1. jackal and all the british UOR kit has been suggested, search ect.
2. the scope on SAW - can be that they dont have a image for the susat SAW and have the Eclan one instead, could be that they feel it will be not worth the effort as scopes are near enough same. and various other reasons why there is a Eclan on the british SAW...... i imagine its still WIP .....
4. SAW rarer than sniper ?? ....... i dont know the specific number but SAW's are every squad at least (like PR now)

DEVS - great looking stuff!

please don't start going on about Jackals and Mastiffs, they've already been suggested a thousand times

stop jumping to conclusions thats a very small picture of the SAW from the side, who knows what scope it is.

Looks like good changes, with one medic there is a chance of killing a sqd and having them stay down for once in a while. instead of having revive fests all the time because you missed one of the 3 medics.

-i love you guys...

This is Great!!!! GOOD JOB
Say No to vanilla medics again!

Great changes guys, especially the officer kit with choice to choose between scope and irons. Keep it up!

The USMC and British do need their armoury expanded to realisticaly accommodate. Those trucks the British are currently using just look out of place.

Okay they probably about 2 SAW to each Sniper out in Afgahn with the brits, but the L86A1 is the prime support weapon, which is used as a marksman kit not support in PR.

I am liking the Squadleader having no scope options.

Medic thingy: Yeh good for clan matches **** for pubbing. Stops medic teams and random lone medics but it severly injures squads in PR pub.
But i say all sacrifices in the sake of reality but we NEED and this is unanimous that we need a iron AR option. BTW that Give up/Call Medic doesn't put up a symbol for medics it only uses the sound clip.

But yeh the medic thing is a bummer but i think itll be accepted along with all the other add-ons by people that are on PR for the very reason PR was created.

It does

Also, Medics are way too spammy at the moment, i fully agree with the decision to restrict it to 1 per squad.

sources please? as i believe this to be incorrect ... the LSW is now a marksmen weapon IRL (source)

as for the SAW to sniper ratio... ill leave that up to some one with more knowledge, but im pretty much 100% that there is alot more SAW's than snipers in a infantry battalion or any level, whether it be platoon or regiment.

Thats just the RAF regiment, all internet sources just say it is designed as a support weapon, and even on the RAF website, it has support weapon in its name. The special barrel is used to disipate heat quicker on full auto mode then the L85, and has extra hand grip rear tobe rotated freely, in the words of another website, the modern Bren gun.

Anyway, as far as the SAW goes, I don't mind it being the British weapon, just scoped, I've not seen that with Brits before, if you want scoped support, L85 is your gun.

I'm sure our currently serving British Military Advisors would jump in if something was fundamentally wrong.

This is probably goign to be the best feature of 0.9

One medic is not enough. In most times the medic always dies. Pls change to 2 medics per squad.

the LSW was designed as a support weapon (LSW - light support weapon) they then realized it was rubbish in this role and made it a DMR .

as for SAW, this video here :

YouTube - 9 Plt PB Cupples afghan 08

is of the current tour, and has alot of the urgent operation requirement kit . (acogs, rails ect) and the majority of SAWs have sights on. also at the end of the video, its the perfect chance to see a real sections weapon compositions , note the SAW in each (and the masses of UGL's)

No.

Judging with the amount of people complaining about it, it proves how people was overusing this kit. New kit limitation are great.

=QTF= always uses 1 medic/squad.

No more medic squad.

Thank you Devs, absolutely fantastic news.

Always been waiting for an Iron Sight Officer variant and the medics in PR at the moment are waaay too spammy, 1 per squad is definitely enough. Again with the SAW this is without a doubt the correct way to go, light machine guns are the backbone of any infantry squad and now I can always make sure my squad has one, brilliant.

Once again, thankyou.
