When i try to launch PR via shortcut or .exe itself, the game doesn't start, but instead, a
DELETE THE OLD SHORTCUTS! It has been said somewhere, you DELETE them cuz there will be NEW!

This "modfolder /PR blabla" is not needed anymore.

If you want (like me) to add "+fullscreen 0" and a custom resolution, you can apply that, but you dont need the folder data. Just delete it.
My PR 086 shortcut looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" start /AFFINITY 2 +menu 1 +restart +szx 1440 +szy 810 +widescreen 1 +fullscreen 0 +playerName Megagoooof +playerPassword bigcookiePR086

I already thought about that before the patch. I knew it would be overkill, I mean, deployed mode->deviation is minimal, so with a scope I will get UEBER power!

With the MG dude sitting in the right place it does not take much more to have a whole enemy SQD being busy to get him, but here we can use smoke and grenadier-smoke on the MG dude himself, this gives you a few seconds to move closer to him to knock him out... I guess, have to try it though, dunno how it will work...



However, I LOVE the new chinese sounds, have to check the british ones.
I like the LMG in undeployed mode, it gives me CQB domination.
I really LOVE the red-dots. :) Finally I agree to use those kits, I hated them cuz of the old ugly and not useful red-dots, since they blocked half the view.
SL should get CQB if he wants, now he can. :)

The new animations give a fresh feeling, sprinting never felt so frisking, it is good! The sniper animations look cooler too.


I really like the patch, but we need to see how we will deal with the scoped LMGs.
A dude got the LMG 2 mins ago and had 6 kills more in the next 2 mins... :-?

In terms of the AR kits, wouldn't they have a similiar effect in a realistic combat scenario? I mean a scoped AR in the right place would be a significant factor.

QBZ gun sounds are awesome. The hydra sounds are really awesome. There's a **** load of machine guns. Red and Green tracers all over the place. The only critical thing I seen so far is the map Jabal al Burj. The hydra huey is a pain in the *** for the MEC side. With the crappy AA system in PR right now, that thing is impossible to take down and it will repeatedly rape any area.

So far I can say it is like every release. Take away some advantages from PLA and MEC and give more power to US and GB, well nothing surprising. :(

The only thing I don't like with this release is the AR's, I thought they were perfect in the last version. But other then that its all good.

You need to ensure you are using the PR Shortcut inside the actual PR Folder or point to that one. Check the properties line and ensure that it's pointing to pr2.exe.

It's simple.

The Medic changes are for the good of the gameplay.
The ARs have been powered up for GB and USA and now dominate every map.
Very boring to play with it or against it.


Oh and the map changes made to Qwai River turned the best PR map ever, due to its asymetrical balance, into a map that will soon not be running on any server anymore. It will always end up with TOW Humvees dominating any and all vehicles of the PLA and ending in a capout by USA.

Impression? 2 AR for everysingle team and the game it's over... 4x zoom on AR it's ridicolus for me! You can shoot directly in main base from 800 mt. and 500 mt it's precisious AR it's over powered for me.

Loving the new medic system.

Didn't get a chance to listen to all the new sounds, but the Chinese rifles sound awesome now.

Great job [R-DEV]s (and whoever else helped :p )
