I have a question.

Are Canada and British forces friendly? I suppose they are. If so;

In the new settings British forces fight with Chechen forces which is the enemy of Russians. But, on the other side Canadian forces fight with Russians.

So, in this case, it seems like British forces are helping Russia by eliminating their enemy (Chechens) or, at least, keeping them busy. Thus betraying Canada?

Is there an explanation for this?

Well in the PR Tournament, I think that Chechen Rebels are considered a BLUFOR faction. This is only based off of what I've heard so you might have to check that out. That being said, it still doesn't explain why the British and the Chechen's are fighting seeing that by my logic, they're both BLUFOR

simple explaination, the world is not black/white, there still is something inbetween, and while russia and canada are fighting the north for oil, and russia is trying to grow by fighting the chechens, the british forces still try to eliminate the danger of weapons of mass destruction in the hands of chechen militia

What a danger while Russia is standing right next to Chechens with shitloads of weapons of mass destruction.

seriously, you should not take me by word, its just been a quick suggestion how the storyline, if there would be one, clould look like. maybe it would help, to see the chechens as a random westasian militia, just as they where originaly meant to be

If u guys care about the back story (which doesnt exist) so much U could think that the battles happen in diff years, like at 1st its every1 vs taliban/chechenz, and a few years later something happened and it became every1 vs Russia (US, Canada, IDF and many other upcoming factions)

also IDF fight russians, russians fight chech, chech fight GB, GB is allied with US and both countries are allied with israel, so what happened to the enemy of my enemy is my friend? or bigger question, since GB , and chech are[for now] NATO armies in the tourny, and i bet CATA wont get the IDF[wont make much sense] and probaly not Canada than who plays who as russians/chech forces in tourny?

It has become apparent that some people are not happy with the new map changes, as such I believe it appropriate to remind everyone of the forum alert level:
Level is currently at OMG

None of you have played these new maps and do not know how they will play out. The British vs Chechnyans/Militia thing was always part of the mod since either faction was added, and there is a proper backstory to it, concerning weapons dealers and such.

Speculation involves assumptions, and remember: when you assume you make a *** out of u and me.

Massive quote reply post:
Truism wrote:MEC seem to be being written out of the game. Which is a huge shame, as they're easily the coolest faction owing to their battlerifleness.
Any future AAS map set in the middle east can have MEC on it, so expect to see more of them. For example Rudd's making a 4x4km desert map with MEC that will eat Kashan for breakfast.
Truism wrote:I can't understand taking OGT and stuff out.
The reasons have been explained numerous times by DEVs.
Truism wrote:MEC and China are integral parts of this mod
I consider them to be integral parts of vanilla BF2, kept and updated for PR due to convenience. They've had years of playtime so it's fair that new factions get more maps.
DrugKoala wrote:What, no Sangin? Have I missed somewhere what's going on with it?
No DEV ever said it was finished yet. Detailed, unprecedented, 4x4km Afghanistan maps take a lot more time than we can imagine.
Oak wrote:AAS and Infantry versions both report the same map size... not sure if that's intentional or not.
Because the map size is the same, only the field of battle changes.
Scheintot887 wrote:Yes BUT Kashan Desert remembered on the Golf War....
Lol 'Golf War', The Gulf War was against Iraq. Kashan is actually in Iran and MEC doesn't exist.

[quote=""'[R-DEV"]motherdear;1239451']because it's not the chechens fighting.[/quote]
This needs to be cleared up because everyone here is thinking they are Chechens. Which is natural because the flags are the same and in the highlight reel image of Iron Ridge it says Chechen Militia.

[quote="Arquin""]I wish for the day you will introduce EU faction ^^! [/quote]
That's been suggested countless times, It's not going to happen.
Arquin wrote:seems to me that the only maps are either woodlands or desert.
There are at least 10 maps with urban areas on them, out of 23 total. As well as a jungle island, industrial area, farmland and mountain valleys.

wow


love all the new maps and the variations on all the maps too! so many possibilities, i just hope that server owners are sensible enough to run layers other then AAS/Insurgency standard.

integration of SP and COOP looks fun too, can take anger out on bots when things aren't working out too well



brits back on fools again <3 and Russian air powaaaaaaaaaaaa! and amphibious assault, awesome

really can't wait to play

It was just a little something extra released until .9 came out.

Russ vs chechen was ok... why you change it? Project REALITY<- ?
In Red Alert 2 i made own custom map, and in the map i made script where 2 cargo planes crashed into skycrapers, infact if i remember correctly, those 2 biggest skycrapers what Redalert 2 had was named as "world trade center" in the map editor... year or so later, it happened in real life =) true story.
