French Forces Infantry Preview

[ankyle62]

Very nice!

The blue helmets just scream, "Shoot me!"

something to aim for lololol

[DonDOOM]

@Bosco xD ahahah

Units look good, like the Marksman/Sniper rifle.
It'll be fun seeing blue helmets everywhere!

Maybe a white flag slot could be implemented, just incase

cant wait to make an INF SQ as France and get me some blood.

[crot]

yay, frenchies. So who are the peacekeepers going to fight??

[Hauteclocque]

IDF, as said in Operation Marlin map thread

And please, stop with the French Army jokes...it is funny at some point, but you could be at least more imaginative. The intelligence level is pretty low (except Animal), I'm sure you can do better

I'm sure a lot of countries would be jealous of our military background that cannot be summed up to our defeat during WWII.

IDF, as said in Operation Marlin map thread

So thats like blufor fighting blufor? To mix things up alittle?
Operation marlin map thread. Can you gief link pls??

[Redamare]

I think that the blue helmets are cool . . . but sort of stick out a bit lol switch the blue helmet to the officer and keep normal camo helmets for squad infantry

[Sgt_Doctor]

@Bosco xD ahahah

Nice work. Blue helmets definitely remind me of the UN, makes sense because theyre fighting the IDF

Not making a french joke, but i definitely look forward to using the surrender hands, very realistic feature

[Fuzzy McDoodle]

Oh god those French jokes never get old...

But yeah, those helmets are sweet. I'll admit a bit out there, but hey, they're French. Can't wait to shoot off the FAMAS

i thought mine was rather witty and different.

banter aside, looking forward to the implementation of the French, a lot of cools toys at their disposal plus a new theatre to fight in

[Hauteclocque]

Nah, your sentence made me laugh don't worry Animal, I wasn't aiming you when I said that

[sharpie]

Guys, the french have had PLENTY of military victories. Like with Napoleon, until he faced the Russians.

thats pretty much it though. Just Napoleon, who I have the utmost respect for.


But guys, you have to remember-the French may not have a good army, but thier Women are top notch.

[STORM-Mama]

thats pretty much it though. Just Napoleon

Ehm, no.

There's a reason that France was the most powerful and influental country on the European continent. All the way from the Medieval Age up to 1812... If they really are and were the cowards the French-bashers try to make of them they would not have survived in the Europe of those days.

point.
Im not too strong the the Western european history department (Unless its from 1914 and onwards), so thanks for the info :3

[=]H[= JakCurse]

Stand in front of something blue. Maybe the sky

Am I right in remembering that when the French were issued blue camo in ww1, that was the justification?



& @Sharpie that's ok. We can't expect an American to know about something their country wasn't directly involved in, amirite?

[Sgt_Doctor]

Ehm, no.

Thanks mate.

Just, if the French soldiers wear a blue helmet it's because they are from UNIFIL. Which is mandated by the UN to hold the Lebanese frontier.









And this is why IDF is going to be the OpFor on Operation Marlin.

[Midnight_o9]

Seriously, where does this reputation comes from? WWII? didn't the brits retreated like us in 1940? didn't we retreated partly because the US refused to help us, to enter in the war?
Algeria? It seems that it was a political defeat and not a military one.
Indochina? Didn't the US have been defeated there too?
I'm fed up of all these ignorant kids saying we're only good at retreating (not talking about PR players but in general). And if it is because of Irak and our refusal of joining the coalition, it's pretty much clear now that this war was useless and not justified.
I am not too strong on the modern french history, I m just wondering why we have to endure these "jokes".
Now I am very respectful to every soldier, even from countries with absolutly no military history, I think every man who serve his country and take the eventuality to risk his life for it deserve respect.
please explain to me the reason of these jokes, thank you!

Again, awesome job, good to know about reddot and eotech

[Wakain]

I seriously caught myself hoping for a horizon blue revival, a truly awesome way of looking at camouflage

edit: midnight, it's about ww2, unfortunately the fact that petain called for a treaty early in the war is widely known, but the french sacrifices and general military performance a lot less. frankly, I find those jokes rather uncalled for as well.
we dutch were overrun in 5 days because our mounted divisions preferred to ride bikes and our military doctrine was based on giving the germans wet feet, I never hear any jokes about that

[Mellanbror]

Just wanted to say great job! Looking forward to playing the new maps (especially the djungel one) and playing with new toys. Ones gotta love the famas
Think I read somewhere it's one of the fastest firing assaulrifles.
Cheers =)
