Suggestions for PR

Hello everybody

First, I would say that I love this mod!

But, after I installed the version 0.6 I was wondering that there is no Al Basrah with a Conquest modus and without USMC's, it's a great pity...

My suggestion is, that you do an Al Basrah in the Insurgency modus with GB's and insurgents and an Al Basrah in the Conquest modus with USMC's and insurgents, like in version 0.5 .

My other suggestion is, that you remove the special kits grenadier and supporter and put the two kits as standart kits. In the version 0.5, everytime I took the grenadier but now, I wouldn't request a new kit everytime.

Best regards

-Cobra-

Do you know it had a very, very good reason to make those two kits limited?

GB fitted the scenery better on Al Basrah. It's not going to change, as far as I know.
(why would you want it to be USMC anyways? just a question

)

Cus he wants the A10 back.

Al Basrah was only USMC for v0.5 because the British weren't completed enough to fight against the Inusrgents. The USMC was really only a placeholder. And the British are currently securing and holding Basrah.

May I ask, how long have you been playing?

And A10 doesnt fit in Basrah anymore, unless you like flying in circles

What? If they can request their sniper kits, why can't they also fetch their nub tubes then?

I can't see the Devs creating or supporting a USMC version of the map for 0.6, the whole purpose was to get the UK in game on Al Basrah.

Once the Apache gets fixed for Basrah people will have something to wait around for 20 minutes and spam/tk/crash with. Patience.

Because of the cars, the planes and the choppers. I don't know, but with the USMC's, there was an other feeling.
Al Basrah is the greatest map I ever played and in Project Reality, there is no map like Al Basrah.

Al Basrah was only USMC for v0.5 because the British weren't completed enough to fight against the Inusrgents. The USMC was really only a placeholder. And the British are currently securing and holding Basrah.

Ok, that's a good answer, but, you saw that Al Basrah on Conquest with USMC was one of the most played maps in Project Reality.
Why didn't you leave the map on Conquest with USMC and added the map on Insurgency with GB's? Then all would be content...
This is great in a computer game, you can do what you want.

And when we talk about maps already, where is Muttrah City? Have you removed this map?

May I ask, how long have you been playing?

Project Reality since version 0.3 and version 0.6 since perhaps a week.

Ok, it's your decision what you do, but I must say I was happier when I played 0.5 as when I played 0.6 .

But keep on the good work.

Best Regards

PS: And don't forget my other suggestions about the kits

Hmm, I sure wish we had a clearly designated sub forum in which we could post our suggestions. That would be nifty, no?

Well it is project reality, the Brits are in charge of the Al Basrah area, that is why the USMC is not present on the map. To create a USMC version of Basrah would be a step backwards.

Muttrah was removed but a new and improved version is in the works.

The kit limiting may be changed in the future? But it was done to limit the spamming of these weapons. In a perfect world we could have the correct weapon loadouts for each squad but in the mean time limiting kits is the work around.

to what contet i have understod the devs want to implement reality to the the game therefore they have changed Al Bashra to a british map, the idea is to depict as well as possible real life army scenarios. the grenadeir kit was transformed in to a requestable kit because of gameplay issues, it was used in a very unrealistic manner by some players(there was alot of discussion about this if you use the search option im sure you will find some of the "issuses" with this kit in .5) so some changes where made to it and the aim of this kit was adjusted as well.

with the grenadier kit "fixed" i find gameplay more enjoable when not getting naded every other minute. as for Al Bashra im glad to see the USMC go and GB step in as this map has to be played in a whole other way! if you want a more detaild exlplanation i suggest u ask one of the devs, pubs or mods as im sure they will more then gladly explain what these game changes entail!

ps. sorry for the bad english and spelling, on a comp without spell check + im dyslexi...

You do know that in 0.5 the conquest mode on Basrah was way too spammy...? Basrah Insurgency is here to stay, I hope they don't bring back AASv2 mode on Basrah.

-end the crashes...for gods sake END THE CRASHES...

-also give some variety in the USMC's guns...almost all of them use the m16.

-Icons that tell you if you're in a "buy zone"

-and something that i don't think could be fixed...the perception of the map is really deceiving, i often think that my teammates are much farther up the map than they are. so i think the person right in front of me is an enemy.

- My 0.6 only crashed one time so far
- No. Normal grunts dont use fancy weapons, M16 is the standard issued rifle.
- No, this is not CS. A little bit of thinking isnt too much.
- Never had this problem.

I'm sorry, but post like this makes the PR gods cry...

Also there is a reason that the M16 is the Standard Issue Service Rifle for the USMC and Army.

Maybe he doesnt want to be USMC, but to shoot Americans??

Please, someone grab my Tylenol, I suddenly have a spliting headache (eddie you hit the nail on the head PR is having it's life blood sucked out of it currently). Oldirti give PR some time, you will learn all the little rules etc. And there are different sized maps so perhaps this is leading to the confusion?

Oldirti · Post by **Oldirti** » 2007-08-07 15:40

-End the crashes (for vista). If you're not crashing you are quite the lucky ones. Even my friends that don't have vista also crash pretty consistently.

-well i just noticed that every other rifle class in the game (i'm pretty sure) has a scope. I was just voicing my opinion. Also, I hasn't tried the US grenadier but im pretty sure it doesn't have a scope either. (it's only a suggestion after all)

-Im talking about if you're in range of getting a limited kit. (many noobs don't actually know where they can get their limited kits, unless they read the manual, which i did)

-it's not really a problem, more or less just something you have to get used to.

P.S im flame resistant sorry

P.P.S that's why i put buy zone in quotations...

M16A4 with ACOG scope is beeing done for 0.7.
But the M16A2 from Rifleman and Officer already has 4x zoom on the ironsights as placeholder.
