We are not going to fight the mec we will fight the talibans! The storyline is probably just somthing he made out of his mind right Wicca?

If were not going to fight the MEC i might aswell just stop mapping this... I mean, im pretty sick of playing Insurgency, and when my favorite faction, gets to be in this mod! Norway gets to be in this mod, i dont want players to think, OMG! Its insurgency, and then think of Norway and Insurgency as booring. Cause a 4km map really isnt going to work as insurgency. And ive said this before, and ill say it again. It will be AAS!

If you dont want that let me know ;)

And at the name, i was wondering what white against black would be in Afghani? Or perhaps even in Arabian.

And also, i want it to be like, the battle of .... Not just the name of a place. Cause its a battle

four letter word, amen.

Will this map incourage realistic long range fighting or is just another map where people fight vanilla style in in villages?
Well persian for black is sia and White is Sefeed. Probably the same as daari/pashto, Should be :P

Point, Wicca.

As a last result we could always make an INS version of the map later on, change the lightning etc.

And regarding the name, what about "Operation Sefeed"?

Doesn't have to be insurgency we could have it to be something else? I doubt that project reality has only 2 game modes in theire mind when we have released our faction :)

Im just going to update one post anyway... This thread is use for discussing my map, and the OP is supposed to "represent" my map.

Rangu, i dont think the devs will be very happy for a new "operation" map.

Sia sefeed... Sounds like a Japanese fishing company....

Anywho, i just added a completly new village, near the "Bluefor" main, and i will add some shrubberies, to the entire map.

Pics will come soon ;)

@Zeno : Gimme link to Rhinos Field system!

@P2KK : I have several music choices and video ideas in mind, but thats faaaar into the future.

Its going to be long range warfare, hopefully with "manouver and disguise" tactics, using APCs, Infantry and Air assets. Villages are just additonal cover, and most of it is destructible. As of right now i have 324 destructible objects, i aim to get 350 if im allowed. Enlighten me on CqC please.

@ Rangu : Thanks, and i have to say, im pretty with how it looks in its raw state, obviously im a long way from completion, but i feel that i can sit back and feel comfortable with this result, and it gives me more inspiration to continue.

I regret to say though, that i will be having a 2 week brake, if not less, from mapping. I am currently moving to a new appartment, closer to Tønsberg, and will be using that time to transport my materialistic things from one place to another, pluss buying various "Hvitevarer". For me this is good news, since where i was living, was shite, and this new place is awesome. Although it does set my map back 2 weeks, im sure i can race to keep up the pace later.



I would like to say that, i need pics of trees, and vegitation aswell as "ditches" in afghanistan. Its supposed to look dirty. Give me pics of villages etc. Thanks to the videos i have been given about the Russian outpost. Hope to get more material soon ;)

I thought Cqc stood for close quarter combat, but I guess thats not the real word for it :P
I am putting up pics on afghanistan asap!
From what i've heard from swedish ISAF forces is that the northern part has lots of mountains and the terrain is alot more harsh then helmand.

Well mainly it will be Long range heavy weapons, but maybe in the villages we will se some closequartercombat. Sorry that i didnt understand you.

Good photos!

So, i hope the squadleaders will put up defensive positions, and when in contact, its pretty easy to see where the fire is coming from, unless your under fire. (Tracers)

I also hope that the villages will be used as a point of cover, and people will fight over these strongpoints, aswell as mountaintops, etc.

But, gameplay hasnt been tested, and its a large map. So, i can only imagine.
