The US team in PR is the USMC.

The Army uses ACU's.

Plus ACU's suck.

Have a nice day.

Army as separate branch is coming...

'[R-DEV wrote:Eddie Baker']We have been authorized to use a third-party ACU skin and we're modeling the M4 weapons alongside the new M16 models. No ETA yet.

Yes however the only thing ACUs blend in with is *maybe* a gravel road.

Wrong- in PR it is just "US Forces," or else most of the vehicles would not be in there.

Right.

And most soldiers would probably say you're right.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

BDUs, DCUs, multicam! Anything but ACU! Please!

Post by **eggman** » 2007-01-19 05:53

Um.. complain to the US Gov't lol.

PR is set in the near term future.. modelling the US Army in a circa 2010 conflict setting means ACUs.

What's wrong with digital patterns? They've been proven to work better than conventional camo damnit! SCIENCE IS NEVER WRONG!

Post by **eggman** » 2007-01-19 06:03

actually a mate participated in field tests with several different camo schemes for the Canadian Army. It was right around when they were introducing CADPAT.

I think they trialled about a dozen different patterns in various terrain environments (tho primarily woodland as the tests were conducted in Ontario).

The one that came out on top in terms of concealment was the old school WWII era OD green they were replacing lol. That didn't get a lot of publicity

Not saying digital patterns are **** .. the OD green Canadian camo scehme simply wouldn't work in a lot of places the CF get deployed today. But some of it is a little "over scienced" .. don't need a scientist to tell me that the choice of ACU was about budget and not effectiveness.

True, Digital patterns work. Digital patterns like MARPAT and CADPAT. Digital patterns like ACU do not. Making a camo that tried to work everywhere is like trying to defend everywhere. And remember: He who tries to defend everywhere defends nowhere. Its just like that. ACU has so many elements of so many different environments that it sticks out in all of them and blends in in none.

Ah well, atleast it'll make life easy for the insurgents, malitia, MEC and PLA!
