Excellent intro, one of the best I've seen. Tough mission, you need to think ahead.
This gets 5 starts!
This is a nice mission, but I play everything on the "expert" level. You provided no weapons with night vision capability so while I have night vision goggles, as soon as I look through my scope its dark. If you edit this mission, I recommend night vision scopes for the weapons as I have no aiming reticule on the screen on high difficulty. It's almost impossible to shoot anyone. I can easily find a location to start sniping off people and soften up the base, but while doing so, it gets so dark I can no longer see. Nobody would go into a night mission without night capability so please give it to us in any updates of this mission. Thanks!
Excellent mission. The sad, and true, fact of the matter is the BiS is using an AI engine that is well over 10 years old. ARMA 2 is nothing more than a graphical update, so don't be fooled by the upcoming ARMA 3. It's all the same ancient crap, and they are making a fortune off the ignorance of loyal players of the game. I say this because this mission is a perfect example of using stealth and relying on an AI that isn't written in Fortran via punchcards. It's really, really sad to watch the AI crawl by a 30 foot opening in a wall (yes, 30 foot opening) and crawl 452 feet around an entire structure just to travel a total of 10 feet. The AI engine is old, flawed and in all honesty doesn't work. The game itself is still fun to play, but I remember always sticking my team behind a house somewhere and doing a mission completely solo because the AI was so, so bad. That was 10 years ago, give or take. And the same exact engine is still in place today. Bohemia would be smart, financially, to invest the resources into a sound algorithm for the AI. Sure, they work out "driving" kinks. But that's the least of our single player problems. Shoot, they still haven't fixed the mouse bug. On the SAME software that's ANCIENT. We're shelling out way too much money for the SAME EXACT piece of software wrapped in a different colored package.

Great mission, man. Thanks!
Rant about AI. learn to play COOP, over and out.
Gonna try the mission!
Great mission! One of the best I played. Excellent! 5 stars
Great mission! I agree with Gunny Wilson, best intro ever! The only one thing is that once I got everyone to the extraction point, the mission didn't end :( I would have loved to see a great outro as well.
Excellent work mate!
Cheers!
Great mission!
@VAC71: i think you have to replay the mission. it happened to me too when i reach Exctraction point, chopper didnt come, so i played it again and next time i called for Evac and marked the area with red smoke. Chopper came. And this mission has another part too where after evac the chopper will be hit by SAM and then you have to find your way to US Airbase but you won't have map and campus. So you have to use your mind. i found two hints for the 2nd part of the mission:
1.you can collect map from the dead body of Pilot.
2.While switching teammates a page pops up which on the lefts side of it names are there and on the right the small map. (you can use that map and find your way to the base)
@Clayman: Did you think of these two way of finding maps before making the 2nd part of the mission?? because anyone smart can complete the 2nd part without any problem.
Im an ARMA noob, but I cant rescue the guys from the airfield without the alarm going off. I get up to the compound they are in, and kill about 3 or 4 guards, but then the alarm goes off, and the tank comes, and I cant deal with the tank. Help? Btw i m using the guy with the silencer, and my team AI is not being detected.
