If you paid close attention to the screenshots of Muttrah City V2 it's not really the sandy, desert map like you're accustomed to for the MEC, so I have a question, will the MEC have a custom camoflauge for this map or will the MEC have the same tan uniforms that they've had for a while now?

they will keep there normal camo, they blend in quite well into most surroundings, thou the USMC do blend better.

i dont remember where , but i saw a grey "choco-chip" camo ( i think it was a pakistan camo ) that could do better in the urban battlefield that mutrah is :mrgreen: .

In order to have new uniforms, you need to make a new "faction".

So brits with desert-camo and brits with woodland-camo are different factions? Always wondered how this works.

Oh, and what screenshots?

lolz, talk about unneeded coding.

no like i said above, you can make it a map specific skin, like the woodland camo is in fact done by a map setting for its custom surfix to be "_woodland".

as far as i know, theres not many armies that use urban-specific camo. for example, the USMC in iraq still uses the desert camo in urban and city areas. the us army, uses a universal camo for every enviroment {ACU} i think an exception to this is the PLA they seem to have a camo for every situation, whether it be water camo {i guess for the marines} desert, woodland, and urban.

How about using the Oman army camo for MEC on Muttrah?

I can't find it but I know someone psoted a link in some thread to a website where they had all the camo patterns for almost every army in the world. Tried Googling it but all I get is irrelevant spam.

Okay...i know people may disagree with me, but personally, i dont like the MEC uniform, its just to...floressant! they are far too easy to see.

Look, the whole fictional history of the MEC is a Middle Eastern Coilition, so doesnt that mean IRAN is in there too? I mean, i know as of today, europe would like Nato to embrase IRAN but it hasnt happened yet! lol

How about taking their camo gear and replaceing the MEC "yellow" camo, you dont need to take all of IRAN's recourses as well, jeez they got a whole heap of stuff thats allready in game(cobra)

Heres a link of a youtube vid with music in the background and it quickly goes through a lot of Iran's weapons, and near the end theres a bunch of pics showing Iran's infantry camo. Warning:flashing images.

I personally don't see what was wrong with the VBF2 Uniform, it could work in some of the maps, only thing I don't like about it is the nice little MEC flag right on the flak jacket.

the vbf2 one was simply unrealistic and not a camo at all, the current is far better, but i would for example also like this one:

Personally the way I see it is the MEC has invaded Oman, then the coalition are liberating it but there is no real story line :p

Hey, if we ever get MEC urban garrison forces, then maybe we'll see urban cammo.

Does Lithium need to write the PR team a history of the Fictional MEC team?

Well I'm going to do it anyways.... :mrgreen: I'll enlist the help of my Sociology/History teacher tommorow when i go to school :twisted: ... that is if you want a history that Project Reality can stand by and say "This is why this happened" and such

And really... cause I have nothing better to do in my spare time for the next 6 weeks. So i can spend all that time writing and doing homework (except on weekends)
