Zipper5 74 Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Hi Zipper, just finished Preemptive strike and have some feedback.First off It's Awesome and all triggers and OPFOR seemed to be working great. There is a perfect balance of enemy numbers on the map for a 3 man delta squad, I really had to weigh my options in thinking about each contact I came across, engaging only what 3 guys could tackle and being patient and waiting for the bigger contacts to leave or find a way around them. Here are some details on what mods, difficulty etc. you might find helpful; Mods: Zeus AI, custom sound mod, shacktac HUD, Copy my stance 4, CBA Difficulty: Extreme <image> The intro/outro were both very impressive, and the music during the mission was not distracting. The only suggestion i have is this At the last objective, the artillery guns were maybe a little two lightly guarded, I noticed a few patrols in the surrounding area but the artillery position itself just didn't look "natural" only having two guards if you catch my drift. Again this is just my opinion ;) All in all this looks like it going to be as good if not better than your previous campaign "Operation cobalt" and that is no small feat ;). Thanks mate and i look forward to the release. Hey Vicarious! Glad you liked it! I can only hope to maintain the quality for the rest of the campaign. :D In regards to your comment: Enemy presence in the mission is randomized. Sometimes all 3 targets will have guards, sometimes only one or two will, or sometimes none of them will. I guess you just so happened to get a randomized one where the 4-man patrol usually guarding the artillery is not there. ;) Edit: Here's another in-game promo for you guys from the campaign: Edited November 15, 2010 by Zipper5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Binkowski 26 Posted October 14, 2010 hi zipper5, i noticed your recent work with blood on the sand. i must say, it is not up to par with current bohemia interactive-ness. you must create a campaign about a band of mercenaries that go to an island and have some involvement with a queen. then, they are betrayed by people in the racs uniforms. you will have to make 4 new character addons, and add a shotgun that shoots very high explosive shells. once this is all done, you must put a price tag on this, and release it. remember, the campaign must be loaded with bugs. or it will not be popular. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stagler 39 Posted October 19, 2010 Itll be done when its done. Making stuff like campaigns takes time, and the quality of Zips work is always high so patience plays off because when it comes out, it will be better than most of the Bi campaigns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) Hey guys, got a bit of a surprise release today: Check the first post for details. Enjoy! ;) This was actually a project I started right after the BAF DLC was released, and was intended to be a 2-mission mini-campaign detailing the British assault on Shapur at the end of Crimson Lance. However, I never got around to finishing the rest of it, so I thought I might as well fix up the first mission and release it. Hope you guys like it.

CameronMcDonald 146 Posted October 30, 2010 The intro to this mission > most, if not all things currently out there. Give it voice acting, and it would be truly formidable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
