Welcome to the Jungle! ... (ok I know that's not the song's about.. anyway) Yay!

Wake up, time to die!

Really hoping to see some of those 1942 EOD classics to return, one of my favourites Khe Sahn Valley with the red sandy terrain and the big firebase.

Purple haze all in my brain, fantastic

How many maps in the first release?

Lobo, if you go to www.eodmod.com there is a map list. It is subject to change, but will most likely remain as is for now. But I think theres somewhere around 12 maps, some of them with several versions.

Re: Eve of Destruction Mod Update

The last build was about 1gig. I think that it might go down a little, but not much.

Re: Eve of Destruction Mod Update

Expect 1gb +
Around 1 - 1.2gb would be close to the mark.

There is a hell of a lot of content, here's the list...

This isn't a half mod, where you have some reskinned weapons the same old bf2 soldiers and vehicles, this is the real deal. All new weapons, all new soldiers, all new vehicles and all new maps. This is a full on total modification.

First Impressions:
We have created a new HUD look from the spawn interface colors all the way down to new Loading Screens and military topo style minimaps.

This release will focus on infantry combat mainly, you will have the following weapons to play with....

US Army

Grease Gun

We also have several new Stationary Weapons in game.

Mounted 50Cal
80MM Mortar
M2A1 Artillary

NVA\VC

Mounted DSHK
81MM Mortar
M46 Artillary Gun

However, that doesn't mean there are no vehicles to play with. We have

US Army

And then we have the

Maps

Who'll Stop the Rain (Conquest + Single Player/Coop)

Map list is subject to change.

As you notice, there are two new game modes! Assault, the defending team must defend their one and only flag. If it is greyed by the other team all is lost and the opposing team wins. If the flag is defended for the preset 20 minute durration of the round then the defending team wins the round.

With Objective mode the gameplay is simple. There will be destructable objects scattered through the map that the defending team must defend\repair. Once those objects are destroyed the attacking team wins. If the objects are defended and held in tact for the duration of the round the defending team wins.

Sounds:

Don't stop reading now! Theres even more! In addition to all of the things listed above which you expect we have gone a bit farther. Almost all of the Dialogs have been replaced With new! This includes Rose Coms and any additional voices like "Throwing Frag" and death sounds. Thanks to a few talented voice actors this was accomplished for both USA and NVA\VC teams.

We also have a completely new Soundtrack for all loading screens! There are somewhere around 30 new tracks Performed recorded and edited by Taichi! All of these songs are geared towards the Vietnam era Music Genre and do a very good job of setting up atmosphere.

The new sounds however, do not stop here! Almost all of the weapons and vehicles have brand new sounds. In addition the maps as well have brand new ambient environment sounds.

To Finish the expectations up please take into consideration that our mod team works with one concept in mind and that is GAMEPLAY. If you dont like our not so uber grafix or our lack of animations for most of the weapons, too bad! We mod solely for the gamer, as gameplay as our #1 objective at all times.
