The_Watcher 0 Posted August 6, 2003 Since JAM is holding up the MH-60, will you still be releasing a public beta version? Or has this time for fine-tuning allowed you to iron out the bugs and made you able to release a completed version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigershark_BAS 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Guys...guys....guys....I know this thread is for questions...but let's focus on one thing at a time ok. At the moment we aren't thinking much past MH-60, JAM, Upgraded De/Ra's and SEAL Team 8. The Littlebirds are going to be given a significant overhaul. There are scripts to be added, texture tweaks to be done and perhaps a new variant being added........despite this...we really haven't sat down and discussed the design yet...just played with ideas. Based on the reaction to the MH-60s (miniguns, fuel tanks, scripts) we will make some decisions on what the upgraded LB pack will contain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shinRaiden 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Cool. Thank you. Way too much light in the screenshots, ideally the only thing 'they' should see is the instant replay from 'upstairs', after the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Take your time, I can't wait for JAM actually, call me crazy but after hearing about it I am a little more excited about JAM then the MH-60's. *Two men in white coats strap a straight jacket on AOCBravo2004 and haul him away* George Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cloney 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Why do you guys think about the release dates so much? It's a bit too much like masturbation without the pay off. Oh and, JAM rocks. You guys will love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cloney: I am not sure if I was one person you were referring to, but actually I don't think about addons that much, sure I check the OPF news everyday but that is while I am taking a break from my other duties, most importantly college and waiting to receive my officers commission in the US Marine Corps(if I don't injure myself again). Plus a whole host of other stuff. If it was not directed at me, sorry, I am not upset, just clearing something up. Sorry Forum Mods for not taking it to PM. PS I know I'll love JAM, especially since so many good people and groups are collaborating on it. Yeah, I do see it as one of the most important developments in the Flashpoint community, can't wait for it, will probably integrate it into Inquisitors HD Weps Pack for the people that like that addon.

Eviscerator 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Thanks for the quick response Evis, what I meant was what type of gear they would wear:Quote[/b] ] (SOAR with visor, SOAR with NVGs, SOAR with Face Mask?) But I bet that one is a "wait and see"... Well, you asked what versions there were, and i have mentioned every version included, take a look at the screenshots and make of that what you will....

Sxep 0 Posted August 7, 2003 WOW it looks great! THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY MUCH for the screen! as it is against your politics  ..sorry for this.... Can the fueltanks be removed my setobject? Or better is there a version without it? (sorry if i personly asked this question befor) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pang 0 Posted August 7, 2003 i think the mh60l version does neither have the fueltanks, nor the refuelling prope, from what i remember... so plan ur mission like this: use the mh60K for stories like beeing inserted from far away (i.e. us to columbia) and the mh60L for island based raids/ insertions.

Shashman 0 Posted August 7, 2003 A little offtopic perhaps but I just thought I'd recommend this great book I just bought : Chariots of the Damned-Helicopter Special Operations from Vietnam to Kosovo By Mike Ryan and Major Mike McKinney  Have any of you BAS guys heard of it or read it? If so I very strongly reccommend it you won't regret it. Beautiful action paintings and very detailed accounts of the Koh Tang island Marine led USAF HH-53 landings in 1975, the disaster that was Desert One to the rescue of Scott O'Grady behind enemy lines in Bosnia in 1995.

Sweet_pup 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Okay Evis, here is what I see, from what has been released... 160th SOAR Pilots/Crewchiefs (Desert) 160th SOAR Pilots/Crewchiefs (Woodland) 160th Group shot Assault Force Little Bird Crew Those are all the pics I could find of the 160th SOAR troops. Looks like they will have the kick ass fold-down NVGs, flip down face visors, and oxygen masks (That would be my guess) and knowing what BAS has done in the past, that is proabably just the beginning...
