To be able to stick a mirror on the end of my rifle would be useful.
Might keep my head a little longer!
Sorry for a flippant suggestion, having fun playing this mod & that's te best I can come up with so far.....

Serious balance issues would arise because the MEC is too poor to afford bubble gum.

Unless something is explained, I have this strong sense that this topic will be locked/moved.

Too late with those screenies!
Out of interest, what would the modern day equivelant be? I tried infantry+mirror etc on google before I posted this....

How did you take those screenies? Whenever I take screenies of films, the pasted image is messed up so that I can't copy the image - I get the media player interface, but the film itself is always blackened...

You need to adjust your graphics card or something. The best way to do it is to view your videos on Quicktime because Quicktime doesn't do it for some reason, plus it's easier to do a frame by frame.
I wish I was as good as sniping as good ol' Jackson.

I guess I should just stop using WMP then, I got both Quicktime & PowerDVD.
I thought it was for "security" reasons, like to stop "unauthorised reproduction blah blah", perhaps not then...

The modern equivalent would just be a "tactical mirror." They are a 3 to 8 inch diameter mirror attached to a telescoping handle (or expanding baton) and used to look around/above/under corners. They are most often associated with law enforcement/security, but the military uses them too.

Simple but effective! Can we have one then please devs, when the game slows down (gets good) these would be really handy.....
