Project Reality Forums

Hello,

as it stands right now i have been encountering one major problem with project reality 1.0, and that is the fact that in all maps where the US faction starts on the uss essex the only way to reach the main battleground is by using helicopters.

As not everybody knows how to use the helicopters or use them well, this has been causing a huge imbalance when playing these maps. Most of the US team is left stranded on the uss essex waiting for someone who knows how to properly fly the helicopters, and a bunch of unexperienced players crash the remaining helicopters into the water.

Whilst it might not be the most elegant thing, the best solution would be to add several boats to have at least one alternative to the helicopters when there are no experienced pilots around. What do you think?

I dont think its a generell problem when not all the helicopters getting wasted. A few boates were better but the problems with boats is that they are a one way drive and all quickly end abadonend at the shore.

There is no way to escape the fact that during an amphibious assault...the helicopters are going to be important.

There is always a period where the new players need to learn that the helicopters are not like in vbf2, particularly with the V22. Patience is required

During an amphibious assault, wouldn't their usually be amphibious vehicles to go with it? - I'd think that would mean at least 1-2 boats. (IMO)

not that I disagree with you Rudd (I understand why there are no boats), but just wondering.

Which maps don't have boats? Because they pretty much all do iirc?

Yeah that what I was thinking. All maps I have seen have at least 2 boats and even more boats in the infantry layer.
