To be honest our main source of inspiration is to imagine PR in a WW2 setting. We're not being particularly influenced by other games, although they are awesome in their own way.Rezza wrote:Are you taking inspirations from games like Combat Mission: Battle For Normandy or Call Of Duty World At War in regards to visuals , atmosphere and game design?
I think it'll very hard to happen. The only way I would ever give green light to such a colossal project would have to come from a dedicated team or suddenly have player models, vehicles and unique statics for the japanese faction.Banzai Kitty wrote:I know this was already answered in the negative more or less, but I think some PTO themed maps would be amazing, seeing how awesome the vietnam maps are. This would be so much better than Rising Storm.
So if this is a big success, might it ever come to pass?!
It was a planning flaw to think that back then it would be possible to make a mini Pacific theater even without the support of other mods which own Imperial Japan assets. I was mapping Iwo Jima and even went as far as thinking of doing Okinawa next (or Manchuria if the russian faction was in progress) but later on it proved to be an impossibility due to reasons stated before.
IF we ever think of doing other theaters, it would most likely be the russians since we have plenty of unique weapons, vehicles and even player models. However the western front is giving us a lot of work as it is just for a basic portrayal. There is more in depth that we want to do after the initial release but will also come down to more mappers volunteering and helping us out.
they look fantastic!
