Yes.... so a large special forces assault is possible. My suggestion would have been for like v1.0 or beyod. This is far from a requirement that PR needs. i just thought it would be cool to impliment and a nice feature to have on certain maps.

And it was just a suggestion. You guys are like trying to tear me a new a$$hole for making a tiny suggestion.

It's not personal Specter, it's just that there seems to always be people wanting to add in super cool SF gear or make the SF even more unique. It happens when people suggest ultra modern rare equipment as well. PR really isn't about that so every time another post comes up suggesting something in this vain it gets old fast and gets allot of negative remarks. Sorry if I offended you :grin:

hehe.. how about renaming the Spec Ops kit to: MOUT Assault or something like that.. then it will be a "special" class, but not a special force operative?

Can you really stop violence by using violence?

'[R-MOD wrote:Thunder']Spetsnaz in operating Afghanistan during the soviet invasion operated in and with normal Russian units, often using equipment and uniforms form the units they where attached to
The units you call spetsnaz are actually either recon(about one batallion per regiment) or VDV(paratroopers) units . GRU (goverment intelegence service) and KGB special forces (which are actually real 'spetsnaz') never operated with (or being attached to) army units

But no offense:
You are thinking more along the lines of the vbf2 special forces expansion.
When was the last time you think the navy seals were deployed as a 64 man force in real life? Never. And if you cut down the number of seals on their team, suddenly it is extremely unbalanced.

Didn't they storm a fortress once, decades ago? Anyway, I could imagine them operating in big groups, during big operations that is.

yes there was.
But if I remember correctly (could be wrong too) those were 4 man SEAL teams.

And yes sometimes special forces are deployed in larger numbers, but very rarely with normal infantry.
