On the same note, maybe the animations should be changed a little when reloading weapon. In my personal experience I have never tapped a forward assist when loading a new magazine, nor did it take me this long to reload under fire
Tap the forward assist? Im pretty sure we are taught to tap the magazine..... :confused:

Personally, I'm just glad you don't scream IYOAS in your sig. Eitherway, glad to find another Marine on the forums. Glad you put your MOS on your name, kept me from calling you a pog. See you around Brother. My last unit was 2/8.

You get a Semper Fi from me, which is rare, I'm not very moto.


Welch, I know you're laid up bro, but use spell check!!! Marine is capitalized!

none, unless your spec ops, your comon soldier on the battle feild dosent need it and its a waist of ammo. special operations carry them due to the fact that they are in a smaller unit and need the ability to lay down a heavy volume of fire to make the enemy keep there heads down or apear to be a larger force. your comon ground troop though would never have a full auto weapon unless its belt feed.

I was wondering... what is the standard formation of a fireteam (in-game, a 6-men fireteam = a squad) (I KNOW A FT is made of 4 people) when moving through open terrain, mountain terrain, open streets/cities?

And whatabout house clearance? You don't choke a grenade there right? Civis my be there eh?

And also, are ya going to Afghanistan? Cheers!


(Finally some on-topic (and one off-topic) questions!)
Guys, when a new player comes, just answer his question and go on your merry way, instead of going berserk! It's THAT simple! :D

the formations:

un fortunatly it depends on some variables, but teh standars are: when in doubt bound, when in doubt "frag out" in game always frag every room, to show room clearing i would have to actualy work with your clan/team in game, witch im willing to do :)

when assaulting, split the squad into 2 teams assault and support(RM =any kit with a red dot or iron sites besides the medic.)

assault=Sl, RM,RM

support=AR,GL/MM,Med



wedge=open or slightly wooded areas, assaults, comonly used when traveling under cover of another squad. (squads should flip flop the patern when moving if moving with one squad behind the other.

----------@SL/TL
------@RM---@ GL
-@ AR----------@ medic
===========@ RM

line abreast= good for assaults, ambushes, defencive lines, support by fire line for another squad that is flanking or bounding forward.
RM----AR----SL/TL--MED--GL----RM
-@ ----@------@------@-----@-----@


dimond=protective postiure when you dont know where contact may come from or unit is alone

-------------@SL/TL

------@RM---------@RM

----------@AR---@GL

--------------@MED


colum=jungle or non open areas, tight ally ways

-----@SL/TL

-----@RM

-----@RM

-----@AR

-----@MED

-----@GL



staggerd=good for streets,security halts, extracting,ect

--------|@SL ------------- |
--------|-------------------|
--------|------------ -@RM|
--------|-------------------|
--------|@RM------------- |
--------|-------------------|
--------|--------------@AR|
--------|-------------------|
--------|@MED------------|
--------|-------------------|
--------|--------------@GL|

Also, how do you feel about in-game assets and how they relate to the infantry?

Link to my thread on it

Do you feel that your assets such as MBTs and APCs should support the infantry, or that the infantry support the MBTs and APCs more?

If you look at the Korengal map, what would be your advice for the US force there? Would your approach ingame be different from real life and do you think the weapons under US posession are adequate to the situation?
