PR's new factions

[lonelyjew]

Israel would be by far the coolest addition though I don't expect the DEV's to create any new factions. Anyone who says they wouldn't want to drive a Machbet or Merkava is a dirty liar.

[Desertfox]

This gets mentioned alot in other topics, myself included.
so lets do a vote, that way the dev team can give us what we want.

We have the BRITISH, and the Americans, the MEC is unrealistic and China is a not totally unrealistic, however I dont think they would go to war with the west for the reason, they would have too much to lose.

Its not like canada is the third biggest force in afghanistan. In the words of stewdad

"what has France, not to mention Ukraine, contributed lately to the defense of Afghanistan? Hmmm?"

[Bob_Marley]

GeZe']Taiwan!!

Now thats a good idea:

[Army Musician]

I was thinking more implace of the MEC. but hey never mind.

[LiquidSnake]

How about Switzerland with their precious Sturmgewehr 90 (manufacturer's name: Sig 550) )) I could do the Voices ^_^

[$kelet0r]

Israel or germany are obvious choices seeing as they have unique weaponry.
Russia would just be the current or slightly lower tech MEC with different skins.
Canada is similarly a bit pointless (US-alike weapons and vehicles) but anything to appease the Eggman

On the other hand I am a little worried by the forum's appetite for the pointless additions and the quantity over quality approach. Less is more people!

[LtSoucy]

Russia and N. Korea are the 2 biggest names right now on CNN besides for Iran that justs wants attention. My votes go for Germany, France, Russia, N. Korea.

No more fatcions work on the factions you got, and make more insurgent maps

[bosco_]

RuSsia StrOng!!!1111

[Guerra norte]

Росси́я

Then we could add the T95!


Or the Black Eagle!

[Salah ad Din]

I firmly believe adding more factions is a waste of time for the developers. They could be working on more important things.
...
I recommend to work with what we have. Add maps, weapons, and vehicles above all. People love variety of vehicles. I don't want to see more clone factions. So unnecessary. They all have military equivalents, the only unique faction is the insurgents.

Anyways, add more planes (two seaters!), work on the SOFLAM, the usual bugs, more maps, more weapons, more vehicles in general. That kind of stuff. Another faction isn't worth the time and resources.

Exactly, I agree totally and wholeheartedly!

Also, I want the MEC to stay in, even if there is no MEC in RL. (There will be one though, you just wait awhile and see... well maybe a bit longer than awhile).
Reason for MEC to stay is this: the US army is simply so powerful, no single nation could stand a chance in a conventional war (maybe China, Russia??) but everybody else would need a coalition to field the necessary ressources.
The problems the US have in Iraq where not with the Iraqui army, but with the aftermath of the war.
So, actually, having e.g. Iran in a prolonged campaign against USA is unrealistic, thus not allowable in PR.

Ad taiwan and the Dutch army ( i would go for Taiwan btw even if im Dutch XD )

Q F E

more factions are utterly pointless, we already have 5 with as many as 7+ planned! US Army vs MEC, GB vs Taliban would be more than enough for a game. But we also have US marines, a Chechen style militia and the PLA, as well as rumours of Canada. Too many unnecessary additions. The gameplay is what makes PRM great, otherwise lots of skins and models would dictate a games' popularity.

At a push I would like to see a (german armed) Euro force against China in heavy jungle, with the British focused on Taliban insurgents in asymmetric warfare, and the US focused on an MEC desert conventional combat. Doubt it will turn out like that. You have to ask when you make a suggestion if it would actually benefit the mod. Regarding adding more factions in roles that are already being done, the answer is no.

[KingLorre]

So that would mean. a newly formed EU armed force. batteling China for the controll over oil fields? sounds nice in my head BTW XD

[DJJ-Terror]

I would love to see some Africas militias to simulate Somalia or Sierra Leone conflicts.

You've been watching Black Hawk Down and Blood Diamond huh?

[G.Drew]

christ not this again!
look, theres plenty of factions in PR, incase u cant remember what the factions are or are going to be, here:
http://guide.realitymod.com/index.php?title=Factions

and acutally African militants arent a bad idea, its realistic for a kick off, plus a blk hwk down map would pwn

but u could say that the militia faction could be used for this case

[Epim3theus]

Dutch army for sure, could be easily done. They wair some Ami camouflage i think so just slap on the C7 and Minimi from the Brits and some faulty English dialogue and you re a winner.

just joking btw

Yay Kiddies with AKs.

[TayloR016]

Italy...

I'm puzzled by some of these suggestions though.
Iran: would be pretty much identical to today MEC
N. Korea: would almost be identical to China
Israel: would be almost identical to the US, apart from some unique armor
France: Ok
Germany: Ok
Lebanon: What's the story with this one? The lebanese army have not seen action for a decade.
Russia: Ok

It's gotta be israel theres only the uk and us on sides at the mo so it'd be good to add them in and maybe russia in the future.

how are they indentical some different weapons, tanks .. language lol they only use some us stuff and that makes them an easier army to add in then
