| Operation Husky - File Description |
|
Description:
A 4v4 map with crazy amounts of resources, and hidden goodies. This map is designed for multiplayer or singleplayer. The goal of this map is to try to recreate the operation husky battle. I tried my hardest to make it so both sides will be able to build up a big army as fast as the game will let them. I wanted to try to capture the feel storming the beach and trying to get inland. This is the first draft of this map, so I would love some feed back to make the final version perfect. Enjoy Have fun!
This is in response to all people that have had issues with Operation Husky:
-The bridge is the Germans last line of defence, just like any map with bridges. It is realistic that the bridge can be blown up. It makes up for it in the game that you can repair it, you may just have to send some groups of soldiers in through the north fishing town to distract them, don't just get mad about the bridge.
-The map isn't designed for the allies to just stroll inland and start taking stuff over, that is why all the allies gas and ammo are on the beach, as if supplied by the ships.
-Again, the tank traps and barbed wire are to keep the allies from storming inland right away, you must build up a force as fast as possible and then make a push together with your teammates, like a real war.
-As far as position of the points on the beach, the ships are sending gas and ammo to the beach so that's why they are so spread out, the Germans have a base that's why theirs are in one spot, I also gave them a little less up there.
I understand that this map has different game play, you must think of how this historic battle really happened, lots of death for the Americans, and alot of forces at one time are needed to make a dent, not like in other maps for this game where you can send little destructive parties around and take points, I do like the progressive pushes that the game allows you to do but I wanted to make this map as much like the original battle as the game would allow me to do. The things that people don't like about this map are not flaws, they are just different from most COH maps. Please re-think how this battle would really work, and try it again. Some of us can remember how it went in BF-1942 Road to Rome.
Have fun storming the castle!

I wanted to make the battle to have stages, first you must take the beach, then build up your force, then take the towns, then get into the german base and woop them!
Monkey Soldier,
I don't know about your issue, maybe you have a different version of WB? Check with others that have made 4v4 maps, or ask flackninja. |

Posts: 22 | Thier are 2 ways to get into the german base, if you look at the screenshot showing the whole map you will see a small footpath at the top of the map that seems to just go into the water, you can accually sneek troops only into the german base from here. They will croos the river and enter through the small fishing vilage on the other side. |

Posts: 134 | Monkey Soldier, this is a topic for the forums but you only use 1 starting position to make a 4 vs4. Just assign each HQ to the appropriate player, click on Starting_Position then in the right hand toolbar you will see an area to Assign it to a certain player. The default is "World". Only use the normal starting position not any that have a number after it like Starting Position_4. |

Posts: 134 | Like the map but don't like the long bridge near the axis. Every time I repaired the 3 bridges the axis would hit it with artillery and I would have to start all over again. After repairing the bridges 8 times I just closed the map. I do like the overall map but I suggest adding another route to the axis or indestructible bridges.  |

Posts: 134 | I did know about the foot path at the top of the map but I blocked it off with mg nests and barbed wire. I was focusing on the bridge route so I could get armor to the axis bases and destroy them. There is one bridge I believe that is industructable. I forget which one though...  |

Posts: 22 | Yeah, it didn't look right though, Also most maps with bridges you have to worry about people blasting it, it does suck that I had to use 2 bridges! It is also a last line of defense that the germans will have to protect thier base and the other victory point. |

Posts: 3 | Hey man, great man, just the kind of gameplay i'm into. There are a few things you could fix though.
-There's a few errors with some of the pickupable items. Not sure what causes them, but the 50 cals at the beach don't make squads they just get equipped but disappear, the anti-tank guns on the hill above the beach, by the farm, can't be equipped, the machine gun next to that has an error where it'll keep making MG42 squads with no MG42's.
-The run from the Axis base to the beach is a bit of a problem. By the time you're there allies could alreayd be pushing up the ramp and moving to your base. Also, the problem of connecting strategic points is a problem when you have squads to repair and the run back would leave you weak and the run to the beach would leave that squad already dead.
I suggest you put some starter squads at the beach for Axis and the area North of the beach already in axis control. Will make it more interesting to have to -retake- Axis controlled points rather than capturing unoccupied points which would historically already be fortified positions. |

