ReconOps Malden has two paths. One short, one longer.

If you board the Helicopter and take off with Radio 0-0-1; This is a shorter more direct mission. The Helo will take you close to the main AO.

If you board the Assault Boat and launch with Radio 0-0-2; This is a longer more investigative mission. You will have optional tasks like preventing a civilian execution, and civilians to question along the way. 

Enemy will be patrolling both towns, roads and interiors of buildings and sheds. 
Features a working Stealth mechanic. Using silenced SMGs/Pistols you can engage all enemies quietly. Being visually spotted, missing a shot, or alerting nearby units will of course make the enemy engage you. AR's are less stealthy as bullets penetrate and travel further. 
  
Synopsis :   

You are part of a highly equipped, highly trained PMC outfit; DEFION.  
Your tasks are generally to clear, hold, and defend or destroy areas and/or infrastructure. 
 
Features :   

• No mods or DLC required. Malden is free content now.
• ~20-45 lightly armored AI at each AO. Optimized and staged using Dynamic Simulation. 
• HD custom textures (see above gallery) 
• Re-spawn and Group Switch enabled.
• Revive available for all players.
• Random Time/Weather each mission start.
• Working Stealth mechanic. Using silenced SMGs/Pistols you can engage all enemies quietly. Being visually spotted, missing a shot, or alerting nearby units will of course make the enemy engage you. AR's are less stealthy as bullets penetrate and travel further.
• Enemy AI have been tuned to High Skill+Low Accuracy.
• Starting weapons are AR MXs, but 9mm SMGs are ideal for stealth. Arsenal is available at the staging area.
• Godmode on demand; On the briefing table there is a laptop (see above gallery pics) should you want to go enlightened.

Designed for Local hosting SP or COOP, runs very light with AI in a localized area. 70-90fps in local testing. Obviously runs like a dream on dedicated servers.

Update v1.1 :

• Fixed a bad trigger not firing when evidence in Arudy Town was collected. Thus hindering progression. Trigger is now fixed and firing correctly. A big thanks to @EgoTobi for reporting the issue.

Update v1.2 :

• Added a "Skip Time" function to a laptop on the briefing table. You can now skip forward by 3hrs at a time by hitting the addAction via the laptop.
