;1253384']"Changed faction name for Chechen Militia to Militia"

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!

They are Chechens so you must call them Chechen Militia!!!

"REALİTY"? if you want reality you must begin with give true name to factions.

It allows for other scenarios, such as brits for militia. This is all because people like you prefer strict storylines over diversified gameplay.

[Sgt.Desert Tiger[TR]]

İn russian maps they must called as Chechens.

;1253384']"Changed faction name for Chechen Militia to Militia"

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!

Because a generic militia faction is far more versatile than one identified as specifically Chechen, hence we can have both Russia and GB fighting them in various places.

;1253384']They are Chechens so you must call them Chechen Militia!!!

Actually they were originally called Militia, they were renamed to Chechens in 0.85 when Russia was introduced.

;1253384']"REALİTY"? if you want reality you must begin with give true name to factions.

If you want reality you have to look away from your screen.

The mod started off simply making BF2 relatively-more-realistic, the working title 'Project Reality' has just been kept for lack of a better name that people can identify.

Because PR kept fictional generic factions like MEC and Insurgents it's always made concessions to realism in that aspect. Which saves development time and allows for more varied scenarios.

;1253406']İn russian maps they must called as Chechens.

No, it's pointless giving the same faction two different names.

[Sgt.Desert Tiger[TR]]

"Actually they were originally called Militia, they were renamed to Chechens in 0.85 when Russia was introduced."

I know that.They can use Chechens name in russian maps instead of Militia and its not pointless.

[Rudd]

None specific names give more scope for creativity. the faction can be realistic without actually being real, case in point is the MEC team

[Snazz]

;1253413']I know that.

Then why are you insisting that they be identified as Chechen?
What is specifically Chechen about them?
Why can't they be any random Eastern European militia?

;1253413']They can use Chechens name in russian maps instead of Militia and its not pointless.

Not saying they couldn't, just saying it wouldn't be worth doing.

What's the point in over-complicating a single faction by giving it two different identities?

It doesn't matter that Russia is fighting a generic militia in PR, they're fighting the US, Canada and Israel as well if you didn't notice. A lot of the scenarios in PR are fictional.

[Adetter]

Since their Militas,doesnt mean their Checens,maybe PR made them non Chechen,maybe their just became Militas in Russian area in 0.9

[SilentWarrior]

Changed deployable asset maximum amount of assets deployable per map for a team (3 TOWs, 12 AAs, 24 HMGs). For AAs and HMGs is more than they can actually place, but still a limitation just in case it gets too much for the server to handle

Say they can actually put all the AAs they can, where do we fly? Can you give us tunnels?

[Amok@ndy]

you can fly in a tunnel ? needs to be a big one

[AnRK]

Helicopters having lots of HP to survive crash has been in the build since v0.85 afaik....

its just the water damage changed in v0.9

Ah fair enough, I don't recall it being mentioned before in any of the changelogs that's all.

[Drop_Deadx]

Oh. Miiiiiiiiiiii. Gawd!

[SgtBragg]

im very excited for the 0.9! but no muttrah city? thats a very popular map, im surprised its done! why not just change the mec to a different faction?

[Snazz]

no muttrah city?

Muttrah City wasn't removed, it just hasn't been changed. Hence it's not mentioned on the changelog.

[SgtBragg]

Muttrah City wasn't removed, it just hasn't been changed. Hence it's not mentioned on the changelog.

thank you!

[T.Nightingale]

So Artillery doesn't destroy ammo caches now?

[LiquidWatch]

hmm.. so was the explosion of the apc in the trailer with the hamas soldier a pipebomb or IED you see in PR..or are they the same in 0.9?

[Rapier]

Quick question, please, please, PLEASE, tell me that the co-pilot in a Chinook can open the back entry way, similar to the Merlin on Basrah in .75? PLEASE!! I miss that.

[mosinmatt]

I never fly. But I would like to see choppers be able to survive being shot down more. Obviously crashign head first so destroy it and all.

One thing I am wondering. The ROE for unarmed kits (like the pilot) are the same as the collaborator, right?
Well, does that mean insurgents are not allowed to shoot a pilot outside of the ROE?

[Meza82]

i hope this is not a stupid question: why change name from "Chechen militia" to "militia"? i like playing as the Chechens, they a real fighting force and are hardcore
