CO8 Easy Pickings [PMC]

[lNTRUDER 26]

Hi all,

Releasing my latest co-op mission featuring the brand new PMC DLC:

"CO8 Easy Pickings"

Mission:

Find and extract two civilians who were captured by insurgent forces.

That is all ;)

Notes:

The Team Leader is the only one that can secure the civilians (Target Alpha and Bravo). So the TL must be present and must not be an AI.

Mission is also playable in SP.

Definitely a nice mission to showcase PMC. I loved the technical near the start that rushed us.

But, it would be nice to have the leader as an actual leader class, so we get the binoculars, and a rifle + optics, as opposed to an MG, which isn't very helpful as a squad leader. I'd rather another soldier carry the MG.

[lNTRUDER 26]

Thanks HateDread :)

And you have a valid point about the team leader. I will take a look at this for the next version.

The PMC ammo box is called special weapons in the editor. No idea why , good mission :)

Great mission, 2 of us cleared this earlier. All objectives worked and the mission completed perfectly. I was a little disappointed at the lack of resistance at the airfield, getting to extraction was far too easy as well, We just took a Uaz and made a dash for extraction. Maybe make it harder after the first objective.

Played this with about 5 folks on a dedicated server for a bit of fun. Never found target Alpha, he may have been accidentally killed (is there a trigger on his death aka "mission fail!"?); we did see a couple of civis running madly around (expected him to be hiding/holed up under a couple of guards in a building, so searched all buildings within about 100m of the marker, no luck).

[lNTRUDER 26]

Thanks for the feedback gnarly.

It seems I may have messed something up in the 0.50 version. I have also seen this happening playing on a dedicated server. But that time we were in luck and eventually found Alpha standing 50 m south of the mosque.

He is really not supposed to leave any of the 7 different spawn positions (within the block where the Alpha marker is).

And yes, if Alpha is killed it will trigger one of the mission endings.

I'll see what I can do to fix it, I have already moved on to new projects ya know ;-)
