TG Roots: Tactical Mod Night!

TG Roots: Tactical Mod Night!
brought to you by the 6th Devils Brigade.


What is TacMod?
TacMod was an all-TG modification (by SgtDuke) in an effort to enhance teamwork, increase the need for tactics and improve the TG ethos to Battlefield 2. TacMod edits the existing BF2 gameplay with updated kits, weapon damages, and most of all some of the most memorable BF2 community made maps of all time.

Features
TacMod FAQ
What happened to TacMod?
TacMod continued to grow in popularity at TG until SgtDuke made some real life changes and moved across the world. The timing coincided with the increased popularity of Project Reality. Eventually the BF2 TG'ers moved onto (Project Reality). Project Reality overtook both TacMod and Vanilla here at TG. TG stopped supporting TacMod around .4 and by early 2007 (With the release of PR .5) TG had completely switched to Project Reality. Ever wonder where old-school PR maps such as Operation Compton,
Inishail Forest, Greasy Mullet, Pheonix, and Steel Thunder came from? TacMod, baby.

While TacMod did not outlive other mods here at TG, it's modification and features eventually found a home in Project Reality.
Many of TG's most veteran PR players found their roots with Vanilla BF2 and TG's infamous TacMod.
When?
Monday June 16th, 2008.
19:30 PM Eastern Standard Time.

Re: TG Roots: Tactical Mod Night!

looks interesting, I particularly want to try some of these features:

- Adjusted infantry movement speed - The player sprint speed has been increased while the standard movement speed has been decreased.

- Adjusted infantry stamina

- Removed all personal scoring except for the death counter

- Removed flag capture meter (under mini-map), Remove a visual indicator of the capture progress.

Re: TG Roots: Tactical Mod Night!

I'd be all over this if I wasn't working that night.

And, not to split hairs, but POE2 really took over Vanilla here - our vanilla server literally became our POE2 server, iirc. PR didn't take off here until a few months later. Also, Inishail and Op Phoenix were made for Tac Mod/TG, not so much the others you listed.

Re: TG Roots: Tactical Mod Night!

Any thoughts on how long this might go? Are we talking PR ticket numbers here? I'd like to play, but won't be able to get on until near 10:30 Eastern.
