Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

I say this everytime I see one of these posts; the terrain in that map is not your work, dont claim it as if it was, even DICE know youve ripped it, from a comparison a few of us made from old editor screenshots you posted ages ago with editor shots of BF1942's. This and Gazala, theres no way you made them yourself.

If your level designer told you he made them himself, I understand why youd trust him, but I assure you, he's lying.

Just curious as how would YOU know? I mean, they're only been working on making this remake for about what, 20months now. And from talking to them for a while, they’ve been doing lots of trial and error.

I don’t understand why people give these guys (DCon) so much flak; most come from other MOD devs. Rather than troll around forums critiquing their work (tire tracks and whatnot), spend the time and figure out why only four (4) people currently playing your mod. Just a suggestion. Speaking of innovation, recently a MOD released their latest version, which used some of other MOD content, so what’s the difference? Ahh yeah, Coding/game play etc…I’m too lazy to post links search blah blah blah, but i’d suggest you brush up on your DCon FAQ before posting.

Anyhoo, classics never die. I’d take an ALMOST perfect EL AL with a hint of BF2 anytime.

Mind you, Project Reality has most of the Expansion and Booster Packs packaged in its download, so I guess its just not a big deal anymore. Noone values hard work in modding anymore.

You can claim we plagurize all you want. The fact is there were many mappers who worked on each one, there wasn't just 1 person involved in the heightmaps. These were done BY HAND. Why the F&#K do you think it's taken us this long to get them ready?!?! You have NO clue of the work involved with the maps in this mod. But, thanks for stopping by.

Here ya go Mister Know it all. Analyze this heightmap and colormap and compare it to the original. Can you guess what map it is??? I will give you a hint (FUfromWB).



I made the map and your right, it is a direct port...lol!! Now come get me heightmap police. Noone cares about what you say so save your fingers the drama already.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Another point is: innvoation is atm the most important thing on BF2. For mods. that´s the secret of the success of PR.
75% of the DCon content is the same like AF, EF, USI, PR or BF2 vanilla, possible POE2 soon. The maps are the same like BF42. So what´s new?
I really like El Al for DC. But it was another feeling. DC grew up on El Al., with A10 against german tigers ( DC 0.1) That was cool, the beginning.

Heres one for you. Go and play CTF in PR. Go play it in POE. Good luck. This is one of the biggest reasons I have been waiting for this mod.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

ah i remember that one clooney.

I personally find this subject hilarious. we don't make something the exact same, we get complained to for not being as good, we make it as close as the original as we can, we're scoffed at for not being original, or my favorite, we're guilty of plagiarism.

you guys are funny. I also love how we only get this when we show two maps, Inshallah, nothing, my map, Lost Village, not a thing, but El Alamein and Gazala seem to draw the baseless cries of porting from '42. it took us a year and a half to figure out how to copy an object and heightmap? please. When big bad EA comes after us for stealing i will start to listen, and even then, we have done nothing wrong. we made a map from scratch.

ok i've made my yearly interjection, back to the editor! :)

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

I'd prefer replica, which it is. Made me smile even within the first few seconds because of how similar it is to the original. Awesome work guys fantastic work. Ignore these ignorant bastards who are whining about it.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

I can't understand why this mod generates these responses. Perhaps someone wants to explain?

Because we are releasing content that most people think cannot be done without infringing upon copyright laws.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

cause DCon will rape all other mods for bf2.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

pretty funny, anyone thats played these maps knows they aren't exact duplicates. I've helped with most of the maps in one way or another and there's no way any are. I guess some people just need some attention, and well, we gave them some. I hope we've made your day :)

On a positive note, let me say that anyone that's been waiting for this mod will have a great time playing it. The feel is there

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

It's sad to hear alot of people whining about what looks like a great forthcoming release. Mods are free, and created through the hard work of dedicated gamers (in their own time), so just shut the **** up moaning and count your lucky stars you're getting any at all!

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Well i dont mind what are you saying, DCon it to make people feel old school, and i want that.

THey said they will work to get DC back, and thats what fans we are looking forwards.
Once that it is done maybe we will wait for something else.

Thanks DCon, i really liked that upgrade!!!!!!

All the best!

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Not getting into infringement or personal opinions, your pretty much matching the goal of replicating the Desert Combat look using the BF2 engine. It doesn't look like progress because it looks like we've been there(1942/DC) and thats what it should like. Like your backtracking. Your mod your world your rules. As long as your matching your goals, having ball doing it, and not stepping on each others shoes then who gives a flying duck...
