Holy looks really good can't wait to try it ;)

One thing i really would like to try on some city map though would be the C&C mode with Us/brit vs. MEC/what you feel like

hmm ok again a ins city map :neutral:
We have now Albasrah, Ramiel, Fallujah (which i think its also city based) and this one. So PR has lots of urban maps but the most of them are ins :-? And most of the people like me like playing ins mode but not all the time.

Still waiting for a big chinese city map. Theres a big black hole at the moment.

But now to the map :mrgreen:
The map itself looks awesome but 2- Apaches and 2 Abrams Tanks :shock: The tanks arent a problem but the apaches are. Even if you have (3) AA guns in key locations as you said, the AA guns are nearly useless agains a good chopper team. As we seen in Basrah 0.5. There were also two aa guns but if you used them you get killed so fast, it was just .....

I also don´t like the car cemetery in the backyard. It don´t looks like a real junkyard so what is this? creativity of the mapper :confused:

Also the construction side looks a little bit "dead". A structural work have normal a cran but there isnt one and its way to clean, like nobody ever worked there. Just have a look to th econstruction in sunset city it looks more alive. Also placing a mound at the corner would be nice.

On one of the last pictures you can see a village next to a factory. Even there aren´t any streets there should be paths. Without them this looks like a sum of statics placed in the middle of nowhere.

looks absolutely fantastic, ins will have a hard time defending those caches, unless you'll balance it somehow, like giving ins BFG pickup kit :D

It doesn't and won't ;) (unless your pc is from the 90's)

Can't ABSOLUTELY garantee it to be completely lag free on everyone's pc, i.e. if you've got 1GB RAM you could be struggling in the same way some people used to struggle with 1GB on basrah, but I very much doubt many people will have performance issues with this one. You get a good idea for how well a map's gonna run on a variety of pcs when you've been mapping for a couple of years.

As long as it doesn't lag when in your looking at the tv screen for the apaches gun/hellfire - everything should just be fine :) .

Speaking about balancing, would the ins get any type of armoured vehicle or stationary AT weapon for this map?
I understand this may be unrealistic but mybe have some old T-62s, a zis-3 or (as suggested in another thread) a SPG-9

Also, to help balance the map out a bit, the insurgents have (3)AA guns in key locations and also they will have (2)Mosin Nagants (2)Draganov's and quite a few high vantage points to plan and carry out IED and RPG ambushes. I have tried to keep a realistic balance, but remember as well, that the US has always had the overwhelming firepower but the insurgents have the element of surprise and ambush. Believe me when I say that this map has tons of great ambush spots
yep
