I joined PR a little bit after 1.0 was released, so i never played WW2 (except for last years alpha) and i've been hearing a lot about this so-called bagpipe kit. i did some research and coudn't find anything except other players asking about it.
so my questions
1. is it a myth? ( in that is, i've heard about the background story)
2. is it in the upcomming alpha?
3. will the upcomming alpha have the same map as last year or more?

1. Nope not a myth
2. Its in the files, placed on maps who knows
3. Some new and some old, wait and see!
I'm just wondering, why are the textures for vehicles and soldiers so different from PR's. It's like they are low-res. Especially the vehicle ones.
I mean it's the same people that have made the modern PR's vehicles right? Or are the WW2 models imported from other developers?

IIRC they have some models from some other mod (can't remember the name thou), since there's not a big active Dev team working on it they are relying on those models and textures as placeholders.

Both player models and vehicles are from other mods and we textures can only be improved to some degree. We have something cooking for the vehicles but hopefully that will be for a future update.

That's about it yeah, we had alot of stuff given to us, cause we dont have enough people to make it all ourselves. But if you find people who want to help improve stuff, give us a shout
Edit: dammit arc

Will there be an airborne system whereas, you assault the main island from a small island with an airport per example by parachuting down from the planes that players will fly?
Mind you, each kit has to have a parachute and this should probably restrict some of the kits from having a really heavy machine gun as an example or a rocket launcher maybe?
