Pls don't ban him. He's innocent.

give input, don't shy away from giving extra input in a reply, with what you'd like to see in the events you vote for, I'm always open to suggestions and new ideas, but PR usually isn't, so do consider limitations of my mental capacity and the BF2 engine in your suggestion.

I'd like to remind you I have no guarantees I'll follow through with the highest voted suggestion, this is just to figure out what people wanna see since they've gone through plenty of the same style of gameplay in these events, also to explore different areas of event making which I haven't done yet other than making normal COOP layers.

I've spent the last 2 or 3 weeks editing layers for the available BF2 maps ported to PR, and while I do actually test maps before I run them on events (as hard as it is to believe), I still can't accurately evaluate their performance with real players on, AI teammates can only really get you so far in local testing, so I've decided to do a public test run for this upcoming event to get a better idea of what issues I need to look out for. Keep in mind I've still got some things to iron out, and some infantry focused layers to make, which won't take much time. But this is why I've set it a little farther than usual.

Respawn speed is fixed (yes I've said this for every event post, and it hasn't been true for any of them lmao) and there will be a script running for bots (thanks to X0R, absolute legend) so they actually respawn reasonably quickly now.

Remember that this is a test run, which means I'll need people to actually note down or remember any issues they notice in maps, anything from weird bot behavior, difficulty concerns, ideas, or balancing changes. And either let me know on the spot, OR in the discord thread I'll make at the start of the event.

RULES:

During this test, and when I eventually host the real event, MECH INF may claim an APC even if only 2 are available on the map, of course using the lightest one if applicable. I HIGHLY encourage mechanized squads to take advantage of this, and utilize their armor effectively even after dismounting at/near a flag, like dismounting infantry and then retreating to a safer position to cover your squad from.

For the sake of convenience, during this test (this rule may be considered again for the future) If a MECH INF squad has been made, and no APC squad is to be seen, you may create a second MECH INF squad to claim another APC for your mechanized squad, this is to encourage more usage of APCs.

Standard VG Rules apply, do not teamkill, disrupt, or annoy other players, unless it's against polish and do not waste assets or use them irresponsibly.

Huge thanks to TED for providing me with a large majority of these maps to edit, you'll likely notice 2 or 3 layers made by him which are still present.

Hello, I am planning an event that strictly runs BF2 maps, and was considering to change the kit restrictions to be more similar to how BF2 used to handle kit distribution. Obviously not to the level of having 10 LATs running around with SMAWs, but I'll still tune some kits on certain maps to be closer to the BF2 equivalent, without taking away from crucial items.

If you're having trouble figuring out what I'm asking, it's basically to figure out if you wanna see in the next event things like a friendly full squad running only medic kits, or a friendly full squad of snipers running around like hooligans in CQB. And if you would like to remove the minimum squad members requirement.

 Note: There will likely be 1-2 kits I'll still restrict regardless of the poll outcome, although you'll still get a higher amount than what we usually have.

Thank you for attending, feel free to leave any feedback you have, or mention any issues you saw.

After some time, making great use of the period between the last event, and definitely not procrastinating I'm glad to say another event is in works and will likely be ready sometime in May, maybe even end of this month if I'm satisfied with the maps.

The selection of maps remains the same, 14 or so maps, included are Mao Valley and Hills of Hamgyong (+ Zatar, all from the Retro map pack, ty Helpman). I've decided to omit Operation Nightshift and Operation Compton due to their poor performance (gameplay wise weren't fun) in the last event.

I've already modified some layers with feedback from the previous event in mind, and fixed issues like my dumbass messing up factions on Zee's Sbeneh Region Std, please keep in mind this is still a PR event, and made by me of all people, so expect anomalies like flags with weird names, a lot of crashes, and many sighs. I am still editing and adding to some layers, note that layers which weren't played yet from the last event (there was quite a few) will mostly be unchanged. I've taken the liberty to make some more slightly questionable layers. Because c'mon, when do you ever get to fight an Abrams in a Panzer 4?

Hello again!

