New idea for Project Reality

[CardellB]

Today I was playing Insurgents x BAF and I had a great idea!

If you devs could make a map on which both teams were insurgents, for example HAMAS vs ISIS it would be great!

First, it would be a type battle that I don't remember seeing in any game! (they actually fight between each other, so it would still be a realist situation)

And second, it would be great because it would have sides that are technologically balanced (a good US/IDF/BAF team easily owns those badly equipped insurgents, while when both sides have equal technology levels, it depends only on the players).

This is another idea I have:
Also, if you guys don't mind, I suggest you also make smaller maps, so you would attract new players that are used to the fast-paced games from today (i.e. Battlefield).

Also, thanks and CONGRATULATIONS for the INCREDIBLY AWESOME mod that PR is!
I wish you all devs all the best!
And what do you guys from the community think?

Underscored the first problem and then Highlighted the biggest problem with what you just said...

Thanks.

I think you will enjoy the following maps:

Hill 488 (Vietnam)
Gaza Beach
Asad Khal

They are all small (1km), have not many armoured assets, and provide some fun infantry CQB fighting.

I don't understand why that would be a problem? You would attract a lot of new players, which could then get used to the actual PR style later.
That would expand the community a lot imo!

People who usually look for quick games won't bother with an old game with outdated graphics tbh.
People who play PR for the gameplay don't really care about the graphics.

First idea is interesting.
Second idea is bullshit to be honest. 1.: If you want faster gameplay, play small maps with INF layout
2.: If i want BF4 gameplay, i play BF4. If i want PR gameplay, i play PR.
You can't play the one like it is the other.
4.: A flood of people who only know fast and not very deep gameplay would probably demand stupid changes from the developers.
5.: Small maps would have to be infantry only, because although BF4's Silk Road with 10 tanks, 10 APCs, 4 jets and 4 helicopters on about one square kilometer might be fun, it's highly unrealistic. And this game is called Project Reality after all.

Big fan of the first idea. So many Hideouts.

Insurgents vs insurgents would be cool.

Welcome to the forums CardellB!

(Fairly certain) this has been suggested in the past, albeit probably not recently...anyways, there are at present no maps configured to have two Insurgent factions warring against each other; the closest thing we have to that is the Syrian Rebel faction fighting the MEC.

At present, there is currently no team developing an IS Faction; however if you would like to put a team together and make the assets+maps and put together a legit design plan, your effort would be welcomed.
And as a side note, a Hamas v. IS Map, whilst interesting, would not be terribly realistic--the pair have yet to engage in any *open conflict, over a significant territory.

@ your second comment; I have lost count of how many times I have been dishing out the pain as an Insurgent; and have been on the receiving end of that pain in a humiliating loss as a BLUfor player. I would suggest utilizing the tools at the INS teams disposal in order to be more effective--they're there for a reason.

In response to your third idea, god invented 1km maps and/or Skirmish mode not to be a cheeky *******, but to provide some more claustrophobic game play that would be better suited to your prefferred play style. Nightingale above provided some maps for ya'.

That being said and done, Project Reality has been for a very long time about big and medium sized maps with lots of room to run around and maneuver in; if you don't like that, I would suggest sticking to a more mainstream FPS.

Take care.

You could just make Syrian Rebels vs HAMAS as placeholder factions/permanent.

It's a nice idea.

First rule of PR. Post suggestions in the suggestion forum.

Second rule of PR. You cant post there untill you have 25 posts.

There is a reason for that.
