i noticed that the U.S Army and USMC in real life seem to hav more gear than in this mod. such as nv goggles and sunglasses and they sometimes like to actually wear their issued goggles. i wasnt sure if u could add things like that to the character models but if u could i think it would add more realism and variety to the mod. also would be cool and realistic to hav flashlights or ANPEQ boxes upon all Blufor weapons. i know it wouldnt be of much help but it would be cool and realistic. plus in most pictures of soldiers in acu it appears they seem more armored and thicker than marines, i was thinking maybe u could make the models for the U.S Army soldiers a tad thicker than marines. and last ive also noticed that most if not all m4's issued to the army have forward handgrips... so another possibility if u could add it.* i know im asking a lot but i would like to get feedback whether u could or not. im not in the military in any sorta way(planning on joining marines) so feel free to correct me if im wrong about anything i said. ;-)


*i know we had a special forces class with a foregrip for the m4a1 back in 0.8 but im obviously talking about the m4

Maybe he's thinking about the Spec-Ops G36C or SCAR, from vanilla.

USMC and USA are using reskinned vbf2 models. New ones are on the way. Accessories would be nice to have but it serves no purpose at all other than it looks good (the flashlight can't illuminate)...

The British SpecOps kit used a Diemaco that did have a vertical fore grip.

As for kit on the player models, it's stuff we inherited from vBF2.
