it just came out today. has anyone played it? what do you think? i just got done playing a few rounds, its pretty cool, has some nice models of older equipment like the sheridan {its set in the first gulf war} and very nice sound effects. i wish pr had some of the sound effects from this mod. they incorporated some elements that pr has like tank zooms as well. overall it feels sorta like PR-lite, very lite lol its a little too vanilla-ish for my taste but its not bad. definitly worth a shot but i wont be giving up pr anytime soon.

Well im downloading it now, i know they put alot of efort into it, its just im afraid im just not going to like because of the simple fact its not going to be as realistic as PR. But nevertheless i will give it a shot, they did put alot of work into it and i did like the original version of it, but of course that was before i played PR.

Sorry for double post, but how realistic is this mod, is it one shot one kill deal, or is like a full mag to kill someone, decribe the realism of it please.

k, I played about 2 maps yesterday for the first time, and yes my also CTDed 2 times. It is vanilla-ish with its tiny maps and tons of vehicles. On the HUD it shows artillery fire and missile fire which is kinda gay. The vehicle models are good, but some of the buildings look really bad. You do have a health bar and i think an ammo counter. Its better than vanilla, but definetly no where near PR.

Pros:
-2-3 shots with an AK47 to kill someone usualy for example.
-Bullet and Tank shell ballistics are very well done, they arch over distances, and different between different types of ammunition
-Some tanks come with a third option of AT rockets.
-Good damage system; Vehicles take damage differently depending on where they are hit.
-Nice meaty sound effects
-Lots of vehicles to choose from.... you actually get kind of overwhelmed with all the new things to try out
-Very nice maps
-very good models
-overall very fun
-No hit indicators
-Aircraft are done well
-Have to choose your ammunition choices wisely depending on targets.

Cons:
-Still arcadish in nature
-Ammo and health counters
-No bleeding
-No AAS mode (yet) there will be next release they say
-Needs some better optimization for lower end pc's.
-Cross hairs
-No kit limiting
-Quick repawn times

Its deffinatly worth the download guys, we still have PR right when you want a little more realism but just the sheer amount of content and the quality of it in this mode is worth playing.

It is best for people who like armoured and air combat. I spend alot of time having slug fests with other tanks and APCs.

you know, you "can" eliminate your crosshairs and minimap, but then you don't get to see flag names, and you get a big hunk of ticket counter sitting in the middle of ur screen
