MEC and Militia vehicle camouflage.

Just wondering if anybody would agree with me if I said that both of these factions could do with some more distinctive camouflage for their vehicles to tell them apart from the rest of the gang (the US Army and Marine Corps, for example).

The MEC, for starters, have tonnes of camo patterns right now, from plain beige (MT-LB) to beige with brown (BRDM-2/T-72) to a muddy looking blend (BTR-60/BMP-3). Anyway, I think these are all a bit generic considering the MEC is a (largely) fictional faction and thus could have some snazzy fictional camouflage - also, it would be great to have them made a bit more distinctive on the battlefield.

While I don't want to say copy, ArmA 2's Takistani Army has some especially nice camo with the desert green on beige - a variation on that wouldn't look at all out of place. Also, a white MEC crescent moon on green would look sharp :-D

The same deal pretty much goes for the Militia. They're currently running with some really generic woodland camo that looks like it's taken a long spin through the kitchen blender and I think they'd look a lot better and more unique on the battlefield with something else.

Well I don't think different camo parents is so bad.Russian army got huge collection of camo.
For example.

Infantry got around 10+ camo parents without new versions.
And I don't like ArmA2's Takistani army - MECs looks like more technology advance thats taki.But would be awesome th put 2 vehicles - GAZ-2330 "Tigr"(AFAIK - Saudi Arabia will buy some) and M113A3.

I've been playing around with this and ... heh... Even if it was done I doubt they would accept it

Meanwhile the original BF2 MEC's vehicle camouflage pattern was based on what was in current use of the Jordanian Military for most part

Next the militia's camo, yes it is generic, but they are a generic eastern european militia for much part

Isn't the last one suppose to be the 'official' pattern since that what they rode in during the last 6 victory parades? with the only difference is them using yellow instead of khaki?

Most of parades are the worst source for camo you can find.

Yes but this pattern seems to be the only consistent one
