Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

Hmmm...I smell a noob.

You must not like teamwork, or higher-quality stuff, or anything unranked.

Good job.

Most mods are ok. Some are not as good because they don't know what they are doing.

PRMM is great, so is OPK. Haven't played many others extensively.

Vanilla BF2 is far worse than any mod, IMHO.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

Most mods are crap. Either you don't like them or they're just not worth playing. But remember, not any mod is ready yet and they'll get better. Maybe some people just like it different. Vanilla is nice, but realism in Reality Mod rocks. I don't need more weapons or other content, Reality Mod is what I've been waiting since June 2005 and that's what BF2 was supposed to be. And I'm sure I'm not alone.

Other mods? I don't know. USI, name tells everything, not interested in huge amount of hardware, I prefer infantry. OPK? Promising, not so different from vanilla, infantry oriented. I do like it. There are already too many mods to mention, but I guess PR is enough for me until PoE and DC are released. After a year or so vanilla will probably be the worst of those four.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

USI strongly discourages teamwork by giving helo pilot AT missile and engineer AA (i mean engineer? that means tankers can just pop out from tanks and shot at aircrafts)

OPK: flight physics sucks: if you are going to make missiles that bad, make planes more agile.

DISCLAIMER: i am only listing the downside of each mod here. USI is actually awesome in vehicular combat (can't say the same for infantry), and OPK has a nice feel to it.

Ive had no problems with the missles in OPK?
If anything the helis are insanely manuveralbe fly 200 feet up and i can barrel roll that thing 500 times, that being said I love the choppers in OPK they seem very balanced but not in the routine way of giving everyone the same weapons. Hind doesnt have all teh fancy missles that the gunner in the Tiger gets but it can also drop off a squad, tiger can own like mad but it is only an attack chopper and cant cap flags.

Havent flown the jets yet but from what ive seen they look very fast and manuverable (and why would you make them more so if the anti air is bad wont that just make it easier for them to avoid?)

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

Some of the armor maps in USI are great fun, zoom and sabot/heat rounds are a nice touch. The guns and jets sound very realistic - noisy.

With the mods (USI) one can see that infantry only maps are boring. While USI comes with many maps, they all seem to lack detail and look very scarce.

I hate what mods do to the commander assets. Not liking to play hide and seek with snipers, I prefer when the commander drops arty (or a crate) on them.
Dear Developers, what is wrong with UAV? It adds to gameplay, on most popular maps UAV/scan/Arty are the best tools to prevent flag hopping and protect the main base, this way provide a great game for everybody.

Vehicles and Helicopters in OPK are very detailed and great, though the choppers flight physics needs adjusting. I love the new classes, g3 with unlimited ammo ^^, go figure. But the heavy recoil is bolloks, and hopefully the devs will change that.

OPK is also the only mod which uses new buildings, and doesn't feel like it came out of the recycler. With open building it feels much more like 1942.
IMO its also more realistic than PRMM 0.3.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

Yeah. Because there aren't enough Call of Duty games as it is.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

personally i dont like uav or arty and think its better without them>nudges POE and desert please dont add these .

secondary armour and helo weapons are a nice add for bf2

and i like my infantry maps ,much more fun to do gun fights than bombing runz for me:p

so please modders we need a few on foot(only) maps:)

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

i don't tend to judge betas or prototypes but so far I haven't seen anything fantastic from OPK or USI which is to be expected. From my experience the drastic modes or very new features are rarely implemented in builds that provide just a taste of content. This is true with what early PRMM showed to us, the BF2 community.

I've found that each mod needs some balance tweaks be they kit or map changes and i'm not that please with most Helo content provided.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

MY only beef with some of the mods is that I need to set everything to medium, and no AA to get them working (USI esp.) or sels I get a CTD.

While I's more real not knowing who or what killed you, I prefer the arcade BF2 'player X killed Y with Z' that some mods have removed.

Would Karkand be a better map without armor? - No, you need armor to break the defenses?

Would BF2 be a better game without arty/UAV? - No, lack of both results in far more camping, more chaos, random wins&losses more surprising firefights.

Snipers asked, the mods (USI,PRMM) delivered: a few infantry maps no UAV, no Arty. Surprise! Its not a better gameplay, or is it.

Re: Mods ,Mods ,Mods what u think?

Man, I jsut downloaded Reality Mod yesterday. Absolutelly LOVE it! First mod that I actually like!

There's no point whoring, there is not granade/claymorespamming... it's ALL ABOUT TEAM WORK! And it's SO MUCH FUN.

It felt so different and good to play on those maps. You didn't just run carelessly and kill anyone or get shot.

No health bars, no cross-hairs for aiming... one shot kills... you walk around the map and you're being careful!

I loved the Jungle map, and there are so many other GREAT new maps. Also, Karkand night map is awsome!

Love the little birdy. Great that you can't change camera views. Can only look ahead (from the inside) and back, nicely mounted camera on the back of the jet, looks way cool with a back view!

If you get shot and survive, you will still be slowly dying, so you gotto have a medic around to help you out, or you will die even if u kill the enemy and stay wounded.

Cars, jets, helis don't respanw sooooooo fast and if urse get shot down it stays on fire for a long time on the ground, which looks way cool!

One thing that REALLY annoyed me thought, was, spawn times. I don't know if it was th server but GOD! 50secs to look at the 'You been critically wounded' message and then another 16sec 'You have been killed' and if you change squad during that time, it adds anpther 35seconds or something like that, ok, stops squad hopping which is cool but ****, the spawn time ****ed me off.



all in all, BEST MOD EVER!

other mods feel weird, different feeling, and jsut suck but this is the best!
