After playing Operation Snowstorm how did you feel about the whole Snow concept which had never really been used in PR? What were your thaughts, what did you like, dislike? Any suggestions you think which would be imporant for an effective snow map?
I personaly loved the event. it was nice having a change like this. while playing it seemed like i was already used to playing in the snow. you adapt quickly to your new suroundings and get used to spotting enemies and hiding

the white suits i think Realy made a difference oposed to the regular green camo on differnt trees under growth etc. i feel the brittish pure white suits made them harder to see than the chineese yet still so standards as to the normal camo's hiding effect.
Please give some imput ^_^ and if you would like show us some screen shots of your Snowday
I understand how hard it was to enter the event when it first started at 1800 PRT but eventually the number of people got to a reasonable amount to join for instance i joined the last two rounds and ended at 11 ish Eastern time yesterday... im not sure if we are still playing today that would be nice up untill christmas ^_^

i didnt get to play
i joined at the very start of the event when everyone was joining then got kicked for not being on mumble i think even though i was on it and talking
then i couldn't join again cause it was to full for ages lol but had a run around on a local and it is such a cool map, the snow is so cool

while the snow had no actual effect on gameplay IMO, it was obvious that the map itself had only been worked on for a week. Without choppers, everything sort of ground to a halt. At least that was my experience. The little bit that I was in combat was good, and the snow uniforms helped blend in well. Overall it was a nice idea, and im glad you guys did it.
Merry Christmas to you all

Yeah, instead of the sunny desert or dark forest warfare we usually have. Some snow maps would be nice
Merry Christmas

I liked it.
Was really great for all purpose map.
Add artillery/jdam etc. to clear out those difficult places to get the game going.
Btw enhanced sound effects ruled!

I liked it. The fact that it was only nature and no statics makes it appealing I think. It is also realistic, most places in the swedish mountians are equally deserted. It is amazing that it was done in only four days, it should serve as an inspiration to other mappers who fiddle to much with details. The assets where also balanced. The Inf+APC combo is usually funny on big open maps, and it was fun here as well. The APC´s did not dominate and it was easy to take out lone APC´s with HAT. If there were tanks on the map they would have dominated to much.
Btw, I also liked the event. Most people where on mumble, and was trying hard to use teamwork to win. More events to the people! Why not play this "winter map" every other sunday until the spring comes? Could be fun to have more regular events.

Ha played with guy called NyteMyre. A great Warrior driver... The map was very fun, in vehicles, but not as infantry, with vehicles you could easily hide behind greentrees but not as infantry. Anyways, was really entertaining map.

There was a snow map in 0.3, but wasn't a proper one with snow camouflages or anything.
