MarkAm_i Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Is it possible to play alongside the opfor against human players? In the past I've had friends who I could convince to play 9v9 with me. What we call GR chess, two players, each with his 8 AI backup. The problem I found was that because I had had so much experience with commanding (and had host's advantage) I won so consistently that it wasn't fun for my opponents. This sucked because it was the funnest way to play against other players, it really takes all you've got when you're trying to think strategy and fight aggressively against another player. Plus it only takes 2 players and you can end up with some real interesting battles. I've been wondering if it's possible to play Team v Team with one team getting support from a group of friendlies not under their control. In YOTM there is a firefight mode where you eliminate 15 enemies. These 15 opfor are pretty good at moving as a mob, overwhelming you if you are alone or with too little friendly support. What I think would be great is having the option of playing a Team mission where one side gets support of anywhere from 5 or 10 of these intelligent squads. If he uses his three fireteams to maneuver with or around these friendlies, he could catch his opponent and have chances to win in spite of being less experienced at commanding his teams. This could be a lot of fun. I miss GR chess, with an equalizer I might get an old friend or two to give it another shot or find new people to play it with. Is it doable?

RileyFletcher_01 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 You can, through a script, spawn a force, but it would either be a hostage force or you would have to make them hostile, so no, through a gametype you cannot have AI support, aside from your 8 man team.

Operative Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I remember the hostages can be armed, maybe this is a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkAm_i Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 I remember the hostages can be armed, maybe this is a way. What I was looking for is more like having one team spawn on the opposite side of a firefight. So one player kills all and the other player has a certain number of friendlie on the map to work around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
