Project Reality Forums

I voted no, it makes it easier for the map maker.

i would much prefer a map so we can discuss stuff on mumble with locations and what not while people load

Put them in 5 paragraph OPORD format for epic realism

James Earl Jones or GTFO...

"THIS... is CNN..."

Problem with doing it as an orders group is that it has to be common to both sides. Kind of hard if you're stating opposing missions, right?

Otherwise, I'd wholeheartedly approve of it.

first interesting alternative so far imo, background images in a news service style giving an overview of the situation, "Russian peacekeeps moved in to Beirut today..."

but it would be alot of work considering that its not a gameplay change

It may worth if we add some bot journalists around the map

anyone remember the "USMC have seized control of a farm" briefing? Used to make me laugh every time.

Operation Phoenix?

How can i forget

Yes that would be awsome

I'd rather have an extra 2 minutes to get organized

I would like at least some basic briefings. I think vanilla BF2 had them.

Project Reality 0.5 and 0.6 had them too

What does this have to do with anything? You won't suddenly lose time because a little briefing gets added. It's going to be during the load screens, so you don't have to read them.

250 on yes

I vote yes, but if you play MAG on PS3, the briefings get a little old after a while, but they occur every 20 minutes or so.

I think briefings would be great. It would add atmosphere. Not too detailed, but a basic storyline could enhance the experience.

A short briefing with some ambiguous tips about the map would be nice. One can only gather so much about the operation from red and blue arrows, and it makes me feel like I've been dropped in without a hint of an idea of what to do, other than run blindly towards the map markers and shoot at the occasional bogey.

Aside from that, a bit of backstory of what when and why would also add to the game in my opinion.

3mins isnt enough for you?

Well since pretty much every server says you can't make a squad til 1:30? Yea you barely have time to organize unless you're with your mates and can talk about it the whole time you're even loading.

Briefings would make the PR storyline more accessible to us. We'd be able to understand. Hell you could even have people dedicated to writing out a downloadable PDF with info on battles being fought for like... PRaganda.
