G'day all.
I was wondering what everyone's favourite climate for missions is. Jungle, Desert, Forrest, Snow, and why?
Personally, I love the look of the desert and the jungle, but it's the desert is so sparse that it doesn't offer enough cover, and the jungle's are so bloody dense.

I have recently fallen in love with making night missions in Winter Nogojev. Sneaking quietly through the snow...lining up on a T-80 with my Carl Gustav...the missile flies through the night...explosions...panic and alarms...sweeeeeeeeet!
-
Jungle warfare is really amazing though, especially when your playing a night mission at 1:30 in the morning ;D. People just seem to materialize in front of you. I'm currently making a mission with the SEB Nam Pack with lots of jungle fighting (No, really ::)), and the night section is intense. I love playing the prototype mission: Lots of explosions, radio and action controlled artillery spotting, lots of hidden Vietcommies >:(.
-
Hmm, I like locations that resemble places like Columbia. Just like depicting the war against drugs.
-
Or as the Everon Cartel likes to depict it, the war on the war against drugs ;)
My favorite climate for an OFP mission would have to be a toss-up between Winter/Snow and Urban though.
Snow is just good cause I live in the Desert already, and when it's September and still nearly 100 degrees outside, its nice to turn down the thermostat and play a nice snow mission...
Plus you have to love the falling snow... the crunch of your footsteps...
and you can even have the Northern lights in the sky.... how can you beat that...
Urban is a close second though, yeah yeah... i'm not talking neccesarily about fighting inside buildings as we all know the limitations to that.. but just street fighting is fun to me.
:cheers:

I like the jungle best. There's something very peaceful to me about fog, and fog looks good with the jungle. Not to mention the interesting noises.
-
i like both jungle and desert desert is a challenge because you cant hide and have very little to run to for cover.....so dont miss
-
Well, get ready for jungle fighting, cuz there's two awe-inspiring jungle islands coming out. You've prolly heard of Nagual's, but have u seen the new high-res Ia Drang by ThruYerStErNuM? It's due out on September 17 ;D ;D ;D HOOOAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D
Here it is:

I like the standard climate. The one BIS has on all islands.
-
i like jungle.....
but then again i like woodland best, reminds me of my camping days :D but if its got some urban combat in it (which although ofp isnt best suited for it does the job) i dont really care what climate lol
-
Depends what kind of mission really.
For sniper missions - Lots of vegetation
But, if I'm making a mission, I ALWAYS seem to have it raining, with heaps of fog, early in the morning.
I seem to be fixated with horror/scary atmospheres when making mission. haha ;D
-
fog and rain, complete daylight with mist coming up from the ground.
-
I like to have missions in the evening or just after sunrise. I like the orange light... very pretty. And I like the default climate... set it to December and there's only about 20 minutes of full daylight ::) .
-
my favourite climate is well......the new trinity island ;D
set the time at six pm and set the fog thingy to 6 full ones from the left it looks like a misty morning
-
Tonal! Tonal! Tonal! TOOONNNAAAAAAAAAAL!!!!!!!!!!!
-

Tonal! Tonal! Tonal! TOOONNNAAAAAAAAAAL!!!!!!!!!!! Tonal! Tonal! Tonal! TOOONNNAAAAAAAAAAL!!!!!!!!!!! Tonal! Tonal! Tonal! TOOONNNAAAAAAAAAAL!!!!!!!!!!! omg i pissed myself- i have a new one- dense jungles!
Tanks! 8)

I kinda like Jungle, tonal, with loads of fog...
-
Well i loved the atmosphere the game built up around the cold war and all.
The old islands where good but my favourite is nogova because it has a decent mix of it all, forest fighting in the north and desert combat in the south west and some modern like urban areas for us who love to run zig zag between houses and taking cover behind cars while being fired upon :D
but i think the smaller islands in the south are pretty interesting too. 8)

Tonal is especially fun when you play it on a ridiculously over spec computer. I was fighting a medium-sized jungle battle with no lag, my standard graphics, and a 1750 meter view distance (I forgot to lower it before entering the jungle :P ).
-
I prefer the fog, that way Everyone can play without lag...
-
Urban is great
-
Arctic, gotta be arctic. I did my military service in northern Sweden, y'see...
