Now that the Emplacements milestone has been hit, we are concentrating all our efforts to bring Vehicles into the following version (V7) of the Alpha. Just to recap the vehicles that are production ready are as pictured below, the US Army Humvee; US Army M939 Truck, Insurgent Technical; Russian BTR-80 configured with a 14.5mm KPVT turret and finally the Ural 375D truck used by Russian and Militia forces. Our current plan involves preparing the above vehicles for upcoming major Alpha updates.

With this announcement, BASED is planning to revive the WW2 extension for Project Reality.
It will be hosted once a month.

Servers:
The event will be hosted on one server. We will start with BASED EU and then we will alternate between BASED NA and BASED EU every month.
Server will be online from Saturday 21st to Sunday 22nd. On the EU server.

Installation:
If you have lost your installation of PR:WW2, don't worry you can download it from here:
BASED EU: http://eu.alwaysbased.com/pr_ww2_0.2.0.0_full.iso (Western Europe)

You can find the installation guide here.

Feedback:
As always we encourage you to supply the PR:WW2 devs with the needed feedback of the mod. You can give feedback to the devs from here.

Maps:
We will rotate between the following maps.

Another map update for v1.4; this time Wanda Shan received some much needed adjustments.

Firstly, to address the issue of rubber banding/server lag the forest areas now use Saaremaa cluster trees, reducing the total number of trees that need to be loaded from ~45 000 to below 20 000, bringing it in line with other forest-heavy maps. Hopefully this will greatly reduce the lag experienced on this map.

Secondly, an overall cosmetic update to the map has been made.


Gameplay has also been changed with new gamemode layers, flag layouts and asset loadouts.

After going through past feedback and with new tank armor changes in store for v1.4, AAS Standard layout has been changed to the rather mirrored but balanced asset loadout featuring ZSL-92 APC, Type 86 IFV, Z-9 light transport helicopter and Mi-17 medium transport helicopter on Chinese side while German...

Hi Squaddies,
April has come and gone, time to update you good people in the Squad-space about whats been happening behind the scenes! For those still unfamiliar with Squads Monthly Recaps, they are a way for the developers to bundle up the major developments that have happened throughout the month and show them off to YOU, the faithful Squaddie.

HEAPS of progress has been done on Weapon Emplacements over the past month. Building on the gigantic strides we made in networking with Netmove, the first of a larger system in emplacement deployables is nearly ready to go and we are aiming to release this in the next major version.


At the moment the final hurdle is bug-fixing and polish with the prototype M2A1 Browning HMG emplacement, but once the pipeline is established, we can iterate very quickly on this new feature and put out more emplacements suitable to the different factions. Another big plus from this is that a lot of the artistic and programming hurdles overcome in getting this system together are ones that we would also encounter when dealing with vehicles. Two birds one stone.

Hi guys,

First of all, I would like to announce that I'm officially part of the PR DEV team now! Really excited to keep working on new projects and help out the team.
So back to the actual blog, this new turret was issued to me for a brand new texture. However, we would still use the chassis of the vanilla T72 (less work) which still needed an update in texture aswell because of the ERA blocks on the T72B and to match the quality of the new turret.

It's not decided yet on which map the desert version will be used, but it is certain that you will see the woodland version on Assault on Grozny in the next update. I hope you like them! :grin:

BASED is very pleased to announce the hosting of BASED's first real event, an event that may sound familiar for a lot of players: War of the Factions.

This fierce battle between 2 completely different factions will take place on the 3rd of April 2016 and will be hosted on BASED EU and organised by 2 experienced commanders: @Fnixer and @Behr.

But first, a short introduction or dusting off to the concept of what War of the Factions is.

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 differently with different assets and factions together on the same map every time.

How does it 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...
