Are we ever going to see the Army's digital camo implemented? I think its standardized now.....I think. If anyone plays Americas Army you know what I mean.

No, he means ACU.

ACU

Currently the US infantry is USMC, so they wear MARPAT.

MARPAT desert version

MARPAT woodland version (well, Bulle copies, anyway)

Personally I'd prefur to see the old DCU tri colour and BDU woodland, as it sticks out less in the day time and generally dosent look as silly as ACU (which is also horrible to look at). For night maps, sure, go ahead (ACU is supposedly brilliant at night) but I'm yet to see a daylight environment where it actually blends in.

ACU's blend in with nothing, and literally, I mean this, glow at night. Not kidding. The only thing ACU's blend in with is gravel, that's it.

I thought in bf2 it was already like that? Guess I was wrong

they do definitly have a weird color in that pic posted, but the canadian forces use cadpat as our everyday uniform and they blend awesome whether we use the green for forest area or the desert color for afghanistan it works awesome, i know because i use it everyday

That's not entirely true.

Yes, it was developed after it was discovered that the sand in Iraq had been replaced by 70s couches.

It would be nice if they implemented those camo's in PR since it is used now. So will we ever see it implemented?

I was playing airsoft with some guys that use ACU's it is almost laughable how badly they stood out. The new camo patterns dont seem to work that well, even Multicam which tends to glow in a woodland setting. It could be worse, the new Iraqi defense uniform are purple digital camo. :lol:

It would be nice it we could have real camo within the BF2 engine...but even grass stops being drawn by your gfx card at a distance..

Also keep in mind that there're many different camo patterns for different kinds of terrains and places. There's no one-camo-works-in-all-scenarios kind of...camo.

Seriously, at the very least the army should have had 3 digicam patterns, winter/forest/desert. Got to give the marines props for their designs, they actually work. And the digi design does break up your outline pretty damn good, its just the god damn color scheme of the ACU's that's idiotic. The best evidence of this...SF doesn't wear it.
