Hi folks!
I'd love to see a map centered around the British vs the IRA, Proper urban battles! Could be interesting, I'm new to the community..Has anyone bought this up before? or even tried it?

Re: IRA
Now just start modelling and mapping maps! You kinda can't just "hey guys I got new faction idea!" if you aren't willing to do anything for the now faction, because R-DEVs have not got time for community-factions (sure they can consult you etc)

Re: IRA
I remember this idea not being welcomed so much before, but if there is a group of capable people interested I'd throw in what I can.
A reasonable amount of the work needed for a new faction would not be necessary for the IRA; pretty much every weapon they used a lot is already in the game. Also for the characters we could just whitey up some of the Iraqi insurgents and make them look a bit more like this:

Huehuehue.
The main challenge I see is creating a reasonable map for them. The Northern Irish countryside could make for a reasonable map given the 1980s Brits and an IRA faction, but it would feel basically like Falklands with more ditches. Could be reasonable, but IMO it would feel like WW2/0.98 Falklands so I'm not sure how worthwhile that'd be unless they feature on a city map or two aswell.
On that note, a city map is not realistic without huge work since none of the buildings in the game really match the architecture of Belfast, Derry, etc.
But yeah, what a year to do it.

Re: IRA
Germans not getting a joke? Preposterous!
VTRaptor: but i only stopped for less than 10 secs and that fucking awesome dude put 2 of them
]CIA[ SwampFox: well my definition of glitching is using an enemy kit to kill the enemy
Just_Dave: i have a list about PR players, and they r categorized by their skill
Para: You sir are an arse and not what the game or our community needs.
AlonTavor: Is that a German trying to make me concentrate?
Heavy Death: join PRTA instead - Teamwork is a must there.
