ya the US has women in all branches snice the Gulf War. The USMC does also. But i dont want to knife a female in the face. I would feel horrible about it.
the realistic thing to do would be to put them in as optional medics.
so they may have less mags but more bandages or maybe the ability to heel two people at once, but then youve got to make it so that the male medic has some better attributes like the inclusion of a grenade or something like that.
As far as gaming goes in FPS game, most players will be male and the experience tends to be better in games if u can relate to the character...and since I bet it would take quite an effort to allow you to choose a female skin, it would be a misallocation of resources; since the majority has already been appeased.

I was just about to write this thread off as a heaping pile of nonsense until I read this post. Very good thought and I now fully endorse this, only for civilians however. I'm not sure if it is possible to randomize whether or not the player spawns as either male or female when they select this role but maybe two different civilian classes could be used somehow.

complex idea, the role of women in some mid east cultures would make this a hard to implement idea?
But i really agree we need a new way to arrest, like handcuffs as weapons or somit.
