Ok with all the talk about these new civilian kits coming into play with their "you shot me you got -2 points" attitude. Ive found away to counter this as they do in RL.
The HMMWV's in Iraq have a sign on the back of them
Cation Stay Back 100m or you will be shot.

So if they got this close we could waste 'em. Would put a stop to people exploiting the fact that they are invincible to the opposition.
The sign should apply for all vehicles and say 5m of soldiers.

Opinions?

well, it makes the HMMV ugly.. lol... and i think its a bit childish... just egnore em... or ill just run em over.. lol... *imagins the bodies flying over his hood as he hits em*

btw.. i hope civies cant take flags,... that would be a pain in the ***

I vant to round zem up and put zem into camps to protect zem.

LOL nazi!!

well the photo seems to be taken from like 5m...
it say stay away 100m
at 5m I have trouble reading it...
so to read the sign that say do not get close, I have to get close to it?
is that what they came with to justify the civilian casuality?

ROFL. Best comment this week.

How are you saying they'll "exploit the fact that you cannot shoot them"? What will they do? You're allowed to run them over and knife them. That seems like enough for me.

They could act as operation get behind the darkies (south park movie) human shield lol.
I didnt no you could Knife them.

I think it would be sick if the usmc had zippties and if the civis got too close you cood zip tie them up and it would count as a death or something. Just imagine gettin pelted with rocks and you cant shoot them, just tie them up.

That's what the knifing's for.

WRT human shields, that's the idea. Right now USMC rolls into Al Basrah and just shoots everything that moves (especially A-10s and cobras). This way you wouldn't be able to do that. It would also allow insurgents to be made much weaker without worrying about balancing issues.

will civis be in the same vehicals as the insurgents? that would make for some interesting tank battles even if the civis cant shoot the guns... or even make it imposible to shoot cars that are shooting at you.

'What the hell does that say on that hummer!??'

'Dunno, better take a closer look'

I heard that there in no lose of points if civs are in cars.

Lmfao.

The only part of this that i'm not looking forward to, is the part where players with absolutly no care for their virtual lives, spawn as civs, and go hurling themselves at every nade or other form of explosive device set down by US/UK soldiers. I imagine it will be quite irritating.

I thought score doesn't really matter. You don't get unlocks in the mod, so why would gunning down a civilian be a problem? Will there be a penalty besides point loss?
