Project Reality Forums

This is just a little realism suggestion, has some gameplay effect, but not much.
I think the map should be, well... a map. like the one you would be looking at if you were in a battle, most soldiers would be looking at a roadmap, not a satellite image, the commanders maybe, but the soldier would be looking at a regular old map. this also makes the insurgents more realistic,(unless the insurgents have google earth ) this might take a good photoshop artist a few hours. but now onto the gameplay effect, maybe some maps' map would be outdated, and not have some buildings/bridges where they actually are. but i would really suggest limiting this so the first-timers actually know where they are. I think this was in quite a few 1942 mods (EOD is one).

I like that idea.

This is somewhere around the 5th time this has been suggested.

I didn't see it in the already suggested suggestions thread, the mods can close this thread if they see fit, until then, discuss.

its not to hard to do... though its hard to make it look good

I think, an O/S map of the area is a good idea, showing contours etc. instead of grid E3. use 6-8 fig grid references.

didnt know they had O/S in the ME?

More detailed grid is also welcome...at least have it like this:


--E--1--2--3--4--5--F--


So we can tell a more accurate position inside a grid...
In Al Basrah, E6 grid has a lot of places, where insurgent spawn/jihad cars could be...if youre too lazy to remember, thats the Facility area...

The "Already Suggested Suggestions" is not your final destination.

It's a quick reference guide/search.

If you can't find it, use the proper search, or you could contact me.

I know I'm no, as they call here "MOD", but I think it's something the community can benefit from.
