Open Window Humvees

Rezza · 01-15-2010, 03:55 PM

The idea comes from using my squad as a Humvee squad where just 1 man was able to keep firepower.The 50 cal.So what if the windows would be open and the players inside could hold their guns out of the windows and shoot.This would be a great innovation in PR for humvee squads to keep up effective fire for closing hostiles.

This already happens with insurgent cars, turning it into a paper tank covered in guns.

Why not allow marines to do it?

if u allow the marines to *shoot out the window* that means the gun must be available to use while in the seat, and due to bf2 mechanics, this means that same person could turn the vechile around and shoot out of a bit that is protected, his shots will go through the car but any1 trying to shoot him will be shooting the vehicle

Isnt there anyway to restrict people from using certain guns in such a position?

Firing the PR HATs inside a humvee would kill/mortaly wound those inside the humvee in real life due to backblast.

It would actually be possible, I think, to give them the faction's standard gun while in the vehicle so they could fire out the windows and this would stop makeshift TOWvees, for example.

So if you were US Army and in a humvee/transport truck, you would be given an M4, and that would be all you got. It'd be like in APCs where you have those windows you can shoot out of.

aye, i semi-suggested this a while back. i think some of us are forgetting that up until a while ago, you could fire out of the passenger seat in the transport/logistics truck, but then it was taken away.

the humvee could use a little extra firepower, not just the .50 gunner covering ALL the sectors.
