MEC forces

Outlawz7 · 05-05-2007, 02:01 AM

I was wondering....everyone knows, that MEC is a made-up bedtime story from EA...so why do we still have it in the mod...if you look at Middle East, I doubt, they would all get together and make a coalition/union...
Most of the countries are neutral (U.A.E.) or friendly (Saudi Arabia) or dont even have an army (Iraq, Afghanistan) or they "purchased" their forces from the West (Egypt, Saudi Arabia)...As said, most of the hardware and forces would be made up from the Iranian army...so why dont we have the Iranian army instead of MEC?

Just a suggestion

And who would the Israelis fight, US? I also think it should be Iran instead of MEC. If Bush gets his way it´ll probably be a reality soon..

On the other hand, since when is China involved in any fighting with US and UK?

The "Middle Eastern Coalition" will do nicely. It covers most bases for an Arab opponent in this game.
No need to go Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon or any of the other nations down there.

Also having China as an opponent in PR is as realistic as the MEC forces.
Even though the MEC does not exist, neither does an armed conflict with China.

Edit: unless you count Chinas intervention in Tibet...

So, if MEC is to be removed for reasons of realism, then so should China.

Well China is a growing country, better economy, so who knows? Might be a threat to the US?

Best laughs so far.. Describe something that isnt considered to be a threat to US? Playstation? Oh wait, it is...

You know, I like the current factions. I dont really care among which nation I am fighting, I just enjoy the diversity of weapons.

you just wait a bit, the MEC will be along anytime now

On the other hand: a wise man once said:
the Arab countries agree on one thing, to not agree with each other

Please forgive me but he couldn't have been very wise if he said that...
