bunkers on kamis firing into the night. That would be a great scene.

NVGs are a bit of a bugger, probably could be done but the team members with the relevant skillset for that kind of coding are no longer working on BF2 afaik, and it would be a massive amount of work, and it also requires alot of work map side.

If we had NVGs I think the work mapside on night layers would be worth it, but for now we have it for variety's sake

Just add in a nightlayer for the large desert maps anyway! You have for Fools & The Falkands

Can any dev answer this question?

Its VERY hard to build a navmesh around overgrowth. If you look at the current coop levels it tries to avoid a lot of overgrowth, Ia Drang is pretty much only overgrowth.

Playing the against AI in wooded areas is frustrating because they see through the trees and you can't. So they'll be shooting at you even though there's no line of sight.

What does the Press kit do? I was just watching one of dbzao's videos and saw someone running around with a black helmet that said "PRESS" on it. Do you have a camera with multiple levels of zooms or what?

Post by **AfterDune** » 2014-04-14 10:59

Yeah, something like that indeed. It's basically a camera kit.

The only way to get it is through rcon commands I'm guessing?

from a concept point of view, do the DEVs for BF2, A3, and PR2 hold regular meetings to discuss where they want PR to go as a "brand of gameplay"? Or are you guys independent in terms of that too?
