Great map, dude!

things dk2 has taught me to be irrationally afraid of: bathrooms, palm trees

[@paulsilagi4783]

Ah, yeah, the classic "bomber in a bathroom" prank that one of the earlier missions pulls, just to make you afraid of those things for all eternity.

LETS GOOOO papa Pairs! Thank you for checking out our mod, the boys are quite happy to see you play around with the more authetically built 75th Ranger Regiment(perhaps a look at the recently released SF/Nowheraki Commandos next video wink wink). If you have any feedback, I would be happy to collect and sent it to the boys! And funny you mention the voice overs, at least when it comes to the airstrikes that was done by none other than one of our very own mod devs lmao

[@levantera2179]

I honestly didn't expect to see our mod here, only believed it when I got spammed with the video by 5 different persons lol. It was really satisfying to see the unit being used mostly as we wanted it to behave (except that little bug with the PL lol). As the one who coded all the off-map support of the unit, I must say, you did the right thing when running away from both the mortar and the A10, they have a much bigger dispersion than one might think at first.

[@ControlledPairsGaming]

Beautiful work, guys. I'm excited to check out the other factions!

[@OlemShepard]

@@ControlledPairsGaming Our US Special Forces(Nowheraki Commandos included) faction is out atm. :) SMU will take a while, we need a break.

I play on a laptop so thanks for making it not laggy compared to other mods 😂

Objective in mission briefing asked to sweep the buildings for intels, as well. But proceeds to bombard and raise down the buildings 😂 Thx for another good Door kicker videos, it’s a rare opportunity to hear sit reps in certified operator‘s POV :)

[@GrumpyReaper2525]

What really amazes me is the amount of firepower available to a squad-sized American infantry element.

[@ControlledPairsGaming]

Valid.

[@GodOfWar221]

"Because he's the team leader and thinks he's super Gucci" Never before has a more accurate statement been made. If I haven't mentioned it before, I'm loving the level of rp element that comes into these videos. And the time you take the break down the tactics that are gonna be used.

[@OlemShepard]

Now this was one hell of a pleasant surprise after just finishing off the work week. I didn't expect a video on our mod to be honest, especially not an hour long one. :) Seems like you had a lot of fun with it. :D Regarding the platoon structure not being quite accurate, we had squad leaders, and a full weapons squad early on in development, but we quickly realized it was too cluttered, and we had to make some sacrifices in realism for the sake of not having redundant units(Gonna get shit from some SL now). If you've checked out the SF faction, that's why they're 6 strong, not 12 strong. ;) We also have an additional uniform addon that works with AnthonyNonStop's Camo Selector mod if you're into more in depth military Barbie. :)

[@connorallgood0922]

This mod looks awesome. Do y'all have a channel or something for this mod where y'all post updates and such?

[@rosh597]

@@connorallgood0922 Sup, Project ARES dev here, we tend to keep stuff on the down low with the occasional screenshots or two :) We just got done with SF so we are winding down for a moment and taking a break.

[@robertb.g.9408]

Found out about this game from your channel by random and was really impressed by mechanics. Purchased it from your site so keep up with good work on videos and best of wishes to you man.

[@ControlledPairsGaming]

Awesome, thank you!

[@crispy_338]

Love that they use Insurgency Sandstorm voice lines 😂

[@apel39]

Yo Pairs, in case you do not know this: When you click on the little arrow in the upper left corner pointing downwards, you get an overview of your squad, with ammunition and gear and health status. You can also quick select any member and zoom in on him

[@dylanh8163]

Literally just rewatched your last couple of Doorkickers Videos last night, this is perfect timing.

[@paraisoreconquistado]

Most promising DK2 mod, recently they added a new Green Beret Special Forces Advisors unit. You can use both SOF guys and the militia they're training. Another mod I recommend is the one that adds MARSOC Marine Raiders (they can use close air support) and the Retro Delta Force in IOV

[@stra815]

How to download this mods ?

[@emoment1088]

​@@stra815 Nexusmods, my recommendation is to use their Vortex mod loader tool though, since I tried to do it myself first and couldn't make it work, but the loader tool ended up doing it right the first time.

[@fearlessmoon]

Fantastic stuff as always. I have personally been diving into the DK2 mods recently myself and I am happy to say that after watching Pairs use and explain doctrine through this mod and mission that I confidently know nothing! I constantly rewatch your older DK2 videos so I was instantly hooked once I saw a new one appear featuring some larger scale tactics, it's exactly what I have been personally learning and exploring so this was amazing to watch. Excited for the next ones!

[@weezyronin6484]

I think that's the longest I've heard the intro-outro beat play at the end there. Sick. 👍

[@fishystick117]

You should try this custom campaign called “The Steely-Eyed Stare”, they got some pretty hectic and hard, but fun missions.

[@driftvader8869]

With the amount of CAS and Explosives used in this raid, a MK83 drop to even out the whole camp might have been more effective :D

I definitely shoulda watched the video in full before commenting, but oh well, fuck it we ball, here's another one for the algorithm Appreciate you showing that glitch you had there - I'll make some tweaks when I'm next at the computer, should hopefully be fixed when that goes live. Also, Fs in chat for the broskis (don't feel bad, I still haven't 3-starred it either lol)

I'vr been a fan of the channel for awhile, just recently got my email set up, great content keep up the good work!

[@ryansdevil]

Super pumped for the full release of this game. I really hope this game does well for KillHouse and they go on for years and years to make some of the best tactical games out there

[@ax23mgh8]

Great to finally see some DK2 mods on this channel. Modders as usual prove how important they are at adding variety and new, interesting mechanics to play with. I can recommend MARSOC and CIA Ground Branch mods. Also I'd love to see you try United States Armed Forces mod - I think it'd be interesting to see for a change some regular forces like US Army or Marines.

[@connorallgood0922]

I was just thinking about something like this. I am not into the modding side of DK2 so I have no idea what mods are out there, but I was just thinking it'd be so cool to get a mod to add in some conventional forces as factions.

[@paulsilagi4783]

Yeah, those are also really cool. Though I *may* have committed a few warcrimes with the AN/M14 incendiary grenades that the CIA GRS from the ground branch mod get. Just sending them in with pistols and seven (!) grenades each, dumping a bunch of fire at every location where an enemy might be. I've had missions where I never even saw a single enemy.

First KIA was very stupid, tbh. You just send 2 men into kill zone, when you knew it was under enemy controll. Somehow, with help of God, one of them survived, and you just dropped building by A-10. You are nice commander, because in reality someone will send two more men into this kill zone

Ok, if mortars aren't in vanilla DK2, I feel like that would be a good update go get, and JTAC, I mean they are used with special operations I assume, I know JTAC is, mortars I can't say as I have no experience or knowledge. But those kind of seem like something that would be a base mechanic in the game. I can also see why they aren't though, especially for certain maps.

I left some instructions under the pinned comment, but I'll leave some here too. I'm not sure what step you're at, so I'll hit ya with a full step-by-step, just in case anyone else might also need it; 1 - download Project ARES from the Nexus (as well as whatever optional add-ons you want - I recommend all of them lol) 2 - install your mods (either manually into a mod folder or thru Vortex - I use Vortex because I can't be arsed with manual installation most of the time) 3 - boot up DK2, click the little mod manager button in the bottom right corner of the main menu screen (there should be four, click 2nd from left IIRC) 4 - activate the mods, confirm & click restart 5 - after restart is done, check squads menu; you should see the new Rangers (and new Green Berets if you downloaded that too) 6 - full send Hope you got some stars saved up for the unlocks, brotha!
