During more relaxed games of Muttrah we would often have a convoy
of Fork Lift Trucks. I have also played the with HAT on the front so that you have an
un armoured TANK!
It was very funny.
Although i don't miss them at all, they were the nosiest vehicles on the map

Forklift/saw worked pretty well in some circumstances.

in my opinion all the cars on muttrah should be driveable

, but not respawn if they're destroyed.

it would be good if the fork lifts could lift crates up, then that would be realistic

moving them from base to where ever.
unstead of them appearing out the back of a truck lol

Our army back in '93 was organised yet you would see them driving around in Yugo's

Forklifts were great on Muttrah v1.
Those were my very first good memories from PR.
(the previous ones were from 0.3, not that good tho)

The ability to fire out of the dirt bike passenger seat was removed because people would throw out IEDs on the fly or do RPG drive-by's, the civi cars were removed due being used as ghetto transport and to run over people walking in the open (Muttrah) or made easy-to-kill and nonrespawanable (Ins maps), the forklifts were removed for the same reason, but HAT/SAW sniping from Littlebirds is still OK.
lolque?

US troops in Iraq prefer the forklift to the HMMWV.
