Better skins for USMC

USMC has old skins from BF2 and that is not good. It would be more realistic if they'd had realistic vests like CIRAS or MOLLE basic. Greandier should also have 40mm greande vest. Sniper has a good skin, pilot too, but inf-riflemen looks like they are straight outta BF2.

Thats exactly right.
It takes alot of effort to make new skins and models, and the developers of PR already have their hands full with alot of other things, and I'm sure thats on the list. If they did everything the public suggested them to do, PR would be a very different game wouldn't it?
Instead of suggesting things like this, how about you pitch in and make them yourself?

Im pretty sure that the current PR USMC textures are not the same as those from vbf2. If you open them side by side in Photoshop you should be able to see several noticables differences. Off the top of my head, i know that the body armor is new.
Textures take quite a while to create. So if you really wanted to see new USMC skins ingame, the most effective way for that to happen would be for you to do them

what you are talking about is the Kit Geometry, not the skin/texture
the skin is not vBf2, and looks great, but the kit geometry is vBf2, to my understanding, has not been updated, becouse Dice actually got it right, and the kits look realistic
Edit: @Hangman, do you mind fixing your Signature, half the stuff you write vanishes off my screen

That's right. How about some old woodland vest. It would be cool.

Well the Army got an update I'm hoping someone here is going to step up to the plate and do the U.S.M.C. one too.

Just wait, I am sure someone is working on the geometries or will be working on them.
PR is evolving all the time, you just have to be patient.

You're not reading what we are saying. The developers are perfectly capable of saying 'this is outdated, lets upgrade it or make something new', they don't need someone to tell them that.
Currently, the USMC use coyote tan webbing right? So why give them something old and outdated ingame? PR represents forces who use what they are most likely to be using in the field, or what that faction IRL wants their soldiers to have.
