Hatchetforce Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 jay, check your pm for a pic that HAS to become a map for a mission. The layout is a work of art and it is a real world Afghan Prison we found early in the war. The possibilities on a map like that are endless.

jay316 Posted December 18, 2005 Author Share Posted December 18, 2005 with that photo, we have similar compound in the map i sent you screens of and a video linked below. the architecher of the prison on the hill top compound (complete with a cell and all) looks similar to the prison in the pic so we could maby do a new valley terrain and make it a valley bottom prison maby, there is a link to the hilltop one (a later version than the screens i sent) here http://www.geocities.com/worm_recon/Mines/wm03_wip.mpg , but i can see if i can maby get a map out of that pic. what do you think of the map in the video?

Can supporting fire, either crew served, organic weapons systems be employed? What I am looking at is game balance. The video is great but I would still need to see what surfaces can be mantled (clambered) in order to look at the approaches. One of the limitations of Ghost Recon was the inability to mantle certain surfaces so allocations have to be made in the map design. Real world locations may seem impenetrable but there are always alternatives. Due to various limitations these alternatives may not be possible in GR, so map designers must make alternatives available while making such alternatives each have it's own particular price. From the screens and information I have gleaned thus far the mod looks to break new ground and create quite a stir. The skins I have seen were impressive. The shots of the Afghans I sent you were from the Panshjir Valley. It was humorous in that one day they were dressed in local garb providing ob garem and the next day they were in uniform carrying AKs at Baghram where they came in handy getting rid of the press.

Hope everyone in the Bradley was ok and hope your brother stays safe. ← There have been a lot reports recently of other US Military and contractor hardware being used by terrorists in both Afghanistan and Iraq. The recent hit on Edinburgh Risk on Route Irish was an example. According to the AAR, the bad guys appeared to be using a hard suburban as their cover during the ambush. There have also been recent reports suggesting new advanced IED techniques too, including explosively formed projectiles (EFP) for attacks against armored vehicles. The last time we saw terrorists using EFP against mobile targets was the '89 Herrhaussen assassination by the RAF. Afghanistan and Iraq have definately turned into some rough neighborhoods.

element11 Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Man, if the US weaponry is only being manufactured for the military, then how would this stuff get out to the black market? Surely they can easily keep better track of their stuff?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
