Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Pete, I ask you reserve your final judgments till you've had a good run on these maps, they take BF2's updated graphics, lighting, and everything else and fully utilize them......believe me, the maps look amazing, these guys have done a wonderful job bringing the DC experience onto the BF2 engine, but not only that, they made it look sound and feel just absolutely beautiful!

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

What about people who never play DC? They can not try to play DCON???

I cant uderstand why people form other mods are talking like this.

Exactly!!!!!!!!! And thats why i put away by bf1942 discs. As much as i loved playing DC, BF2 was out and the one thing that i hoped would happen is what DCON is about to deliver.

And btw pete, the reason that wake for bf2 is better is because it uses bf2's engine. The island is the same as the original game.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Wow, people still love to talk crap about our work, lol. It really makes me laugh, and wonder what your friggin lives must be like.

Nothing was stolen, so quit making up stuff and putting your foot in your mouth. I am suprised to hear such insane nonsense from an FH2 dev. We somehow think of you guys as the Old Vets, not a loudmouth kid, who is so sure about something, yet so completely wrong at the same time, lol.

I would just ask ,Why shouldn't I just pop in the 1942 disc,as opposed to the bf2 disc that taxes my proscessor just to play Desert Combat, if D-Con isn't offering anything more in the way of asthetics?

Well, why not make USI for an old engine?

Why make maps called "73 eastings" with a mod that obviously was trying to make a DC styled game?


Thanks for the support from the people who give it.

Maybe a studio of other mods can join forces to find ways to insult and or be concerned about our game. You can call it "Crap talking Studios" and share your crap talking powers for support.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Well bro, 73 Eastings was a real battle in the Gulf War as you may know. US:I is a Gulf War mod so they are going to have similiar maps/battles because of that. I believe they did make US:I for BF:V originally, but they decided to put all their work into making it a BF2 mod.

I would just like to make clear I am no longer an FH2 dev. My opinions are my own, and whilst I still disagree with you im not a troll and havent kept arguing in your news thread, but I dont speak for FH2, I'm not on it anymore, even though they havent removed me from the staff page.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Well, I can see that this will be the most controversial mod to date.

But you know what that means, probably the most downloaded mod for BF2 when we release...why...because so many people are drawn to drama and criticism.

Back when BF2 first released I was so stoked about playing a new game and so was my whole clan. We used to play the heck out of it, like the old DC days but after a month of this, it started to ware on all of us. Next thing I heard from people was "Man I miss El Alamein" or "Man I miss 73 Eastings". I started feeling this as well and decided to do something about it. So I downloaded the editor and was going to do a remake of 73 Eastings for my stepfather who loved that map. I had no idea what I was doing so I would take screenshots and put them on PlanetBattllefield forums asking for help. This all led to DCon finding me and asked me if I would join as a mapper. Wow, that was just really cool to me, a group of guys with the same passion for DC as I (and my clan) had.

After dumping hours upon hours, day in and day out of learning this and that about mapping and the editor I realized that I could contribute alot to DCon's mapping effort. We all had the same thing in mind, bring back DC to the BF2 engine.

As you all know, this mod will never be like DC but noone understands just how damn close we are trying to acheive it. I have personally redone El Alamein about 5 times and 73 Eastings 3 times. After learning programs like Terragen, WorldMachine and brushing up on my Photoshop skills I was able to map with more efficiency and more quality. All of this time and self-dedication to one thing all for the purpose of others to enjoy it.

That brings me to this: why people???

Why on earth should I do all of this selfless work for a bunch of ungrateful and jealous people that I dont even know. To see my work on this website getting slammed and being accused of ripping off original work is a slap in the face. I would rather each and everyone here to come to my house and drop-kick me between the legs. Why should we be answering questions of "Why dont I just go play DC instead of downloading your mod"???? We shouldnt have to be answering those questions..if you dont like what our mod is about...go to another thread and ignore the DCON PR Releases.

How would you all feel if someone you didnt know came into your place of work and told you that you were lazy and then drank your coffee?

You people are something else and I really have no idea why our news keeps making it over to this website. If it were up to me, it would stay in our community of supporters that actually have something nice to say.

Society these days allows this type of disrespect but there are still some hard-working individuals out there that take pride in their work. All you nay-sayers obviously dont because you would know what it feels like when something you worked so hard on was destructively criticized into oblivion.

Constructive criticism: "Wow, thats nice..but the sand could be brighter"
Destructive criticism: "Wow you guys ripped those heightmaps off DICE"


You people sicken me with your disrespect and lack of knowledge!

Its human nature to be curious
Its stupid nature to accuse without proof

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Petetmoster29, it is obvious that you already made your mind about this MOD (although I grantee, I will see you and the likes of you playing this MOD when it’s released, but that’s another story lol), no matter what anymore say to you, it goes in one ear and out the other, so I wont waste my time on you anymore. However, I would like to point one thing to you. You see the blue text under your name? Yeah the one says US Intervention MOD team, you represent them, and your actions reflect the team you’re in. So every time you throw one of these temper tantrums, it reflects poorly on you as a person and your MOD team as a whole.

Re: Desert Conflict PR Media Release #1

Way I see it... Work for hours and hours to get the map feel like the original and its all "copy heightmap" talking.
So i really spend days after days working on 2 computers, 1 with the original map and one with the editor to here that stuff?
Well... thanks.

Turn it around and make a map that is just the same size and has the same buildings and vehicles and thats about it, you will here "Why are you calling it like that, it does not even looks like the original"

So you will never do the right thing.

To keep this short, just please download the alpha, play it on a filled up server and see if your getting a bit of that old DC feeling.
If not, delete it, play another mod, or just find another 24/7 strike at karkand server.
Its not DC, it will never be.
The BF2 engine will keep DC and DCON away from each other.
BUT you can have the same fun as in DC.
Why?
Because the DC community will hopefully play it.
Because whe are doing everything we can to put in the stuff again that needs some skills.
And those old DC players are different then BF2 players.
They spot an artillery place for you, they work in a team, and they dont care when the next badge will pop-up.
Its not only the mod that controls the gameplay you know.
We are trying to give you the tools to have the same fun again.
Its up to the people if they use it or not.
And people who never did played DC will like it too.
Why does almost every mod has the A10 in it?
Or the Hind?
They are even in the booster packs from BF2.

And thats not only because they look nice.
People have feelings with that plane and chopper.
They remember how they loved flying with those.
And they want that feeling again.
lol, I'll stop now, because its not short at all anymore.

I'll bet ya LOBO wouldn't jump down my damn throat about me askin the same thing about FH2 ,but any dolt can see whats improved in that mod already from their posts.
Sorry I don't have time to hang around your website all day to find out the latest apart from when one of your cats starts barkin at me.
Maybe I got to dig a little and get specific.
Do you have higher rez screens?
Did you take out the locking missiles?
Do you have bofors or the stingers?
Do you have dumbfire rockets?
Shawn Hoof somebody?

Obviously, no one else thinks you didn't sound abrasive towards this mod.

I can do higher res screens if I need to.
NO LOCKING MISSLES
We have stingers, of course! - Dumbfire, of course.
DUMBFIRE FTW!! :)
