US Intervention Mod Update

Re: US Intervention Mod Update

Its not that clear. In the US they say 1991 was Gulf War 1 and the actual thing is Gulf War 2, the rest of the world says that GWII was in 1991 and GWI was Iran vs. Iraq back from 1980 to 1988.

Short:
America:
GWI: 1991 (Coalition vs. Iraq), so-called persian gulf war
GWII: Current conflicts

Rest of the world (at least europe, lol):
GWI: 1980 - 1988 (Iran vs. Iraq)
GWII: 1991 (Coalition vs. Iraq)
there is no GWIII

Well, tbh, the mod name is US Intervention, so shouldn't it follow the arguably flawed US POV and call it a Gulf War I modification? Or is this an exercise in revisionism? Trust me when I say this, you'll get more bites from former DC players by calling it a Gulf War I mod. Gulf War II is considered to be present day ops in Iraq. Present day doesn't equal Desert Combat.

Desert Combat has not the copyright of a real event or modern warfare

Man, you really wish to butt heads don't you? What is your point? I stand by my statements 100%.


DC was in fact based loosely on GWI ('91). that's why it had maps like 73 Eastings...a real battle of GWI, Al Khafji Docks...real location battle of GWI. USI has 73 Eastings as well.

So again, what is your point Lobo?

Re: US Intervention Mod Update

The USI modding team is international so i don't see why they should use the wrong version because american use it just to please US fan-base ?!

Re: US Intervention Mod Update

My english is atrocius but I think my point is clear like pure water, you told the former DC players will complain because USI has the same theme as DC and I told DC has not the copyright over a real war, anyone, USI or whatever other mod can make the Gulf War if they want, DC did not invent the Gulf War

Your english is atrocious but I don't care....I read you lol.

I think yiu misunderstood what I was saying. I think USI would get more bites...meaning more interest in their mod if they called it a Gulf War I mod because of the content that is more closely associated with DC which is also a Gulf War I based mod. When DC fans see Gulf War II, they think present/near future battles which is what vanilla BF2 is.

So you misunderstood the term "bites". LOL...bites isn't bad. It's like when you go fishing out in a lake....the fish bite.

So I think more DC fans will bite on to USI if they change their marketing scheme to Gulf War I rather than II.

LMFAO!!!!!


Really Lobo, understand this....I love playing BF and all it's mods. I have logged so many hours playing FH it should be considered criminal lol. I just want to see as many mods succeed as possible....EXCEPT PR. (I'm just kidding)

I think by changing the USI marketing scheme, they might be able to capitalize on a huge player base that doesn't seem to be playing anything right now. Alot of DC fans don't realize that USI is based on the Gulf War from '91. If they did, they might be more inclined to give it a go.

Re: US Intervention Mod Update

I dont really think players will think ,hey give that one a go its based on the 1991 war not the 2003 one.I would like to think they'll say hey it's got a **** load of vehicles,kick *** maps,some damn nice skins and and it plays grrreeeeat (insert tony the tiger voice).