Here's another event of slightly less questionable quality than the last one, this time with the Singleplayer map pack generously provided by Sir.Helpman as always, however with my added twist on them, I've spent the last 10 or so days editing existing layers and gradually changing them, you'll notice some layers probably suck, those are likely the ones I made at the start of the week, but I've taken care of each layer I made, and did my best to make them fun (you have stuff to shoot) but challenging (stuff shoots at you)

This event will include the maps from the last event (i.e Bijar, Archer, Jabal, Ghost Train) AND the PR Singleplayer Map Pack, which includes 13 maps! although I've decided to exclude a few as they kinda suck gameplay wise and bots get stuck on certain parts of them. To clarify, I have not touched Archer, Bijar or Jabal, only adding some extra bot spawns on Bijar alt, fixing issues with Jabal alt and adding a lower dam flag whilst moving up the original flag to the top.

Thanks to @=VG= XOR, the issue with bots respawning too slowly will be rectified

Instructions to download the maps:

Step 1: Download the files from the Download Link button

Step 2: Extract the .zip into your Project Reality > mods folder, like this, that's it!

I'm still too lazy to make any proper pictures, but basically don't trust any of the asset lists before loading in, I've changed 90% of the assets, and flag capture order on most layers like nightshift, all the flags except the far right are already capped by the Russians.

cool pics that are unrelated to layers above

Please thank @=VG= Zeee for making Al Sbeneh Region Std! 

Thank you X0R & TED, and whoever else I forgot to mention that helped me greatly in putting this event together, and providing me with very valuable information to map editing.

Please remember that this is the first ever event I've done with my own idea of balancing layers, even though I've spent the last week and some more editing layers, trying to be careful to not make things too hard, but also give you a challenge for the asset you're playing, and still make it fun like adding a joke vehicle here and there, I'm still not a PR dev with years of experience making layers, so you'll very likely see anomalies like a vehicle not meant for you in the assets list, bots shooting beyond the view distance etc. I've tried my best to rigorously test all the layers I changed, but I'm not perfect so expect discrepancies here and there.

You may remember the Retro Maps Event I made almost 2 years ago featuring very, VERY old maps like Gulf of Oman, Battle for Qinling, and Daqing Oilfields. This was meant to be a follow-up event with more maps from the same pack, and the difficulty of maps increased exponentially due to the increased reports of easy and unchallenging maps. However, after some deeper insight, we thought that it would be more suitable to improve the maps from the retro pack first, before hosting another event with them, and potentially giving people a lackluster experience with much to desire. So instead, I've opted to host an event consisting of a 6-12 hours rotation (potentially 24 hour event) of Bijar Canyons, Operation Archer, Jabal Al Burj and additionally Operation Ghost Train, with all their layers, except Operation Archer INF.

Thank you for attending!

Additional Map:

Thank you Sir.Helpman for providing the maps, this event wouldn't be possible without you

Thank you Polish for providing the map file for Operation Ghost Train! 

Please keep in mind that server crashes and balancing discrepancies (some layers easy, others hard) are expected due to the layers being completely untouched over the years they were removed. I am planning in the near future to revisit these maps, make additions, change factions, and hopefully include more playable maps in later events from the Retro map pack, but only time will tell.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A NORMAL SERVER MAP LIST TO RUN, DO CHECK MELON'S POST BELOW FOR NORMAL SERVER MAPS.

Inspired from Melon's post (which i also contributed for the lists there). Here are the list of the maps i picked personally to run according to the population amount as well as their difficulty wise.

Please do note some of your favorite maps do came in hardest difficulty as i saw them under new players perspective of their first time playing a round in OPFOR side of things. Play them by your own risk!

Hope these helps!

I'm currently experimenting with changing the bot behaviours. various tweaks and such. There's been a few of these changes running quietly in the background for a few days to see if anyone noticed a big difference. So now I'm just taking a poll on the changes and letting you tell me what you do and don't like.

These changes will continue to run on the server for a while, so if you're unsure about anything, jump in and give it a try.

All feedback welcome

EDIT: Just to be clear, these changes are currently running on the Veterans Gaming Coop server. I am not looking for your opinions on how these changes sound. I'm looking for feedback on the changed bots that are currently on the server. This helps me work further with AI tweaks.
