| Project Reality v0.5 Released! |
|
The award winning Project Reality and Black Sand Studios teams are proud to announce the official release of the highly anticipated Project Reality v0.5.
Coming just 90 days after the ModDB Mod of the Year "Silver Spanner" award winning Project Reality v0.4, the v0.5 release introduces some of the most radical and innovative game play changes ever seen in a Battlefield 2 mod. We have added an abundance of extra content (listed below), but in this release our main focus was altering how the game is played, even more so than our previous releases. The result has been a completely new gaming experience for both Project Reality veterans and Battlefield 2 recruits!
NEW FEATURES AND GAME MODES:
-Forward Spawn Points
The default Battlefield 2 spawn system has been completely overhauled and reconfigured so that you will now have to rely on your squad leaders, the newly added “Rally Points”, and APC’s for forward spawn points on the battlefield. You heard right, spawn points have gone mobile!
-Vehicle Damage System
Another major feature included in PRv0.5 is our revolutionary new Vehicle Damage System, which has been implemented on almost all vehicles currently available in PR. This new system affects vehicle mobility and/or operational status once they become damaged. If you are in a tank and take damage from an anti-tank round, you may loose the ability to rotate your main turret or one of your tracks may become damaged rendering you immobile. This new system is not limited to just ground forces, as aircraft (including helicopters) are just as vulnerable!
-Tank & Pilot Kits
Building on top of our "Kit Limiting" system in the v0.4 release, we have included a new "Pilot" and "Crewman" kit that must be requested and obtained before a player can pilot an aircraft or operate a tank. Don’t worry though, some vehicles, including light jeeps, are still operable by players without a specific kit.
-Destructible Environments
Included in this release is our first map with a fully destructible environment! All the buildings in Helmand Province can be destroyed with explosives, such as an RPG round or C4 charges. While this map is relatively small, we will expand on this concept in the future!
-Advance and Secure (AAS) v2
In this game mode, each team battles over a "group" of control points (flags) at any given time. A team must capture the entire group of control points before moving on to the next designated group of control points. A "group" of control points can have as little as one control point in them, or as many as 5. One should expect fierce battles erupting over those flags, with very concentrated action where you get both a lot of attack and defense!

NEW WEAPONS AND VEHICLES:
-Chinese QBZ Rifle Series
The Chinese forces have received a much needed upgrade and are now armed with the powerful QBZ-95 rifle series. There are two variants of the rifle, the QBZ-95 “Assault Rifle”, which has a 4x optical sight, and the QBZ-95 “Iron Sights” variant, which is the standard, non-scoped version of the rifle. The version equipped with a UGL will be seen in a future Project Reality release.
-USMC M-14 Marksman Rifle
After many requests from players, the US faction is now armed with the highly coveted M-14 Marksman Rifle. This gas-operated, 7.62mm rifle packs a powerful punch with amazing accuracy and is sure to make any Battlefield 2 sniper jump with joy.
-US AT4 (Anti-Tank)
The US faction has received yet another new weapon to its arsenal, the AT4 Anti-Tank system. This relatively small, but extremely powerful, anti-tank system has been used by the US military for years and now is included in the Project Reality mod as the USMC light AT weapon.
-British Merlin HC3 Transport Helicopter
We have continued building on our foundations of the British Armed Forces in the last release and have included the Merlin HC3 helicopter. This mammoth of an aircraft can transport up to 6 players and includes a fully functional rear loading ramp which is opened and closed by the co-pilot.
-British Land Rover
The British forces have finally been blessed with the addition of the Land Rover. This light jeep is armed with two 7.62 calibre GPMGs (General Purpose Machine Guns) and can carry up to 3 players.

All of these new game play changes combined with the addition of new vehicles, weapons, and maps, promise players the most realistic gaming experience available for the Battlefield 2 platform. The Project Reality Player Guide will be updated with change logs and other important content within the next 48 hours, so keep a close eye on the Project Reality website for more detailed information on v0.5’s features.
As always, the Project Reality Team would also like to thank all of the supporting Battlefield 2 mod websites, server providers, and of course our dedicated community for all of their hard work and continued support. In particular, we want to send a special thanks to our tester crew who did a fantastic job helping us sort out some very complex issues with this release. THANK YOU TESTERS! Without all of your combined efforts and contributions, Project Reality would not be where it is today!

| US Intervention Mod Update |
|
There is a new media update posted today over at the US Intervention mod website. Here's what they had to say:
Hello everyone, after a rather long radio silence, the USI PR transmitter is back on line. This week we bring to you one of the latest vehicles that has been added for the v0.15 release; the gaz69. It's a light off-road vehicle for the Iraqi side. It was modeled and coded in by Jarlief, skinned by Petemonster and SlayerDarkCross and it was wonderfully rendered by our fellow BSS dev, Ivan from OPK.
To learn more about the USI mod be sure to visit their site.

| Australian Forces 1.0 To Be Released January 26th 2007 |
|
Battlefield 2: Australian Forces 1.0 is set to be released on January 26th, 2007... Australia Day.
Battlefield 2: Australian Forces 0.3 has been officially renamed to version 1.0, a milestone which reflects the amount of time and effort our small team have put into this modification.
Consisting of a core team of only four developers for the majority of the last year and a half, we have dedicated hundreds, if not thousands of hours of our spare time into creating Australian Forces. We don't get paid to make mods, we give-up the free time we could be spending with family and friends, developing content until 2AM every night, working through public holidays... why? We don't do this for fame or fortune, we do this in the hope that others can get some enjoyment from playing the mod we have had so much fun developing. Undeniably it has been a very trying path to walk, but on January 26th we hope to get a chance to share the mod with the wider community. Once the mod is in your hands, it is up to the community to use it, or lose it.
January 26th, 2007 will be Australia's Day!

| BF2Deathmatch Mod Announced! |
|
The Sir. Community has announched a battlefield 2 deathmatch mod, This is what they say about it:
Have you grown sick of Conquest? Are there times where you just want to go and teamkill everyone in sight, but are hampered by the dangers of being kicked and banned? Or do you just yearn for the simplicity of a game mode where infantry tactics take a back seat to pure fast-paced carnage?
Developed with a unique scoring system, BF2Deathmatch features a free for all combat style of gameplay in which players can expirience intense close-combat firefights on their favourite BF2 maps. Karkand and Sharqi may be familiar to you now, but you will learn to appreciate every nook and cranny as you fight for frags.
The mod will be released soon so be prepared
