A new African Army? - Page 2

Bringerof_D · 05-06-2008, 08:17 PM

i really like this idea, i'd definetly like more deep jungle combat, some thick bushes to hide in, back in BF1942 FH i'd love to hide in bushes and pick people off as the come off Gold beach.

as well i'd think it would be easy to make this addition, just reskin the uniforms and vehichles, make the people african and use the AKs, i dont think the majority of troops are using any of the new weapons yet. not exactly cheap and as well the aks are more durable and cost effective

As far as I know a Canadian army is planned and the developement has started.

If there would be a african faction in PR it would probably be realistic to have most of the soldiers have AKs and other low budget weapons. But it´s not only the faction I care about also the terrain could be really intersting.
Like you said in BF 1942 one could still really hide in bushes, which is kinda rare now.

That would make every start of the game like South Park - "Roger that, buddy!", "Negative, friend!", "Understood, guy!"

I don't think this will be made into a community mod, BUT, I really like a thread like this, sort of like an imaginary faction for PR showing all the vehicles, weapons, and soldiers etc. Just the thread on it's own is quite interesting. Would be cool if someone would do a thread for like .. The Iranian army, or a realistic Chinese army.

I second that!

What about a civil war? I dont know if it is overstepping the line, but i only mention it, because it might provide a way to have AKs versus AKs instead of basic iron sites like insurgents versus higher technology based civilisations. I'm interested in seeing the same weapons used against each army.

Are you psychic? I've been cooking up ideas in my head for the Iranians, who they'd fight, where they'd fight. I even have a sat dish hooked up to catch some Iranian channels, which probably gave me the idea while surfing through 300+ channels.

Even saw footage of their army once, they were showing off their vehicles, troops and naval units. A group of soldiers exited LCAC-type craft and went prone one by one on the sandy shore. I knew then that would be one army meant for PR.

Iran vs MEC (the Iran-Iraq war on a smaller scale). Iran vs Insurgents (a shoe-in). Iran vs Militia (Russia's close, and the Militia may go through Georgia to smuggle "goods"). Iran vs PLA, a long shot, but PLA desert skins are in the works, all one needs is the proper scenario. At the current moment, it would not be realistic to pit Iran versus a Western coalition, although tension is present, no military action has been taken. Then again, no military action has been taken against China.

Once I learn more about the editor, and about the equipment themselves, I could do little prototypes to make the Iranian forces a little closer to becoming a virtual reality.

an african army is a brilliant idea. it helps expand current day story lines gives new maps , and gives the mec army another team to kick its ass
