Project Reality Forums

I dunno if this has ever been brought up before, seeing as I'm relatively new and don't troll the forums, but is it possible to put wire cutters in the game? For instance, the UK, US and MEC Spec ops and/or engineers have a set of wire cutters. With these they can go up to an intact bit of fence, stand and click LMB for a moment and then the fence breaks open. You could use the cut fence model that is already in-game for that.

I had the idea when me'n a squad where running around a fence, looking for a way in. It occurred to me that at least one guy in a squad could realistically carry wire cutters.

Yeah maybe like 5 swipes from a knife will break down the razor wire. Something that takes a little bit to do though...maybe you have to be standing or whatever.

SLAM/C4 ,it might sound a little but much more effective

Vehicles like tanks, apc's and medium support vehicles like Hummers should be able to destroy them, not only drive trough them imo.

They do destroy them by ramming them and driving over

Hmm... Not when I tried to ram some barbwire with my Type98 tank this morning.

I drove over the razor with my warrior and boooom! I went 20ft in the air

actually no razorwire irl is high tensile strength steel and can withstand a blast like that.

Yeah, so we need t3h bang4l0r3 blad3 fr0m future weaponz.

I think blasting apart wire covered in razors is a bad plan to begin with.

You should be able to lift it up with your bare hands and not bleed, Rambo style In fact we should get a map where one army is Rambo and only Rambo and he has to fight 63 people although to make it fair the other team gets tanks choppers etc and Rambo only gets his bow, actually that'd be a bit unbalanced, he just gets his knife... seriously though wire cutters would be useful, it's annoying having to run around fences

Not true, we used to always use a shaped c4 charge to blow open triple strand wire when I was in the Army. It's SOP.

The M-9 bayonet and scabbard in the Army are designed to be assembled together to make a set of wire cutters. They actually work better than true wire cutters because the knife is much denser metal. Unfortunately it makes the knife near impossible to sharpen.

Im surprised no one has brought this up, search

Sorry I'm late, what did I miss? Oh yeah...

Use the knife for the wire cutter. The sheath hads a knob on the end which you insert the blade for a wire cutter.

i was talking about in game, theres a explosive device which works as a "Cutter" rather then a big explosion.. they use those when they take down old Bridges for an example
