Will it even be fun?

can you even see people at 2-3KM? We're going to need better optics for the binoculars for this map, maybe give it double the zoom it currently has.

They are a tiny spec and as for better optics, scopes where very uncommon back then and we are thinking about trying a more realistic approach for the binoculars in this ie, only squad leaders and a few other kits will get them.

As such, engagements at ranges will be quite difficult, but possible

Like in the PR:V mini mod?

Wait. Are you suggesting someone might actually try to engage another person at 2-3 km? So does this mean we're going to have .50BMG scoped rifles?

[[R-DEV]Rhino]

Ye, PR:V is also trailing it but not see easy to tell its effects in dense jungle

And scopes on 50cals where just as uncommon as scopes on rifles back then

Which is a point need to remove the zoom from deployable HMGs...

Would suggest changing deployable 50 calibre to deployable GPMG pit

it in this situations that i think tehre should exist a arma 2 kind of zoom for the iron sights, we cant really get a realistic view on long /medium range combat with the current resolutions

Would be interested to see how this plans out since I have spent 4 months on that shitty island, would love to drop a JDAM on the annoying penguins.

arma2 zoom feels soooooo unrealistic to me... One of the big things I personally think PR:ARMA2 should have removed.

Yes I've heard all of the arguments for it, but for me, they don't personally add up and BF2's fixed FOV feels a lot more realistic and much easier to be immersed in I find.


And sorry Yarri, no penguins to kill

Totally agree with you, I think it should be removed but thats for the ARMA part of the forums. To get back on topic I really like this idea, pushing the engine limits of the BF2 engine is awesome and I really hope it will be done, a jet layer would be really cool.
