The Project Reality team would like to announce the release of an official retro map pack! This map pack brings back 21 maps that were part of Project Reality in the last 11 years.
Featuring both Advance And Secure as the primary gamemode and Co-Operative gamemode for our Co-Op community, these maps are updated with latest assets and gameplay in mind. Get ready to see more of the Dutch faction and new adversaries such as MEC vs. RF!


This is an official map pack so servers will be allowed to host these maps without a password.

As part of the release, Hardcore Gaming will be hosting the map pack on their server this New Year's weekend! Many thanks for their support.

We'd like to thank authors over at...

This small update provides additional fixes and changes to improve the game since the PR:BF2 v1.4 launch. We also started working on new features and content for the future and due to changes in our workflow you'll see many smaller items released on a more regular schedule, exciting times ahead!

BASED is very pleased to announce the hosting of once another War of the Factions.

This fierce battle between 2 completely different factions will take place on the 18th of December 2016 and will be hosted on BASED EU and organised by 2 experienced commanders: @FFG and @Wicca

But first, a short introduction or dusting off to the concept of what War of the Factions is. Incase you didnt experience the last one.

War of the Factions is what exactly?

War of the Factions was originally founded back in 2014 as a project made and thought of by @Wicca (who you may vaguely remember ). As a PR vet that had been playing for over a decade he thought of a concept where every battle can be fought completely...

This patch includes some more fixes for the major v1.4 release as well some other balances and tweaks.

How does a commander in WOTF work?

Every team is assigned a commander who will chose his faction and then purchase his assets. These are then placed on the map by our scripters. Every team gets 1200 tickets to spend on assets. The price completely depends on what kind of vehicle it is.

The number of tickets that remain after the vehicles are purchased will be the ticket count that the team respective starts with. Only the commanders are selected by BASED, the squad leaders and grunts will be selected by sign ups, squad leaders and commanders. The teams will ultimately be structured and organised by the commanders.

There will only be taken one applicant, as how it works is that the winning commander of last WOTF will be asked to Command in the next one, so there is a little bit of competing.

Commander applications will be open untill Sunday. With the battle likely being on the 17th of December if nothing gets in the way.
If you want more details that you didn't get from this post. Feel free to send me a PM with any questions you may have.

On that note, If you wish to help organise WOTF we do accept help. Main thing needed are mappers and coders. Shoot me a PM if you are interested in helping out.

IMPORTANT! v1.4.1 is a update that has to be manually applied. Read announcement here.

v1.4.2 will be automatically installed using the automated updater as soon as you press 'PLAY'.

First of all, we hope v1.4 has been a fun to play update for our community, we as a team are very happy with what we accomplished in v1.4 and hope you are all enjoying it.

Project Reality:BF2 v1.4.1 and v1.4.2
We've prepared 2 hotfix patches to address some launch-day issues players and servers have been encountering. Since some of corrected issues pertain to the PR Launcher, which can't be applied through the automatic updater, the first patch v1.4.1 must be manually downloaded and installed. We have a issue with the updater so we can't use it to apply the patch. We will also be including a full standalone installer for 1.4.1 for new and returning players; refer to the Downloads and Installation section for further instructions.

Bear in mind that the 1.4.0 Launcher will NOT directly push this update to your system, so please alert any friends and fellow PR players and direct them to this page to receive the update.

The remaining bugfixes are in another patch v1.4.2 which can be downloaded through the launcher after v1.4.1 is installed.

v1.4.1.0 Changelog
This is the manual update Patch.

• Fixed frequent CTD regarding graphic setting verification.
• Fixed automated updater not working.

v1.4.2.0 Changelog

• Fixed admin command !switch not working on dead players.
