This map looks amazing. Lots of vegetation, just like La Drang and like it should be!

Looking at the map the only way to build FOBs will be via heli unless boats will be dropping crates.

The question to me is the other way around? Will the M67's flame thrower be effective against the PT-76. Hopefully the terrain will allow the M67 to get into flame thrower range or else that thing is screwed.
Also that PBR looks like its gotten a face lift. Can't wait to to gun runs in those things always fun to have 6 mgs going at once. (the 5 on the boat and 1 more from your squad)

Good luck with that The map is tiny.
Not sure if nostalgia clouding my judgement but I loved this map,bombing down the river in dingy's and stuff.
Wasn't it dropped due to the BF2 engine not doing NV right or something?Whats changed?

iirc the map's quality was only really good enough when in night mode, when night mode stopped working properly for various reasons, then the map wasn't deemed suitable anymore. However this version is truely excellent and we're all glad to see it reborn

The map was changed to a day map before then
It was dropped a few releases ago with a few other maps like OGT etc mainly because of its size since we where moving more towards larger maps but we feel now that 1km maps still have a place in PR and a lot of players miss it. + with the new overhaul it should be really good now!
