The Ranger add on is up as far as I can see- seems there's been downloads already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Ranger add on is up as far as I can see- seems there's been downloads already. Interesting. I wonder why I can't see it. They don't work without the weapons though.

Gordo_Viper 0 Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 For B/B a nice view of the Snow Map from Terrain Pack 2- watching it will give you an idea of the scope of the maps involved.... a lot lot bigger than GR Maps. Snow Map Video Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Snow Map Video That's an understatement. Some of the military compounds in VBS1 are larger than an entire map in GR. It's just not possible to explain to someone who huge VBS1 maps are - they have to see for themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Speaking of shooting long distances, I got my SPR fine-tuned now. I've got a modified reticule made for it, and it's now possible to hit guys that are 1,500 meters away. Talk about reaching out and touching someone... Oops. Darn typos. One letter can completely change the meaning of a paragraph...

Tommy35 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Is this ever going to be released in the states? Para, man how did you get your mits on a copy? Lucky dog. This looks IMO to be THE game for me. Never thought I'd say this, but GR is getting stale fast. Please help a fellow trigger puller out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Parabellum 12 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Just had some good games with Gordo and Snow. Finally finished the convoy ambush, with 29 kills and a BMP toast. I love my M24. Gordo is the man with shoulder-fired munitions. Watching him take down Mi-17's with an RPG is just fascinating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gordo_Viper 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) @ Para, Nah just lucky- twice. Some Screenies from the Session. Action shots Note BMP in my Elcan sight- also note Javelin missile upper right of scope fired by Snowfella Snows Javelin Hits Home Another Angle of Snow taking down BMP with Javelin Note Convoy Down and to right Smoking Vechile is BMP Para just killed with Javelin Snow lets rip with an RPG on some infantry.

Parabellum 12 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Sweet screens, and sweet gameplay! Thanks again for the great games, mates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jack57 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I finally beat that Desert Ambush (Coop) in SP last night Man, what a marathon - there was only one guy other than me left standing at the end (well, the Medic was still alive but he couldn't stand He could still perform his medic duties though so I left him on hold back at the Landy, just in case). Tonight I will tackle Dek's new mission. Bound to be a walk in the park....right Dek? .......Dek? Hello? Uh oh ps: Hey Gordo you been playing the last couple of nights? I've looked for your server but didn't see it up and running Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Parabellum 12 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Seriously - great games tonight, gents. Gordo and myself holding off a bunch of badguys with a rifle and a pistol was one of the most fun moments I've had in awhile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gordo_Viper 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) Desert Ambush- yeah she's a hard one alright, esp in Single Player. A measure of luck has to go your way as well.......and the Mecic did he's job...good work that man. RE Dek's Mission... good luck really , you'll need it, not impossible just a few surprises here and there.. Darn you Dek's as Mike would say... And been at work mate... no joy at all @ Para indeed mate, up until last mob of OPFOR came up behind me...2nd tie through no mistakes.. EDIT:- Comms works ok- Jack and I tested TS...

Matt03 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Get a nice person outside the states to send you a copy. Pay them over the net or some other way that you work out and I would throw in a little something extra for their trouble. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Parabellum 12 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Yeah Gordo, that second try was a good one. Darned tank crew nearly got me though, and that T72 driving 3 meters away was very scary! Good effort by Snow and the AI lads in providing security whilst you and I took down the cats on that hill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gordo_Viper 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) @ Para- yeah that T-72 was awefuly close to running you over...thank god for those rocks....and the AT Mine. @ Jack, Dekela and Para Once again thanks for the experience of MP in VBS1... quite an eye opening experience esp now with Teamspeak For those craving screenies something different.... Aussie Humour at it's best..... how far will a UAZ go after setting 3 and maybe 5 satchel charges around it? Dekela and I had taken down two OPFOR, we closed in to check to some more AT weaponry We being Larrikins that we are decide to see what satchels charges and lots of em will do 4 Satchels later we are ready.... Moment of Detonation- three charges- Note UAZ near top of explosion Going Gone Landed about 100m Away... And Another this time with 5 charges... Going Going.... Landed about 200m away...

Gordo_Viper 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) Coalescent finally released it... BTW I noticed they haven't released USMC pack as well. Where as BIA does allow USMC 1 pack to be public... Edited August 13, 2004 by Gordo_Viper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whisper_44 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 This line in their FAQ cracks me up... If you would like to add specific, unique features for your organization, Coalescent can quickly develop new vehicles, equipment, weapon systems, personnel, terrains, missions and more for license. I'm sure those come at a cost to the user too - guess it pays to know about the FREE mods that Para & others are working on. tsk tsk tsk Coalescent Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And yes there are quite a few add ons on the way.... The USMC Pack is a real interesting decision considering there releasing in the US... it'd be like releasing everything bar the ADF pack in Australia..at least you can get US SF add on, and core are US Units.... but there will be user made missions people in the US can't use simply because we have models you guys won't have.

The_Slink 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Guys working on Operation Falconer. Check your thread in the modding part of GR.net's forums. Remember them? Further up the page. Or do you need a link? Dekela: I think towing it is better.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
