Hi!

I have this idea of a practice map which has all kind of firing ranges for tanks,heli-rockets,bombs,etc..

Unfortunately I'm way too lazy to learn how to mod,I did this a bit in BF1942,but that was just editing vehicles,no mapping.

But I still like the idea though,there could be those exploding barrels as targets so you get a hit confirmation and they just respawn every 3 seconds or something like that.

Anyways,who also likes this idea?Anyone here who occasionally mods a map?

Please discuss!

Not a bad idea to learn how to range targets and see your effective distances of rifles and whatnot.

I'm sure you'd get that with enough in game practice, but a mod for a firing range wouldn't be bad.

I agree. To have targets at set ranges 50m 75m 100m 200m 300m etc.

This would help people getting used to tank combat at range and also help people with firing infantry weapons as well as Grenade launchers and Grenade throwing.

It might be a little hard for a sniper to really get into range for their shots because the hit mark would be so far away you couldn't see if you really hit the target or not. What I did for fun once was on M.City at the Hill USMC flag point I went up the side hill road and aimed for the mailbox on the tree next to the bus stop at the flag. I would shoot then quickly get into the parked Vodnik next to me and race down there to see my mark before it disappeared. That's how I figured out the deviation on various sniper rifles from the standard default USMC to MEC and then the two unlocks. I have to say that the new L96 whatever sniper rifle was the most accurate from that test I did.

Anyways.. great idea. Would love to see something like this for newer player and even older player to brush up on skills.

Ill map that, no problem

That is when I have some spare time, should have been brought up last week, when I was on holidays

So far It will just be like a small field with some walls and xplosive barrels as targets

Not a bad idea at all. IMO I think that EA should have created something like this for us in single player so that we could practice stuff like bullet drop. Or have target practice in jets or choppers. A session where we could practice bombing. How we would go about aiming in the jet to get the most out of the bomb. I could go on and on. It would be a nice feature to have. I realize that we could practice in single player or empty servers but it's not the same per se.

I would love to see something like that. Maybe something with a target bot running at different distance and you need to shoot it with sniper.

Or a nice map where you can learn to fly. All kind of things you need to go over or under etc.

Good idea!

Just use the Map editors. It's a neat idea, good stationary sniper practise and whatnot. Go to www.Planetbattlefield.com/bf2 or you may find a map editor in our very own files section here, (I don't know because my computer dosn't download stuff.)
