BF2 mod: Desert Conflict released!!

Wolfman Jack · 29 Mar 2007 at 09:23

Well, after much waiting, the BF2 mod Desert Conflict is about to be released, going live on Friday.

For those not in the know, Dcon is the Desert Combat mod, but for the BF2 engine.

Desert Combat (DC) was the very best mod for BF1942, it was so good that DICE hired most of the team to work on BF2.

get ready for the sandstorm!!

Not done by Trauma though is it? Its very loooosely based on Desert Combat.

I heard Dice got rid of most of the Trauma team, I know they are making one standalone game (can't remember the name) which is BF stylee.

Agreed, FH2 will be superb if FH1 was anything to go by. Link

What's the point in this mod? The original DC was a mod of a World War 2 game to give it a modern setting. What's the point in giving a modern setting game a modern setting? You're only gunna be adding one or two largely different vehicles!

Its not a modern setting, its set at the time of the first gulf war, some 15 years or so ago.

There are some similarites in vehicles and weapons, but trust me, the mod is a whole lot better than BF2

Are you a part of the mod team by any chance?

Roll on 4pm i'm looking forward to trying this.

Firegod · 30 Mar 2007 at 10:32

DC rocked. This should be great! Actually DC is the only reason I still occasionally play BF1942.

I was a tester for a while m8

if they have kept the chopper physics then i will be a happy.

BF2 choppers are crap!!

Dc Helicopters were spot on, took a lot of effort to learn to fly them well, but once mastered they were ace

On a side note which patch do these bf2 mods use finding it hard to get the info
dont want to install patch 1.41 if the mods need 1.40.
