You're supposed to be afraid of the tanks and they should be the toughest thing to take down and don't they sit far away out of reach of RPG's and sappers in RL?mosinmatt wrote: What I am most scared of are the TANKS.

On Al basra the tanks are always the toughest thing to take down. They can sit way way far away out of reach of RPGs, and sappers.

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
Youd be suprised to see how many people go with the iron sight/aimpoint kits. Several insurgency maps I go with them because when your getting to the caches it gets to be cqb and you can sight in and put accurate shots in rather than spraying wildly.mosinmatt wrote:From what I remember, you can get an aimpoint or irons instead of the acog or eclan. I personally do not see this being used much, as blufor LOVES sniping with the SAW and ACOG m4s.

Me too. In fact, I usually like picking up insurgent kits. See how they like havign molotovs thrown at them! hehe\Of course, I play with you, so you know that. haha'= wrote:H[=ElvishKnight;1249332']Youd be suprised to see how many people go with the iron sight/aimpoint kits.

I also prefer the specialist kit. Hooks and shotgun FTW. Also handy in case you run into a civilian squad.

Im really looking forward to the Russia vs US map. Im going to love to shoot down Americans with my SVD as they are parachuting down. BTW is the plane they are parachuting out of an NPC or can you fly it?

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
I have a question regarding this update.
In addition to this I have two other questions that can not be quoted from post.
1. Can civilian still be arrested without any reason just like current setting?
2. Kit Drop option can drop all kind of kit even the default kit? If so this will be great addition as you can now pursue enemy to drop weapon.
I thought PR is about Long round and Unbalance. If I recall correctly, on last update the objective was to move game slowly, but now we are trying to shorten round and balance the forces?The maximum number of Weapon Caches needed to be destroyed by coalition forces was lowered from 10 to 7 caches. Also the amount of tickets gained from destroying a cache was increased from 10 to 25 tickets. This change will hopefully make rounds either shorter or more balanced.
Wouldn't this cause spawn camping for shooting civilian inside of mosque?The civilian collaborator kit rules were also tweaked so that coalition forces can only engage them inside the ROE if they executed any of these actions in the last minute:
-Respawned in the game

1. He is wondering if you can still arrest civilians ingame (with handcuffs) without any penalty. I haven't seen anyone say otherwise, so I'd suppose so.mosinmatt wrote:Blufor already spawn camps the ins main.

2. He is asking if you can drop the default rifleman kit. (at least I think so) If so yeah I think you can.

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
It isn't fun either when you know who is going to win from the start. Also, now it seems like many insurgent players don't take defense seriously, but only seeks to kill enemies for fun. Perhaps this will improve that.I thought PR is about Long round and Unbalance. If I recall correctly, on last update the objective was to move game slowly, but now we are trying to shorten round and balance the forces?

its not inbalance, its asymmetry
(assuming the teams have equal skill)
inbalance is giving one team a higher probability of winning than the other
asymmetry is having different capabilities on each side, but still an EQUAL CHANCE OF WINNING.
I don't think PR has ever been about forcing long rounds, rather about having rounds that are long enough to be strategically substantial.

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
Like the command and control mode, bought time ya got rid of those nasty control points. and just got every thing cartelised, Don't have to juggle with those control points so we can now focus of keeping on organised.
Commander tent, will probably be well used on the command and control mode.
AAS, Don't know but it sounds good. What the thing needed was less effaces on control points and more on keeping the team organised.
Vehicle, Now that sounds like fun.

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
I think many of the complaints about the new collaborator ROE, specifically how you can shoot them if they have just respawned, are missing a very important point. As Blufor, you don't know if a collaborator has just respawned unless you actually see them respawning, which is very unlikely. The idea is to stop collabs just spawning on a cache as it's being blown up and costing Blufor points and intel.

because that map is originally set for the german faction which should be ready not long after 0.9 is released.

Re: [Gameplay] PR v0.9 Updates
But they dont lose points for killing a civvi thats the reason most people just shoot the "annoying" civvi in the first place because there isnt (and still wont be in the new release) any kind of real punishment imo.Jedimushroom wrote:I think many of the complaints about the new collaborator ROE, specifically how you can shoot them if they have just respawned, are missing a very important point.

Exactly. They do not know if they just spawned! So guess what that means? Booger hook off the bang switch.Jedimushroom wrote:I think many of the complaints about the new collaborator ROE, specifically how you can shoot them if they have just respawned, are missing a very important point.

Plus, we still have not been told the penalties, if any, there will be.
Losing intel, longer respawn for the blufor, and can't select a new kit are fine in my opinion.
