Suggestions for our next Battlefield Vietnam event!

[IceSkater]

Hello everyone!

We'd like some fresh ideas for our next Battlefield Vietnam event. Please feel free to drop your suggestions in a response to this thread and users can vote on them individually.

Please note;
If you'd like to suggest the use of a Mods or Maps (that require additional download) please ensure they meet the following criteria:

1) The suggested modification or map(s) are readily available and easy to install for users.
2) The suggested modification or map(s) are intended for multiplayer and are not expected to cause any problems.
I request these two criteria to be met, because 95% of our modified events I was left helping players join and left scratching my head a lot. It was never fun for me - putting that straight on the table.

Additionally, if it is a modified event, it may be placed on our event server. As I always strictly stated, we give our players the choice to either play on a modified event server or play on our main server. If the suggested event contains SSM maps (these don't require additional download) then we can host it on our main server.


Thank you!

Hello IceStaker, I would like you to do an iron sights mod event, it is a mod where you have the iron sights of the original bf :v (in case you don't know how to download it, contact me and I will make a tutorial about it). have a nice day.

"Custom Maps Event" may be interesting

 

[paranoid]

I vote for SMM Maps. Maybe different weapons kits?

 

[LTShaun]

Dice City? I have 4 of the 6 maps working on multiplayer. SWAT vs Gangsters, custom vehicles, choppers, planes, boats, music... it could be fun??

Are any of Pips ssm maps available? If so, a modded event would be really cool.
Those close quarters combat mods, with knives and pistols were amazing!

Regrettably, no.

However @LTShaun 's suggestion of Dice City may in fact tease one's interest in a type of cops 'n robbers feel if you fancy it.

Modded maps on the main server would be a great time and easy for everyone to join. If additional modded maps have to be downloaded and played on a different server, historically (going back years now) it substantially cuts the potential players that would have played. In TKO, almost all our maps were modded to some extent (varying from minor quality of life changes to totally changed base maps) on the main server, and did not require anyone to download maps. I never got into modding myself, so I can't speak to the level of which the guys in the clan were modding the maps, but everyone could play them and it was usually the most active USA server 13-15 years ago.

Some of the amazing maps included an all tunnel Cedar Falls, City Only Fall of Saigon (no vehicles), Reclaiming Hue with a few choppers to get out of the main and added vehicles on most all maps, etc.

I want an Iceskating mod!

No, just kidding.

What about a mix of maps
Like one round Racing map, then one normal one and then one knifing one
Not so much Racing since it takes a long time or we just can wait till all have finished and then move to the next map.

For testing purposes I've installed the Linux version of the mod on my server and all 5 original maps from Dice City 0.98 seem to be working!!!

I miss Arsenal mod, I couldn't reinstall Freddy's files, something got screwed up, but I used to play on his co-op server

 

[IceSkater]

At the moment seems that @LTShaun 's suggestion is definitely going to be our month end event!

Stay tuned for all the details in an announcement soon!

Admins, Dice City was a relatively huge success. I suggest BFV BG42 Mod for next event. It's been a long time since the last event with that mod. It's summer so we could have an event every weekend or every two weekends if possible.

I’m down for POE somewhere in the rotation!

Or even EOD! Do you guys remember EOD? That was extremely fun. I can’t remember if it was for BFV or 1942

I love BFV PoE mod too and I am okay for PoE for next event too. But I don't want BFV Battlegroup-1942 (BG 42) Mod to be forgotten

I played it for the first time last year at an HELLO Battlegroup Redux event and it was amazing. This mod is a slight improvement from World War 2 and World War 2 Extended mods with new maps, weapons, vehicles, Ships, and aircraft.

WW2 and WW2X are legendary mods but BG-42 has it's own charm.

There is a dedicated server for PoE (Europe BFV Server) but there is no dedicated server for BG-42. So an event would reignite interest in that almost forgotten mod. We had a huge turnout for the BG42 event if I remember correctly.

somewhere in the rotation!

I like your idea of rotation. This takes the guess work out and allows all mods to be played and remembered

Do you guys remember EOD? That was extremely fun. I can’t remember if it was for BFV or 1942

EoD is a BFV mod. I don't think we ever had an event for EoD. I guess that should be reason enough for the next EoD event. I am in for any mod you guys pick. I have to admit that I have never played EoD mod yet but only heard great reviews about it.

 

[LTShaun]

EOD for BFV is quite good but most maps are massive. Lots of great aircraft and choppers added though as well as tanks, WW2X would be quite fun with 20+ as well. We already know the maps of 1942 but I find they are very enjoyable with the BFV engine it’s definitely an enhanced WW2 experience
