Salute to an era bygone!

Although I didn't play PR back then, I can still appreciate the feeling that video instills. I imagine at the time that the 0.5 trailer generated a lot of hype prior to it's release, but now that video seems to serve as more of a memory of what once was. The song is very fitting that it is exciting yet melancholic at the same time, this is indeed a fitting title for this thread.

Actually, i'd like to see this release as the return of 0.75. Finally the things that nearly killed PR for me has been undone, and it's been greatly remade into something fun again.

(I'm offcourse talking about Civillian spawntimes, out of seat commanders and decreased spawn penalties...)

Basically I'm glad to see a PR update that tones down the punishing mecanichs instead of the opposite (which has been the case with just about EVERY major release) That + the new streamlined balance, factions, weapons, maps, graphics, huds and thingamajigs will probably make this the best release of PR yet.

Heh, I chose this video for a college project, redoing the whole soundtrack, I might post it here when it's done... if it's not too **** of course.
Chose this trailer because it -was- the best PR trailer I could find.

[Ironza]

0:48-0:55, is the selling point of that trailer... not that it sells anything that is!=D

The music fits so well with every clip used... makes me wish I had got into PR sooner.

Well, I think the thing is PR is too streamlined for the uber-hardcore-realism gamer now....geared more for accuracy than just plain ol fun. I mean, realistically you wont have an A10 buzzing around a 2km patch of land (Basrah), so that justifies removing it. But my GOD, was it fun!!!

I'd have to say that with PR overall. Reinstatement of many air vehicles is so needed...

I soooo second that.

[Gooze]

Lots of memories.

Whats the song again? ;D

The funny thing is that threads about 0.5 trailer always come up during new releases.
New trailer is quite nice too.

Dangerous business since 1979- The legion of doom.

[Wakain]

yeah guys mao valley got me hooked, not necessarilly to pr for I played it since like... 0.3 but it got me hooked to the marksman kit

[darklord63]

I was just watching this today, because I can't wait for 0.9. Why can't the 0.9 trailer be that?!?!?! SO GOOD! CAN'T WAIT! NEED CROWS

[Rezza]

I started back in 0.5 man...

You know when pr gets more than a game after a while?

[Rabbit]

I started back when mashtuur city had night vision and the trailer for the suv in it.

[cfschris]

Anyone remeber VIP Escort gamemode? LOL

Good times.....bring em back RCOM guys! MOAR RETRO NIGHTS

[Sex_Cactus]

Very awesome.

What's that song and who's it by? I've heard it a bunch of times but never got the name.

[STORM-Mama]

and the trailer for the suv in it.

That was the menu-video for 0.5 aswell, IIRC.

[Outlawz7]

and last but not least 1337 SpecOps missions w/ silenced pistols of pwnge!!!!!!

Incorrect, the Spec Ops kit only had the silenced sidearms in 0.75 and 0.8

[quote=""'[R-CON"]Rudd;1251229']^ the Best PR trailer in PR history (though I think AD's video editing is better now than then)

Umm, Maitros made the 0.5 trailer, not AfterDune. And the quality is pretty good considering there was no HQ or HD available on YouTube 3 years ago

[quote="General_J0k3r""]mao was awesome and should be brought back with the new grass statics [/quote]

Doubt they'd work on the slopes and Mao worked fine with undergrowth since the map was small and dense.

Yes it was.

I distinctly recall Mao Valley being awful because if you went up to the top of the hill in centre you couldn't see the grass in the valley below; so everyone diving for cover was just an easy kill
