dracul72 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Very nice mission, it was a pleasure to play! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyboy 3797 Posted January 26, 2007 Excellent mission sir! Best I've played yet. Better than any campaign missions I've played (I'm about halfway through now, but losing interest in the campaign). Highlights: 1. Excellent mission intro using the dynamic map to brief the player visually. 2. Good location where ARMA ai seems to excel (i.e., the AI doesn't do as well in the big cities). 3. During the counterattack the BRDM moves in and out, making him very unpredictable. 4. Just the right amount of challenge. Took me about 4 hours plus a few saves to beat it. Multiple times I had to retreat into courtyards, solo, low on ammo, with the AI constantly moving into flank me. Intense! Small problems, in case you want feedback: 1. The M113 that comes into support defending against counterattack kept getting stuck on building walls. About 9 out of 10 times. Probably nothing you can do about that since its the same old lame AI driving like ofp... 2. I beat the mission, but the last objective for the counterattack was not checked off. But this may have been my fault, because I held back in the area where the original BMP objectives were, rather moving up to where the defend waypoint was. Excellent work.

NoRailgunner 0 Posted January 27, 2007 Nice little one! I would change placing of these two SLA Soldiers near this UAZ to the hilltop (and make them look around!. All of the group survived the little fight in the village. But then.... 2 Urals full of troops an one BRDM. I think the BRDM moves to fast in front his comrades Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyboy 3797 Posted January 27, 2007 Berghoff, How did you create your mission still picture? I have been unable to create a PAA file that works for ARMA missions, and have seen posts by others having the same problem. Edit: Never mind, I have it working now. I had the wrong image file name in my Overview html. Texview works fine for converting JPGs to PAAs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berghoff 11 Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks for all report, i will improve mission next time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redface 1 Posted February 2, 2007 cool mission especially the setting (Everon) is a nice way to discover new aspects in ArmA finally I got the feeling that I could compete with the enemy AI. In the village, I can hide behind walls, in barns one of the most advanced user missions for ArmA so far, with full-blown intro with dynamic map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
derfalpha 0 Posted March 6, 2007 Very good mission. Good build up. My team minus one got massacred getting into the village, but as soon as I got in, i tore the place up. Really fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phillyjoe 0 Posted March 7, 2007 hi both both of the links contain the file extension .rar all the other missions ive dowloaded contain the extension .pbo .where do i have to copy this file to? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denz 0 Posted March 7, 2007 The rar extension is because it's a compressed file Get winrar from one of these Once you've opened the file extract the mission pbo to your ArmA/Missions Directory then click on missions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kutya 0 Posted March 7, 2007 The best mission for AA that I played. Good work Only that I would reduce the counter-attack strength a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blanco 0 Posted March 9, 2007 Nice little mission indeed. I simply followed the instructions of my team leader(s) and I did well. Finished it in 20min but it was cool, city fights are fun in Arma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
