I was wondering if you guys would be upgrading the bad guy teams. I mean I see a lot of changes for the USMC and British but I think that it would be cool to have some gadgets in there for the MEC and China that might help with a lot of the team switching in game. Maybe making a new vehicle for them. Or a couple of weapons. I would love to see that just cause when I play MEC it is the same ole same ole and thats cool but some variety would be cool.

Only gripe I have with going MEC is the G3, so I just use the grenadier kit. To be honest I dont see alot of team switching.

Well tell me where your playing and I will too. Cause I see it alot. But dont you agree it would be fun to see a lot more variation to the other factions?

yes, they are getting an update - also, i wouldnt call them the bad guys
china is getting all new assault rifles with the next release, some versions with a scope and stuff (those type 56 or whatever they are called, there is already a thread about this)
mec is probably going to be updated too, though i think not in 0.5 (i cant remember right now), just search for the threads regarding the 0.5 release

hahaha. If anything, we're the bad guys. Like Aus Sniper01 said, we're fucking invading in near enough every map. All maps take place in China/Middle East. Just once i'd like to see some pacific action like Wake Island but good for AAS where PLA attack a U.S Island.

I think the next few releases will make MEC/PLA better. Hopefully, right now there's a hell of alot of teamswitching. Although there's nothing better than beating the M4 noobs when PLA/MEC.

MEC is getting, eventually, G3 with optics, and with a grenade launcher for the grenidier kit.

i dont know, i´ve got to admit, i hated the pla in pre-0.4 versions, dont know exactly why - but now, i just grew to love with the ak-47, kicks *** in my opinion :)

Good God no! I detest that map. It's the most unbalanced, crappy, rape filled map they ever released.

If we're gonna make a pacific map, I'd like to see an invasion of LA, hehe, PLA against the Hippies, would be a bit unbalanced towards the hippies.

just a thought, it was brought up in this thread that you would like to see a US defending map. how about in the future a map made on North American soil, or even Europe.


again just a thought.

I hate the G3 what a bad weapon. Um couldnt we just have them all have ak 47 variants or AK101's or something that we now these forces are going to use. Where is Ak 74 when you need it. And yeah why isnt there an AK 74 in this game??

I like the G3 but really it is time for the AK 74.

And as for Wake Is. pluhleeze...no...

The most obvious scenario for a showdown with the Red Chinese would either be an invasion of S. Korea by a combined Red Chinese/N. Korean force or an amphibious invasion of Taiwan by the Red Chinese. Now those would be interesting.

As for equipment I have really one one gripe about the MEC/Chinese equipment

And I'm sure you all know what that is;

VODNIK

Yes, those top heavy beasts have been responsible for one too many thwarted assault, stymied before it even got going thanks to those kings of the rollover, the Vodnik. And jumping out and getting squished doesn't help either...

if at all, the vodnik should be improved - a bit spiced up armor (the thing has bulletproof tires lol) and amphibious capability ^^

I dont care what they claim, sometimes on that server i get team switched BY AN ADMIN(when i have slogged it out as the MEC the last round), only for one of them to switch over and Use the NERF detector light gun(AKA, M4). This has happened MANY times on MAY servers.

I thought they used the type 56 stuff? and if they are changing, NOOOOOOO!!!!!
I love the chinese dusty, crusty AK-47. It was a nice contrast to the G3 and AK-101. It was fun to fire from the hip, escpecialy in the Human wave charges, where the only thing heard in your headphones is your squadleader shouting FOR CHINA!!!!! and the guy beside you CHINA WILL GROW LARGER!!!!.

Well, the Vod has a sensor that tells you when a SRAW is pointed at it....Unfortunately, that doens usualy work against the likes of RPGs and SMAWs. And YES, make her amphibious, but slow, like women in winter(when it is in water).

...mongol... (AK-47 FTW!!!!!!!!)

I must be the only person who really likes the G3. Great take down power.

HOW DARE you all bash the g3!!!!!!!!!!

its the best gun in the game apart from the m4 which will be nerfed like hell.

the g3 is better on single shot then the aks and the m16s and has auto which is better then the crappy, 3 round vanishing burst of the m16s* ok maybe the ak auto might be a little better but the g3 makes up for it in precision assult sniping.

+g3 and anti personel kit = mini sniper, damaging accurate rifle + binoculars ~ a sniper kit.


i used to hate the g3 but then i thought, maybe if i think before i shoot instead of think and shoot at the same time and it works, just take that extra second to line up and bang you can drop someone in 2-3 shots.

edit:

m16*: is it just me or when you fire a burst with any of the american rifles 2 of the 3 bullets disapeer and the one remaining goes off course and liek hits them in the arm? i find the burst on those rifles totally swag. It should be a little more like the g36e where all the bullets hit- just maybe not as powerful or as fast.

the ak will be replaced by the (HECK I DONT CARE ABOUT THE NUMBER^^) type56, which is chinas actual assault rifle

uh? the burst is teh kill on the m16 - especially in cqb it is very usefull and most times, all three of my bullets hit (and the g36 and the m16 fire the same bullets ;) )
