We are currently wrapping up work on Project Reality v0.85, and have what you've all been waiting for; a release date! Project Reality v0.85 will be released on Friday the 23rd of January, 2009. The Project Reality Team has been hard at work over the last few months, as you can see by the various dev journals that have been posted, to bring you this completely new version. 0.85 includes numerous gameplay changes, weapons, vehicles and maps which we hope will make your current realistic combat experiences on the Battlefield 2 engine even better!
British Army's AAC Lynx AH-7
The Lynx AH-7 is the fastest rotary aircraft in the world, and one of the many new assets for you to play with in v0.85. The Lynx will act as the Light Transport Helicopter for the British, much like the MH-6 Littlebird for the US Army. The Lynx can fit an entire 6 man squad in the back, plus pilot, and can transport them at fast speeds across the battlefield. Credits go to [R-DEV]foul_killer & Wybl for the model, [R-DEV]Pride for the textures and [R-DEV]TrahnLee for exporting and coding.
New Maps in Project Reality v0.85
Like with every release of PR, the most anticipated additions are new battlefields to fight on, and in PR v0.85 we have spared no expenses. There are four brand new maps made exclusively for Project Reality with v0.85 gameplay in mind. In addition, most current maps have received updates and overhauls, with bug fixes and various improvements to improve gameplay.
- Asad Khal
British Forces v. MEC
By: [R-DEV]Deer
This map features a rural middle eastern landscape with open fields and old village buildings. An AAS infantry battle between the British and MEC forces with four main objectives. For more information and screenshots, click here.
- Fallujah West
USMC with US Army Support v. Insurgents
By: [R-DEV]duckhunt
Created by [R-DEV]duckhunt, with lightmapping and bugfixing by [R-DEV]Rhino while duckhunt was away on tour in Afghanistan with the Royal Marine Commandos, Fallujah West gives a whole new meaning to urban warfare in Project Reality. This map is very compelling at capturing the environment of the recent conflicts in Iraq. Fallujah makes full use of the insurgency game mode with Insurgents defending Ammo Caches in many hidden locations inside buildings, compounds and underground bunkers, along with being able to setup ambushes for advancing USMC troops (with US Army Bradley support). For more information and screenshots of this map, click here.
We hope to see many of you on the battlefield with us this coming weekend playing PR v0.85. Keep your eyes on the forums for more information on v0.85 and it's impending release!
