Make Helmand's Return an Official Map

JDMT · Post by **JDMT** » 2009-06-14 03:14

I played in the Helmand's Return community match(This was a while ago), and I really thought it was a great map, and I think it should be converted to Insurgency and be made official, seeing as it was an original map(unlike Desert Rats, or Raid of Fallujah). Besides, we only have one British Insurgency map anyways.

I'd love this map to be offical. It would be perfect for seeding servers when the population is around 32

It's the UN/Judge kit.

When it was a Community Match Map there was 64 guys, it was crazy.

I agree! I didn't play the match but the map looks great!

It wasnt original but judging from those screens it is much improved.

i always liked this map back when it was in PR. i think it would be even better now with all the improvements that have been made to the brits and taliban.

Well it was a great map but i think it would be too small for insurgency imo. The spaces availabe for cache spawning would be too limited and it would be very possible you destroy one turn a corner and there is another one.

Just BG vs Tali, no caches, normal skirmish, would fit into this map IMO

Bring this back DEV's... go on...you know you want to

Its not an original map and its waaay too small for insurgency, consider how many people whine about getting killed coming out of US main on Fallujah and x2 you get this.

Too small for AAS and for public servers.

Plus we have Sangin coming, 4x4km^2 of epicness why would we need this?

Am I the only one that didn't actually ever like Helmand? It was quite small and spammy and had problems with an inability to manoeuvre as a result.

I mean if the devs want it in then fine but I'm not sure it really fits the PR modus operandi anymore.

JDMT · Post by **JDMT** » 2009-06-14 12:12

You guys need to think of the servers like Blackwater, and other servers that run small maps when the population is low. This would be great for that, I doubt anyone would enjoy having 64 guys on it.

i would like to see it come back, but only with a player limit and without any vehicles, because its really a nice map for 12 on 12, but with more players it just gets chaotic and unrealistic

You mean like a bigger Skirmish map?

back in the day i alway's used to just set up a car with a 50cal and camp, i never got tired of that and i alway's cleaned up too got like 15 kills 2 death and that as average total too,

Im alway's open to this map coming back i mean most people have forgotten what i did to them in helmand's valley but iv not i want to do it again, and again until my palms are hairy and i go blind. there was nothing quite as fun as camping that map with a 50cal and shotting up an entire team of smelly taliban.

SF kit Was the Officials kit (refs) for the event.... the map is too small yes i know its good game play but it would have to be tweeked a bit more to first move way from the event game play and 2 make it a little more realisitc the Britt main wasnt exactily realistic

Make it a Skrim map

JDMT · Post by **JDMT** » 2009-06-14 17:24

If it isn't going to make it to PR-MP, how about PR-SP?

Post by **Rudd** » 2009-06-14 17:49

Could always just make it a nice map with UK Vs MEC

Its a lovely looking map and deserves to be used if you ask me.

Admins would clearly only use it for small pops/seeding.

Agreed if we want helmand back, re-edit make it larger or let it die
