Desert Conflict Mod Update - CH-53

[Spawndemon]

There is a new update posted today over at the Desert Conflict mod website. This time they are back showcasing their CH-53 Sea Stallion. Take a look:

The CH-53 Sea Stallion is one of the largest helicopters in the US inventory. The twin-engined variant shown here can lift 6,350 kg. I can also carry 37 passengers in its normal configuration and 55 with centreline seats installed. Originally designed as a heavy-lift helicopter, it is now used in the medium-lift role, three-engined variants with more than twice the lifting capacity replacing it in the heavy-lift role. The helicopter performed with distinction in Operation Desert Storm and will remain in service until 2015 when it is scheduled to be be replaced by the V-22 Osprey.

Re: Desert Conflict Mod Update - CH-53

Sea rigs is a map for Desert combat, it was pretty fun, and this big chopper was in it.

I am really starting to get annoyed by the DCON dev team. They are releasing all these new things when they should be releasing a small portion of the mod, then update with patches like USI. DCON needs to release soon,

Re: Desert Conflict Mod Update - CH-53

I just hope it plays more like dc than bf2. BTW make the choppers fly like the dc choppers, not these bf2/bfv choppers.

Looks sweet :) Doesn;t look very dangerous, but the model is brilliant. Nice one, DCon!

Re: Desert Conflict Mod Update - CH-53

Looks pretty cool but the skin feels really monotone, while the Apache you showed was a huge step forward; this just feels so-so, even behind some of your other media. Not that it looks bad, just it seems to look like your early models/skins and lack the details you showed on some of your other more recent models/skins.

Well these vehicles arent being released yet. They are just a few of the updates from front of our web site about different levels of progress. We are not releasing this mod until its finished. Our updates will be content and gameplay driven, but our first release will not be a beta.

Its funny you mention USI, even though the big boys arent done with there MODs yet. Do you give them the same advice? Im interested in this answer, im not trying to be sarcastic.

Re: Desert Conflict Mod Update - CH-53

You'd think it wasn't very dangerous, untill you here the thump of the engine, turn around and get hundreds of bullets to the face from it's mini guns.
