0.973 MAP PACK
The Project Reality:BF2 team is proud to announce the upcoming release of FOUR NEW MAPS as part of a 0.973 Map Pack that will be released in December.

As you can see, this is NOT your standard winter map pack! Many of these maps have been in development for over a year and have all of the features and details that you've come to expect from PR:BF2 maps. Another difference is that this map pack is not seasonal and they will all be integrated into the next full release of PR:BF2 or PR:Vietnam.

Beta Test / Stress Test


So why are we telling you this now if the map pack won't be released until December? Well, based on feedback from the community and development team, we will be conducting a beta test / stress test November 25-27. The Tactical Gamer (TG) and New Era Warfare (NEW) servers have graciously volunteered to host the beta test and will be running all seven maps during those three days.

To sign up and get more information, please visit their respective forums:
NEW: Newcommunity.eu • View topic - 0.973 Map Pack Betatest
TG: ANNOUNCEMENT Masive Epic New Maps Event at TG

They will provide details, server rules, passwords, etc. If you're not able to help with the beta test, have no fear. The fully-tested map pack will be released in December, so keep your eyes on the Project Reality forums in a few weeks.

Also, since I'm sure we'll get questions... This is not a patch to 0.973. Since downloading the map pack is completely optional, we are unable to change files to existing maps. Those changes will be seen when PR publishes its next full release.

Enjoy... and please help test. :)

Indeed, what factions will be on the new maps?

Nice to see a new 2km map in there. Here's hoping the 4k ones are more Burning Sands and less Iron Eagle; we Inf whores like to have a good time too ;)

There won't be SP/Coop support for the maps in this map pack. This is because there won't be enough time between when the maps are finalized, and when the maps get released, for SP/Coop support to be added. For 1.0 however when they're integrated, there might be some support :) .
