Thank you Sir Rhino for blessing us with this map. May I ask when we can enjoy it again?

Argentinian land isn't really that close in reality to the Islands perhaps it's like 2 times that distance. Do Argentinian jets take off from that part of the map in PR?

In real life, its all much, much large, with the islands having an area of 12,200 km^2, but the ratio between the islands and the mainland is more or less correct, just in a much smaller scale.


And yes, the Argentine jets fly from the mainland, although they do have an A-1H (Pucura place holder) that is stationed on Pebble Island.

something general on player density, do you guys actually use some kind of metrics/rule of thumb on what player density is required for pr gameplay and how to acheive it via map/mission design?
Or is that just soemthing you deal with by trial and error and experience?

Back in 0.98 the Atlantic Conveyor had laser targets sticked onto it so that aircraft with the Exocet missile could lock on to destroy it, since the BF2 engine only allows for laser targets and heat targets, and the Exocet is a Radar Guided Missile, Rhino had to put laser targets on the ship and pretend it's a radar signature of some sort that aircraft can lock to, I believe that the new ships will also have such targets to allow the use of Exocet missiles from the Argentinians, so no lasing from the ground units, in fact, I believe officers and spotters won't even have anything capable to lase with, since back in 0.98 people would keep lasing targets for exocets but they only caused damage on the ship, being useless for ground strike.

btw exocets should only work during the first 20 minutes until thatcher collected enough intel from the french to disable them

Wait, we will have proper naval combat? o.o
