I was wondering if it would be possible to make maps similar to the original ghost recon for coop play? I had a blast playing those missions over xbox live back in the day and have played through a few recently with friends on the steam version and they are still great.

I guess the criteria is;

-AI that scale well at long distances and has realistic awareness
-Ability to script mission objectives and enemy forces

so do you have ghost recon (and addons?) linked to steam, and do you find games through it?
cos i can't find games through Ubi.com anymore.

coop in hos? yeah cqb or open engagements, i'm prob more interested in that than mp if it was done well tbh.

I bought it on steam when the GR complete pack was on sale for really cheap. I hosted the game myself and my friends joined me to play.

that would be pretty cool. just a coop mod not a huge total conversion mod just ghost recon style missions and if you wanted to go all out you could always add modern weapons maps etc... :D

I think ww2 would still be very suitable for the same type of gameplay and has not really been done before to my knowledge. Early war it would be Germans against cut off soldiers and partisans in the forest/mountains and small villages. Later in the war as the German front was collapsing the roles are reversed as they struggle to defend a very thin front.

coop always comes down to AI.
If the HoS AI is quality then i'm just as hopeful for coop maps as PvP content, phaps even more so.
However if it isn't particularly good then prob best to see maps designed soley with MP in mind - and leave the coop to 'cong, arma, R6 swat etc.

You cant be serious with Arma 2. The only thing i remember about the ai was how good it was in driving the friendly infantry units to death with tanks!
