Excellent addon as usual, BAS. Superb realism, textures, and sound effects, yet still not "overly done" like some addons. You guys keep raising the bar for quality addons and never fail to impress us with your outstanding work. Thank you again and keep up the good work!

Guys/Gals...thanks for all the postivie comments and constructive criticism.

A few points:

- The SOCOM...didn't make it into release but will appear in a weapons upgrade patch in a couple of weeks

- The M24 NV model, as ST mentioned was removed until we can refine it.

- We plan to further improve some weapons textures and bug fixes....expect an update in 2-3 weeks.

Enjoy them!

This addon is awesome. We've been playing it all day on blackdog's server and have yet to find anything bad about it. JOIN US!

Thanks for feedback on missions too folks, is appreciated.

Two points i saw in this thread:

Avon, i just checked the sqm of Ranger Raiders, no DKM mod entry...but.. there is a conflict in there somewhere. When i had DKM addon installed, it would sneak itself into mission .sqms somehow, but in last few days i had only the MH6 and delta pack installed to avoid those confilcts on final export on missions.

Fallen Paladin, MH6 mission will be updated when MH6 pack is im thinking. And re slow Desert ranger intro, that was worked on right up till near release, it used to be even slower

Maybe someone will make a joint forces mission - with the Deltas and ADF spec ops team working together!

Oh well, I can dream Anyway, can't wait to get home and download this addon.

Absolutely sensational....:0

The units and weapons are excellent - the woodland camo is particularly good, a step above any previous camo...

Great work guys, keep it coming

one small thing though on the M240B The links are ejected to the right and the casings fall from the bottom. Its just something i noticed while playing

[PitViper 0]

um.. where are the missions that come with it? I can't seem to find them

[Starsky 0]

Thanx for a brilliant addon, guys!

One minor glitch though:

The "DES Ranger (S) Operator GL" is equipped with an

"BAS_M4desREFLEXS ".

...shouldn't it be:

"BAS_M4desREFLEXSM203".

I think they are pretty good. They seem to be a bit harder to kill than ordinary troops, I don't know if that is because they are beefed up toughness or if I was just kneecapping the guy though. I like the textures and weapons too. Sorry if my praise seems a bit feint but I really don't like special forces missions, so they aren't much use to me.

Any chance of whipping up a bunch of good old fashioned overweight, undertrained, poorly educated reservists in the near future? Seems in terms of game balance on one hand we have the East, lots of mint regular infantry and the best tanks, and on the West we have piles of mint elite troops and some really nice helicopters. To redress the balance need some top drawer Spetnatz and a helicopter for the East and some chunky weekend warriors and a battle taxi for the West.

one thing i wish you guys would fix is the healing shit, when i get shot while running i STOP and heal myself automatically, this is really anoying when the guy who is shot you ISNT DEAD and kills you while you automaticly heal, and at times when i DO get shot and i WANT to heal... i cant. please fix this. this is the only drawback i see from your units.

Were you play as a medic or do all the soldiers auto heal?

I was wondering about the SOCOM. Thanks for answering ahead of me asking.

Anyway, I have a couple questions. First, will there be a second release of the pack? If so, will the SOCOM + NV SWS be added? Also, could you guys *consider* doing some rangers/deltas in the old chocolate chip pattern, with M16A2's? If you guys do that I'll have almost eveything for the ultimate Mog battle. Another thing is that on the desert units, their uniforms seem kind of light. I assume they're wearing the new 3-color desert BDU, so it seems odd that you can't see the green at all.

(maybe the green fades?)

these are new, so I don't know

finally, what's new with the KLR250 (?) i don't see any changes

[Tigershark 0]

You weren't healing yourself....another Delta had asked you to heal and you were healing him.

All Deltas have healing capability as they are all highly trained in field medicine. Rangers only have a single medic.

Sorry if it inconveniences you but we felt this was a good addition that set the Deltas apart. I doubt this will be addressed in future patches.

Really well done guys...just awesome.

No complaints or nitpicks here(someone else can do that)

after about twenty washings BDUs and DCUs fade just like regualar clothes when they fade alot we call them cooked whites

KLR....textures changed..thats about it...previous was OD. But more importantly...ST moved it across as BAS project which means it will be supported an updated by an entire team if there are any issues...improvements..etc. Big plus is continued support.

Yes..the upgrade pack will contain new weapons, possibly units and fixes. The SOCOM will definitely be in it...it only narrowly missed this release...as well as upgraded textures for some weapons. We'll discuss internally what to do with the SWS NV model.

The 3 colur BDUs are a big issue...in the end we decided to go with what best simulates camo in game. The colors may not match exactly real life colors but they are modeled off the real thing and then modified to provide the best camo scheme in game. I doubt we will be changing them. Also the colors will appear differently depending on video cards and hardware factors.

well you dont know your addon then, because my freind noticed it and i noticed it aswell, he was being shot at by a bmp on the SacredGround map, he stoped and started to heal himself and the bmp killed him, and i i was far away watching this through my scope of the m24. no other soldiers were near him. and in the DeltaForce map near the airfield i was running trying to get to the office and got shot, stoped to heal myself and got killed.

edit: ill get a screenshot of it next time.

Great addon! I have already replaced all the SEB Deltas with the new BAS Deltas in all of my missions. Keep up the good work.
