Multi Session Operations - worth a try on Alpha?

Saw this on armaholic.... I think it would be a blast to try out on Alpha for something new. Maybe you guys have seen or tried before?

Quote highead :
Multi Session Operations is a modular mission framework. Essentially it is a collection of scripts that create a persistent, living scenario in which the player operates. Unlike regular missions that have pre-scripted objectives, MSO procedurally generates enemy forces that are unpredictable and (semi) random. Players have to think beyond the mere tactical level and build up the intelligence picture, carrying out recce patrols to identify enemy locations and conduct deliberate attacks to neutralise them. Everything is persistent, including equipment, ammo, vehicles and even player lives. MSO is designed specifically for Dedicated Server use.

This is on Bravo atm in terms of Patrol Ops and it is custom made by BL1P

I doubt this would be moved onto Alpha unless it was made by a member but I don't know you may get this on to alpha but I don't know who would play it

Preferably we have Bravo for our MSO because of ACRE and ACE and such

We've played this several times in the past. In fact the Patrol Ops that is played often on Bravo is built on it. The last time we had one loaded on Alpha it had a lot of reliance on ACE functions so it was a little problematic. So, it would take someone taking up the charge and doing some editing to get a mission tested for use on Alpha.

Thanks for the reply. What peaked my interest in the armaholic mso post was the claim it only required cba. I am running it now local with the alpha modset and it seems ok. I am going to keep messing around. So far it is pretty cool, seems like a vanilla patrolops!

I'd love to see Patrol OPS MSO on Alpha!

I've been play testing this weekend and it is pretty nice. I've been running CBA only w/ ST HUD etc (typical alpha modest). As you would expect gameplay seems more complex than the bread-butter "Domination" but perhaps it pushes towards more teamplay. I could see this complexity being somewhat of a deterrent to some new players. Maybe BL1P can comment on technical compatibility with Alpha? Just curious... I love patrol Ops and would love to see something like it to add to the occasional variety on alpha for when there are more experienced players online looking for a new challenge!

I will catch you in TS...off for that new mic...

I made a vanilla PO:MSO for alpha once does that not work anymore ?

If not when I get some time ill try doing a conversion of the current Bravo ones for alpha if there is a call for it...
