More vehicle maps

EyesOnly · Post by **EyesOnly** » 2007-07-20 08:12

I've played a fair amount of maps in the last 2 days (new to PR)
On the website and the forums i see the great lists of vehicles and air units but in all the hours i've played so far I havent seen a single tank, plane or heli.

With such an amazing collection of vehicles, why aren't they being used on maps?

play kashan on .......youll get all the planes tanks and choppers youll ever need......

Heh i know, but that's exactly my point.
Those very few maps that use them, it's a real shame imo.

But i don`t get it...
Can you please make a balanced, structured, etc. map in the size of Kashan and offer it for free to the community?
Otherwise stop the moaning and thank the PR-team for their great work!

What's your problem?

Who's whining? Why do you feel the need to get all defensive on me?

I thought this was a forum for suggestions, well this IS my suggestion.
More maps that involve air units and armor.
Oh and....everyone hates fanboys

Kufrah is T90 heaven, also Zatar....
Most people like infantry maps....

Everyone hates vehicle whores too.

PR is based on realism, not "full-on vehicle rampages", so the maps contain as many vehicles as the mappers want it.

Why do you think vanilla made that "Infantry Only" mode?

If you don't like the maps feel free to make your own, infact you probably won't even bother.

Good day to you.

Strange because if PR players want reality, vehicles and air support are a big part of it

Like me

Imo , 1 attack choper , 1-2 MBT's , 2-3 APC\IFV is enough for any PR map . Otherwise we have Kashan which I played about 5-6 times but already hate . Worst grunt's dream is Kashan Desert , full of camping whores in MBT's ...
Zatar Wetlands , Kashan Desert and Kufrah Oilfields have too much vehicles .
I'm all for vehicles , but not for 4-8 MBT's , 2 jets or choper , 2-4 APC's and so on ... thats too much ! PR should have vehicles , they have to be strong but there must not be vanilla ... where you have 2-3 vehicles on every flag and about 10-15 on uncap .
Old maps were perfect ( some of new are also fine , but huge armour battles aren't for PR as they are completely unrealistic - tank soloers are 90% of tankers and even if you manage to get full crew (2) you dont have freakin gun stabilizer so a stupid soloer who is simply camping with his 'mobile gun with 10x zoom and coaxial MG' have better chances then a moving tank .Come on , this isn't WWII , tanks nowadays shoot and move at the same time )

Reality ? You consider reality 25\32 players in vehicles ? This isn't reality ...

I agree, it shouldnt be a map packed with vehicles, but at least one heli and a few apc's would add a lot of gameplay aspects.

It's a suggestion forum, **** ***
I'd say the same about infantry whoring

And yes, i am interested in mapping for the BF engines as i am experienced in multiple fps engines (unreal engines).

Tank soloing ruins PR

I'm not to familiar with that three letter swearword, please enlighten me.

I ain't preventing you from mapping, am I?

I don't know why you are saying this the next release will have more armour maps and it's like your saying .6 is the last release of PR , the dev's cant just chuck a load of unfinished maps into 1 release it takes time to make maps.

I'm a new player and I'm making suggestions based on my view on .6

I don't know the history of this mod. So I don't know what is planned either

No but you are trying to prevent me from giving feedback and suggestions from a new player's point of view.

Same as me, but next time call ''hey! I need a ride'' and I'll stop instead of jumping infront of my tank haha!

And yes I overreacted that game since my team (full of bf2 noobs) pissed me off.

if your missing out on maps with veichles, go for kashan, greasy mullet or al kufran oil fields in it! Not all maps are suited for armor,jet and heli combat!

EyesOnly · Post by **EyesOnly** » 2007-07-20 12:51

I'm not saying stick armor on every map. Design the maps for a purpose
