A new hot and sticky Vietnam mod, Eve of Destruction, just released. Some info on it here if you haven't heard of it:

I'll put something in the sparkling new Files forum to see if they can get it on the FTP

uploading to the bwftp...will post again once its finished & moved to a more suitable location for DL.

Had a quick blast on each custom map on meh own.....
the maps are sweet, very atmospheric, dense etc.

 

[CptDoom]

Its pretty damn good

It seeme the jets fly a lot slower, maybe just me.

Word of warning, if you like seeing who shot you in a game do not subscribe...

i think game.net should put up "Eve Of Destruction" server hosting it would be alot better because it is very popular

helecopter handling in this mod is shit, if they give it the same handling as DC then it will be a serious contender.

The maps are good on it but it still needs to have some serious work done on it, most of the trucks, planes and copters dont have sound when using it in first person mode.

nah..its just very different from DC..
rocket jockeys need not apply

its starts to hover as soon as u board it, and u need to keep throttle down whilst on the ground to keep it stable

I like to alot better than DC.

EOD has alot better ground fights, and the maps are super, its very rare you spawn and get blown up a second later by a chopper spawn camping you're base.

 

[Clowneh!]

probably cuz they cant fly them

 

[The Kingpin]

Naw, Choppers ernt to hard to take down.

A Support class, can take a chopper down, and flak eats it alive.

Well, i just enjoy EOD alot more than DC, becuase Infantry can be fun to play.

Bit annoying how one bazooka makes the chopper explode like it was filled with TNT. Way too cheesy, I think they ought to find a way to give it a death script where it spins around a bit with smoke pouring out its ass before it crashes giving people a chance to jump out.

Doubt it's possible with BF though :/

 

[The Kingpin]

Wel am rather sure in 1960's a bazooka rocket would blow up a chopper

I see the 11% demo is out with a 12% patch...

I like the fact there are no name tags for this mod, this for me makes the game even more enjoyable because you have to look before you shoot and it isn't so plainly obvious where the enemy is . Now people can conceal themselves without their names giving away their location, thus allowing for that extra bit of realism, and making people use stealth instead of blindly running around shooting the people whos names glowed a different colour to theirs.

Admittedly on a shit server you get the idiots running around shooting everything that moves, but on a decent well admined server you have to use your brain and work out where the enemy is shooting you from.

this mod is well decent, i prefer it to DC, maybe because it is fresh, or because i find it more fun to play.
its good that you can do well in all the clases, and as previously stated the maps are well designed. i would really like to see this mod as an option for server hosting!

 

[The Kingpin]

Good news, as the new DC fix is out wednesday, ment to be about 300mb, lots of new goodys in.
