Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
I had to say. When I joined I was really shocked. It just... blew me away. It was some weird movie moment.
I joined Brits, I spawned in and as a was walking out of main base with a handful of other guys the chinook came in for a lovely landing, pivoting just before touching down, and at the same moment a Harrier did a fly by.
Epic. Best map ever.

Excellent work so far I must say. Most maps in .85 are now boring for most and I always welcome new maps!

The A-10 seems to take a little bit of collision damage soon after it spawns, but other than that, it looks great!

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
The first thing that tipped me off though was the file size. Though, that might be because I'm used to dling single maps of various sizes because of the com matches and some other bf2 tests 
Though, I'm sure most people unaccustomed to that wouldn't have noted it
EDIT: GOOD GOD IS TIRAK A MOD? Now THAT's got to be an April Fools joke, no? NOOOOOOOO!

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
I don't think so. Since I've been playing pr, they've never actually had open beta maps, so I wouldn't expect it to be. And if you remember the 0.85 changelog turmoil, they like to keep their secrets until the release

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
To tell you the truth I think that thats the reason people werent getting angry. It didnt sunk in yet that they WONT be playing Sangin until its release with the next update. I think we (I did as well) where just thinking: Oh ahah! What would you expect, early acces on april fools hmmmhmmmmmm! Lets just wait till friday evening.McLuv wrote:I don't think so.

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
Yea, but you didn't get the OMG WTF responses on the first changelog, either. Maybe by the 3rd it wasn't funny any more, but otherwise people played along for a while. And mind you, it hasn't even been a day old yetcyberzomby wrote:To tell you the truth I think that thats the reason people werent getting angry.

Not another insurgency map! This makes me angry. BTW, the pictures look great. Keep up the good work DEVs.
Note*- I don't like insurgency but I do support the creations that the devs make.

Re: Sangin Valley Open-Beta!
I'm not sure why its taking so long to get done with the chinook... it doesn't seem that complicated. 
Map has been thoroughly tested.
