Mission "1-10 No Mans Land" by Laggy.

Public 0.999 Beta version, should be final.

Unless some bug shows up or serious improvement suggestions, I concider this mission being ready for review.

Description: During a status quo situation your mission is to infiltrate no mans land in Corazol, save a POW and steal some important intel files. As support you have a RAC armored infantry squad and the option to call in artillery.

ArmA version: 1.14

Needed Addons: None.

Known bugs: None.

NOTE: This mission has been tested several times in MP, but feedback would really be appreciated since it might need some improvements.

JIP not concidered in editing.

Thanks to: All of you at the OFPEC forum.

Credits: Hoz for serious feedback.


Important changes in:

Version 0.999

Objectives fail if all are killed.

Version 0.99

Fixed mission file name and added version number.
Minor stuff that no one will probably notice.

Version 0.95

-Added Kegetys Spectating script.
-Wider weapon selection in briefing.
-OPFOR guards in no mans land now fire flares if the situation calls for it.
-OPFOR helicopter addition might make your life a little bit harder.
-Civilians SHOULD no longer wander around in no mans land.
-Third objective "fall back" added.
-Typo stuff.
-Starting position.
-Markers.

Missiontype: Multiplayer COOP, but SP is possible.
Players: 1-10
Mission Time: Around 30 min
Island: Sahrani
Mission Version: 0.999 Beta, should be final
Intro: Yes (short in the beginning of the mission)
Parameters: Yes (Intro and Daytime)
Time: Varies
Weather: Varies

Missionwork: I wanted to create an intense, actionpacked mission with a lot of choice regarding player tactics. The mission is quite free, which should make it fun to re-play lots of times. If you don't work as a team, your chances are small. You'll experience atmosphere, intense action, custom sounds, custom scripts, re-playability, and variation.

Hope you enjoy it. My wish is that I've created a fun mission.

Great, we'll give it a go over the next couple of days.

edit:

I gave this one a quick go last night just by myself. This is just a quick report, I expect we'll be playing with a few more players this evening.

The intro is pretty good. Its building up a bit suspense as you begin. In the beginning intro you have a typo noone and it should be no one.

The weaponspool contains a small selection of weapons and you provide fully loaded ammo boxes as soon as you begin. Probably best to fill up the weapons selection since most players will get loaded up there any how.

Had a tough time getting into the compound with the tanks roaming around by myself. So far its off to a great start.

I attached a pic of the beginning of the mission you can see my comrades are stuck, running into each other... until we get moving then they fan out. Perhaps they are placed a bit close to one another

edit:

Tonight we played with 3 players had a real tough time getting past the first checkpoint. The tank and BMP seem to get all buggered up moving around that first valley. Also the UAZ with the machine gun seems to spend most of its time stuck at the barb wire often dead right away. We gave up after 3 tries, not because we didn't like it but we were just running low on time. Hope to play it more over the weekend.

Briefing

Could use a pic. The objectives are pretty low on the list if you want to add a third or a hidden objective it will bleed out on to page 2.

Mission
The starting position seemed a bit weird. The first couple of times we played we went north to the closest CP. We should of actually went east according to the instructions. You may want to move the starting point just south at the t in the road and starting under the bridge really confuses you hehe. Perhaps turning the vehicles pointing the other way would make more sense.

We killed the pow and got the message mission failed however the mission didn't end.

After a few run through we thought it was pretty good. But we still haven't beat it yet.

When playing with dawn. The ai all have their NV on even when its pretty daylight.

Noticed all players have the radio. Is this intended that all units can call in support? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to just have the leader with the calls?

Played it 5 or 6 times and could only get near the hotel with 2 players. Its pretty tough.

Best thing I think you could add is the spectating.

laggy:
Much obliged for your comments Hoz,

Same question as in 1-5 One Shot One Kill... Is it too hard?

Did you try "blowing" yourself through the fences with satchel charges?

Starting point and "packed" formation will be changed to make more sense.

My opinion (which might differ from others) is that I generally don't like when missions end if you fail the mission. In real life you would still have to make it back home. I can change it to just a hint or something saying POW killed but no mission failed.

Regarding the radio commands I think it's a good idea to have it available for everyone. Leading AI in this intense mission demands a lot of attention. With the current solution someone else can be responsible for the calling of artillery and RACs. You are after all Special Forces, not grunts.

The NV goggles + dawn thing will be looked into.

Spectating script will also be added.

All this in next release, Thanks again,

Laggy

I agree also with this. Perhaps both objectives should be marked incomplete and a new objective to evacuate.
We did blow a hole in the fence. we did quite well when we both stole some uaz's. The east doesn't seem to want to target you sometimes when you take off on on of thier jeeps. One thing that did happen was thier were some civies picking up guns from east soldiers and shooting us. I think this is becuase of some addon we had running.

I don't think this is mission is too hard after a few attempts and as long as you stick to the path (east first then head west again) if you head north from the starting position its nearly impossible.  :whistle:
