give insurgent class 1 IED

SethLive! · Post by **SethLive!** » 2007-08-25 17:17

problem #1: too many war vets in insurgent maps
problem #2: not enough IEDs being used by the insurgent faction

Solution: why not give the insurgent class an IED to solve both these problems?

That's a damn good idea!

I don't think it would make the ambusher useless, because they would still have 2 IEDs and the proximity IEDs aswell.

i thought the insurgent already had 1 IED

that might have been in the previous version tho

Yep, they had it in v.5... now they have ammo bags which can give them MORE IEDs.

Well, insurgents already have 3 ammo bags. So, insurgent + 2 molotovs + 3 ammo bags + 1 IED...? =/. Insurgents would just keep throwing down ammo bags and get more IEDs. That would be too spammy...

would be unrealistic as there are not that many IEDs going about in r/l.

Oh another thing about these IEDs, are you gona do one that can be Demolished via Cellphone.. since those exist in RL, would be the Insurgent version of the C4.

The C4 model is a place holder.

Just the odd half a dozen going off a week, not many at all really.

a simpler solution would be to swap the shotgun for a (t)rusty AK.

it would be nice if they swapped the IED to a proximity fuse instead of remote detonation aswell (main reason being most vehicles are out fitted to jam signals) in place of the mines, maybe with a rock as a place holder image

yep, AK47 or AKS74U for ambusher instead of saiga. how often do you see fighters with saiga's in Iraq?

the ambusher already gets a proximity IED, which is just using a place holder model of the mine at the moment.

i played with the mines (IED's) a bit, but the proximity range is still kinda small (for small vehicle atleast)

they act like a normal mine would at the moment.

without actualy knowing anything I'd bet the dragunov is more common than the saiga..

Nations @ war mod have good placeholders for IEDs, mybe PR could use them

IED= some sort of explosive with a mobile phone attached

detonator= mobile phone (makes button noises when pressed to detonate)

as for ambusher weapon, AKS old-style, with iron sights

preferably
