USS Iowa I see some hostile takeovers in our future. I'm going to download tonight and see if I can make it work. I don't know how complete it is, as in internal corridors and such, but it would be sweet to stage a raid operation to sweep and capture the ship then use it to demolish a land target.
That should give me plenty of time to relearn how to do everything. I know there's probably a bunch of updates on mods plus trying to remember how to set up missions.
First look is pretty ehhhhhh, it needs a lot of finishing work. There's no interior but the deck area is huge. I couldn't find a way to get on the deck from the water, it only gave the option to enter as driver or gunner so there would have to be an open slot in order to board. You can land a helicopter on the aft deck and insert that way. I'll keep an eye on this and as it becomes more fleshed out we can revisit the idea. In the meantime I'm going to look into other large ship options as well to see if there's anything we can do some boarding ops against. I've already found out the engine does not support walking on ships while they are moving so that might be a concern to have to work around. There are a few other combat ships, a trawler and an aircraft carrier that have been built so I'll give them a go as well.
Aircraft carrier shows some promise. It does have some interior spaces to clear including the huge hangar under the deck with working elevators. I'll see if it's possible to build up some cover inside and try to make it less wide open. Still no water ingress but more options for aerial insertion, maybe even HALO drop.
Raptors. Raptors are a game changer. Those things will fucking KILL YOU. The AI is actually pretty good, especially when you put 3-5 in a pack working together. Time to build a hunting map. But who's the hunter, and who's being hunted?
Yep. Plus I found a new map to try out that seems like it will be perfect. Our own sort of Isla Nublar.
/sigh I was hoping I could wait until black friday or cyber monday to put the new DasServer together. But I don't think I'm capable of that kind of patience now.
Wait for the dealz dude. I've got some stuff on this one I want to try out before I release it to the Borg as a whole and it's going to take me some time to get it built. There are some things that I'll need to request help on when I get to them if you don't mind.
