Haha, the timing is on purpose. It's meant to ensure that planning ahead in briefing also involves preparing for rapidly changing situation. Use one engineer to fast deploy a fan shaped mine layout close to the first building , let the AT guys sprint behind the other buildings and use remaining engineers to lay a backup close to starting point and let the situation evolve. About the logo thing; Not changing it right now but maybe with an update later with some more missions. Be safe til then :)

Yes indeed

I'll open up a thread so that this section is not spammed ;)

Yeah, I just did that. Check on the user missions section.

Hi troopers. Finally managed to fix that "mission failed" issue with a new scripting version. All missions are now updated. And as a bonus, threw in a new mission for winter kolgujev. Download from the first post. Br VanhA

I made some fixes for my missions this morning due to a "debriefing bug" caused by obsolete scripting version in each mission. Delivered to Raunhofer but please wait til he updates the link. (Inside a txt.file showing mission versions 1.01) Please notify if some other bugs exist since I had no opportunity to properly have a test playthrough.

Congratulations on the release. A long journey but worth the waiting. Also it was a pleasure to participate with some missions. Thank you for the opportunity!

Good work there! :cool:

I played it through 4 days ago. Good game. To me the best aspect of the game was that one could actually hide in a bush and not be seen. Still playing some online coop missions which are good fun as well.

I like to support local small breweries so therefore my choice is usually from this list: http://www.mallaskoski.fi/index.php/tuotteet/taysmallasoluet/ Especially the "amber" one is my favorite. It tastes like a mix of British ale & bitter

Having served in coastal artillery myself I can say that some modern cannons are impressively accurate but then it's also thanks to a well functioning fire control unit. I've also used the 88 flak which was awesome and easy to see why it was so effective against allied armor in ww2. About the dispersion I'm not sure since we did not use so many shells but we did sure sink the target ferries.

I played this with some friends and we all now suffer from a shellshock and demand compensation! ...just kidding... but it sure felt scary being bombarded at the outskirts of town. :) We liked the mission very much regardless of abandoning hope in completion of it , hehe. Very neat personal touches all around the mission core.

Well, despite of probably getting bashed I hereby testify this game is the most fun I've ever played. Honestly.. in the era where every war game seems to be degenerated into a scripted corridor shooter where you don't get to do much , the vastness and insanity of this gem is just so unique. I've been playing it coop with a friend of mine and it's a combination of laughing and shooting at the same time. http://www.borderlands2.com/ I recall when the first borderlands came I was very sceptical about the graphical choices taken by gearbox but it works so well and this sequel is just awesome looking. So, if you find yourself fed up with all the EA crap, just give this a whirl. VanhA

Now 25€ on steam!! Hurry up.

Last night I finished the Captain Scarlett DLC with a friend of mine. Loads to do and see. Really jaw dropping sceneries in there. In the main game and the dlc's it's usually the side missions which provide the best laughs. Then there's of course the weird guns like the sniper rifle I acquired some time ago. Sold it away because of better loot at the dlc finale but I named it the "jewish mom" since it kept nagging at me upon head shots and reloading. Anyways. Still plenty to go in the main game and a new dlc is already on the way so I'm glad I purchased the borderlands pass early.

Well, the landscape with tall grass and UPSMON results in enemy seeing you through bushes too often I guess so they were pretty hard. Main problem was the respawn acting funny and resulting us spawning in the middle of the enemy where we just died... and died again maybe 7 times before one of us got lucky and eliminated the enemy. :) The task issue is fine (updating the new ones) I just meant that the completion of the tasks went un-noticed. If you have them enabled in the same trigger where the new tasks are set it usually requires a small delay if you're using the taskmaster for example. Thank you for the missions.

Shame I only so far have this on PS3 but planning to add it on steam also later when I have more dosh..

Well, I just played two of these with 3 friends. The atmosphere was great, however as I'm used to having only none or limited lives the balance between friendly and foes seemed just overwhelming. Couple of of guys ended up just shooting chickens in their frustration. How about allowing more access into captured enemy vehicles/static weapons? Also the respawn system sometimes backfired thus throwing the units back where they died even if the leader was also available further away. The tasks dis not show complete (except on map view) so maybe also add that to avoid confusion when throwing in new tasks during the mission. And then there were some typos (no big issue but maybe check it out with someone else) Don't get me wrong, we liked them but it was no fun at this state. The mission ideas were good so keep doing more. Br VanhA

Hi. These are all missions that were originally made for ICON & JTF-2 teams as tailored missions. However after enjoying them for awhile I decided to share them also with the community. I have made some changes to mission names because they were named after the teams. Addon's required: Lingor v1.4 & Lingor units / BAF (optional) Armaholic link Download from my repository Missions created by: VanhA Mission Versions: 1.0 Release Date: 04 November 2012 Intro/Outro: no / yes Briefings: Full briefing, notes & tickable objectives Created for Combined Ops version: 1.62 Testing: Tested on dedicated server with 6 players. CREDITS & THANKS: ----------------- - BIS/BIA for their great simulators. - Icebreakr for Lingor - Norrin for revive and aerial taxi - R3F team for logistics - ICON & JTF-2 for test assistance - Shuko for taskmaster2 - taco3866521 for the hostage script - F2F Skynet for plane loadout - Monsada for UPSMON - Nielsen for IED Some things which are good to know: *In "Hits From a Bong" taking out the drug shipment is a small puzzle. You need to use the assets found in nearby because the security vans are hard to breach *In "Mad Hatter" it's best to avoid totally the cyborg units or otherwise use any AT weapons you have for maximum damage. *Most missions fail if all human players are out except "Welded Joint" as it's a big mission and was designed as a fun joint squad session. Br VanhA ps. If anyone else besides Variable is interested more in grp versions, get them from here.

Of course my friend. I'll do the changes tonight and send them to you via email.

Fun mission. Played it through once with 2 friends and no problems. However, now having gone through it on open server with approx 10 players it went well until we were approaching the last target. Then someone else joined in and we all were teleported to the scud site and blasted away.. one of us misfired his AT in all confusion resulting in bright white flash and Elvis.. :) Anyways, we had great fun but some odd JIP thing is glitching..maybe? (Of course it could have also been some hacker crap) Br VanhA

Eh? It is an ancient mission but it sure is for A2. Although you also need the Panthera island for it.
