Stuff like this already exists though. There'll just end up been more of it and in turn people will end up associating different armys with different styles of play.

@ first poster.

I think a better term for what you're trying to suggest would be "Faction Uniqueness" patent pending

This does already exist to a certain extent. IE: US having weaker powered rounds on their standard rifles but more well rounded specialized weapons. .EX: the M14 is the only DMR with 9x (all others have 4x as they do in RL stock fitted) and the M249 is arguably the best SAW in game.

However, even though this exists we can't stray too far from balance.

Can we do uneven teams or will that not work with the autobalance feature?

If autobalance could be tweaked to keep the Insurgent team at 130% the size of the UK team that could work. I think I recall the devs discussing this kind of numerical balance but nothing ever came of it.

well if you gonna add the uneven teams than my whole suggestion can be added to the mod

USMC: Much strong vehicles, good weapons less players
UK : Much strong vehicles, good weapons less players
PLA : less strong Vehicles, nonverry good weapons,more players
MEC : less strong Vehicles, nonverry good weapons,more players
INS : Few 50.cal trucks, bad weapons, lots of players

this will ad new type of gameplay
U.K-USMC need teamplay more, Less man
PLA,MEC,INS need teamplay more, non good weapons, but more players

Even more so, considering the conflict depicted in Project Reality is more or less a World War 3 scenario, you can double or even triple that budget. Military hardware scheduled to see active service in several years may see it alot sooner. I too can imagine body armour being something the Chinese would make standard issue just to get that edge over their counter-parts.

I think this is what the "Team ratio" is in server settings.

what about the zoom of the light at weapons ? looks very odd that an ironsighed AT4 has the same zoom of a pf89 .

Where did you get this idea from?

PLA and MEC are high-tech conventional modern armies.
The QBZ is quite a modern and efficient weapon, and the T-90 is one of the top of its class.
The PLA, currently the worlds largest employer, is trying to reduce the size of its military but make it more advanced. To do the oppotise just wouldnt work.

Currently, the INS play as you have suggested. With US and UK players being used up in crewing viechles, the INS have more free INF to roll around.

...mongol...

I agree with Mongol, but it would be great to see some weapon uniqueness.
(Edit: just don't make everything so single-sided)
