Hi, Im new to PR, and I'd like to know what the creators of this mod mean by "destructible environments" More specifically, I'd like to know just how destructible these levels are

like, say I drop a bomb on a building. Will that building take any damage?

Welcome to the forums! To answer you question, say you are light AT and the building you are aiming at is "destructible" if you fire upon that building with the light AT it will blow apart the wall and usually kill anyone inside of it. Also, some stone walls and bunkers are destructible. They can be destroyed by APC's, Heavy AT, Light AT, Tanks, RPG's, ect.

those vids are mostly the first gen destructible buildings. new ones are even cooler and look a bit more realistic. plus the new ones are designed such that you can drive a tank through the wreck.

and we've tweaked all of them so that Tanks can plow through buildings and walls and such. It's quite satisfying to level a village without firing your weapons

Yeah, and the bug, which sets your APC fyling, when you hit a wall, is even better

But is realistic... never heard of slingshot apcs?

I'd want that bug on AT mines, so whenever I drive over one, I get blown UP

EDIT: lol sorry if this just got answered, took ages to post reply so went and played PR for a bit

so i take it that only specific buildings are built to be destructible?

and will that mean completely destructible or like you'll only blow a hole through the wall of a building?

just wondering as ages ago I had a game on PS2 called Red Faction and they boasted destructible environments, which basically amounted to a handful of walls that had visible cracks on them (bit like Zelda I suppose

) and would basically just make a hole where crack was.

do you guys have any vids of artillery on villages?

bah ... load up Helmand Province (on V.5) or Albasrah/Karshan (in the latest beta) and place C4 to see what happens. You'll see soon eough
