Uh, Hamas in PR? Isnt that a bit "edgy"? Most of the opposing forces are rather fictional, yet the Hamas really is an extremists group.
Hearing that I kinda feel like putting a schoolmap into CS (exaggerated).

I hope german forces will make it into one of the next releases - wanna hear my MG3 roaring over the battlefield

Though, the Hamas are very similair to the insurgent and militia faction

There is 4 nato if you think about. American Army, American MARINES, Canadian, Britain.

Plus, Poland is probably the next furthest along community mod.

Wrong. THe US Army and US Marine Corps. count as one in that case. The only difference it that the US.M.C. will be used on amphibious attack maps and the US.A. will be used on land attack maps.

Eh? The only entirely fictional one is the MEC. The PLA is most definitely a real army - as definite as they don't do any liberating of people, the Militia are based on real blackmarket arms dealing groups, and the Insurgents are based on real Islamic insurgent groups - some of which I seem to remember are related specifically to certain Insurgent groups.

Pity none of the community mods are gonna make .8, I put alot of money on there being a patch of .8 with loads of extra content though.

Also I think the whole "DEVs taking over community mods" thing is merely gonna be a quality control and balance thing, not them dictating in full how they should be run and what they should contain.

Ehh, NATO is an allience, not a stand-alone force.

Well if there happen to be a fourth allied faction after the Canadian, it will certainly not be Mexico loll so yeah, it will be European and most likely German becuz there is no France community mod unfortunately...

Don't forget Russia as Opfor (well it isen't really Opfor, more on its own side)
