any ways. Why not give the MEC some Technicals? it would work really nicly in my map, and some others and give it more of a feel to some maps. Put a LMG on the back like a RPK and then only give it so much ammo ect. Then the rest of it can be used as fast transport. Im sure the MEC would use technicals as they wouldnt get much funding anyways.

also you could put a AT rocket on the back of them ect for diffrent 1s

What you all think?

Well Technicals are kind of insurgent-like and low tech. Isn't the MEC an organized army thats well-funded?

sure as heck better than the vodniks

be kinda funny if the ones with rocket launchers or whatever had like bull horns or something stupid like that over the front grill

yeah youd confuse them with texans

weel there are already those kinda vihecles in the Special Forces expansion pack maybe you coul "Steal" them from there?

I vote yes! Technicals. They fit well under urban maps.

The mesh is already ingame but the textures are kinda screwed.

ye there is 1 allready in BF2 with no texture or code (i think its uncoded) but it dosent look quite right i didnt think.

Ill get a SS of it soon.

If you can load some of the buildings too.. like the school house and shopping center... I think that would be kinda cool to look at.

MEC are a professional army. It would be like giving the Marines technicals. Slighlty out of place.

the vehicle is funny for sure but does completly not fit to the MEC equipment

yes but they wouldnt not have anything like as much funding as the USMC do. So they would probaly make some of these for a cheap asset to there forces.

How would know the MEC's funding? If they can afford Russia's latest export weapons, why would they resort to technicals? Lets stop stereotyping middle-east nations for being generally poor.

it depends i wouldn't be suprised if a real MEC used technicals to get around covertish

Technicals aren't going to do any better than the Vodnik in terms of special operations missions. In fact BF2 actually missed probably the most important feature on the Vodnik; that its amphibious.

Doubtful. The middle east is generally very wealthy. If most/all major Arabic states formed a coalition, I can guarantee you they're budget would be alot larger than that of the UK's. Technicals are generaly a cheap, easy to maintain, pickup with an old Soviet made, easy to aquire and maintain, machine gun. The main point of them is that they're extremly cheap. A MEC would have no use for them. Period.

i suppose i personaly thought that they would provide a home grown feel to the mod (if that makes sense??)

Really, well post a topic asking this mod to include it before i do

quick run rhino before he gets there
LOL

what if the MEC employed privatly funded mercenaries.. there was a story in the news about ex SAS Ghurkas and Royal marines veterens empoyed by the US as a "company X" thing where they use nackered old rifles and trucks like that one you posted. dunno i didnt read into it much
