i think helmand was kinda cool, but the afghan maps we got coming like sangin are even cooler looking imo. and archer too.

[R-MOD]Wasteland · 04-04-2008, 01:20 PM

Hell. No.

I hated that map.

[R-COM]Richy · 04-04-2008, 01:32 PM

yes,but try and make it scenario mode rather than the spammy aas mode it was in 0.6

[R-CON]marcoelnk · 04-04-2008, 01:55 PM

I think there are enough promising maps in the community-factions which are mainly infantry based (including mine but i wont dare to compare my map with any map made by a DEV

)
I didnt like Helmand.

Not the point here, Sangin is a BIG map, I am talking about bringing back some Infantry play with smaller maps to PR

.

Yes. Ever since the death of Mao Valley there has been a dangerous slide toward mahoosive maps dominated by heavy viechles.

[R-COM]Outlawz · 04-04-2008, 04:06 PM

No. No. No. Noooooo and nooooooo.

My worst 0.6 memories are from Helmand with Kashan uberA10 rape coming second.

A new 1Kmx1Km map (like OGT) with the same name and more space (villages, fields) would be better.

I loved helmand, the infantry combat was great- it even worked well in PRSP.

My only gripe with it is that the insurgents didn't really have a chance, unless the british team were TERRIBLE. (all brits really had to do was keep their distance and use scopes coupled with lat and .50s)

using some of the insurgency stuff to give them new tactical options would be good.

also- Bigger plz! - so that it doesnt become a meatgrinder so easily (more room to manouvre). - But don't be tempted to put heavy vehicles in.

Yeah, bring it back! I really enjoyed playing on Helmand, it seems the only other constant close infantry combat is in a city environment at the moment, not really my style.

Helmand = vanilla map

Flags are too close together. Just ends up in a BFvanilla style shoot shoot shoot run run nade shoot. Too hyper. Too fast. Not in the spirit of PR imo.
