Feel free to mention things that you think must be fixed in this version. We will try to throw in what we can.

Sounds good you fixed a lot of things that were unrealistic. I canâ$™t wait to hear what else you have changed.

But wondering if you changed the medics healing and wether or not people can be killed when shot in the head interested of injured :

Great job cant wait to play it
when will it be released?

why remove the smg from AT class? Did you think they were over powered?

Personally I really liked how the mp5 was done in this mod and it would be a shame to remove it. It wasn't overpowered in my opinion because, yes it killed quickly like all the guns in the game, but it really was weak at a distance when going against more accurate weapons.

I can think of a bunch of alternatives to removing the SMG for this class, like lowering their sprinting abilites to where it regains itself a lot slower (right now, heavy soldiers and light soldiers both have equal sprinting abilities).

[Paladin-X]

I loves the MP5 too, but I was advised that the AT class does not carry a rifle/smg. Eddie can probably explain it better, but pretty much the AT guy is supposed to have 1-2 rockets and a sidearm. He should be accompanied by another soldier that has a couple extra rounds and a rifle.

Maybe I can throw it in as the unlock for spec ops or something? I know it's not necessarily realistic, but what about giving it to the medic?

EDIT: I think it may help increase the need for teamwork. You won't have 1 man army AT guys running around. The other soldiers will depend on AT class against armor and the AT guy will depend on others for infantry support. Pairing up AT+Support would be good.

i think sniper should get the MP5, most snipers do carry some sort of Carbine/SMG as well as there rifle even STA platoon guys

i cant agree with that statement more!@!.. I enjoy sniping and really love the M95 , however beckwith makes a strong point in real time ops most snipers do carry some sort of rifle/smg on top of there sniping weapon to help deal with aggressors while in route to sniping spots. this game is all about realism so this should be included a additonal rifle/smg/shotgun that we can sling arms and use when nessacary.

however i would really like to see other world rifle models besides the M95 dont get me wrong this is a nice weapon however there is other models just as good like the PSG-1 things like that..

also something that should be added into the sniping kit and assault kit is colored smoke gernades to mark your spot for artilllery and bombing shoots. and also to mark a LZ for incomin troop transports. this is something i really think should be put into play it makes alot of sense and is used by all branches of the military for these reasons

[Beckwith]

as far as adding other rifles you gotta waite till PR full, mini mods dont add much in the way of new content like weapons or vehicles a mini mod is just a tweak in the coding for the most part

[StormRavn]

well heck i can wait for the full monty of the mod i am like a eager kid on xmas waitin to bring the fun!!!

[toffa_h]

I'm glad that this version will soon be out, but there aren't that many changes, unfortunately. When will the full version of PR be out?

[eddie]

when its ready.
I think this is just what is needed for v.02, it addresses all the issues raised, and the anti-tank having his MP5 taken away to promote teamwork, a thought of excellency.
But i too cannot wait for the full Project Reality, oooo, teh brits.

[StormRavn]

without tryin to rain on the parade i really think thats terrible the removal of the weapon from the AT class and just givin them a pistol and some rockets.
I am a huge player of anti tank in the game and yes i understand the main weapon for the at class is terrible but it gives ya some protection when need be.

I am a total fan of this mod however i have a huge frown. changed a class that is so desperatly needed such as the AT what a couple rockets now and a damm pistol come on . i dont think a lot of people will be playin this class any more .

this is how it will play out if you need a AT rocket to stop a armor just wait for some noob to select that class kill them steal there kit use the rocket then go back to true weapons this class will no longer be player due to the removal of the weapon.

yes dont hate on the AT class i can dig makin the loadout 3 instead of 6 thats groovy but come on gimmie a shotty at least not just a pistol!!!

[BrokenArrow]

i think that just increasing the mag count on the pistol would be fine. giving the AT only an AT weapon and a pistol completely takes away the option of having lone wolf AT soldiers. it forces more teamwork. protect your AT guy, or you get nailed by armor.

Precisely my thoughts on this.

well i can handle more mags gimmie 10 mags a good sidearm like desert eagle 50 cal not the crappy 9 and i will play AT all day long please make this happen!!!

[Paladin-X]

I forgot to mention it, but I did increase the number of pistol mags for AT class from 2 to 4, but I can increase even higher if necessary.