Posts: 2 | Great map with lots of points that makes it fun to play. Not having to wait for Munition and Fuel all the time. But theres a big BUT to not only this map. In skrimish mode the AI is insanely stupid. I was playing on Axis side. Here all the tanks were driving down at the fuel/munition points and stacking up on eachother there. instead of driving over the bridge and attacking the enemy.
And if they were to drive over the bridge. At least try they would stop at the middle and not knowing if to go forward or backward. So had to use arty to make them go away, then rebuild the bridge to get my troops over (tanks that is).
On other maps this is a generally big problem. People tend to make great maps but alot of the places are just to tight to get a tank trough and i assume the tanks aint that smart to drive back and go around. This happens in both Skrimish mode and playing online (computers along with people).
But anyway this is a great map but i guess it could perhaps need a bridge further down since all the tanks on axis side is driving down to the munition/fuel points making me believe they think they can cross over river further down.

The .50 cals DO work even though they dissappear, trust me, ive modifiedy peoples maps with all the usable weapons and tested EVERY single one, in different amounts, I equiqqed a rifleman squad with 3 .50 cals and, holy crap, they were the main assault force  BTW the .50 cal adds like 4 points against infantry compared to the +2 for the MG42. The fifty-cal eats up anything it sees.
Also, to anyone that maps, try adding little weapons like this cause it adds fun, but make sure which type work cause there is several in the World Builder, maybe ill write a guide sometime. BTW, the droppable panzerfaust PWNS, It appears invisible, but, when the squad attacks It sends out like 1 shot per 3 to 5 seconds, doing the same damage but RAPID FIRE
And to ZeluS, GREAT JOB, its so much fun, its like real war. 
Also, do you think you could make some more Battle Field 1942: Road to Rome maps like Operation Baytown yOU GooD MaN, keEp oN MApPinG!!! / |

Posts: 20 | The AI has a problem with the bridge leading out of the northern biouvac. Has a very nasty tendency to get hungup on it and cause a seriously nasty traffic jam that can last the whole game. Might wanna put up a 2nd bridge? or maybe find a way to correct the pathfinding some... Otherwise, all in all a pretty good map |

Posts: 10 | this map looked as if it would be amazing, the ai built a huge force. but...
1) the german tanks keep going to where all the supply points are in the north
2) the american ai does very little. same with nazis.
3) there is actually no way for american vehicles to go inland
4) the american infantry try, but get stuck on that little path, and the few that get through get mowed down instantly
5) the american ai spam you with planes from the north west, and they fall straight into my/nazi base.
6) massive hold up on the bridge
7) took the best part of 5 minutes for nazi infantry to get even near the beach
8) then you find out you can get anything on the beach, because of that barbed wire
just sort these out, and this will be the best map ever!!! sorry for long post. look forward to the next release |

Posts: 1 | I don't like the Maze Like layout of the roads/trails.. takes forever to get to some spots, even after you control everything south of the bridge...
Skinny Roads and Choke points are great (like in Black Forest).. but to make them endlessly wind up and down, makes for too much wasted time!
Like the concept of full blown battle with lots of resources and such...
Played MP with two friends.. and the German AI chose the Arty Doctrine and it was sheer horros.. Arty Drop after Arty drop.. finally won 3 hours later |

Posts: 17 | I had fun playing your map, until I went crazy over what the AI was doing with the tanks. The AI would park there tank in the center of the bridge and all vehicles would then do a pyle up where nothing got by. I was lucky to be able to get some troops on the top of the map going through the water, not sure if you planned on that for maybe a sneak attack from npcs/player from the start area from the bottom of the map but anyway. So if possible is there a way to make the bridge wider or maybe put 2 bridges side by side (even though with 2 bridges would probaly due the same pyle up problem) but still great map fun to play |

( adding an extra bridge or 2, awesome environmental effect(s) ( for OF users) and a soundtrack (kinda bland without background music) would rock mue-bueno! |
