30 consultants on a game! How many do they actually need? No wonder the games cost so much. |

That's what I was saying in another thread, spend the money on actual development! |

You probably only need one or two. One who could actually tell how they operate, what equipment they have how they select it for a mission, vegetation that would be in the area. Another could advise on the background stuff like helicopter fly-ins and limitations etc. Also the restriction to active personnel only could be a security risk. So why not have ex service men who had actually done similar missions? |

Agreed - sounds ridiculous. Two or three should cover it and the rest spent on game development. I would rather play a game that is slightly inaccurate but really good than a highly accurate but crap game. |

If they want a realistic game, no respawns and you only get what ever ammo that you take with you. You could call in a mortar or air support there is a time lag. I think that better game play is more important that total reality. If necessary explain why the differences. |
