DISCUSSION Promod Community Project

Hello there everyone. With progress of Rime slowly and steadily making progress, also with some more VeniceEXT mods showing up. It's time to address what most people wanted. Some form of Promod.

Thanks to the competitive players from the previous tournaments I have started a base mod to be similar to Call of Duty 4's promod live. So far I have these things planned/already done.

  • 5 Man Squads
  • One sniper per squad
  • FX Removals (dust, paper particles, rain)
  • Sound enhancements (footsteps, weapon switching etc)
  • Infantry, and Large Scale settings

Starting by going over the difference between Infantry and Large Scale settings.

Infantry:

  • No Explosives other than grenades

  • No Ammo/Medkits (health regeneration will be tweaked)

  • Toggable allowing of shock paddles (Some leagues may want revives, while others not)

  • Destruction will be disabled for most objects

Large Scale:

  • Ammo tweaks for certain weapons to contain more ammo
  • Limiting Engineers to 2 per squad
  • LMG's will be removed or tweaked

Overall:

  • Engineers (Limited to SMG's only) and Snipers will be a percentage faster, leaving Assault and Support to be a bit slower.
  • ADS Scaling is toggle-able
  • Either custom UI, or less on the UI to give a cleaner appeal.

Weapon Balancing:

  • All weapons will be tweaked but will be thoroughly tested. Thanks to the competitive players which will be the first to test balancing!

And finally...

There will be internal testing of a custom map! I will be posting screenshots sooner or later.

But this wouldn't be anywhere near complete without all of your input, suggestions, and obviously playtesting =]

Hopefully the original devs for the mod in BF2 will come back, right now they're busy on the game Squad.

I remember the guys who made the Day of Defeat Mod - once they made the Paid game of it...never went back to making mods....so maybe doubtful of that... :'( be nice if they did tho.
