Thank you! Just made my day, I did a real laugh out loud at that, while at work :lol:

I see a problem with the kayak/canoe option, your going to get arguments over what type should be used i.e. tripping vs. white water :wink:

As long as its much faster than swimming.
A multi person Kayak (maybe 3 person) can travel faster the more paddlers aboard.
Fucking LOL!!!!

I think this should provide the stealthy aquatic approach you're looking for Haze.

Perhaps in need of a change of colour though. :p

I like the Kanu idea.........a cool stealthy aproach or reconosence.................................but i still like more small rubber boats with paddle power for 5 people or 4 or 3...

Would like to see it in the game just to witness someone trying to get away from hostile fire in it

Pshh. Everyone knows the Canadian Navy is a myth. Do you really think anyone would give them that much firepower?!?!?

I'm sorry if this is a bit harsh, but this has gota be the second stupidest suggestion I've ever seen.


But on a serious note, we do need like a RIB w/o a outboard that you paddle or something so you can sneak in. I hate it when you use a boat and they hear you a mile away and shoot you with a rocket.

While two-man kayaks and other small, human-powered boats are used for infiltration by reconnaissance units and special operations forces (Army SF maritime ops detachments are known to use kayaks, but have not heard about them being used in the SEALs), they would be difficult to implement in game, as they would be very slow, and we would have to animate a a rowing / paddling sequence. So, you are not likely to see them in game.

They along with other unusual (by modern standards) modes of transport, such as horses and mule strings, would be better for an unconventional warfare MMORPG or strategy game than a first person combined arms combat game.

Unique suggestion, though. Welcome to the forums. :)

hehehe..yeah. I think we all should give him a double thumbs up for suggesting a unique idea/never-been-suggested at least.
