Muttrah City

[imported_Rhino]

Here it is guys, finally after over a years work, here is Muttrah City v2.0!

For thous of you who never played the first Muttrah City in the early versions of PR, the map focuses on a Amphibious Air Assault via the USMC on the Capital of Oman, Muttrah City. The MEC are well dug into the city and it will take lots of street to street, hard urban combat to push them out and fully gain control While the MEC on the other hand, providing they can keep on there feet and shoot down the incoming choppers, can push the USMC right back into the sea.

Now I will say there was more I wanted to do with this map, and although yes this is finished for v0.8, I do plan on working on this map more for v0.85 and later to add the detail and things I wanted to but due to deadlines I could not do everything I wanted here. Never the less, the map is still VERY playable as seen in stress testing, loads of fun and dose not feel "unfinished" for the most part.

Enjoy, question and feedback are also welcome! :)

Re: Muttrah City

Hm.. Do these white circles represent capzones? Will we be able to cap a flag from anywhere in that circle?

Re: Muttrah City

cheers guys.

ye, thous radius's are around the cap radius's of the CPs, this map is more of a "area control" map

Nice work from the PR team. Rhino: great attention to detail! :thumbsup:

I just hope that nades will be fixed for 0.8 so they cna actually be useful when clearing out buildings.

Re: Muttrah City

I have no problems with nades in the last release?

Re: Muttrah City

i see nothing wrong with the nades either? i jsut throw one in switch to auto and spray everything. if the nade dont get them, they are usually suppressed by it

but muttrah is going to be epic, i just wish we could have like 64v64

Your serious? You throw one into one of the bunkers on Mestia, wait, waaaait, hear the boom, go in there and get sprayed down by a coughing militant.

The blast radius is so small that if the nade goes to one side of the bunker and he runs to the other (wich he has plenty of time to do) he will just get hurt and not killed like he did in previous versions.

Or my favorite that i love doing: He throws a nade into my bunker and i just walk outside and kill him before the nade blows up.

I dont mid the deviation (apart from the fact that the nade physics are weird now:p) or the fuse, the fuse time is a bit long compared to what i was used to, but its ok.

What i do mind is when i throw a nade inside a bunker and it doesnt kill the people inside it.

I had 0 problems with nades in previous reliases. They vere effective and actually killed people. Now i have to throw 2-3 inside a bunker to be sure that the guy inside doesnt survive. And that gives him plenty of time to do something clever like thowing a nade back or simply walking outside and killing me while i stand there helpless with my nade out. Sure, my squad will most likely kill him afterwards, but that doesnt help me much coz im pretty dead....

nades do note penetrate solid objects, they are probaly on the floor above the nade explosion and as a result, dont get damaged much.

I have no probs with nades, if any thing they are too deadly for game play.

Re: Muttrah City

What happened with PR being realistic? A nade SHOULD kill everyone inside a bunker, and im not talking about the people on the second floor. Im talking about the fact that if you are in the south western corner and someone throws a flag that lands in the north eastern corner, you will survive.

That should simply not happend.

What was so wrong with nades kill radius before you guys nerfed them?

Re: Muttrah City

nades are realistic :p

There is a reason why troops are taught to throw 3 nades into a building at once since 1 nade might not cut it.

I remember duckhunt coming back from his marine training for a week, and when we where playing PR on TS he said though the middle of it after we just fragged out a building "the really ****ty thing about nade spam is that is realistic, we are taught to toss 3 nades into a building at once hehe"

All my last comment said about is getting nade spammed, from a gameplay perspective is rather crappy, never said we had nefered them :p

Re: Muttrah City

nades are realistic :p

No? An explosion in a confined space should kill everyone in there. But AFAIK, BF2 engine doesnt know where the nade blows up so the damage will be the same

I understand why you guys "made a longer fuse" and added the deviation to nades. And shortened the throw distance.

But why in heavens name did you reduce the kill radius?

Btw, if that cant be called nerfing then idk what can:p

Re: Muttrah City

some where around there is some realistic ballistic values for frag nades but if I can remember its something like 10m radius = kill, 30m radius = wounded etc, thou dont quote me and the values, we have matched out nades as close to them as possible within the limits of the BF2 engine.
