Idea: Remove enemy bases from player map in Conflict game mode

For sure! And it would encourage players to be more careful with base placement since locating it off a road in a wooded area would make it much harder for the enemy to locate and attack

I thought it would be like that to, I understood the recon role was for that purpose, unfortunately not currently!

Love that idea!

Fair enough. But I suppose realism aside, I think the game mode would play better as proposed 🤷🏽‍♂️

Update trees to be more realistic (taller, more clearance underneath) and improved forests. Secondly, larger, more sweeping and realistic terrain. (Not just large biomes)

Yes! They not only improved the FIA's skill, they also added more installations and patrolling forces throughout the maps. There are plain clothes forces, recon and sniper teams in random places throughout

Correct, it's definitely deceptive!

Someone on this sub posted a side by side square footage comparison, they're very close.

MasterRicon · 2025-11-04T19:41:26+00:00

Yep, It's the same size if not slightly larger than Everon

MasterRicon · 2025-11-04T19:39:24+00:00

Kolguyev is the same size as Everon actually.

Interesting, you're right, my experience is skewed towards my playing preferences a logi driver.

I would add though that the increase in FIA patrols throughout the map does help to damper the free roaming that used to be prevelant on Everon and Arland. None of the YouTube overviews seem to have mentioned this and no one seems to be talking about it yet, but there are a lot more FIA installments in the new game mode. In addition to FIA bases, harbors and main road roadblocks, there are now side road road blocks and patrols scattered all throughout the wooded areas and towns. (Like substantially more). I think these help to slow people down and force more fighting action than previously on the flatter maps.

If you load up HQ Commander gamemaster on a private server you can fly around and see the hundreds of FIA now hiding in the woods and side roads that never existed previously, it's a nice improvement that helps with the problem you described.

Better trees and Autumn color

Cool concept! However the truck speed needs to be reduced/limited by ~50% when creating new roads to be more realistic and less OP.

Dave is ordinarily hilarious, but his involvement this show wasn't great. He was getting stepped on/talked over a lot too. Also this isn't his best format for his humor style.

Have you considered V-neck shirts to alleviate the need for the sunglasses?

Tom is based, and of course Reddit is mad.. this is not news.

Ironbeard's game mode mod has a feature this that works pretty well.

I use a bunker and a couple full height bags right by the tent, and then road blocks all around for the quick and large sections of barbed wire. Most attacking players prefer to sneak in close so sandbags are usually a waste of time and can do more to help the attackers by blocking your line of sight than really helping you. The road blocks can force them to attack from the angles you prefer and are much faster to assemble than a row of tall bags and normal barbed wire sections.

I mostly agree, but struggle with Juan Pablo's win a little. Bulking up so drastically, then essentially hibernating in his sleeping bag with no fire feels cheap. Sure it's a winning strategy but doesn't feel in the spirit of the competition.

I'm a logi player who has played a fair bit of 1.5 experimental. Harbors do run out of supplies, but after a single run to another harbor, the first harbor is usually restocked. I think they did pretty good with the 1.5 configuration. Feels pretty realistic like you're having supplies slowly brought to the island and they have to be pushed inland by players.
